no adjustments, bad penalties, special teams blunders, and no ability to adapt (i.e. the things going wrong now are the same things that went wrong before, and last season). This is simply a coaching staff in over their heads. Mcd and Frasier have had success on D in the past, although they were both DBs and that's reflected in our finesse D. Dabol, our ST corch, and our O corches, do any of them have any track record? I think dabol and co (as well as our HC) sort of stumbled into josh allen and then got some talent around him and are using that to paper over their inability to lead and coach. i remember last year, we played NE who had like half their starters out for covid, and a ton of injuries. they had to play 6 dbs because they had only 1 linebacker who could physically play. we beat them on a miracle zimmer forced fumble on cam, ow we woulda lost that game. anyhow, their had huge personal issues, and we ran up and down on them, but they made a plan and prepared to put themselves in the best position to win, and they nearly did with a clearly inferior team. for the bills, a rookie OT being out w coof means we can't protect and won't even bother to run. a cover 2 or some shifty disguise means well we just have to totally suck on O, because our fat slob OC who's never had any success prior to getting josh allen and diggs doesn't seem to want to practice any under center plays consistently. On d, we were getting mauled on the ground (again) and we still bit like dogs on play action. never got out of nickle, but the pats were able to keep us out of the endzone playing dime all day. i honestly think of we simply practiced and schemed some more normal regular stuff that we could go to in a pinch, we'd have 2 or 3 less losses on the season (jax, pitt, maybe steelers, no chance we beat indy yesterday). this team has no confidence in what they are doing from play to play and they shouldn't.

mcd teams get murked and lay down every season OP, ever single one.

the upshot is most of our problems imo are coaching related. these guys just don't make adjustments, don't push towards balance (not running at all, only being in nickle while getting run out the stadium), and don't seem to be able to tell who can play or not. i think these guys are just way too stubborn. arrogant even. every flippen year we get just blown out the building, often more than once. every single one! i know most coaches have a system and change players to fit the system rather than the other way around, but these guys are something else. they really think they are much smarter than they are.

what was that, start of the 3rd quarter? i remember seeing that play, and just knowing this O was shot.

dude, this is a very very good point. the fact that breida gets no burn, but CLEARLY outperforms the other two backs, and that these coaches just couldn't get teller any snaps, and had to ditch spain (yeah he's a clown, but he can play better than anyone we have between the tackles) and somehow thought fat sloppy ford could be a player just shows me they don't have any concept of oline play and coaching.

um, ya? the colts out played us huge last year, in good weather, at home in the playoffs. with the corpse of phil rivers at qb. we got like one fortunate defensive stop late, and josh allen just went super sayin and blasted outside of the scheme passes to davis and others. at this point right now, our coaching and to some extent roster balance (or lack there of) is having us perform below our talent level.

based on our can crushing stats i was hoping that we had shored up our weak spots and got everything correct under the mccoach system, but clearly that is simply not the case. our d is ineffective against any team that can run and protect well. lots of investment in the dl, and they just don't make an impact. we have just about the best secondary in the nfl, and our LBs are cover focused, and it simply doesn't matter when a team can just block us up and go play action for chunks in the middle of the field. i don't know if changing the rotation system will help, but it's clear our team simply does not make adjustments of any meaningful impact. we come in with a game plan and run that game plan into the ground. i think the team issues are just too obvious to everyone to call our coaches good right now. our OL and no ability to run or protect (which is at least in part scheme and practice preparation) and our D's total weakness against the same, and not even having the intent to adjust shows our brain trust has some huge blind spots.

Two consecutive penalties taking us out of 3rd and 3 and field goal range, and we might have even turned the ball over then too and our run game was cheeks (granted we didn't do it much). It did seem like we had pockets some of the time, but our o was horrible today, and all our skill starters were in. I think a strong oline is a huge confidence boost for a team

And maybe it would have made dabol wake up to having two tight ends in the field at one time! If we as fans can see why the team is losing, and clearly point to coaching, imagine how the players feel?

