Miami might be elite with more competent coaching…not impressed with the offensive or defensive playcalling. McDaniel gets all the praise somehow but their coaches are holding back a very talented team imo

That’s not an easy play for a d tier wr I don’t care what mark sanchez says

McDaniel flyinggggg up my worst coaches in the league leaderboard

It’s gonna be hard to take that side of the argument with what’s going on in the current game / recency bias but you very much are correct lol we’ve been stout against the run especially with edmunds/Milano in the game

It’s crazy because we typically do it out of the nickel…I’d expect to see Frazier mix up the personnel if Miami continues to pound it

McDaniel consistently makes all the wrong decisions…they’ve got a talented team but I’m not impressed with him at all

I feel like they’ve consistently added an extra 5 minutes of commercials to an nfl broadcast every year for the last 20 years lol

There was a tweet floating around that we played more press man against Miami in the first matchup than any other team has against Miami. So we may have provided that blueprint

I think he probably has a rib fracture that didn’t show up on the X-ray during the game

His instagram handle is @elitetua so I doubt he is a good source of unbiased football information 😂

He’s one of the few that went dolphins…picks are 96% on buffalo according to nflpickwatch which aggregates all the expert picks it knows about I was honestly a little shocked the picks were that one sided…thought it would be 70/30

The dolphins have major issues when their offensive timing gets disrupted so I think they’re gonna struggle a lot more than us with a snowy field. Snow should ‘help’ the receivers run routes because they know where they’re going and will slip less than the dbs but the timing of their breaks will be completely different with lower traction. I think it’s gonna come down to which qb is better at improvising and these two guys are polar opposites in that regard tua is a robot that makes pretty much one read and throws the ball to a spot on the field where he would’ve expected a receiver to be if the play was run perfectly. I don’t think he ever really learned to play qb since his college offense was just so much more physically talented than their opponents every week so they built a system around him getting the ball out quick on predetermined reads to physical freaks at wr. kind of reminds me of Goff the year the rams got spanked by the pats in the Super Bowl. A good defense will give the dolphins absolute fits but they will blow out bad teams

It’s hard to say how much though…our defense is healthier than the last meeting and both offenses look considerably worse

Probably depends on the kind of weather it is. If it’s just steady snow and no wind it could definitely favor the offense all game if they’re used to handling a wet football. There’s been some crazy offensive performances in weather like that. if it’s blizzard conditions though like the bills colts game and the bills browns game many years ago with wind and no visibility that heavily favors the defense.

Yea the route running I’d say favors the offense for sure but the qbs gotta grip the football and the receivers gotta catch it. Miami keeps saying it’s a mental thing not a physical thing but it is very much both lol

Snow on its own has a negative impact on the offense but probably not as much as people think. It’s really the wind/visibility that’s the killer and this storm doesn’t sound like it’s going to be awful in either of those departments

This is the dumbest take in the world lol they moved the game last time because it was an insane amount of snow and they didn’t want to divert emergency personnel this game where there’s a modest amount of snow is not going to be moved

Doesn’t look like it’s gonna be that windy…also I think people are picturing the colts snow game and it sounds like it’s not gonna be close to that. I remember Brady dropping 5 passing tds on the titans before halftime in a snow game in a game they’d go on to win 59-0 lol Brady could’ve easily broken the single game passing td record that game if they let him

What did the bills gain strategically by the game being moved indoors? We ran the browns out of the building and Chubb averaged a whopping 1.4 yards per carry. I very much doubt they wanted the game to move at all…that three ‘away’ games in 12 days was a logistical mess

I’m genuinely confused by this take…we’re one of the best teams in the league at rushing defense and stuffing short yardage runs, we have a qb with a lot of arm strength that throws a tight spiral and can run like a fullback, we get to practice in the cold/wind and generally know the wind directions this time of year in our own stadium for the kicking/passing games. our offensive line hasn’t been good but if Armstead is out miamis offensive line is even worse. miamis entire offense revolves around the threat of hill/waddle beating the defense deep to open up timing routes in the middle of the field. Tua regularly underthrows tyreek on deep balls even in ideal circumstances and doesn’t have a lot of arm strength to throw out routes. Receivers are going to be struggling with their footing so a lot of the offense for both teams will come down to improvisation. They don’t really run the ball particularly well either so they’re a bit of a one trick pony . I just don’t see a single aspect of this game weather that favors the dolphins. of course you can make the argument that heavy precipitation makes things a bit less predictable and if you’re the better team anyway maybe that’s not necessarily what you’d want but that’s a bit different of a convo. I think people are reading way to into the jets game…if your offensive line has to hold like crazy to slow a 4 man rush down, methodically moving down the field with underneath throws is really really difficult. You’ve got to hit a few chunk plays in a situation like that. The Miami defense is a completely different situation…they send the house to generate pressure so the entire gameplan will be different and there will likely be more looks underneath

People seem to have trouble realizing this lol I don’t believe it even snowed at game time in buffalo for the browns bills game…a dome wouldn’t have changed anything A football game was just a silly use of emergency resources given the situation

Haha yea isnt he the Herbert homer that writes for the ringer. He put Herbert above josh pre season this year so he’s full of it. Josh has outperformed Herbert this year with a similarly messy offensive line and an injured elbow. Idk how you can compare performances between josh outside in bad weather against the jets defense and Herbert against the dolphins in LA.

Seriously…do they think everyone just teleports to the stadium? Lol they still would’ve moved the game last time even if we had a dome

I disagree…it’s all timing routes with tua throwing to a predetermined read/spot on the field. A receiver slipping just a bit would completely derail the play. The bills are exponentially better at improvising. Also even short throws are heavily influenced by wind for a qb without a big arm/tight spiral tua also can’t really throw out routes in ideal circumstances let alone on a cold night when gripping the ball is tough so they’re pretty limited in what spots of the field they attack which defenses have caught on to.

Lol did he have that shirt custom printed for this situation? That is cringey. Can’t wait to see how the league remembers this guy…seems like the offense is in danger of getting figured out and the defense took a huge step backwards since flores left
