The Red King

Does it really matter if the line can't open running lanes?

We need a better backup, yes. But it's not something we're going to address this season.

Like it or not, Miami has a W on us. The Jets not only knocked them a game behind us, they handed them a divisional loss. I wanted to see 'Phins fans get the smarmy smacked off their faces. That part was fun too.

This aged well.

The Edmunds haters are looking for any reason to hate, even if it's something as ludicrous as this. "Bills D against a struggling Pitt offense with a QB playing his first NFL start, playing in bad weather, is held to 3 points. Obviously this happened solely because Edmunds was out, proving without a shadow of a doubt he is useless and should be cut." Do I have the meaning of the OP right? Because it sounds pretty darn silly if I do, doesn't it?

The concusion deniers on the 'Phins board are delusional. They're even claiming he wasn't concussed vs. the Bengals. That this is a league conspiracy against them.

Ironically, the 'Phins would have been in far better shape at this point if Tua never played the Cincy game. They got lucky Buffalo didn't knock him out. Rather then taking that, they doubled down and paid for it. Then, thanks to the new protocols put in place by their own actions, Miami lost their backup. This tickles me...

Given that our team is the walking wounded, playing on the road, makes sense.

Beautiful run there!

That one might keep our starters in the game longer. >.<

Not complaining, but a FG here?

It's almost like our starting o-line, receiving corp and secondary have been outright decimated to the point where a third or half our starters aren't playing. I know, our backups should be playing as good as our starters.

The Buffalo D? Once or twice?

Getting sick of hearing about Pickett every play, even that incompletion.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but it looked like the guy on the right edge jumped early. Anyone else see it?

Edge jumped early!

It's almost like he shouldn't have been rushed back out on the field after being concussed.

Not disputing that. Just saying he wants the added attention. Not saying it's smart of him to do so. That's why he pulled the stunt in the first place, in his own words.

He doesn't care about the lawsuit. He knows it'll be thrown out. He's trying to use the publicity to draw attention to his cause, that's all.

Just looks like sour grapes after a loss. "But...but see how close we were?!?". No. You blew it. Man up.

For those mentioning the Jags game last year, it happens. It hurts, but it is proof any team can win any given Sunday. For example, I remember a year when the Patriots were crushed by a lowly Bills team on opening day. Despite later going 14-2 and winning the Super Bowl, that embarrassing loss so badly vexed Brady that he took a shot at hotels in Buffalo the week before that Super Bowl. It happens. Get over it.

People are drifting from the OP. Miami leaving would have made more sense then Indy. It shouldn't have even been a choice.

Anyone else think they were hoping to get past Cincy with Tua, then rest him against the Jets, because...Jets?

Thanks, all. Knock on wood, it seems like I could have been much worse off. That aside, given all the recaps here it is terrifyingly negligent for the 'phins to put Tua out there Sunday for the second half, or yesterday at all.

The coach looked like a deer in headlights spewing out lines that nobody, even he, believes. I like how he mentioned the personal foul, like that should have changed anything. They, be it the NFL, the organization, or both, gambled with Tua's health. They got away with it the Buffalo game. They then pushed their luck yesterday and paid the price. Or rather Tua paid the price.
