Blinksportsnews247Ken Dorsey, the former offensive coordinator for the Buffalo Bills, was dismissed halfway through the previous season, despite appearing to be moving up the coaching ladder and having a promising future there.
But after the season, he became a hot commodity for a number of suitors. A few weeks later, the Cleveland Browns picked him up, right after they sacked offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt.
Undoubtedly, the Bills offense was struggling, as evidenced by Dorsey’s firing after a 24–22 loss to the Denver Broncos.
Despite those setbacks, they had one of the most explosive attacks in football, and at the time of his termination, their quarterback was leading the league in touchdown passes.
Therefore, via Noah Weiskopf on Twitter, a Browns insider, he has provided some insight into what would have caused Dorsey to be fired.
Why didn’t it work for Ken Dorsey, the #Browns new offensive coordinator in Buffalo? Well, there was too much inconsistency on the offensive side of the ball. But I understand that it was definitely not Dorsey’s fault. A source who knows him well at the #Bills told me:
“[There were] too many ups and downs. One week we scored 50 points against the Dolphins and the next week we struggled to move the ball past midcourt. teams is. not so good,” a source says than the Dolphins. – The plan was good, but we didn’t seem to execute and turned the ball over too much. We were .500 and Coach McDermott had higher standards. I don’t think it was Dorsey’s fault. Everyone is guilty. Unfortunately, the man leading the streak always gets the blame.
“Still, the Browns are excited for Dorsey to get his hands on this offensive line. Regarding the Browns’ new offensive coordinator, the same source believes, “Ken Dorsey is a great coach. Great football mind. One of the best playbooks I’ve ever learned. Every play has a built-in control to beat the defense. It’s going to be an exciting offense in Cleveland next year,” the source said..
If you don’t want to read the whole article, the bottom line is that Buffalo’s offense has been too inconsistent.They were able to score against one team and even move the ball a week later against a team with a weaker defense.
While there were many potential problems that caused the inconsistency of these offenses, Dorsey took over as offensive coordinator and play caller.Buffalo finished the year strong and made the playoffs, just like they did in Dorsey’s first year leading the offense.
While some may think Dorsey’s departure from Buffalo was premature, Buffalo’s loss is Cleveland’s gain and the Browns will be excited to see what he can do for the offense..
