shoshin Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) 8 drives ended on Bass's foot, 1 a fumble inside the 30 or maybe even 20. Not nearly as bad as the score indicates. Also, Kroft tripped on the 20 yard line paint. Edited October 25, 2020 by shoshin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So then this should be a legal formation unless the TE was a lineman or something and had an illegal number. Exactly. Hence a Phantom call. Taking a TD off the board. Happens so Much from “professional” Refs. Almost like someone was against the spread hmmmmm 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just isn’t a good coach. Count me out on this. We still look like a top 5, 6, or 7 team in the rugged AFC. We are 5-2 and lead the division so why apologize for that? McDermott is doing a fine job. I think we have less talent on defense this year than in the past. We simply have not replaced players like Star, Lorenzo and Kyle. We did not improve our defensive depth despite the many free agents that were brought in. Beane will not fire his coach and if the Pegula’s are dumb enough to fire McDermott he will get hired immediately and I suspect Beane would be sending out feelers too. I might remind you that Pittsburgh has had 3 head coaches since Chuck Noll in the 70’s. Three. THREE. Firing our coach would be immensely stupid.

This was reminiscent of the 6-3 Cleveland game. Ineptitude on both sides reigned supreme. Counterpoint: The Bills played legitimately well in the second half. Fantastic defense (with the disclaimer that it was against the Jets), and the offense controlled the ball. Take away some red zone snafus and we're talking about how we put the game to bed in the third quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROCBillsBeliever Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 If we want to count some positives out of that joke of a game: -Special teams was excellent! Andre Roberts had solid returns and protected the ball. Tyler Bass made some long ones, and the clutch shot at the end, to seal it. -Our 3rd Quarter was decidedly unlike any 2020 Bills 3rd Quarter, in that we decided not to pop a slew of Zannies at halftime... we actually came out of the gates in the 3rd Quarter with energy. -It took 26 quarters of football, but our defense is finally what the kiddos out there might term "woke". -My wife somehow decided not to leave me, after the excessive cursing fest I slung at the refs and our putrid red zone "offense"... -Bills won. Titans lost. Go 49ers. On to New England! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appoo Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 3 minutes ago, Penfield45 said: why are these coaches constantly playing guys out of position and not changing anything when it’s clearly not working ? thats the big question. Bills Fans have been saying for weeks Oliver is playing out of position because Harrison Phillips has been BAD bad. You can’t run this defense with 2 three techniques. Can’t stop the run that way. You need SOMEONE at 1-tech and Oliver is probably your best option. The problem is that he’s a pro-bowl caliber 3 technique. my issue with the coaching hasn’t been necessarily the Dline (I’m more frustrated with the player execution), but rather the lack of adjusting for clearly suspect pass rush by installing a more comprehensive and frequent blitz package. seems like they did that today 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather be optimistic and enjoy the season than be pessimistic and miserable all the time. But hey, you do you. I don't choose to be miserable, the Bills already do that for me lol I'd love to actually believe in this team for once but year after year they prove they are NOT a top team in the league. Realistically we should be up there with BAL, Pitt challenging KC but we are nowhere near those teams right now. The lack of talent Beane has brought here is alarming. I will say McD has already shown he can coach a top 5 defense so this is more of a FO issue with recruitment, we really lack talent on defense.
