  1. He's on pace for like 65 grabs as a rookie TE2 and that would make him like a top 5 all time productive rookie TE. Seems to be a decent part of the offense. Oh but "He's not Laporta" ....
  2. This one is huge. Like I said, Bills miscues and some protection gaffs leading to strip sacks/ fumbles have been the biggest reason the Phins have kept our McDaniel era games close. This is the best line we've had. I'm confident this will really cut down on their ability to pressure us.
  3. Fins have a gimmicky team. The gimmick won't work all the time and their team will never win a Superbowl like this. I do believe the "smoke and mirrors" that has elevated the play of a very weak OL will be exposed by better Defenses like the Bills. Bills are a well rounded, solid football team playing at home in a difficult environment. Bills have owned the Dolphins the last several years, even the last loss was a flukey 22 game , where the offense had nearly 500 yards, but made several bone-headed miscues in Q4 that cost them the game. I like Buffalo here. I feel the Bills D-line will be a huge reason for the win. They'll get some pressure and limit the run. I think they will still gash us now and then , but the Bills will keep it contained and stave off bleeding. Longer more methodical drives by the offense will add to keep Miami O off the field. I expect the crowd and pass coverage to knock off Tua just enough to open up some mistakes by Miami. The Bills have almost always moved the ball against the Phins D with ease, and I expect that to continue. The Online has been tested against some stout DLs and pass rushers, and looked tough and highly improved. It's not gimmicks that are making that unit look like the class of the AFCE. The Bills routinely put up major points on this group, but the problems on O are bone headed errors- turnovers, penalties, and goofs. I expect the Bills to play a cleaner game, and run the ball better. Final 31-21 Bills
  4. Laporta has the most catches NFL history by a rookie TE so far. Kincaid is doing fine.
  5. Folks will see Rapp and be surprised. He's good and will play well.
  6. I can't get over that Sam Howell put 32 up on the Broncos in a half the week before the 70 burger.
  7. Interested in Jaelin Philips injury. Would be a big loss for Phins.
  8. I struggle with this. Our D line is a lot better than then, and heading into this game we've got the best cover/ secondary we've had in several outings. Game 1 last year we played them very well defensively. They still got in their splash plays via the air, but basically shut them down. Our secondary was a mediocre crew w all the injury. Blew the game w a lot of other mistakes. Game 2 they had 188 on the ground and we almost lost. Again, the problem is if you"let" them run they have RBs who can break big plays as quickly as the pass. I don't think we basically let them do anything. Not like we stack the box. Have to be balanced , trust our guys. I think our base nickel / typical D favors us .... honestly the things we've been doing are our best bet; masked coverages, mostly run blitzes, an occasional extra rusher, but mainly counting on our base 4. Our ends like Floyd and Groot are so long limbed. Get those hands up. As crazy as it sounds, I like our D in this game. Despite the fact the Phins have had some success against us, we surprisingly match up very well.
  9. I don't think he'd come back here. He'd get paid anyways and probably go back to college. I could see him being an excellent college coach.
  10. I thought Rapp pulled up at the last minute.
  11. Well if by great you mean bottom 5 in the NFL in RB ok.... I agree on pass rush, but generally it is not as good as they say, and a bit overrated. Howell is a guy. If you rack and stack them he would still be a bottom 10 QB. I want to respect all our opponents, but this one should be a Bills W. These guys are 2-0 and looking to keep rolling, but I figure we roll them.
  12. I will say....guys also didn't make plays. Those screens to Harty , the action to Cook, Knox critical drop in OT. Yes, and Kincaid could not break one...but of course it's hard to look at anything but Allen. I think running a similar set v Vegas we are going to see more break aways and YAC. More big plays not necc from downfield hucks. I also don't think ( or at least hope) we'll see the same level of turnovers from #17.
  13. Kelce had 67 catches his 2nd "rookie" year....i.e. 4 catches per game.
  14. If Kincade avg'd 4 catches a game he'd have one of the best rookie TE seasons in NFL history. https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/most-receiving-yards-by-a-rookie-tight-end-in-a-season
  15. When I think of a nasty offense I think of one that can run, pass, and do multiple things. It's a conditional offense. They will feast in fair conditions versus poor pass coverage teams. They will struggle versus better defenses and in poor elements. Games in LA in Sept is what they are made for.
  16. They looked totally beatable. 2 turnovers and still a huck it deep or nothing offense. Gave up 230 yards rushing.
  17. Yes agreed. It's highly concerning behavior for a franchise player. Gaining 40 pounds in one month is indicative of serious eating disorders, and a 600-800 calorie crash diet for a big athlete is a bad idea. Bragging about losing weight they gained since you last saw them is also the oldest trick in the book for delusional narcissists. Let's also add that: A. He looked slow, overweight and was getting beat by speed rushers in November and December as well. B. He looked overweight and ridiculous in that shirtless suit. Pure delusion that looked presentable. C. He looked the heaviest and slowest I've ever seen him in the preseason game against Pitt. I am really worried this guy will eat himself out of the league....and this only reaffirms it to me- he won't have a long career.
  18. Fumble killed them. Lions need to pick it up. Exchanging punts w Mahomes ain't going to last.
  19. Chiefs can't stop the run. Got lucky there.
  20. What play had all the linemen go to their backs?
  21. Ha he picked US to win the SB today.
