Ben Johnson held out an extra year or two for the Bills job, and they were like "No, we're busy banging our head into the same brick wall."
Christ, could you imagine Allen with Johnson as HC? Whew!

No, you're thinking with your feelings. Manning and Elway didn't win until they got a new head coach. Stafford didn't win until he went to the Rams. Those are the two ways Allen can win, because it's not happening with McDermott. That is abundantly clear at this point.
💯. At some point its got to be realized a change has to be made.

The true problem is McDermott isnt going to hire an established, strong OC that could make this offense really work.
Why?
They would end up being a challenge to him. Thats the reality of the situation.

The reason you use mesh is it sets open window reads and they're all really rapid. So you know - this guy uncovers first, then this guy, then finally that guy - and this guy over here is the hot.
But if none of them uncover in rhythm (because the opponent knows you're running mesh) - they know once you move off read 1, you don't have time to go back to read 1, so i no longer have to cover him, then you end up with these busted plays where no one is open. There's plenty of ways to beat man coverage beyond mesh or rub routes.
The challenge with the construction of these plays is always going to be proper diagnosis of coverage, identifying when players will uncover, and knowing when you have to get the ball out. Plus route running will help, but it's more of an issue of timing. When you run a timing based offense the ball goes to the same place at the same time. If you're running double moves to shake tight man coverage, that takes more time regardless of how fast you are.
Part of the challenge buffalo is running into on a lot of scramble drills also reflects on the route's they're running. They run too close together so buying time doesn't create space since there will be multiple defenders in the area of bunched receivers.
End of the day - if they're getting home with 4 THAT consistently, you have to change your approach.
And quit being so damn predictable

Steelers loss to the Bears means they have to win at hime verses the Bills. Which means they will want it more. Which means they will have more energy and be more physical than the Bills who don’t seem to get up for games. Which means the Bills will lose.
They will want it more and we aren't good on the road under McDermott.
Ill guess and say on defense they will jam our WR's at the LOS and blitz. Just guessing though...

That assumes you trust the organization to make changes, or at least make them effectively.
I don't see Beane or McD going anywhere realistically. It wouldn't surprise me at all if we miss the playoffs, end up with a pick in the upper teens, and we take a will linebacker.
Sadly you are right.

Oh I'm with you, I think it's much more likely we don't make the playoffs than we make a deep run.
I was just trying to say this: I want us fans to be wrong, I want McD/Beane/Brady to be right and hold up the trophy and for me to eat crow. I'll happily do that.
My thoughts are, what's better for Josh and the franchise? Lose badly now, miss the playoffs and make changes OR keep the status quo and limp into the playoffs and lose badly?

Elway also got to play in a weak AFC in the 80's.
They did pull off a win against the strong Packers for a ring.

This is what I've been saying as well. Long developing pass plays, and not bringing in extra blockers when the o line is getting their @sses handed to them. How does Pegula not get pissed about protecting his $300 million investment?
McDermott is going to lose the locker room if he continues to choose loyalty to staff over loyalty to players. He's letting Josh get killed out there.
He is a Billionare and this is his hobby. He makes money even if the seats are empty, BUT he knows fans will flock to the stands even of this team is 2-15. So why would he be motivated to do anything?
If Josh left tomorrow he is still everything listed above, and he will still make money, and fans will still flock to the stadium.
3 minutes ago, Bruffalo said:Yeah, for better or worse they doubled down on this offensive philosophy, that was magnified when they decided to not make any moves at the trade deadline. I hope they win the Super Bowl, but I bet it will end up biting them in the butt.
I expect we'll see more of the bipolarity of the offense for the remainder of the season. They'll probably have just as many hot games as they have duds.
Whether or not there will be consequences for this (particularly Beane/McD) remains to be seen I guess. I'm not optimistic.
They aren't winning the superbowl. I get fans won't accept it, but I still doubt we make the playoffs. IF we do, its 1 and done.

Josh Allen is John Elway, other than Elway got to Superbowls being Elway, but he has the 3 amigos which helped.
When Dan Reeves was gone, Shanahan was brought in. Word has it Elway didnt want to switch from his gun slinger style and convert to WCO. Further word is he complained to owner Pat Bowlen and Pat said tough!
Elway goes on to winning 2 superbowls.
Its time for a change across the board and Josh needs to change and further develop himself. He is already showing signs of not being as fast or agile and we have all seen guys with playstyles like Josh fall off the cliff quickly.
Nothing changes this year, but relying on him to "Do Josh things" as he has in the past, is quickly coming to an end.

If Brady was getting fired it would have been done this weekend.
They will keep subjecting Josh to this BS the rest of the year.

You're putting the Bills with 7 wins and the Raiders with 2 wins in the same boat? The Bills literally have a winning record, so I think the owner clearly does care about winning.
We have a winning record because the GM lucked out on picking the right QB

And everybody who says he's about to retire because he lost his passion listen to the speech he gave Wyoming football
This dude is football.. his wife did not take away the drive.. the losing does not take away the drive
He is the epitome of a competitor who is going to always bounce back.. and he's going to retire in Buffalo
We will see.

You guys are being ridiculous pondering why the Bills don't unearth gems like "Will Anderson or Jalen Carter" in the draft.
Those guys were the best defensive prospects in their respective drafts.
Anderson went 3rd overall because of QB's and Carter was only available at 9th because of the fatal car accident he might have caused and refusing to work out. Despite those enormous red flags he went 9th.
The Bills haven't had the ammo to trade up that high since the year they got Allen.
I want Beane to do better but I don't expect him to find the 1 of 1 in drafts when he is drafting around 30 every year.
Funny KC wins superbowls but finds these gems. Drafting high is a BS excuse.

I'm sitting here watching all these games today , guys like Pickens, AJ Brown, Xavier worthy, Devonta Smith, Tee Higgins
All making insane game changing plays. It really is eye opening in a disturbing way. Why on God's green Earth does Beane & McDermott not want this????
If Allen takes these guys to the super bowl, yes I'm saying it right now he's the greatest QB that's ever lived.
I couldn't even enjoy football today seeing all these massive plays wide receivers are making. It makes me feel sick 🤢
Even just watching Dallas as a roster look way better than ours makes me realize how bad beane has been the past number of years.
It's eye opening and it pisses me off
Egos are too big and they think they are right now matter what.

Why do we just continue to add these guys back? I’m tired of seeing our old retreads being signed he isn’t good, he’s never been good even in his “prime”. We invest in DLine every year yet here we are again with Jordan Phillips and Shaq Lawson for their 18th time in this roster.
It didn’t work the first 17 times we these guys, guess what it won’t work the 18th
Because this regime just cant help themselves. Just keep doing the same thing over and over. They are the literal definition of insanity.

Dion is a fat tub of goo who’s too high on his own quasi-celebrity and has lost the fire like most of this milk toast team. I’d cut him this offseason and get someone in there who actually has a pulse and doesn’t get his QB killed giving up on every play after 2 seconds. The guy is the poster child for complacency and that’s what this team is - complacent. Good enough for the owner so let’s just cash some checks and yuck it up after a lead leading 9th false start on the 4th and gotta have it down. The Shnowman needs to STFU and start playing better
He needs to go. We need more discipline and less foo foo feom the ownership down
Imho everyone has become complacent. We need a shake up.

Yes, as I posted one page ago, OL Coach Aaron Kromer and TE Coach Rob Boras have both been NFL Offensive Coordinators.
QB Coach Ronald Curry has not.
It's hard for me to believe that Kromer or Boras could do a worse job than Brady.
