10/13/2025 Bills at Falcons - 2nd half game thread

[Governor]

Just remember, Frazier was fired because the defense flat out sucked. The defense has folded in every season in the McD era.

[gordong]

This defense is bad, really, really, bad. Babich needs to go they need to bring in a real defensive coordinator

Probably not a popular take, but I feel like only one head should be in question, and that's the guy that has consistently drafted and constructed a team of "good enough to start in the nfl" players around a generational talent at QB. 

Good luck with the same ownership that has a terrible hockey team.  Only reason the Bills have been competitive - Allen.

Have to score on this drive or it will be ugly.  Sal said palmer is questionable to return so that probably means he is out.

 

They still have allen, cook, shakir and knox.  They just need to make this the cook show.  throw it to him and hand it to him.  

 

They can grab all the momentum back with a nice long drive  and a score to start the third quarter.

Yes but when/if we score we get the JV defense out there to try to hold their scoring

 Very disappointed in the Oline protection.  
 

Very disappointed in the lack of D line pressure.  
 

Very disappointed in the WR group as a whole.  
 

Very disappointed.   
 

Disappointed for all Bills fans at the game.

Really doesn’t look like the ball ever hits the turf though even after the knee…it was on his forearm 

at no point did the ball even touch the ground.

Our team lacks good players.

Exactly. The defensive scheme has proved it could work very well (in Carolina). Now as to whose fault that is maybe Beane, maybe McD, probably both.

[ColoradoBills]

Josh will lead the O to a TD to start the 2nd half.

 

Then it will be a true shootout.

One thing lost in the defensive mess is this Bills offence has been bad this year outside of a few quarters.

 

Every single game they have had sequences where they have punted on 3-4 possessions In a row 

Who could have seen that coming with our hall of fame level receivers, eh?

Bottom Line: Drafting Allen and getting him has masked how inept the organization is.

Yep!

Beane should be fired for his terrible draft picks, wasting all this money on a god awful defense and not giving Allen alpha receiver rather rely on third tier guys.  So shameful.

Is it Beane or McDermott though? For the defensive draft picks at least.

 

I think the defensive picks are the guys McDermott wants.

Offence is of course most likely a combination of Josh/Beane/Brady

339 yards allowed in the first half.  Tell me again why McD has a job? 

Josh Allen.

Atlanta has 335 yards of offence.

Read that one more time^

We should have hired a defensive minded head coach instead…

Brutal half. Heads should roll

You really even can’t realistically roll all the heads lol…I don’t think you can fire babich and McDermott is the problem…maybe fire mcd and promote Brady? But then babich is calling your defense

Just think they could have had a speedy receiver like Worthy to open up the offense but instead picked Keon who cliffs the offense. 

I can't think of a worse receiver than Coleman, the way he's been playing. He can't get open, he doesn't break on the ball well, he can't win the physical battle, he fumbles and drops the ball. What the liability, just taking up space out there.

@GunnerBill - can't reply in the original thread so doing it here. It's the knee hitting the ball. He grabs it, starts pulling it up, hits the knee and starts moving, then hits the turf. If not for the ball being moved, i'd agree. But a moving ball doesn't denote control.

 

 

even then....the ball never touches the ground 

[billsfan714]

And man is Keon turning into as exactly as advertised, a no separation wr.   

[dhbGT500]

Explain to me how/why the refs added 3 secs to the clock, after the Josh pick?!?! I rewound it and there was 7 secs left, when dude was down...refs set at 10 secs.
