I genuinely don't understand losing to these 3 QBs and beating Lamar. Mahomes, Mayfield

 

This is the only thing that gives me any hope. But all of those losses were on the road and thats where we'll spend the entirety of the playoffs.

Screams, and I mean screams, coaching/attitude. 

[CEN-CAL17]

Yeah… and you have Josh Allen on the sideline saying “WTF are we doing?” It’s evident he’s not happy with the play calling!!!

 

Demeco Ryan’s has built a top tier unbelievable Defense and a solid offense in 3 years. 
 

McDermott and Beane are wasting time and killing this team. Not to mention the OC situation over the past 5 seasons

I don't know that we got beat by any of those QBs.  Miami ended up putting up points at the end on the ground, but that is the big risk of being forced to sell out to prevent any first downs.  If they break through, they're gone.

 

The common denominator in all of our losses this year is turnovers plus a failure of the offense to step up to the plate and overcome them.

Well we may have Mason Rudolph & Shedeur Sanders coming up....oh nooooooo😉

Do we know that?  Or was he pissed about Torrence straight-up whiffing the block right off the snap?

 

Fans need to get out of the habit of projecting their thoughts onto players.  Unless we think Allen has no audible options, he has a say in what play actually gets run.

Lost to the Dolphins defense might be worse than losing to Tua

Sure, but it's an entirely different argument.

Yes he said he was frustrated and the play was late to get in and he should have burned a timeout

Yes. The side camera caught him saying that exactly after missing 4 & 1 in the 4th. Josh wouldn’t say that about his teammates.

Play was late to get in =/= he thought the playcall was bad

He wouldn't ever express a moment of frustration to his designated QB buddy about anything other than a coach? Bruh.

In most situations when a player says “wtf are we doing” it usually leans towards an overall who holds the hammer, calling plays. I could be wrong. But knowing Josh he’s an ultimate team player and wouldn’t say that about his teammates especially when he’s not playing good.

He was pressured on 28/35 dropbacks, sacked 8 times, and in this instance, a play was just blown up by an immediate block whiff.

[CEN-CAL17]

Don’t just look at that specific play…. I’m sure it was more than just “that play”

That kind of proves my point. A good OC can help eliminate some pressure by proper play calling

Lamar - was a shoot out and took a last second FG.. (possible they don’t make the playoffs)

 

Mahomes - KC is down this year, it happens and like the Ravens they may not make the playoffs. If they lose Sunday against Indy their playoff percentage is 27%

 

Mayfield — Injuries have derailed their season… and will be on a 3 game losing streak after Sunday.. like the other 2 they may not make the playoffs.

 

So outside of the TB the other 2 are on the outside looking in for the playoffs.. 

 

I agree though losing to Miami and Atlanta were bad.. Texans D is legit and if they every figure that O Out they will be scary..

But are coached as if they only need to be as good as the other QB.

This. The failure has been on offense. In the Miami and Atlanta games, I would argue it was mostly on Josh.
 

In the Houston game, I have no idea who is to blame. The play calling, line, receivers, QB? It was all off.

James Cook had 75 yards rushing after his first 7 rushes. Then he only touched the ball 5, maybe 6 more times after that? Some of that was game script... where the Bills were on the field, down and distance, time on the clock, etc. But that's the reality of this offense this year. They are incredible dependent on favorable game script. You get them off script and they struggle mightily.
