I don't think I saw it last night, but I've seen other games where McD is actively talking on the headset and covering his mouth with a playsheet while the team is on OFFENSE. It suggests to me that he is more active in the play calling vs. just delegating to Dorsey. I could be wrong, but I think his nature is to be very controlling. That said, they should still move on from Dorsey....the sooner the better.

So let me get this straight. We score with ease the opening drive and then slow down the tempo and style to experiment with schemes. This might explain why the offense at beginning of games are moving the ball, only to become stagnant for 2 1/2 quarters with three and outs. Then in the fourth quarter we go uptempo because we r behind and then by magic start moving the ball again and start scoring. Got it. Genius. And silly me thought you continue to use what works for you until the opposing team has adapted. If not you continue to exploit those weaknesses. SMH. No wonder this offense looks so bipolar. Must be tough as a player to find any sort of rhythm sometimes.
It's the McD way.....fix something that is NOT broken (up tempo successful first drive) with something that is not working (slow it down, complimentary mumbo jumbo) because he is smarter than anybody else.

So a supposed "defense" coach knows what's best for his offense? IMHO - McD is an excessive control freak who doesn't know his own limitations. As much as I want the Bills to replace Dorsey, it won't matter unless they replace McD as well.

Prior to this year, Sean McDermott has done the following in the first 3 rounds of the draft:
2022:
Round 1: Defense
Round 2: Offense - James Cook
Round 3: Defense
2021:
Round 1: Defense
Round 2: Defense
Round 3: Offense - Spencer Brown
2020:
Round 2: Defense
Round 3: Offense - Zack Moss
2019:
Round 1: Defense
Round 2: Offense - Cody Ford
Round 3: Offense - Devin Singletary
Round 3: Offense - Dawson Knox
Big free agent dollars:
DaQuan Jones
Von Miller
Expensive defensive re-signings:
Jordan Poyer
Micah Hyde
Taron Johnson
Ed Oliver
People might want to give McDermott a pass on injuries? Ok ... well the Bills spent a TON of draft capital on defense and a TON of free agent dollars on defense as well. For such a defensive genius, you'd think we wouldn't be ranked bottom in the league.
IMHO - this is the root of our current problems (besides coaching). Our drafting has been HORRIBLE in terms of impact players on D. Bad scouting? Bad GM? Bad McD judgment? I don't know who is the driver behind all these bad picks, but we have had to depend on FA signings to help cover our poor drafting.

I don't expect any changes until the off-season. That said, does anybody have a feel for how often an OC or DC is replaced mid season in the NFL history?

WTF is "complimentary" football anyway? Josh is even saying it now.

McDermott is 100% to blame...no way he's coaching this team next year! He took the blame for defense and defended an OC that couldn't coach at the high school level!
Beane is also accountable

We find new ways to beat ourselves. Whether it's Josh, Gabe, Knox, Kincaide. We just beat ourselves down over and over. The defense is overrated and overmatched right now and the offense and special teams aren't helping them.
Overmatched maybe (due to injuries), but I don't think it's overrated....there no delusion it is good at all

Taking too much time between snaps

Man I know we are all disappointed and disgusted. Think about this we are literally down 7 starters on defense. That cannot be overcome
It does not help my heartburn with our offense though

Tee is so explosive....we don't have that

Horrible first quarter coaching put the team in a hole , and they have played about even since.
This is not a new problem though

Well that sucked....nobody touched the ball either

Diggs was open there

Dorsey calls the plays, Allen isn't going to hurry up without the go ahead.
I wish he would listen to Diggs instead.

Does McD kind of just spectate during offense? Still confused by this whole dynamic
Not to my eye....it looks like he's telling Dorsey what to do each play...kind of

We've had bad teams in the past, but those teams had less talent. This team's offensive woes start with coaching and lack of creativity.

What a complete lack of imagination on this offense...I've seen more creativity in high school games. Fire Dorsey and McD if he is telling Dorsey what to do

McDermott answers why we stopped uptempo offense

As I heard on a podcast somewhere, McD is the modern day version of Matty Schottenheimer and/or Chuck Knox. He will only get this team so far, but never to the very top.
