From Adam Schefter: Bills OC Ken Dorsey Fired (3 Viewers)

[DirtyHarry1551]

Please change play callers, just to see if its pete or our players. It doesn't seem that hard

But Josh Allen leads the league in interceptions. Allen has regressed as a QB since Dorsey became the OC.

Or has he regressed since Brady became his position coach? ;-)

 

[Rouxble]

Interesting

I was looking at something unrelated and saw that Josh Allen was among the QB's dominating in EPA/DB this year (4th overall). I don't watch enough Bills football to know how the offense looks on the field, but the results were there.

We are half way through the season. An assistant coaching change only adds to the confusion this offense is already struggling with. We are in a bad division right now so bad coaching really doesn't hurt us unless the team quits. I haven't seen anything that indicates the team has quit. If anything it's the inconsistent play that is holding us back. And I don't see that being corrected in the remaining games. We just need to maintain the .500 record and we are in the hunt for the division. You can put aside any hopes of this team being a contender. I just want the division crown and a home playoff appearance.

Regressed how?
Allen is 4th in yards, tied for 1st in TDs, the Bills are 2nd in points and yards, and the offense is top 5-10 in all metrics, even with his interceptions. Not to mention, their defense lost them the game last night. I'm just saying.
If Josh Allen is regressing, I want some of that here...lol

I like the turnover-worthy plays stat from PFF, they differentiate between bad throws and bad luck when it comes to turnovers. Allen has the ninth lowest turnover-worthy play rate in the league, so the tape likely shows he is among the best at protecting the ball while still generating all those big offensive numbers.

Josh Allen is so overrated

 

[stadanko]

Yeah, get rid of that bum! How soon can he be in New Orleans to interview?

I can't stand the turnover-worthy play stat from PFF because I don't think they know what tight window throws are (lol) but I agree that

I've always said that Josh Allen benefitted from the Diggs stimulus. When the offense was built around Diggs being WR1, he became an MVP candidate. I should have been more specific. I meant wanting Ken Dorsey in New Orleans.

Give me Dorsey today, like today today, as in have him signed as our new OC at 11:23am. LOL

I have lived in the Bills media market for years and have some friends that are connected with the team.

There was always some concern when they promoted Dorsey that he might be too high strung to compliment a player that was already known as "Sugar High Josh". The primary reason that Dorsey called plays from the box is that he would get too excited on the sideline. Daboll provided a calming influence on both of them.

The timing is strange, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was some kind of blowup after the game between Dorsey and McDermott.

This is what I am thinking. Dorsey is for sure wired a little different. His video of him blowing a gasket in the press box slamming things around is quite entertaining.

 

[BoNcHiE]

Hire him.

I love how he uses WR routes in the short and intermediate game.

I disagree. Our players have been frustrated for pretty much the entire season. I’m sure they would be 100% willing to see someone else take the reins at OC. The longer you let a problem persist, the more the players will not believe. and Sneaky Pete, have really botched this. You can’t go two years straight, knowing what the problem is, and be ok with it. The band-aid can be ripped off at any moment to the delight of our team. The main thing to do IS to rip the band-aid off. However won’t do it. He doesn’t have it in him. He may be the one who has had the incriminating photos all along

DA with Carr reminds me of Haslett with Brooks
