"Buffalo seemed ready to take advantage of that weakness on its opening drive, when it cruised 75 yards in 10 plays – including five rushes for 24 yards by McGahee – and took a 7-0 lead. Inexplicably, McGahee would only get 11 carries in Buffalo's final 10 drives"

"Mularkey wanted the Bills to be a power offense, but he's used McGahee modestly, rushing him 78 times in four games."

That about sums it up. McGahee only had 11 carries the final 10 drives from what is supposed to be a power offense?

Losman has 94 pass attempts but McGahee only has 78 rushing attempts. Does anyone else see something wrong with this picture?

Mike is nothing but full of Mularkey. He was pass happy in Pittsburgh and they never went back to a running game till he left. To believe him and his whole "power offense" crap. Who is he trying to kid.

Towards the end of last year he went away from the pass happiness and we started controlling the game. Drew was only passing about 15-20 times a game at the most and McGahee was getting 25+ carries.

Mularkey doesn't learn his lesson till we get behind the 8 ball. He will eventually come back to it after the pass happy offense he truly wants goes down the tank just like last year.

It seems like the offense is revolved around Losman more then it is McGahee.

Does anyone remember the snow game a few years ago when Pittsburgh played the Jets? The weather was terrible but the Steelers threw about 30 times and only ran about 10 times and got their ass handed to them. The Jets were the total opposite.

The weather was so bad passing was impossible. The WR's could barely even hold onto the ball. Mularkey aired it out all game and they lost. This should tell you all you need to know about what kind of offense he truly wants to run.

He tells you this crap at the start of the season because it's what the fans wanna here. His strategy has went down the tank again like last year and he will eventually start running more and swallow his ego.

Some say we're unable to run the ball because Losman isn't opening up the running game? Then how come Willis is on pace for 1,500 yards and he's averaging 4.8 yards a carry? They can run the ball but Mularkey is either too stubborn or to impatient to make it work.

We run on 1st down for a couple yards and then it's pass, pass and then punt. When we get behind then he starts running the ball.

Our pass to run ratio needs to be around 40-60. If Mularkey would be patient enough they would wear the defense down and control the clock.

It seems like our offense at the start of the game is designed around Losman when it should be the other way around. Mike has been sniffing too much Mularkey because his head is up his ass.

Shuad Williams is averaging 4.0 ypc too. We can run the ball but Mularkey is choosing not to until it's too late.

He's trying to be too cute. He's trying to pass when he thinks they are looking for a run and running when they think it's time for them to pass.

The play calling has been abominable. The D has been dismal. The O line has been pathetic.

But it's all JP's fault.

It is one of the several things, that I can realize that I never will be a NFL coach. Man, even a guy like me, can have a better game time calling. I know and understand, about the smoke screens and all that stuff, but this is ridiculous, I bet the opposite DC are still asking themselves, what happened on the game, we really started the race like a wild horse, and finished like a damn donkey.Oh well, let's go Buffalo, keep the pain coming!!!!
