I dunno... this year reminds me a lot of 2021 actually. Allen had 22 TDs and 8 turnovers through 9 games in 2021. Through 9 games this year he has 22 TDs and 7 turnovers. The team success reflected his struggles in 2021 just like it does this year. I really think people forget about what happened in the regular season of 2021. Those losses to Jacksonville and Indy in 2021 were more embarrassing losses than our losses to the Falcons and Miami this year, IMHO.

Replace Coleman with Moore and I think those are our active WRs this week.

Awesome! Only players who look relatively questionable to play are Shakir and Lewis!

I actually think he's going to be inactive.

The fact that Joshua Palmer is a full participant this week and pretty clearly is going to play tells me he probably could have played on Sunday against the Phins. Gross.

I haven't listened to Joe Marino's All-22, but Sal Capacio on his podcast right after the game pointed out that reporters and beat writers after the game are always given a game book, which includes personell and the Dolphins played with 3 LBs on the field for the vast majority of the game. So yes.

It's weird (and probably a little sad) that I'm at the point where I think Joshua Palmer and Gabe Davis are going to massively upgrade our WR corps.

That disgusts me

Is he though? I think Shavers would be better at everything Keon does, actually.

Thanks... this is the main reason I'm just not caring all that much right now. Buffalo proved this season already it can beat elite teams when it beat KC and Baltimore when it was healthy and full strength. I think everyone forgets these are human beings playing the game and most of them have gone through these regular season wins and losses for the last 6 straight years if you go back to 2019 (very few of those guys on the team) and there's gotta be a part of them (hopefully a very tiny part) that they battle with internally throughout the season that feels like none of the games they're playing now are going to matter in mid January. And when that little devil takes over and you get a ridiculous loss like yesterday, the team responds. I expect a good game from the Bills next weekend.

Sadly, this is true. He always excelled in the scramble drill

Yes... I would rather have a win over the Chiefs than the Dolphins. Both would be nice, though.

Guess what... the #1 seed is also still very in reach, too. No team in the entire NFL has less than 2 losses. The Bills have 3. Getting the #1 seed would be nice, but it's not like it's a deal-breaker for winning the Super Bowl.

Have you watched the NFL ever? It happens all the time.

Our lows are much lower than when? 2021 had some pretty freakin low lows (Hello Urban Meyer!!!) yet that was somehow our best chance to win the Super Bowl in terms of our roster. This game doesn't mean much to me except it unfortunately demonstrates that the staff was actively overlooking Miami. People here honestly think we're missing the playoffs? If you do, let's wager. If you don't, haven't you noticed the switch this team and especially Josh flip as soon as they start their new season? Again, wake me up in January... This thread is gonna be fun to continue for the "it's over!!!" crew on this message board.

Yep. Pretty clear on that today

Whatever... wake me up in January when we're in the playoffs And it's a brand new season. I just wish Bills players and coaches didn't have the same mentality...

So annoyed at the "we should beat them so let's rest players who could play and not show anything' mentality of this team in these games. In the game week thread so many posters wanted guys like Palmer and Taron and Benford on the bench for this week because it should be a cakewalk. Divisional road game guys. It was gonna be a dog fight with all of our starters. And it sure doesn't help when McDermott decides to throw in the white towel with 40 seconds and 2 TOs in the 1st half on 3rd and 5. Why the %#$ aren't you trying to score there when you have Josh Allen at QB and Miami has no TOs????

...in the regular season

I'm legitimately shocked at the vote. People would prefer us almost certainly having to face the Chiefs and/or Ravens in the playoffs (even if it's at home) over us playing any other combination of AFC team anywhere on the road 3 times? I get that it's one more game that you'll be playing and it will be on the road, but do you guys really think they'd be more likely to lose any of those games on the road than they would be to lose against the Chiefs and Ravens? Is this a "to be the best you've got to beat the best!!!" argument???? %^$ that!!! Gimme Ws please and the easiest path to a Lombardi!

The Dolphins are 2-7, but they're still an NFL team and, more importantly, a divisional opponent. It would really suck if we approached this week as a "rest" week for players who could play like Daquan and Palmer and then lost. Our games against the Dolphins have been close lately. For the many on this board who consistently apply the transitive property to NFL games, the Dolphins did blow out a Falcons team that beat the Bills just a couple weeks ago.

Big spot for the young guys Jackson and Soloman to step up. Getting Daquan and Palmer back would be huge. Can we please go one %#$@&%$ week without a serious injury!

that was when he came out of college. It's widely documented lost a bunch of weight with the Rams to switch to LB. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/michael-hoecht-found-weight-plan-035900769.html
