Fitz & Stevie on deep passing misfires

[Chris_Brown]

Buffalo had a few opportunities deep downfield in the passing game. Stevie Johnson had a step on his defender, C.J. Spiller did as well and so did T.J. Graham, but none of their deep shots were completed. They could’ve changed the complexion of the game. Johnson and Ryan Fitzpatrick tried to make heads or tails [...]

Graham was smothered

Did the QB coach make sure Fitz had his toes pointed in the right spot for those throws?

Again, more lining up the ducks to make Fitz the scapegoat in order to boost ticket sales when he gets dumped. Get ready for more Gailey ball in 2013.

Gailey ball could work if we had a QB that could throw more than 5 yards (behind the line of scrimmage).

To be honest, a QB with the strength and touch to make all the throws may just be exactly what the doctor ordered to fix Gailey's offense. Think about all the points left on the field in close games this year because Fitz has missed wide open receivers down field. Hitting those passes can make all the difference, really.

Now, don't get me wrong, Gailey has made some poor calls this year and the regularity this team gets blown out is alarming. But if we're to see Gailey for another year a good young QB could make this team good enough to make the playoffs, and I'll take that regardless of who the coach is.

In a perfect world we would have a new, young coach with a chip on his shoulder and something to prove to go along with a new QB, but that doesn't mean Chan's offense can't get us to the promised land with a new signal caller.

His coaching decisions will continue to lose us close games, regardless. He'll never coach a championship quality team.

His recent pattern has been overthrowing balls. The only reason he completed the Graham post is because it was raining...keeping it from sailing it beyond their reach.

40.3 QB rating on passes over 20 yards says it all.

The opportunities are there and the bad play calling is a mask for how bad the QB is.
