just because  he's better than dorsey doesnt mean i want Daboll back.    we came out conservative af in the first half against the chiefs in the championship game.   

when it finally became apparent we better do something Daboll finally got agressive and we almost won.   then there was the whole 50 passes in a row and were just going to throw 50 yards on every down. 

I'm pretty convinced that Dorsey picked up a lot of Dabolls bad traits and doesnt know enough to scheme is own stuff well enough to be efficient

Why McD promoted Dorsey to OC I'll never understand.  He's never done it before last season.  This roster has talent and they are under performing at an alarming rate.  I don't care about all the stats that they racked up against garbage teams.  The offense is totalling sputtering.  They haven't played a complete game since the Dolphins which may be the high water mark.

It depends who’s available, doesn’t it?  With Josh Allen, we’d be the most desirable landing spot for a top coordinator…I mean, how often does a team with a superstar quarterback have a coaching vacancy?  Most coaches who get fired are trying to work with guys like Tyrod Taylor and Carson Wentz…

i think that he thought that Dorsey could do enought to just continue what Daboll started and Josh was far enough along to carry the rest of the team.     Josh 

wasnt that far along and Dorsey hasnt been able to grow.

You and I know the weapons aren't good enough to expect domination but Allen played like a guy who had 2 days to prepare for a random opponent when he's playing the team that embarrassed him in the playoffs last year.   

 

What makes you think he wasn't prepared? I just think Dorsey has him in his own head with this system. Everything is too disjointed. Allen doesn't start running until it's too late. There are very few schemed up one-read throws like you see in pretty much every other offense. Our protection schemes get beaten frequently. WRs end up tripping over each other because their routes are next to each other. I described the play calling in the game thread as Dorsey reaching into a bag and randomly pulling out a play call, that's what it feels like to me.

 

That's a lot of jumbled up thoughts, that was a long game and I'm tired. But im general I'm not remotely satisfied with Dorsey's overall management of the offense. His offense feels like it's run by A.I. He understands what play calls beat what coverages and progression design, etc., but he has no innate feel for the game.

Correct IMO. It's not about his offensive scheme and play designs as a whole, it's his inability to get the offense in rhythm. Everybody watching from the couch knows the offense works better from up tempo and with Josh running the ball. We know it works better without random shot calls downfield that never work. But Dorsey for some reason can't see these obvious truths right in front of his face.

Everybody knows that up tempo is a winning formula for our offense. Everybody except the one man that can do something about it.

I can't place it all on Dorsey when both him and McD talk about Sean injecting his philosophy into the offense...

[SectionC3]

Based on the player comments about offensive approach, it wouldn’t shock me if Dorsey catches the boot tomorrow.   If Josh signs off on it, then who knows …

He’s not happy with Dorsey, it’s pretty obvious to see at this point

Haven't paid enough attention to the player interviews to have a good read, I know with Daboll who Josh loved he'd always talk him up or really go to bat for him does that just not really happen or something?

He really had an edge in his voice talking about how the game plan was to not use tempo offense today

I thought he said it had been.

Dorsey should get a chance to let Allen save his job. Install a no-huddle uptempo offense and let Allen call the plays. BTW, is the weather Monday night conducive to passing?

I wonder if Sean is limiting no huddle? It's not usually something a defensive coordinator would endorse.

Great veteran QB's make even dumb play callers look good.

 

Allen should be there by now........but he's clearly not so we are left calling for the team to run no-huddle so he doesn't have to think so much.

 

I've largely accepted his shortcomings and have been pounding the table for more weapons for him for years now..........I could write a novel on my feelings about where he is versus where he should be in the mental aspects of the game.  People can't really see the forest for the trees when it comes to Josh.

 

We've come to eliminate some of his foibles from consideration.........like not being able to execute a simple screen pass 6 years in.   At some point in this new-CBA world the franchise QB needs to take it upon himself to see to it that basic execution is not an issue before the season even starts.

 

[The Helmet of]

The Bills are dead to me until this guy gets the axe. They will never go ANYWHERE with him calling the plays. KEN Dorsey should be coaching  QBs at the HS level.

Did I have a stroke, I swear this already ***** happened, and then the next week we spontaneously decided to stop doing it after 1 drive into the game.

I think they got caught not having a plan last drive 1 and went with the off-season installed offense to try and manhandle the Bengals. The OL has been upgraded but looks much better in 11 than 12.
