    Josh Reed Interview

    I found it interesting that he said the players were frustrated because they were never able to reach their full potential on offense because of the gameplanning. He said they never went deep so everyone was always sitting down on their short patterns. Sounds like Fairchild won't be too missed by some of the players either.

    Re: Josh Reed Interview

    The commentators were breaking down and predicting Bills plays so well, how much easier must it have been for Jim Johnson over an entire week?

    Worst offensively called game I've seen yet. What sheer inability to use what talent we have effectively. Sorry Colorado, he's your problem now.

      It's funny how all season long some posters have insisted on blaming the QB for our lack of success on offense. i agree that JP looked horrendous at times, and i felt starting Edwards was the right thing to do, but in the final analysis i must admit that our offensive playcalling was mostly to blame.

        Another statement by Reed.

        “We looked up at the scoreboard, and we were still down a touchdown and a two-point conversion,” Reed said. “We’re out there and we’re just waiting for certain calls, and they’re just not coming in like we’re expecting them to. We still have to get out there and execute the plays that are called. But it’s frustrating. It’s aggravating.”

        Reed said after a certain point, “It’s obvious what’s wrong. I don’t think it’s the guys that are out there.”


        I wholeheartedly agree. Jauron should be held accountable for letting that offensive nonsense go on too.

          He clearly was calling out the Coaches, but in a calm, reasonable manner.

          Reed just went up in stature in my book.

              I said from the first couple of games that it looked like a repeat of the first half of last year. Only this time it continued all season. It never got better after the bye.

                    Re: Josh Reed Interview

                    Not to bring up the old QB debate but it makes you wonder if JP did kind of get screwed by the system... Maybe he will stick around next year, maybe he won't, maybe he will go on to succeed somewhere else, maybe he won't. It's very frustrating though that there is a possiblity that the OC was the culprit for the offensive straight jacket on offense and that maybe it wasn't just the qb or personnel.

                    Another year leaving lingering questions!

                      I don't wonder about that. It's obvious that they were a nightmare for him.

                        I wonder if our QB's were ordered not to audible out of bad plays. It sure seemed like fairchild did not trust either one of them

                          Thats an interesting comment from a player who can't get separation from DBs. Reed is at best a #3 WR and even if Fairchild did call a 9 route for Reed he wouldnt make anything of it. He doesnt have the speed and he doesnt have the size. On the other side teams are too aware of Evans and just roll coverage to him. And as a bonus to defenses they dont have to worry about the middle of the field because even if Royal or Gaines to somehow get open they will most likely drop the ball.

                          Reed should be frustrated that he's not talented enough but thats about all he should complain about. Now if he were the #3 with a solid #2 on the outside then his talent level goes up a couple notches. Add in a TE that can threaten the middle and he might even catch 75 passes.

                            He was the scapegoat of the worst offensive system for as long as I can remember being a bills fan.

                              Ummm Mahdi he wasnt saying he was waiting for the call to come in for him to go deep. THEY were waiting for the call to come in to do something different then short passes and runs. THEY (the WRs) were prob hoping we take some sort of a shot to SCORE which we never do with this dick of an OC. BYE BYE Fairsuck
