They straight up do not execute. Josh makes horrendous decisions with the ball, Josh forgets how to hand the ball off, Josh misses wide open receivers, receivers can’t catch lasers that they should be familiar with, and running backs have fumbling issues.

This shell of a defense did an insane job given the fact that the broncos started a ton of drives in Bills territory. They’re showing heart and it sucks that the offense doesn’t support em. It’s almost Jete level embarrassing. Even after Beane fixes the oline which was the issue last year, skill players and Josh in particular squander every opportunity.

Coaching was bad don’t get me wrong. Dorsey continuing to call passing plays after seeing the success that came with the run game is mind boggling (I love Murray). But the 3 and outs plus immediate turnovers just wears the defense out. And safe to say that the 12 man on the field surely puts McD on the hot seat.

But after watching the post game presser, Josh looks lost and says the same stupid, meaningless shit. I love him but fucking take some ownership of the fact that you lost the game and make changes.

    Again, the coaching is bad, but it’s not like McD is out there turning the ball over 4 times a game. The blame is more on Dorsey than it is McD. The defense was on the field for 37 minutes relative to the offenses 22 minutes. They are inevitably going to get gassed at one point especially with all the injuries out there

    Calling for McD to be fired is hot now but the blame for that trash is more firmly on Dorsey coming up with a actionable gameplan and Josh, and the other skill players being able to execute

    Even with all the injuries on defense, the defense is still keeping them in the game. The problem is obviously the offense. Yes, Dorsey is part of the problem, but Josh needs to take responsibility for not performing, along with receivers not catching. I feel like there is something going on with Josh. He doesn’t look like himself and I feel he is lacking the drive that we’ve seen from him in previous seasons. He looks like he doesn’t care.

    Also, I feel that the Cook fumble on the first play of the game set the tone for the rest of the game. I also do not feel he should have been benched after the fumble.

    On the broncos’ last drive, we get a sack that knocks them out of fg range. Mcd calls a jailbreak blitz and it burns us. They were averaging 4.1 yards per play, there’s no reason to send the house.

    Mcd is responsible for his staff. Offense looks unprepared every week and he needs to light a fire somewhere. When a team with this much talent underperforms and loses winnable games, it’s on the coach.

      I’m not gonna lie, ya can’t play hindsight games on a playcall.

      The zero blitzed forced a crazy underthrow and 7 just played it wrong. That’s not on the playcalling

      And even with that play they still missed the first one, so again, not on the playcalling

    Of course he isn’t the problem. This sub is full of people who know very little about football and they scream fire so and so every week for at least the last 6 years.

      How it he not a problem?? He pulled Cook from the game for a number of series and he was one of the few things going right in that game, aside from the fumble. The 12 men on the field? I think HE is the one that doesn’t want Josh running, not Dorsey, and when he finally gives in and allows it, it’s too late. I have always had a soft spot for McDermott, but he is a problem.

        You mean the 3 fumbles? He was solely responsible for 2 of them.

        You also have no idea what’s going on internally. If they thought he needed to sit, they certainly know more about the situation than you.

          I have seen enough of McDermott to know how I feel. 13 seconds was a colossal failure. He calls timeouts at the most ridiculous times, challenges plays that we know aren’t going to be overturned. 12 men on the field!! Honestly, I could go on.

          Yes, Cook fumbled a couple times, but he was also one of the few players on offense able to move down the damn field. Our offense was pretty stagnant when he wasn’t involved.

          I also believe he is more responsible for trying to turn this offense into a dink and dunk one, moreso than Dorsey. I absolutely believe he has lost the locker room. I think Daboll’s cold shoulder treatment at the end of the Giants game may speak volumes that people don’t want to hear about.

          I appreciate Sean for getting us out of a rut, but I think he has done all he can for this team.

    They ultimately lost because of being undisciplined. That falls on the coaching staff. Did you see how perfectly executed the fg at the end of the first half was for Denver? Now compare that to 12 man 9n the field. Awful

    “They do not execute” Who’s job is it to prepare them in preseason and throughout game weeks to execute? They look completely unprepared every week. Sure the defense looked good, until it mattered most! Just like the Patriots game.
