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.

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.

Throughout his career? Yes. Back when he was in Denver. Here in Buffalo? No. He would often rush upfield and take himself out of running plays.

It's been amazing watching the turn on that board from McDaniel is a genius. Best hire ever to...dear Lord let Buffalo smash us so we can get rid of this nerd...😂😂

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.

Thought poke in the eye or he had to do a Lamar and take a bathroom break

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.

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. 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. 🤣

Maybe he's not as bad as I've read here.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.
