They don't give two ***** if Cook gets his yards. Nolike he's wearing them out. The negative plays pile. You guys think he's Barry Sanders and can make up for it. He's never broken a big one cause he has no power. We are averaging 34 ppg with Cook in the line up under Brady. You say give them something else to defend besides Allen, well they are with Cook. Which is why he has 100 total yards in the last 2 games. https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/advanced-stats-rb.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offense presses because they know the Defence can't be trusted. You need to rewatch those games, I think, or watch them for the first time. But I also agree with the Pats game, one of the rare times McD's defense did not come through this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Grundy Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 29 minutes ago, Mister Defense said: Lol! You still think that the Bills should just forego the run, basically!?? Were you a Bills' fan during the 2021 season? What made them maybe the best team in the NFL after their 7-6 start? They became the #1 running team in the NFL after that, after making Singletary their featured back--that is what made Allen reach his potential for the rest of that year and then in the playoffs. I think it is laugh out loud funny that some are sticking by this ignorant take, that Allen should just throw it, that the running game is not important. It is vital, in the most literal sense of the word, for the Bills to have a shot. I say let Ty Johnson get more carries. He's bigger than Cook and more spry than Murray, 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soft D, third down conversuons, no turnovers lead to an offence that pressed and lousy play calls. Never call a defense allowing 500 yards good. McD even made the silly comment about complimentary football. All he does is defend his defense.

They kept the Bills in almost every game this year, despite Dorsey preventing the offense from even scoring in the first quarter--or first half. This despite losing their best linebacker, best cornerback, and to me, best D-lineman who was playing great against the run and pas--and despite a slew of significant injuries in game after game.

Eastport bills Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 They’re plenty good enough but never underestimate Sean’s ability to mess things up. I know he’s not going anywhere so our defensive players better step the hell up and make a stop in a big spot for once. Hyde and Poyer have been great leaders for years, but I don’t remember one big play from them this year. Cause a turnover, make a pick or a big tackle preventing a 1st down. We need a defensive spark. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 The next two weeks will tell the story. LAC is 4-7 and in last place. NE at home "SHOULD" be a gimmie.

The worst part about how wrong you are is in full evidence over at phinforum or whatever where they are absolutely slam dunking on the Bills. McD's terrible decision making has led directly to at least 3 losses this year which coincidentally will be how many games we are behind Miami after this weekend. Miami may yet have a late season swoon as is their tradition, but if that's the best hope for the Bills making the playoffs, then yeah we've already lost We wait 20 years for a good QB, we get a great one, but we have a halfwit as a coach who thinks he's a genius. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, our D couldn't stop KC with 13 effing seconds left, you can't deny that reality. That's why we either blow teams out or lose close games. True but in reality they couldn't stop us either so you kinda detract from your point by posting that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Noggin Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Was hoping this was a poll. Hypothetically, the Bills should be good enough to go on a late-season run. They've done it before, and coincidently, immediately following an overtime loss in which they were very competitive against a strong NFC team. But this year feels a little different innit? The team has NOT shown any capacity for consistent winning football. Those injuries in London still loom large. And with McDerp not giving them late-half and OT advantages, I just don't see some kind of 5-game run in the works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF Bills Fan Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I think they will do it. I don’t think the Chiefs are that great. We’ve beaten better Chiefs teams in KC. Dallas is definitely not great. We can beat them in OP. The final 3 are all very winnable. If it’s winning in against Miami, we are not losing. If they play like they did against Philadelphia, on offense with even reffing they will win all five games. I think they dig deep, and they go into refuse to lose mode, and they went out. Just my hunch on this but I feel like it’s very doable. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Teams not as good as many fans thought. And that was before injuries. They're a good to very good team without the injuries but in my opinion not Super Bowl good. Not endorsing the coaching but to blame it all on coaching would be a mistake. Still look more at the GM and our cap issues being overrated by many as a GM. He's not terrible but he's not great either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) Minus a couple all-pros on defense out for the year and Von being a nonfiction and Jones'absence and we'd have a chance. I think 3 or 4 wins is more realistic and a long playoff run is out of the question. I'm ready to start looking at Gabe's replacement in the next draft. As far as McDermott goes, they said much the same about Andt Reid in Philly. He may have his shortcomings, but so does Bellechick and he's won 6 SB's. I'm not ready to give up on him yet.
