All that talent and what a disappointment that offense has been and the defense has played pretty well. The run to the Superbowl is a fragile thing and this team is squandering it's chances yet again.

Dorsey, a former NFL quarterback, has been with the Bills since 2019 when he was hired as quarterbacks coach. He was promoted to offensive coordinator just one season later. He previously spent five years with the Carolina Panthers, where he was promoted to offensive coordinator under then-head coach Ron Rivera.


The Bills, as well as their quarterback Josh Allen, have been good statistically but also haven't looked right this season. Monday's loss to the Broncos was the latest example. Allen was the source of three of the Bills' four turnovers, with two interceptions and an embarrassing fumble that came on a simple ball exchange.


Allen is tied for the league lead in touchdown passes with 19, but he also has a league-leading 11 interceptions through 10 games as well as four fumbles. That pretty much sums up the Josh Allen experience in 2023.

Moving Brady to offensive coordinator might be one of the better moves the Bills have made this season. He's just 34 and has spent the past decade coaching at the college level (including LSU, where he coached Joe Burrow during his Heisman season) and in the NFL. Prior to being hired by the Bills in 2022, he spent two seasons as an offensive assistant with the New Orleans Saints and then (like his predecessor) spent a few years with the Panthers before getting fired.

The Bills now have a chance to test drive Brady for a few months before deciding if they want more of him, or if they want to wipe the slate clean and start over with a new OC in 2024.

Should be able to bring Daboll back soon, not after this season but likely the one after

Daboll being poached hit them hard. It ain't easy replacing quality coordinators in this league.

I have already said it a few times. They need to fire their Special Teams coordinator after screwing up essentially what would have been the last play of the game.

IDK, sometimes it is difficult to count to eleven.

Coordinators are the first to go every time. Sometimes it's warranted but often it's an issue at the top and with roster management IMO.

I think we've all been Coordinators at some point in our life.

Well, when that equipment manager is a mole in the locker room, then yes, he should be jettisoned to Timbuktu.

Josh Allen wasn't doing his OC any favors. Some of those turnovers are rookie mistake throws. An MVP caliber QB has no business doing some of the things he does. Think Allen just needs a change of scenery. I hear LA is nice this time of year, at least nicer then the frozen plains of Buffalo.

I think there was instant regression for Allen last year, which was his first without Daboll.

It’s been reported that Daboll was very hands on with Allen, to keep him from making poor decisions, especially in the Redzone.

That's who the Patriots keep in charge of inflating their balls...or so I've heard.

Yes, because they have massage parlors to "deflate" those balls....
