I mean there are certainly other ways to use motion. It can be used to force a defense to show who is supposed to cover in man, or make a bunch formation. We didn't completely invalidate its use. But yes, it seems like a logical way to fight the "send Hill in motion to get a running start. Hill fast!" That seemed to be their passing playbook.

The Dolphins board brought up a point (yes, I hate to credit them anything, and take it with a grain of salt) The Dolphins had been putting their man into motion right before the snap. And it works wonders because it caused confusion with assignments. McDermott looked at this trend and realized it was a better cue than a snap count and used that the time rushers, meaning that whoever was coming on a blitz had a jump. With that, whenever the first read wasn't there Tua was rushed and made bad calls. That part can be replicated, though I am sure that McDaniel can start using motion more conventionally. But a big part is the zone that the Bills play and the trust that we have in our back end to limit the big play. Hill and Waddle were each held to under 60 yard with no touchdowns. That's hard to do.

Dude! What he does with his picture of Tua is supposed to be private!

I think it's a bit of understandable vitriol after Miami was crowned champions Week 3. The Dolphins are a good team. They were a good team last year. But the hype they've been getting is unreal and it's nice to see reality set in that they are mortal

Do we remember the last time that the inside of our O-line made us confident? Because I don't

Spencer Brown hasn't been a liability. That right side has held against some top talent

Apparently some of the Dolphins players were chriping on social media about how they couldn't understand why they were underdogs going into the game. They used that emoji And now Josh and Steph are rubbing their faces in it

I was honestly shocked to see Tua out that long, down 28. Yes, there is a chance of a miracle but when your QB has an injury history like his why are you pushing your luck?

As much as I hate to give Dolphins fans credit for anything they are pointing out something: McDermott timed blitzes based off of the Dolphins going into motion because they always used it a second before they were about to snap. It was a giveaway to get that extra jump. If so, McDermott is brilliant and 30 other teams have a blueprint on how to counter all that motion

I'm not saying Tua is bad, but he needs everything to be tightly scripted. The moment he stopped getting those two second reads the Dolphins offense slowed. He made bad mistakes when he had to hold, read and deliver

I didn't want to overstate this games importance. Neither team would win or lose the division today. But whoo boy would it have been tough to climb back two games behind with a 0-2 division record It feels good to be back on top

I'm a downer at times but it's hard to be too critical when a team beats an undefeated division rival by 4 touchdowns. Were there minor blips? Yes. But the Bills were fully prepared

I can't wait to see some of the crow the talking heads are going to eat some crow about how unstoppable the Maimi offense is Right? Any... minute...now

I was praying for a blowout, and it's coming!

was that the same knee?

Damn it.

BERNARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How are the Dolphins getting away with these chips

So it CAN be done

Can we please stop the Dolphins a few times?

It's hard to imagine scripting a better start Now get the three and out

Welp I was keeping the toddler out of my wife's hair for the morning but he fell asleep in my car. Going to watch the game without sound on my phone

Ok I don't get it. Vs Hill was the exact type of coverage we needed him for. Did he do something unforgivable, like have ranch with wings?

Score more points than the other guy

Just like the Jets style of defense is tough on Josh, the Bills defense (on paper) is the one to slow the Dolphins. Motion is effective in general but it's biggest exploit is vs man coverage. Zone is supposed to be less vulnerable and McDermott is all about disguising who is supposed to be watching which zone. I'm not saying it's a slam dunk but there is a reason why Hill never went off against us last year I think this is the week they bust out Elam
