    Huh? David Carr wasn't good. Burrow is elite.

    Disagree. I think he is in the tier below elite and his weapons elevate him. The Jalen Hurts level. 

     

    He doesn't elevate those around him. Watch the numbers Browning puts up in the next few weeks. They will be around what Burrow typically does. A few more INTs, perhaps. But they won't struggle on offense without Burrow too much.

    Umm..

    Looks like someone is sticking to a predraft narrative.

     

    Kincaid is actually a much improved blocker. Now is he as good as Hawes? I don't think so... Ut he's not that far behind  Knox anymore IMO. He made several nice blocks against the Jets and week 1 he drove his dude out of bounds on one play and had a couple  others where he won his assignment. I noticed him late last year throwing some nice blocks as well.

    Just don't fall for the pre-snap eye candy and it's a pretty simple one-read offense. 

    The biggest problem with their offense is there is no flow on the reads. The first read may be on the left side of the offense in the intermediate area. Second read is way back to the right and long. Third read over the middle short 

     

    There's no flow of natural progression in the reads. That's Tuas actual issue. It's not that he can't go to a second read it's that the reads are all over the place and he's trying to process. Kurt Warner did an awesome breakdown of this not long ago.

    Will 100% get roasted, HOWEVER,  if Brady gets a HC job, I'm 100% bringing in McDaniels (a guy with a major chip on his shoulder) to run the offense.

     

    The dudes brilliant, but the team has turned on him.  What he lacks in leadership, he can earn in respect with our guys.  Also, there are plenty of coaches and even player coaches, set up as framework where he wouldnt have the same issues here.  This job would look like a trip to DisneyLand with Josh running the offense.  Also, I see him as a guy recognizing his ceiling and not wanting to leave a coordinator position for HC job, allowing us some continuity.

     

    Fangio (situation is how i picture McDaniels playing out) is a guy good enough at his job to warrant some tire kicking for HC again, but seems like a guy happy to be in the best role for him.  Would absolutely love to have an offensive version of Fangio, controlling the offense and not having to sweat a new OC getting a HC job every year.

    I'm not gonna roast ya. 

     

    But here's the issue I have with McDaniel. He got the job off Shannahan's coat tails. One of the biggest complaints about him is that he cannot and will not adjust or come up with new ideas. Another is he is a horrible play caller. 

     

    He really hasn't shown anything in his time in Miami to prove he can create new ideas without Shannahan holding his hand. Hard pass...guy isn't a "genius" at all. He was just in the right place at the right time.

    Now that the Bills' schedule is very easy, I'm hoping the bills really put Bosa on a minimal snap count so he (hopefully) stays healthy.  He's really been dominant.

    I saw yesterday that he actually played fewer than 30 snaps. I wanna say it was 26 snaps total. And he still had a sack, 2 forced fumbles and a whole lotta pressures. As long as he's on the field when we need a play I'm good.

  6. SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS 

     

     

    Achane is deadly. I'm just shocked he's lasted 2 games and not gotten hurt. 

     

    McDaniel has pretty much abandoned the run in each of the first two games. Wonder if he keeps it up or overcompensates and tries to run it 40 times. FWIW, a good chunk of Dolphin fans are predicting McDaniel gets fired on Friday if they lose big Thursday. I guess we will see if his players wanna fight for him or not. 

     

    The Dolphins are desperate for a win this year and desperate for a win against Buffalo. Allen, of course, has traditionally done well against them especially at home. 

     

    After 2 weeks of watching Bosa get pressure and chase Lamar and Fields...he could have a huge game against a pocket QB like Tua with a shoddy OL. He may have multiple sacks especially if Ed is back too. Not sure Tua finishes this one. 

     

    This is the game I'll miss Mad Max in. With his speed he can run with Hill and Waddle. With the way Tua under throws receivers, he could have had a big day.

     

    Easily the worst OL we have faced this season. We should be able to get pressure with 4 consistently.

     

    Miami doesn't scare me...but any given Sunday does. A year ago it took a Bass moonshot 60 yarder at the end to beat them here. I feel like we got better and they got worse since then. But again, any given Sunday.

     

    Thursday games can be weird.

    I have questions about  Samuel, that's about it. 

    I think that's fairly obvious.

     

    Moore offers more than Samuel at this point. I think they are about on the same level. However Moore adds ST snaps and Samuel has a bonus related to how many games he's active for. Keeping Samuel shelved really doesn't hurt the offense, but it saves us a bit of cash each week against his already bloated contract.

