And yes I thought keeping the picks and drafting Jefferson was the better long term move. Diggs was really good last year. He’s been mediocre this year. Would liked to have had the extra picks. But maybe would not have made a difference with Beane’s drafting prowess. No one had any idea that Jefferson would become a beast especially right off the bat. Revisionist history if you ask me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like his playmakers let him down tonight, all of them. Defense was basically what I expected. They got ran over but did their job for the most part. I thought he played a good game but isn't as clutch as he was when he got 4th quarter josh reputation. There were drops also. He needs upgrades at RB, OL.

I'm not confident about that one at all, but I am confident that it will be an entirely different type of game and an entertaining one. How about a 41-37 shootout?

I think everyone assumed that to be the case today. Just look at what happened to the pats on their PR return. MCK and Stevenson have been too dicey back there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't embarrass anyone (that's not his style) but clearly communicated that all is not right and that this isn't simply a bad weather fluke. I suspect we'll see some changes right away. He may have shown a card or two when he said something to the extent of "I think I know what it is" in response to a question regarding fixing things. I'd like to at least see some assistant shuffling, something. Something that counts as a "coaching change". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihilarian Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 8 minutes ago, Nitro said: I am puzzled about the design of the offense plays. Dabol likes to keep the receivers out side the hash marks. Only time them throw to the middle is on third down to Beasley. This offense tonight was bland and easy to defend. I'm not puzzled bout the offensive plays. The guy is doing what he is being paid to do...by both teams... On some other notes. But, but, but, it's a passing league...no need to run and stop the run right? This game was my worst nightmare as now I can't watch football shows all week as ole smiley and his wunderkin QB will be all they talk about. This game reminds me of when Dick Jauron was the head coach in 2009. In a week 17 bad windstorm in Buffalo as the Bills lost that game with Pats QB Matt Cassel 6 of 8 for 78 yards. But the pats rushed 47 times for 168 yards and a TD to win 0-13!! Now you would think at some point that one of these GD Bills HD's would take a look at the past history of the weather in that stadium and realize you NEED A FREAKING RUN GAME! Along with a defense that can stop the run. Not at you OP, just venting... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comebackkid Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 3 minutes ago, finn said: Not surprised by the overreactions, because I want to overreact, too. But it comes down to this: the weather evened the playing the field for the Pats against a superior team. The rest was a Belichick team vs. a McDermott team, and, frankly, all else being even, I would put money on Belichick. His teams make fewer mistakes, more clutch plays, and play more disciplined, smart football than more talented teams. We've seen that for 25 years now. But the gap isn't that big, and it's more than made up by the talent gap. The Bills may still win out and make it to the Super Bowl, they really might. But Breida and Knox, god. You simply don't want players like that on your team. I dont know...at first i thought the weather would hurt the bills but it should have helped the D. the bills are not good at having to defend a good run D and also dealing with the threat of a passing game. mac isnt that special but he does get the ball out very fast and is fairly accurate under normal conditions. the weather took mac out of the equation and the D still came up short.

CincyBillsFan Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 1 minute ago, Beast said: The Bills had the ball 6 times in Patriots territory and scored 10 points. 10 points. That isn't good enough. Not with the weapons we have, no matter what the conditions. the offense was good enough to get into Patriots territory numerous times but not good enough once they got there and got deep. Three times they were inside of the Patriots 20 and came away with three points. Let that settle in. If you don't think that wasn't the biggest contributing factor to the loss, good for you I suppose. Yes that was a big problem. But we don't have the weapons you think we do. With Knox dropping the ball tonight we didn't have a TE. The Bills RB's are awful - enough said. Diggs is elite but Davis & Beasley are average. The O line is below average. Now that opponents have learned how to defense Allen in the red zone, particularly his running, we are not built to score from in close. We are poor at just about everything involved in red zone scoring beyond Allen & Diggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billsatlastin2018 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Beaten by a better team for almost 2 decades! Now, beaten by a worse team, being badly out coached! Thanks for the zero designed running plays for Josh on a night like yesterday- Doughball! And it takes Frazier 3 Qs to get the proper alignment against a team that was never passing! LBs out of position, missing gaps, getting suckered! Your stone hands TE reverting to form! RBs who can’t. GOOD BYE 2022! Back to the drawing board for 2023! Soooooo embarrassing and predictable!

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 McDermott says he's embarrassed by every loss, takes it personally, and expects his players to do the same. But they don't. They're still smug and arrogant and think they're better than they are. They were spoiled by success. What will it take to humble them?

Do The Reich Thing Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 McD kinda called out Daboll too. Average field position at the 40 and only scoring 10 points. Unacceptable. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is looking for a scapegoat and that is keys the OC, but the truth is, this team isn’t very talented. Did you see Edmunds tonight?
