LMAO, now you're saying the weather almanac is lying and should take the word of a football player who's been away from Miami🤣 OR, maybe it's exactly as I said...players becoming acclimatized. Rousseau has been up in Buffalo, so of course when he comes back to Miami it going to feel hotter and he's not going to be acclimatized to that temp or humidity. You clearly don't get it and when you're now claiming the weather almanac is lying, probably time to re-evaluate your position. You also clearly need to educate yourself about acclimatization. https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/mining/userfiles/works/pdfs/2017-124.pdf

Yep, and we've really gotten spoiled with it IMO. Expecting superman Josh every week is just not realistic expectations.

I just looked it up.... Bills played Miami September 21, 2021 at Hard Rock. 1 P.M. kickoff. Weather 88 degrees and sunny with a dewpoint of 78, which translates into 90% humidity. Yesterday, Bills played Miami September 25, 2022 at Hard Rock. 12 P.M. kickoff. Weather 89 degrees and sunny with a dewpoint of 78. Last season, in almost identical weather conditions, Bills win 35-0, but I'm betting you never mentioned weather once. I wonder why. Now, take a seat, champ.

No, it's because the Fins players are acclimatized to that weather, where the bills are not. Own what you did or didn't do on the field. I love how you are pretending this is the first time we've traveled to Miami early in the season when it's hot.

Excuses. Blaming anything and everything instead of what they actually did on the field. The offense was on the field for 42 minutes running long drives including a 20 play one...so tell me, what difference would shade have made?

Bills players will be much more acclimatized to the cold vs players living and playing in 80-degree weather every week. This is a proven scientific fact and claiming otherwise is simply ignorance. I grew up in Syracuse and now live in FL. When I lived in NY, the cold didn't phase me. I go there now in the winter and freeze my butt off. https://time.com/5712904/adjust-to-cold-weather/ I literally saw them on TV. Imagine claiming that because they aren't there in a tweet you posted, that means they were never there. They are portable you know and can literally be setup in a couple minutes.

It's a plain and simple fact that people who are used to the cold will handle it better than someone acclimatized to 80-degree weather.

And that's all it is is an excuse. At the end of the game, you either played better than the other team and made fewer mistakes or you didn't and lost. Trying to blame this or that is simply not taking responsibility and not being accountable for how you executed or failed to execute on the field. And as far as the sun goes, the players had popups to sit under so they weren't directly in the sun, not to mention the misting fans and all the electrolytes they can handle. Maybe it had to do more with our offense being on the field for 42 minutes and not being able to come away with points rather than trying to blame it on the orange ball in the sky.

Exactly. Luckily for us, Josh is one of the best QBs that can throw on the run, but Josh throwing on the run should be the exception, not the norm and it seems to be becoming more frequent. They become improv plays by Josh and Bills fans have gotten spoiled with Josh's ability to create. In reality, those are not high percentage plays and we need to be able to run plays where Josh has the proper time to let a play develop out of the pocket and deliver the ball on true, designated routes of the receivers. Josh scrambling around and creating on the fly, while fun to watch when it works, is not something that we should rely on consitently.

Let the media say what they are going to say. They all do it for clicks and reactions. So what. What I do know is we can't keep losing these close games or we are going to find ourselves on the road again in the postseason and have only ourselves to blame for not winning the games we should. They have a 6 foot tall 250 pound fullback that they obviously don't think can pick up a yard in a goal to go situation.

When you have no real threat of a running game and the defense is expecting pass and flushing your QB out of the pocket quite often, what's his completion percentage supposed to be? Once he's flushed out, the entire play now becomes Josh improv and all what he's able to do on the run. A QB forced to throw on the run a lot is not going to be a QB with a super awesome completion %. Josh is better at it than most, but it's not supposed to work that way. He needs time to execute the play as drawn with the receivers running their designated routes...not just become a play of back yard football with the QB running around hoping a receiver can get open who's no longer running the play as designed.

You're right, Ken seems to be trying to limit the amount of runs Josh does, but he's still being forced to scramble out of the pocket more than he should be. Why? IMO because we can't keep the D honest with a running game, so they are expecting pass every play and getting pressure up the middle or off the edge, forcing Josh to get out of the pocket. That needs to change.

I agree with most of that except the Big Ben reference. Big Ben had one helluva NFL career IMO and will be in the HOF.

Bro, you had no argument in the first place. You clearly either didn't read the tweet completely or you didn't understand what you were reading because the bills were throwing the ball down there, not running it.

63 pass attempts. It's pretty clear the coaching staff expected Josh to play miracle worker once again because their own game plan made the O-line and receivers barely even able to stay on the field.

No, it shows they are more likely to score a touchdown running the ball out of shotgun on the 1 yard line, which the Bills didn't even do. They literally threw the ball on 2 of the final three downs if memory serves me correctly. Did you actually read what you posted? Oof

But we didn't do what you just posted, so that doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

No, I'm actually posting from reality where you haven't given the advantage to the Defense because they have much less ground to have to cover and considering what they got out of that drive, my point stands.

Hell, then snap it to Josh in shotgun and let him dive over the line, whatever. Throwing the ball where the receivers don't have a ton of room to get separation from defenders and an INT is much more likely to happen makes no sense. Inside the 1 is a running play unless you're trying the fake handoff to the TE or lineman or something. Inside the 1 yard line is a running play. 3 straight if necessary. Period.

If people are seriously trying to claim at the NFL level, we can't even snap the ball under center to get less than a yard, that raises a lot more questions than it answers.

That's because unlike our unforgivable defensive play calls in the 13 seconds, the Fish weren't allowing our receivers to run free down the field like we allowed KC's receivers to do against us in those final moments.

Because I'm telling you what I've seen in over 40 years of watching college and professional football. A bad snap in shotgun is far more problematic in a goal to go situation, since you will likely to be forced to settle for a field goal at best if you didn't turn the ball over.

I mean whatever you want to call it, it was the wrong call. If your secondary is depleted with injuries, the last thing you want to do is give the opposing QB time to find a hole. The way you do that is with pressure, which is supposed to be a strength of this team this season, but when you're only rushing 3, I really hope they weren't expecting any sort of pressure that would force Tua into an early/bad throw.

My take is the same as yours. He maintains control when both feet touch the ground. At that point, it's a touchdown since both stills from the replay shows he had already tucked the ball away when his first (left) foot touches the ground and still has it tucked away in the same arm when his second (right) foot touches. I'm not buying that either. I would argue it's easier for a replacement center to snap the ball under center than in shotgun. I've seen backup centers snap the dang ball over the QB's head in shotgun formation and it results in either a turnover or a huge loss of yardage.

Because they're gassed and barely even able to stay in the game.
