Buffalo716 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) I can’t believe how many trolling fans show up after an L... This was always gonna Be an up and down year... super young LBr Corp, rookie QB, pathetic WR Corp I don’t believe in tanking but there were people here who were adamant about tanking, then when we lose it’s the end of the world it’s impossible to evaluate Josh with this offense.. IMPOSSIBLE I watched Jared Goff stink stink stink it up His rookie year... he had no weapons and no line... people were calling him a bust... they surrounded him with talent and he played at a pro bowl level last year this is a team Game and we are lacking on the offensive side... Sign 2 WRs in FA , draft one , and sign and draft lineman keep him upright, get some receivers who could catch a cold and stop calling him a bust after 6 weeks He was the least ready rookie, that doesn’t mean he will never become ready Baptism by fire can be ugly at times, but making it through it is invaluable to progression . Im way more worried about leading the league in illegal formations lol Edited October 15, 2018 by Buffalo716 12 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoTier Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Excuses, excuses, excuses. The reason that the Bills "are lacking on the offensive side" is because the HC is clueless about evaluating offensive talent -- both of players and of coaches. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 People are pissed because everyone knows Nathan Peterman doesn't belong on and NFL roster. It has been said by fans and media members several times but McDermott for some reason wants to have this keep coming back to put his competence in question. What we have on offense is one of the most botched situations for a highly drafted rookie QB to develop in recent memory. I mean for the entire NFL. We have the worst surrounding cast possible around the QB, do we have to have the worst backup QB in the league too? I have been a defender of McDermott, but this stuff with Peterman and the offense is a serious stain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark92 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 It's really quite concerning at this point. McDermott has proven to be a great D coach. He's also proving to be incompetent on the other side of the ball. From the assistants he has in place to the stripping the talent away from this team. It's unexcusable to be fair. Beane and McDermott better figure this out during the off-season or 2019 might be their last. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tcali Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 we need a an offensive revamp. and the biggest problem is NOT O line. draft a QB(im not giving up on Josh),get free agent WRs and a real O coordinator.

If they screw free agency/draft up in our big rebound year it’s really going to hurt. Especially in a make or break year for our qb.

VW82 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) I disagree that it's impossible to judge Josh because of his supporting cast. Do we need to factor that in to the analysis? Sure. But there still needs to be an analysis. Goff was also raw and stunk it up. Same with Trubisky. But it wasn't as simple as putting better players around them and all of sudden they were successful. There was a learning curve for both guys. The issue is Josh is considerably further behind either of those players in their rookie years. We're dumbing down the offense to extreme degrees just so Josh can function out there. One read and then he takes off by design. He might be the most raw QB to come into the NFL in 10 years, so it's going to take time and patience. The big thing is that we see him develop in his recognition, decision making, and accuracy. In the midst of making numerous mistakes, is he also making plays? I'm ok with some ill advised throws as long as he's able to move the ball, and learns from his mistakes. So far neither of those things is happening. New teammates will help somewhat, but we need Allen to make a giant leap in football IQ for it to really matter.
