It's pretty close to the same thing the dolphins did, give up the outside leverage to the wrs then blitz off the edge and spy on josh for the scramble

Lot of game left and I'm here for it, but I think what we are seeing is one franchise that surrounded their QB with elite talent and another that is still hoping their young wrs would step up. Now you have a franchise that asks their young qb to spread the ball to its elite weapons and another franchise asking their young qb to go out and be God every weekend.

It was probably a bad sign that this D line got worked by the dolphins back ups

Haven't heard that one, interesting indeed.

You will see more of an impact from Rousseau and epenesa this week. Kind of a narrative going around that bills edge rush was bad Sunday. Basham actually had a really good day on pressures, but the biggest factor is the Shanahan system is a quick read quick release offense, makes its tough to get to the qb. This week will be different, Burroughs release times say he gets it out quick most of the time but loves looking down feild for chase and holds the ball and will take sacks. I predict we really feel Rousseaus pressence this game. My large concern is there has been some pretty terrible officiating already in the playoffs, Bosa had every right to be pissed. He shouldn't act like child and hurt his team but he was being drug to the ground on 2 td passes directly in front of the refs, game changing blatant no calls. Then the roughing the passer on cousins was mind blowing. There's always bad calls but it feels like it's a matter of time until the bills get a terrible game changing call.

Yes, it was a dangerous gamble that almost paid off for the dolphins. Everyone thinking it was just josh playing hero ball all game doesn't get that the fins sacrificed the deep ball (though there was a few times the check down was there). Fins blitzed heavily, and gave the bills wrs outside leverage for the deep ball all game. The fins knew if they could force deep routes, force the rbs to stay and protect, and see if josh can hit the deep shot with pressure in his face. If the bills recievers caught those balls this game got out of hand quick for the fins, but drops in pivotal moments continues to kill the bills momentum.

Upside is its looking like bills finished healthier.

Kinda hoping Jonah williams is back, he got ate up. And got away with so many holds.

Agreed, just looked like he was pissed the entire game. Probably not happy jackson sat out

Come on over cincy, josh makes that play all day

He was never healthy, and when he was Gabe was playing well and kumerow was needed on teams. Happy for the guy, but you can't evaluate a guy that could never play.

To me it's not even a question, who do want to have a shoot out with? A qb that just trew 4 ints, Christian Kirk and zay Jones or super bowl burrough,chase Higgins, and boyd? And as good as Florida josh allen is the Bengals edge is much more dangerous. And bengals LBs are very athletic.

Jonah Williams should be a target of the bills D. He's getting away with alot of holds, if he's not holding he's getting beat.

Calls like that makes you think twice about the nfl is scripted conspiracy theories lol. Such a terrible call at a pivotal moment

Ouch, terrible call

I disagree, this is playoffs, this is where good teams dial up packages you weren't expecting them to come at you with, especially defense. Dolphins just had success for a 3rd time blitzing Allen. The bills and Allen have struggled much more this season when josh has been excellent in years passed. Granted not every team we face will have the Dolphins mind set of nothing to lose and probably wont sell out on the blitz like the dolphins today, unless its the ravens who love to blitz. But teams will definitely dial up more blitz packages especially on 3rd down against the bills seeing how brown and saffold got eaten alive and josh hasn't been taking check downs when available, though they weren't as available due to keeping the RB in to protect. Until josh continously connects on deep balls and burns a defense too many times (which can very well happen) the blue print of blitz and sacrifice the deep ball worked to almost beat the bills with an inferior team.

My take aways: Dolphins deserve respect, we are a superior team in almost every way and they played tough. But the bills beat the bills while the Dolphins watched today. Every team is now going to blitz the living ***** out to the bills. Was there no adjustment for the blitz? Or was it the Dolphins knowing the bills WRs will change routes based on leverage and were willing to give the deep shot leverage and bait josh into deep ball shots all game knowing saffold is a revolving door? Or was josh refusing to check the ball down? From now on just give opposing teams the first if it's 3rd and long, no point in trying. If anyone wants to get even more angry, watch saffold every play. There's times he's standing knees locked looking around lost while josh is running for his life. On the bright side this team didn't fold when EVERYTHING was going wrong. They stuck out another gross win and stayed relatively healthy.

Que all the " bills won because of a call" in social media but they had a bull#### overturn on the Knox td to keep the game interesting.

Hard count, timeout. Sneak

The mark line on CBS is off a foot

Run the ball until 3rd, then play action dump off to Knox, if it's not there take the sack

Dolphins blitz entire game and bills wrs running streaks and fades

Mad at first, but bills were not set on D. And if it was live that was PI on white

Agreed, taking the kill shot instead of easy 5-8 yards

Gut check time
