Roundybout Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 (edited) Six of 11 drives began with a negative play. Of these, two were bad Cook draw plays and two were penalties. The other was a badly executed RPO and the fumbled snap. it’s coaching. Edited September 12, 2023 by Roundybout 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacred cow around here, I know, but Josh Allen has been in the league long enough to know: 1) you can't be late over the middle 2) you shouldn't throw into triple coverage 3) that sometimes a sack and punting the ball away isn't a bad thing. And yet he continues to make those mistakes. Tell me, at what point should the finger of responsibility be pointed at the QB who just crapped his pants on national TV? You can lead a horse to water, but if it does not drink, it's on the horse. Welp, too many times i've seen these Bills coaches outcoached and outcoached bad, that said Josh certainly needs to be way way better. I've said it since 13 seconds that the coaching staff is holding this team back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blame the coach all you want. ready… We used to see a great one. the longer he’s been with Dorsey the less we see that. think there’s possibly any correlation to how he’s being coached? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Still no RB Still no running game. An OC that can’t call a running game. Gabe Davis still a ghost. Still no slot guy - I guess it’s Kincaid. Still nothing under center or use of play action either there or with RPO When everything looks harder after YEARS of it not with a different OC - it’s the f***ing coaching. It’s the top down. And, if it’s Allen - it’s the coaching not getting the most out of him. Dorsey isn’t him. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can lead a horse to water, but if it does not drink, it's on the horse. Yes he played like a total head case last night, but I do believe that’s also a product of him being overcoached to do things that don’t come naturally to him. He’s shown how talented he is. I don’t have to explain to a bills fan how incredible he has proven he can be. And if the offensive coaches aren’t getting that out of him, they need to try someone else. Maybe it’s not all their fault, but you have to try someone who can work with the superstar talent you have at QB. Whatever Dorsey is doing with him is not clicking.

Shortchaz Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 If josh can’t figure out how to win in games, especially games like that one, where his brute force arm strength isn’t the answer, he’s going to follow the cam newton career arc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said after the game if the same thing happens against the Raiders, then Kyle Allen needs to come in for a series of two. See if extreme measures can work. Trouble is, if Kyle has a nightmare, it just re-enforces Josh as the best option, which we know is the case any way. Something needs to give, and it's up to the coaches to make the right choice. Does he need an arm round the shoulder? A boot up the backside? A good cop/bad cop routine? If they don't get it right then Miami will have no competition in the AFCE.

The ball to Davis was a fine read he just didn’t make a great throw and Davis ran an absolute garbage route which allowed the safety to jump it from very far away was that bomb the first one? if so, i disagree, because he was able to trot for a 1st and more. he showed no awareness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh’s boneheaded plays put us in in overtime in the first place. Luckily he didn’t fumble twice on that play as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryMadman Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I think Josh tries to do too much because the play design and coaching are lacking. He thinks he can make up for it with his talent and he can't then he gets frustrated and then makes bad decisions and it snowballs from there. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
