Coach Tuesday

I think there is a rational view of the world that would like to see the Bills start stringing together four solid quarters of football so that they have a shot at going far in the playoffs. Turning the ball over three times, committing multiple personal fouls and giving up a Hail Mary all in the second half of a conference game does not set the right tone for playoff football. Glad they won. Felt awfully close for a blowout.

Re: the officiating, wasn't happy with it but it was a chippy game from the jump yesterday, Chargers' defenders were throwing elbows to helmets at the end of each tackle, etc., and I suspect the officials told both sides to take it down a notch. The Bills didn't get that memo and were penalized. Need to do a better job of reading the room.

Every week we get a "hear me out" thread (but 50% of the time it's "here me out" because the OP is illiterate/drunk/both). Chances are if you have to say "hear me out" you're already behind the 8 Ball with your take... The Cardinals game was supposed to be the "sloppy win" game until they found a way to lose it. This team needs to start figuring out how to keep its foot on the gas pedal for four full quarters. Interesting article in the Athletic today about what went wrong in Detroit. Synopsis: Patricia and Quinn bought too much into the Patriots' philosophy of waiting for the other team to make a mistake ("More NFL games are lost than won") and as a result, they'd play passively and let opponents back into games. Over and over again. McD needs to make sure he doesn't fall into the same trap. It's trending that way. Play to win. Don't wait for the other team to hand you the win - go take it for yourselves.

Inexplicably into the endzone several times. He’s a bonehead.

Maybe, but wait until you see clips of his technique against Bosa.

Dawkins was horrendous today. Edmunds, Klein, Roberts, Taron J, Beazers

Allen was under too much pressure and wasn’t comfortable all day. He’s been given a ton of time to throw all year but the Chargers today (mostly Bosa but also Tillery) weren’t having it. Just imagine if Ingram had played. There is no excuse for letting a great passrusher dominate an entire game like that. On one of his sacks they forgot to even block him. The offense was a sloppy mess all day and it’s definitely McD’s worst effort coming off a bye (he’s usually got his team ready after the rest week). Just not a great NFL product on the field today - pretty much across the league. Lots of sloppy plays, weird officiating, the announcers sound tired, it’s been a long year and people are tired from having to socialize a bit after months of isolation (my theory).

Not gonna be too funny on draft night...

Worst game ever.

This is the Dumb Coach Super Bowl.

Garbage game

This is like every Bills game.

Josh isn’t the type to draw unsportsmanlike penalties - he’s clearly fed up with all of the cheap shots today.

Mongo false started and then missed his block on the screen pass. Wtf. Terrible guard play today.

HORRIBLE series.

Refs need to learn to throw the flag when a defender runs by and elbows his head.

Please block Joey Bosa. You idiots.

They gameplanned for their $20M left tackle to block him. Isn’t working.

Wasn’t a turnover...

Dion Dawkins should return his game check today.

Neither of these backs can accelerate. They drafted the same exact back two years in a row.

This run-heavy game plan seems perfectly moronic.

Not blocking anything up front. This is a disgraceful effort post-bye.

This game sucks.

Coaches not ready for this game, but not really surprised. Lynn owns McD.
