VW82 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 This was probably inevitable given how the season has gone, but firing Dorsey after last night’s debacle reeks of desperation. It wasn’t Dorsey’s fault that Josh kept throwing it to the Broncos, or that Josh and Cook couldn’t hang onto the football. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the reason he has more career fumbles after 5 1/2 years of play than Montana did over 15? He has 127 turnovers in 87 games played. Do you understand how insane that is? Im willing to live with turnovers when the offense is putting enough points to dominate people. Josh had a game here and there that was aweful but it was just a game here and there per season. All QBs have them. Josh is on a 6 game stretch of bad offense and clearly has regressed under Dorsey. While it may not all be on Dorsey, enough of it is that it's time for change. Our elite franchise QB is going nowhere. Edited November 14, 2023 by Scott7975 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want it Daboll that was berating Allen on the sidelines like Allen was a 10yr old? did you see Daboll chew out Tyrod Taylor - a veteran - just a few weeks ago? You lost me there. There is nothing zen about Daboll. Daboll is definitely not zen. He got moved up to the booth for a reason. However, Daboll had something that kept Allen playing good football that Dorsey doesn't. I dunno what that is but he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the offense has undoubtedly taken a step back under Dorsey. And this year, we upgraded the line, the running game, and added Kincaid. The offense shouldn't be struggling like it is. Allen has regressed - but that doesn't happen in a vacuum either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only similarity is the area in which the interception occurred. People like to throw around statements on here as if they're fact, but when asked to back those statements up can't - or are unwilling to. There's so much misinformation on this board because people just see something and run with it whether it's true or not. this ^^ for all you "there's guys running wide open" posters. This guy can explain to you what things like taking a backside 1v1 means, and why often times the "guys running wide open" is irrelevant to that read.

McDermott has to find an OC that can get Josh and cast rolling again. It is good to get the message out now that the Bills need that OC. I think people will find that performance comical. All McDermott needs to do is find the offensive version of himself. I think he had that some in Daboll and he got scooped up but they should of been on the lookout for the next guy long before they fired Dorsey. Wouldn't that be Josh McDaniels ?

How would Mahomes or Burrow be doing with our offense ? Throwing passes into triple coverage because he can’t seem to read defenses correctly has nothing to do with weapons. Stop giving our franchise qb passes. He needs to step up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7975 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 5 hours ago, Bill from NYC said: Question for Bills Fans: Who do you think was the most responsible for Firing Dorsey? A) Mr. Pegula B) Beane C) McDermott I am of the very strong opinion that Mr. Pegula gave the power to McDermott to make moves like this, AND gave him final say wrt the draft. I also think that he was the one to fire Frazier. Jmo but curious as to what others think. I dunno the answer to this but most coaches pick their own staff. WRT to final say in draft... maybe year one when Whaley was on his way out but I don't think that is true since. The reason he didn't take a QB year one was so the incomming GM could pick the QB. I highly doubt the HC/GM relationship is any different than most other teams relationship. That is the coach says what kind of players he wants and the gm goes and gets them. McD of course has some say but Beane is playing an actual GM role and not some submissive role that people dream up in their head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigduke6 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) to think that Dorsey was being talked about as the next great HC candidate half way through last season. wonder what actually happened. all we see is whats on the field. something else is going on behind closed doors imo. if the offense feels like Dorsey just got the shaft, McD will lose this locker room faster than you can say Clappy, and will be gone at the end of the season. should be interesting. now fired one OC, made another OC want to leave, made a DC want to leave. not looking good. wish Dorsey the best. before Joshs UCL last season he had the offense humming. sucks to get canned, hope he lands on his feet elsewhere.

Mahomes (or Burrow for that matter) doesn’t make many mistakes to hurt his team. That’s the big difference. There’s an important qb stat you’re leaving out. One guy is 7-2 while the other is 5-5.

I, on the other hand, hold him accountable as an elite qb. So we’re going to naturally disagree a lot of times when it comes to Allen. But we both want the Bills to do well and they’re not at the moment. There’s a lot of blame to go around and I hope you’d see that Allen isn’t exempt from that. Now that Dorsey is gone and it looks like rock bottom for Allen and the team let’s hope he can rebound and salvage this season.
