I watched that Gruden video the other day all about the game plan card the coaches hold and he commented how they keep putting more and more info on that and keep making the font smaller so coaches are having a harder time reading it. Maybe that's what happened here??

OK, but you're not getting Brown in mid season. Even after the season, would be a debate whether Pats need to give permission as that may be considered a lateral move. But certainly at YE, there are many more options and have all off season to implement things. The last time it was easy to fire Dorsey mid season as had a good backup coach on staff with a decent amount of play calling experience, don't think we have anyone like that currently. So even if you find someone presently not employed, other than a guy like Daboll who has a fair amount of familiarity with the Bills offense, doubtful anyone would improve things much. It would be more step backwards, may as well tell Allen to call his own plays. And Daboll is a mess who will be interesting a YE what jobs he's even offered after everything that happened in NY.

There's many people here blame McD for the rift between him and Daboll, keep hearing it's McD's ego. There may be legit things you can blame McD for, but this isn't one of them. I read multiple stories about his time in NY and this guy is a hot mess and seems to have anger management issues and can't get along with anybody. Seems like he can't handle pressure well. When the team is winning he's fine, but when things go bad, he loses it.

I questioned if McGovern is hurt. In a contract year, it's not unheard of for players to hide injuries as can affect their next contract value. I really wonder if was concussed as he just is plain missing blocks, like he's can't think quick enough what he should do? It's one of three things; his legs, his legs, or suddenly got hit with that old age element? But he looks lost out there. In the weekly BN column by the ex QB, he has shown a few complete misses by him. Add to that the Bills have drafted a number of young lineman, need one of them to step in purely from a cost standpoint.

True that may be the difference is the turnovers. Recall over the summer even reading one article that predicted the Bills wouldn't do as well this year as their turnover ratio from last year wasn't likely sustainable. I guess they were correct. That may also explain why they are still #2, but look much worse than last year. TO likely also result in better starting field position too. That may have also increased the Bills sense of security in the "everyone eats" concept that bringing in Palmer and Coleman having one year under his belt, plus Kincaid recovered, they'd be fine with their passing game..

Based on post game comments by McD, it's mostly all on Brady. Here's what I don't understand. The Bills WR were not great last year, but we still had one of the top offenses in leage, Allen won MVP, it wasn't just because of his running ability. While many wanted more improvements for 2025, seemed most felt the WR group was better this year than last with the addition of Palmer and Coleman having a year more experience. The Coleman part hasn't worked out, but even there, statistically not any worse than last year. Hollins was good last year , but he is far from a #1 WR. Kincaid also has been improved. So what happened?

But that's in dog years!

I'm sure people on the west coast would love a 3:30 start time.

Yeah but tough for a guy drafted that high to accept in year 2. Hollins was a 4th round pick, so much easier for him to understand he'll need to play ST and wasn't drafted top be a starter right away.

The problem here is the majority of posters think with their emotions and not their brains. How many posts there were 3 years ago ripping S Brown and stating the Bills need to get rid of him. Many of the same posters 2 years ago were saying how much of an improvement there is from Bernard over Edwards, now they want to git rid of Bernard and ripping Beane for extending him. There's many other players here fit similar profile of people here having no patience. Yes does it look like they are correct on Coleman and were on Elam, but I'd be willing to bet anyone that I'd be correct more than they would about which player will suck if I can take every player in the league as many more players fail than ever succeed. I didn't see it posted here, but one rumor I heard Coleman's being benched tonight because he doesn't want to learn to play ST which where he is on the depth chart right now, he needs to.

#1 I do wonder if Allen would have made that same pass that resulted in the first int, if he wasn't in the endzone as he realized if he didn't get rid of the ball it was safety. I'd hope if were say on the 5 or 10 yard line he'd have taken the sack rather than throw a pass like that?? #6 I read Harston played like 2 more plays than White did

I wore the correct Bills shirt. Last week I made the mistake of wearing one they had lost an earlier game in

Is Moore a FA?

Don't believe last year he was actually inactive though. Thought it was like he didn't play the first half or something. Making him inactive for disciplinary reasons would be a new low for him.

Maybe also Latu as could better use Gilliam as 3rd TE and if they still want an extra blocker, put Anderson on the field as eligible. Considering Shakir is probably not 100% think they'd keep Coleman active as backup slot option if needed.
