McDermott can't help but get conservative on offense, but then expects his depleted defense to hold the fort. That's not smart.

He's morphing into "Skelaltor" Dick Jauron.

McDermott came that close to losing because of his cautious streak. He doesn't trust his offense, and thinks his defense is better than it is.

Snakebit.

A lot of wagers are riding on this play.

If we give up a TD

Defense needs to start getting to Baker. A little too prevent right now

Wow. When did Green Day get old?

Is it a rule that we have to get a flag on every punt?

Whoops

What's stopping them all night?

So Dorsey has managed to suck his way to 300 yds and 24 points in 34 minutes.

You didn't get my point. I was mocking the tendency of people to blame Dorsey when plays go badly. The joke was Dorsey called for a tipped pass.

500-yards-of-offense team

Yeah! That play call to throw the tipped pass sucked.

Me too but I'm on fiber.

What do you think PSLs are?

I would have asked Chan to stay on as OC.

So I keep hearing the Bucs can't run. So why am I worried about Tampa Bay running up 300 yards rushing tonight?

Joe Marino is no Josh hater but he calls things as he sees them. And I think his takes are better than most because he at least gives a reason for his takes, unlike most drunk callers to the 'GR postgame. The thing with Josh seems to be a combination of things: 1) McDermott limiting his natural instincts 2) having played a Giants team that knew Josh's tendencies and 3) giving that plan to Bill Belichick. Again, Josh had some bad throws. But his teammates all shared the goat horns this week. Drops, penalties, wrong patterns, then the defense getting led by the nose by Noodle-arm MacCorkle. Do you realize the Pats ran the exact same play at the goal line to win the game? They saw they beat Taron Johnson on that throw the first time. Only a bad pass prevented a TD. So they ran that play again with Gesicki. How do you let that happen?

We keep talking about Dorsey but when I watch the games I'm seeing bonehead mistakes killing drives. Was it on Dorsey that the Knox TD was called back? I don't think play calling is the issue. It's playing with your head on straight.

Josh wasn't his best, but when he left the field the Bills were winning by 3. Josh didn't let the Patsies march down for a TD.
