It seems like everyone other than McDermott and Beane now seem to know better. We’re top 5 in significant amount of offensive categories. We lost some games we should have won. Nothing we’ve built matters? Blow it all up? Fire Dorsey with literally zero replacement options? Fire McDermott who took THE laughing stock of the league who couldn’t sign a C tier free agent to a literal destination for tip tier talent. What the fuck are you people smoking cuz it ain’t the good shit.
Numbers do in fact lie 🤷🏻♂️
The numbers are very good but it’s translating to….what, exactly? Not very much. We have lost games we should’ve won but we’ve also won games we could’ve very easily lost that we should’ve and could’ve won by LARGE margins in years past—which is funny, isn’t it? Considering our numbers are so good.
We could’ve easily lost the Giants game, idc how big a fan Taron for sure had a DPI that wasn’t called on Waller and had he gotten 2 hands on the ball he was coming down with it. As for the Bucs, how many times did we stall out? Idk exactly but a lot. We should’ve won that game by 20+ and instead won bc Godwin didn’t realize the ball was at his doorstep.
On the flip side, how tf did we lose to the Jets, Pats, or…and yes, I’ll have the balls to say it, the Bengals? Jets and Pats are self explanatory wtf’s but the Bengals REALLY don’t make sense. Our battered defense who I’m not even sure who was on the field half the time somehow managed to lock up the Bengals in the 2nd half and our offense did…nothing. Til it was crunch time, then all of a sudden they looked like they did on the first drive which was dominant and like they wouldn’t be stopped, at least not easily.
Somethings up. I’m tired of the optimism here where there should be skepticism at a minimum. Should we fire anyone mid season? Nah. We’re not that bad, but we’re also not that good. We’ll have to see how we finish before we start asking to blow shit up, imo.
I like McD so I think no matter what he’s gotta stay, he’s way better than ppl wanna give him credit for the defense just isn’t executing his schemes at crucial times and he’s better than Frazier. As for Dorsey, he’s someone you wait on and see how he finishes. If he gets it together then by all means, stay. If he continues to seemingly shit the bed, gtfo.
Now, something no Bills fan wants to hear and don’t get me wrong I fucking love Josh but: SOMETHING. IS. NOT. RIGHT! I get it, his shoulder, right. But I mean his decision making is…poor. I’ve seen film breakdown all week and it just exemplifies it, sadly. I’m not saying he’s regressing overall but I am saying his decision making is being influenced and I truly don’t think any of us can decipher whether it’s him, coaching, or both. Doubt it’s totally injury related considering he’s still overthrowing bombs and bullet passing into guys chests/hands that leaves bruises.
Either way: I love you, Bills Mafia, but can we all get real for a minute? Undying optimism ain’t it. Undying optimism will keep us playing the way we are. We’ve allllll been witnesses to what we’re capable of when we play our game, but I’ve said it so many times on here: we haven’t looked the same since the BYE week of last year. Not sure what happened but it’s just true.
Anyway, Go Bills!
