I mean that’s what I’d do.

hits a bit different when it’s an active player

We find that out when we see him face adversity. he’s getting a real early test these next few months

They won’t. They are rightly conservative with player health

McDaniel is legit as an offensive guy

This is the kind of stuff that’s going to help kill this sport. We MUST protect these players

Furious with the Dolphins right now. He banged his head a lot harder last weekend on that play. Maybe he did have back problems but it’s insane to ignore the head trauma he suffered. This hate just piled on it. Horrible horrible horrible

Sorry, read you wrong. I agree with you - as a football fan I like Tua quite a bit. He’s better than Burrow IMO

Ok that’s gross. That was his throwing hand that looked all mangled

And there’s Tia’s arm strength showing up - or lack their of

They have a game plan that says they don’t trust their own oline

Weird but you do you

I really despise this under 10 yard offense from Joe Burrow and I’m not at all resentful as a fantasy Chase owner Yes against Johnson Hamlin who both poorly executed coverage

Tua is such an interesting QB. If his arm was 20% stronger he’d be a top 5 QB with his accuracy. as it is, if you can move or get him to delay his throw pats 3.5 seconds or so, he doesn’t have the arm to take those 45 yard deep shots you need to beat NFL safeties and corners. He has to float it. On the other hands I’ll not sure there’s a more accurate QB under 30 yards who has better ball placement and touch Didn’t want to turn it over and was hoping for a DPI

More about process of the catch I think.

Normally I'm with you because I think the bye week is huge. But all these injuries have me a bit spooked, to be chasing it. Would rather the team be conservative with player health. When you have a team this good, this talented, then just getting them into the playoffs healthy is better than getting the #1 seed with bumped and bruised roster IMO - but to be sure, I don't know if those two things are mutually exclusive. Really, just never seen an injury situation like this before with the Bills. Reminds me of the Niner a few years ago after their Super Bowl run, when their defense was grim reapered

I could have sworn Jaquan was actually trying to get out of the way, but did it clumsily and only railed him like that by accident. But if you're a ref, you can't take into account intent. It was a fair penalty He's a much more important player to this defense than either Poyer or Hyde. IMO of course. Deserves the money he's about to get

I've already put the 1 seed out of my mind. Right now, my goal for this team is just to get it peaking , and healthy, for the stretch run and then into the playoffs. Anywhere in the top 4 seeds will do for me

Yup, I just looked up the dew point for Sunday and it was a wildly high 75-78. Like relatively speakiung that like playing a football game in the tropical rain forest, on a hot day, whilst wearing a wet heated blanket

Thew point was 75 - 78 I wish more people knew what that meant, you don't look at humidity, you look at the dew point. Like 66-70 is like a muggy day in NYC. Miserable is being in a rain forest. Anything higher is being in a rain forest while wearing a heated, wet, blanket. Unless you are used to this humidity (which players in the south are), and the you also have consistent cool air (which the dolphins do being on the shaded sideline), then...like have you ever played in the heat? I was a fast dude, but during certain days of summer, it felt like I could only run at half speed. This is what these players were going through

This game shouldn't have been played

The more I think about that game, the more I think it's a testament to the roster build, McDermott and staff's ball knowledge, and Josh Allen that this game wasn't a 3 score blowout. You know how in political forecasting we have something called the fundamentals? Which is to say the inherent advantage for one party over the other based on economy, who's in powers, demographics, etc - before you ever get into candidate quality. Well in this game, fundamentals advantages the Dolphins by 3 TDs He never completed the catch. That wouldn't have been ruled a fumble if it happened in midfield

how is this McDermott's fault

IMO Kyle Shannahan is the best coach in the league, but has a very average GM in Lynch. I'd take him