I dunno about all this Pederson talk and what not, but I do know Frank Reich is a much better head coach than mcd. His team doesn't fall apart at the first sign of adversity, and he is plugging in qbs and safeties and ol and putting his team in a position to win. Our team is just like the teams MCD was dc on before he got here. Over all good solid teams, but front runners who don't take some push back well

This is 100% correct. In addition, much worse than McCarthy, I think he simply has no feel or understanding for protection or the run game. We play teams who put their QBs in a good position to hit a big wr or te without him being blanketed. I watched the KC game at my Giants fan buddies place, he commented that he couldn't tell you what the bills offense is, it just looks like Allen I'm shotgun and wrs running around and getting open. Out coaching sucks

This offense has been a disaster every game brown hasn't played. Allen and diggs haven't missed a snap due to injury, and our o still can't be the slightest bit consistent. Ford on the field is a guaranteed loss it seems. It's insane that our depth at ol goes from just about top O to worthless w one or two guys out. It's gotta be coaching, because Indy crushed our passing attack today, and they were missing both starting safeties.

So, we have had just run for the bus blow out games in every season under mccoach. Last year was the best for that, there was some fighting in the games we got destroyed in. We blow up cans now, and just fold vs anyone who wants to fight. This team lacks confidence and they are right too.

Just a trash team.

Looool, holding on d blows up our stop! Punk team

Ya, any team that can block and tackle and not fall apart is better than the bills. Can crushers, and barely that Losers

Fact. This is a soft team. I really look at the coaching. OL is cheeks, but the timely penalties and the lack of preparation shows a team that is just kinda doing stuff, not one with a plan it believes in

Once anything goes just the right amount of wrong this team just falls apart. Penalties vs Jax, the fg drive today, this is not a prepared team. I think we've massively over rated these coaches.

brown playing is a meaningful upgrade to 40% of our oline (because RT and RG get better). gosh i hope he can play.

makes sense. i think kc is just taking big hits on over loaded contracts, and we are simply throwing a ton of money on the d, to outstanding effect.

we have been crushing cans (on d anyhow), that much is simply a fact. but oh how have we been crushing them! only real turd of a game on d was tenn, and they balled out, and got some good luck and fortune along the way. if we play them again, especially without henry, i think it goes very differently. i complained last year about schematic issues with our team on D, basically it wasn't anti fragile, and that one guy making a mistake or us not winning enough 1 on 1 match ups could lead to too big of plays, all the while we werent getting enough big splash plays on D. this season it seems like frazier and mccorch have found their magic again, and while i still have a feeling (mainly because im a nervous bills fan) that we will put up at least one total stinker before the season is done, we are witnessing the mccorch vision in full effect. just a nullification defense. take away the big play, fresh d line always running a track meet vs the big fatties on the other team, everyone being physical and flying to the ball, and some kind of anti missile mesh concept in the back end where windows flutter open only once in a while and not for long. im pretty sure we are #1 or top 3 in D spending, and we have more than a few guys on rookie deals, so perhaps it really was the case that we were simply missing the guts up front last season that we now have w a growing AJ, star back, and boogie and groot making a mess up in the cut. you love to see it.

he can do a couple things, namely pass block IMO, but his lack of hands and fumbling puts him in the replace/upgrade slot for me. his first season and this season he's shown some get up and go, but i don't understand how you can have an RB on a top team who fumbles a bunch, it's just not a path to victory long term imo.

while the d really has had only one bad outing (tenn obv) the main problem w the team overall is consistency. the on balance play of the bills has been pretty great, even if we have just crushed 6 cans (don't think kc is a can tho). altho we let tenn just walk up and down on us, it really took them making great plays (and getting calls much of the time). we don't seem to get just plain old trucked like we used too (i remember the indy playoff game, just 18 wheel time in the 2nd half).

i dunno why we never did it much before, but on paper an athletic qb with a quick release should do better under center than in the shotgun.

aside from the fact that this guy is simply a common criminal, how money can one actually make selling weed? like, his pension has got to be a few hundo a year, and he musta netted like 12MM plus as a player. most of these guys have terminal stupidity and it's just a question of what particular idiot move is going to do them in.