  8. I think we scored a TD on the opening drive. 10 points in the first 10 minutes  of the game. Moved the ball throughout. Ran well and hit timely passes. Didn't commit turnovers or stupid costly penalties. That's a recipe to win football games 

     

    It's not exciting...but but I'll take 18 more boring games that we grind out 30+ points and a win.

    I think if your offense scores 36 points a game and you're complaining about the offensive play calling, the issue is more about you than it is the play caller. 

    Right? Why do people have to nitpick? Enjoy the win. People that complain after a win should have to watch at least 4 Bills drought era games in a row before they are allowed to post again. 🤣

    Any "doctor" will tell you that they aren't an x-ray machine. "Diagnosing" something like this just on film is irresponsible. Maybe he's right. Who knows. But it's just speculation. I'll wait to hear McDermott's presser and see.

    I'll be honest - I think Pacheco has been overrated from the get go. Sure he is a physical runner, but he has no game breaking ability. There are lots of guys that run hard, but it seems to me he got too much hype a) because he plays for the Chiefs and b) his crazy legs running style.

    Agree. He did have a nice stretch where he looked really solid before the injury. I'll give him that. But they need a better run game to balance that pass attack. It's getting too easy to sit back and defend Mahomes without it.

    Since when has Worthy been anything? They used him primarily on gadget plays, until late last season. Is he really a difference maker?  I’ve said this before, never seen a guy tackled with one hand more than Worthy.

    Worthy by himself isn't much of a needle mover. But put Rice out there too drawing some coverage his way and he has a better shot to burn you.

     

    Problem right now is the Chiefs have no run game since Pacheco got hurt last year. Their offense is very unbalanced and can't overcome.

    Pretty sure it’s just partial toe ligament tears…could end up being months I’d imagine but I’m not a doctor of course haha I don’t think he’ll be 100% the rest of the year

    Burrow again showing his inability to stay on the field and that last year seems to be an anomaly.

    Burrow hurt ago....gee what a shocker.

    I'm willing to bet Josh would grit it out and play through it.

    the Sam Darnold take is asinine.

     

    Burrow has a crappy OL. The OL in Buffalo is pretty good, even still, Josh gives us a ceiling that Burrow can’t. But that’s because Josh is a one man offense that basically no other QB in the NFL can replicate.

    It's really not though. It goes to show how much better a QB can look with 2 legit WRs and an offensive minded coach. I personally think any talk of Burrow being elite is asinine, but thankfully we can all have differing opinions.

    Idk… I think they’ll be fine with their backup.   He played great. 

    He played well 2 years ago when Burrow missed a lot of games late in the season. They should have made the playoffs, but Burrow had a slow start and they were already a few games down

    For today... now opponents will begin to scheme for him.  Jake Browning is a large dropoff from Burrow

    They schemed for him when he had a long stretch of starts a couple years ago and he played very well 

    29 minutes ago, FireChans said:

    Jake Browning has a winning record as a starter in Cincinnati. 

     

    I think Burrow is really good, but he has the best weapons in the league. Browning will be okay for a bit 

    Burrow without Higgins and (especially) Chase is just Sam Darnold with better hair. 

     

    Look at the year Sam had stats wise last year when he had Jefferson and Addison to throw too. Same situation in Cincinnati. Put Burrow with Allen's weapons they win maybe 6 games IMO

    I’m worried Balt, KC, Philly trade for Tyreek over the course of the next few weeks

    If they move him (and I'm not sure Ross is smart enough to) I think it will be a team no one expects. Maybe the Seahawks or 49ers. 

     

    I just don't see any of the big teams making a move for a headache player except the Chiefs...and by the Time Miami would move him they will have Worthy and Rice back or close to it.

  15. Just now, No_Matter_What said:

    I didn't see the game either, so I went to check out their board. This is one of the comments:

     

    BTJ alligator armed three catches

    One would have prevented a pick
    One would have been a TD
    One would have prevented a turnover on downs
    He singlehandedly cost us this game with selfish and half-hearted play

    I WOULD BENCH THAT CLOWN NOW

     

    And it is followed by another one:

     

    Yeah bench him next week and also explore a trade possibly

     

    Get it done Beane! lol

    So, maybe he wasn't worth what it would have taken to move up and get him.
