What's as troubling as the firing of Ken Dorsey and the organizational debacle of Monday night was Josh Allen's familiar refrain, a level of fire that seems to be dimming as the losses and mistakes pile up.
It’s not a mystery why the Bills are struggling. It’s turnovers. Allen lead the NFL in turnovers last year, is leading it again this year and this year is 4 away from his total last year already. Every game they lost had significant turnovers.
Part of it might be scheme, and some of it is not his fault (like ball going through Davis’ hands) but if he doesn’t start protecting the ball consistently they won’t advance through the play-offs. They will be that team that always is in contention but never get over the hump.
This isn’t the 90s anymore where every QB had double digit turnovers every year. Teams just don’t turn it over this much anymore and it’s very hard to win games with that many turnovers and that starts with the QB.
