Bills held players only meeting this week (For real this time)

[Mister Defense]

Unless it was almost completely focused on how they  as players can take over the offense, or how they can initiate the key change needed, then they are just spinning their wheels again.

 

 

Did someone have the courage to say what is really happening, I wonder, but think probably not.

 

Diggs?

 

Morse?

 

Dawkins?

 

 

[Bruffalo]

Well that's the sign of a well adjusted, fully functional team.

 

They can turn it around, but the cracks are widening and I'm not full of faith.

We're going to get 20 pages out of a 10-minute locker room huddle, aren't we?

Damn straight!! 100 pages more like

[Roundybout]

Players: “hey we need to work some things out and refocus for the next half of the season”

 

TBD: “the players HATE the front office, they’re planning a Color Revolution, Josh is leaving to sign with MIAMI”

[C.Biscuit97]

Thank God!!! This will solve everything!!!!

 

also, nice timing when you are playing the Broncos. If they don’t win by double digits, with or without a player meeting, burn it to the ground.

[Joe Ferguson]

The only thing consistent with the Bills are the players getting older and the coaches are getting dumber.

As opposed to TBD, we we are all getting older and dumber from reading the posts.

That was a preseason-level meeting. 

[jlgarsh]

My ideal meeting: 

 

Murray: "Josh, you know how we come out flying every game in the first quarter?"

 

Allen: "Yeah, we go up tempo."

 

Murray: "Then we struggle til like last 8-10 minutes"

 

Allen: "Coach wants complimentary football"

 

Murray: "Your headset is going to break next game, so you'll have to call the plays"

 

Allen: "Huh?"

 

Murray: "Your headset broke and you can't hear Ken. Call the plays. Guys, let's catch the ball and ignore these clowns"

 

End of story

Man, they’re gonna score 40+ on Monday night.  Book it.

At this point ‘players meeting’ is just the players getting together for pizza and video games.

SF was 4-4 (and then 5-4) in 2022.

The Giants were 6-6 at one point in 2011.

I'm guessing after their 12th game

I feel sorry for the a** whooping about to be handed to Denver Monday.

Just goes to show there is are examples on both extremes.  Past success/failure does not predict future outcomes.

yes but we're talking about the buffalo bills here.

[drummernut74]

Latavius Murray just hasn't been numbed out and broken down like everyone else yet by McD the wrestling champion, wearing everyone down to the mat and repeatedly just insinuating to "trust the process" until they SAY UNCLE!! lol

Beats watching film.

[Mikie2times]

Latavius started talking about how back in his day they walked up hill in two feet of snow and men were named Latavius

TWO players-only meetings in, what, FOUR weeks.

 

Tell me you've lost the locker room without telling me you've lost the locker room.

Am I the only that sees this as the bills are about to get cake walked by the Russell Wilson led bronco's in prime time?

Crikey, we got 16 pages out of meeting #1.  The one that never occurred. 🤨

[Buddy Hix]

I’ll get excited when I read the offensive unit is having players only practice.

[strive_for_five_guy]

Latavius Murray, Syracuse native, explained to the rest of his offensive brethren the level of heartache and deprivation this fanbase has endured, and that it’s time for this team to pony up for the stretch run ahead.  Let’s go!

Weird report after the next game all of Josh's headsets seem to have broken throughout the game.

KC was 5-4 in 2021
CIN was 5-4 in 2022

 

And both teams made the Conference Championship game.  

 

So if McD takes us to the AFC CG he'll have a reprieve.  

 

That's fair.

Deep down I also think this is very possible. Broncos are riding high after demolishing the best team in the NFL (and the favorite to be first team to win back to back SB's since the Pats in 2003/2004) and have had 2 weeks to prepare for this game.

 

But hoping this players only stuff is a last ditch resort for this team to finally wake up and play a full 60 minute game. Need to start hot and jump on Broncos early to have a chance.

I can't believe no one had said anything about Sean vs. Sean yet.

agreed, if the guys who are supposed to be leading the team aren't doing it, then someone else steps into the vacuum

It's actually a pretty big storyline when you think about their history in the NFC South when McD was Panthers DC and Peyton Saints HC.

 

In fact the last time a Peyton coached team came to Buffalo it wasn't pretty if you remember the Saints demolishing this team in McD's first year here. I think they won something like 49-10.

[EasternOHBillsFan]

I would have been more excited if the offense had a party in Vegas and left Dorsey on the roof of Caesars and forgotten him there.

I wonder if it was as disjointed as the fans only meeting known as TBD

That's what some fans don't get yet, Peyton knows McDermott and what he wants to do.  I don't see this being an easy game at all.  Plus Denver is hot, we aren't.  It could be ugly

[Dr.Sack]

McDermott wont let this team quit.

Does he REALLY have that much pull at this point??? I'd say no... the players have the pull now and will be doing the best job they can to keep others from quitting.

It’s the coaches job to get the players into the right position.

They have obviously failed so badly that there has been a players only meeting...

[Coach Tuesday]

Players-only meeting = full team meeting designed by Dorsey.
