It was completely unexpected, and I’m trying to wrap my head around whether Josh “gets it” that he needs to keep himself focused and on script when playing top defenses. He says all the right things but he has to show it on the field. I’m going to predict right now that Josh has a huge bounce-back game. No turnovers and something like 70% completion rate. I also think the ground game is going to show up big time. What say you all? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmur66 Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 I am concerned that JA and the Bills don't know how to play with a lead and maintain anything for 4 quarters of football. They go into goof mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKBillFan Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 9 hours ago, Playoffs? said: Unfortunately I agree with this. Aside from a game or two, Josh has not been ‘himself’ since the middle of last season. He has been a complete turnover machine, and seems to get visibly rattled. It’s like he gets the yips. I blame Dorsey very much as well. I think he’s absolutely awful and I have zero confidence in his ability to 1) call a great game against a great team, and 2) be an Allen-whisperer when he needs it most. I expect we win on Sunday… but something tells me we’re all going to want to be throwing things at our tv on a few occasions. I have no issue with Dorsey's play calling. He gave Josh options on Monday and, if he'd have taken them, it would have been an easy win for the Bills. It was much the same last year. My greater concern is the way things are communicated with Josh, and how he has helped through Sugar High moments. Certainly there seems to be a lack of presence on the sidelines. As for Sunday, I think Josh is going to go two ways - either force it again to prove he can do it, which may or may not pay off but in reality won't be any different to the Jets game, or go ultra conservative and defensive to protect the ball which again may or may not pay off, but won't be 'him'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 During the McDermott era, the Bills have generally dominated inferior opponents at home. The Raiders are an inferior opponent, the Bills will win in dominating fashion. The vast majority of people, including me, will be enjoying the win on Sunday. This will be the first win of 11 of 13 regular season wins. During the following week, there will be discussions comparing and contrasting the week 1 loss and the week 2 win, trying to parse out what are the "Real Bills". After 1000 threads and 100k posts during the regular season related to that discussion, it will still remain to be seen in the post season who the "Real Bills" are.

I agree with this for the most part. There are definitely open receivers that Josh ignores at times. Maybe it's play design or the players don't understand where they're supposed to go but there's been a lot of times since Dorsey got here where the receivers end up at the same place on the field bringing their coverage with them and taking both receivers out of the play. I've also noticed more miscommunications. Not that we didn't have some under Daboll(falcons game) but they seem to happen more often under Dorsey. There's only been one game this year and I didn't really pay attention to it but last year the reads were wonky and had Allen jumping all over the field. The routes didn't really mesh very well either(maybe that's why there's receivers in same area so much). It's also way too obvious when we're gonna run. Tbh a lot of his plays are easy to call out pre snap. We made a game out of it on Mon. We were calling out the routes or what kind of run it was gonna be on most plays and we were right.

Straight Hucklebuck Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 The same things we've seen for over a year now: 1. Why does Gabe Davis have to play 95% of snaps? 2. Terrell Bernard is too small. 3. There is no vertical speed on this team. 4. McDermott got his two veteran running backs with size and we don't use either one of them. 5. Ill-timed runs that make you react like this: 🤷♂️ 6. Spencer Brown on skates. 7. Why are the corners playing 12 yards off on 3rd-6? 8. Slant to Stefon Diggs for a quick 8 yards and we never see it again 9. Kaiir Elam inactive again 10. Ed Oliver invisible again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for my own prediction: The Bills will win the game, but it won't be the easy, runaway, blowout victory that some are hoping for to ease everyone's pain. I predict that Maxx Crosby is going to so badly eat Spencer Brown's lunch that it's going to lead to some stalled drives, sacks, and a boneheaded Josh Allen decision or two. Overall, as has happened a fair amount since the middle of last season, the win will look labored and difficult for the Bills. I won't believe this team is still capable of regularly blowing inferior opponents out until I start seeing it again.
