Virgil Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 (edited) Well, as many of us thought, no McCoy, no offense. Bills failed to break 30 points and the defense got absolutely steam rolled. Some players came to play, some didn't even suit up (Yes, !@#$ you Dareus). The Dolphins beat us today with our own gameplan. Ran the ball, made the passes when they needed to at the end to seal it. 4-3 with our next 3 games coming up is a huge blow. We now need to pull out at least 2 wins from the Pats, Steelers, Raiders, Seahawks, and Bengals. !@#$ Dareus Go ahead TD run was right down his area. I'm sure I'm being insensitive about a man's injury, but the overall situation with him this season has been a joke. Shaq Owned early on 3rd down Running into the blocks, not trying to get the edge Looks slow in pursuit - Tanny outran him on two major plays McCoy No burst, left at start of 2nd half, never should have played. Didn't seem like they were really trying to run with him. What was the point? Poor choice and could've hurt us a lot Lorax - MVP almost sack, forced bad throw 1st drive. Had to be held on the first drive. Lorax blew up the 3rd down on 2nd drive, had to be held Hit Tanny hard on deep throw on 3rd series Great KR tackle after TD (negated by offsides) Run stuff in 2nd half on first drive was brutal! Never gave up on his sack. Consistent and fights Even made a tackle on a punt Goodwin Two good catches, one with adjustment Catching with his hands. Running better routes, really coming along. That deep td, the minute it left TT's hands I thought he had to overthrow whoever it was too. That was crazy how quick he got deep. I yelled WOW as it happened Tyrod Doing what needs to be done and played like he has all season. Needs the support of a run game and defense. Got neither today Hunter started out strong with TT Rapport and then faded away Broke out of pocket when didn't need to on 3rd series Great throw to Clay, staying in the pocket, taking the hit Final Drive – 3 and out Clay didn't break on screen play fast enough 2nd down play, breaks sack, but then throws it away with time to make something happen 3rd down Before timeout – TT gets in Powell's face about somethinig Throw was good, but choice was poor. DB had safety help and the S easily made the play. Arabian wind, The needle's eye is thin, The ships of state sail on mirage, And drown in sand, Out in no-man's land where Allah does command. What good is spilling blood? It will not grow a thing; Taste eternity the swords sing: Blues of Allah In 'sh'Allah. They lie where they fall, There's nothing more to say, The desert stars are bright tonight lets meet as friends, The Flower of Islam, The Fruit of Abraham. The thousand stories have come round to one again, Arabian night, Our Gods pursue their fight, What fatal flowers of darkness bloom from seeds of light. Bird of paradise fly in white sky, Blues for Allah In 'sh'Allah, Let's see with our heart, These things our eyes have seen, And know the truth must still lie somewhere in between. Under eternity, under eternity, under eternity blue, Bird of paradise fly in white sky, Blues for Allah In 'sh'Allah. Defense Pass rush only around 20% of the time Run defense took every other series off Aaron Williams Hit better not lead to Duke Williams messing up Even when sending the house, dolphins o-line didn't let anyone break free (no jailbreaks) Run Defense just terrible. The 4th quarter Ajayi run can't happen Defense couldn't get themselves off the field. Can't put it on the offense 3rd down pay with 6 minutes left – Tannehil outruns Shaq again Final TD was just a perfect example of a gassed defense. Gave up over 200 rushing yards Gave up 22 4th quarter points! Offensive Line Mills owned by Wake 1st drive twice! Got better for a bit, then fell apart at the end Hard to block when you run the playclock down to 1 second and let the defense know when they can Tee off. Shades of Greg Roman DIFFERENCE IN THE GAME – 2 3rd down plays (sack, couldn't get 2-3 yards) that prevented long field goals Blocked Punt – Anyone else worried it would be a flag because we are Bills. Special teams was only positive team to get a positive grade today Random 2nd Half Tragedy Points that just stood out at the time 3rd and short on first play was almost 2 yards and they run a FB sneak?! Terrible call On same call against gilmore, huge hold on dolphins offense. BS miss Great adjustment by Corey Grahm to break up deep throw No idea what Gillislee was doing on the direct snap play Offense getting to the ball with under 10 seconds again.

Virgil Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 This game hurst my feelings. We were physically dominated. I don't know what to say. Just beat up Yeah. I'm trying to keep it positive and unbias but it's hard today. Just got manhandled. I will say this though. I was more down on us after 0-2 and Rex got them back up. Here's hoping.

Benjamin Franklin Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 The decision to play McCoy was a problem for other reasons. It put a guy in the backfield who could not perform. Gillislie would have been a much better choice from the beginning. He's not as talented but the Bills could have relied on him. Don't blame Shaq on not catching Tannehill. Tannehill was outrunning everyone and Shaq got in on a few plays in pursuit. Not ready to make any judgments on his first game. !@#$ Dareus is right. HE won't be back for a while and that's a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffismagic Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 The Bills defense got pushed around and on the final TD the Bills were not ready when the ball was snapped. Dolphins did everything to give away a game they should have won but we were not ready. Lorax is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My basic take - TT and glass (scary right?) were the best players on O today. Don't let the obsessive Tyrod doubters skew reality ( to those who didn't see the game). Defense sucked. O-line sucked both run and pass blocking..TT had about 1 second in the pocket on avg on many pass plays. No wr's to speak of healthy and no Shady. There's your story of the game. pretty simple really. The bad part is they won't likely have enough fire power to hang with NE next week either though, nor Seattle the next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihilarian Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 The Dolphins rushed for 256 yards and Ajayi had 214 yards by himself with a 7.4 yard per carry average!! It was 267 yards of offense for Buffalo to 454 for Miami. This was against the 21st ranked offense in the league and their defense is ranked 26th. Time of possession 22:58 Buffalo vs 37:02 Miami. Needless to say that LeSean McCoy makes that offense work when he brings his A game and when he doesn't they have a tough time moving the ball. Yes, it doesn't help to have Sammy, Woods not playing. What bugged me about today's game was the defense wasn't able to stop Ajayi at all and his 214 yards rushing helped carry them to the win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VADC Bills Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Just a superstitious observation. Whenever I see the Bills trot out on the field wearing the blue pants and white tops, we always seem to lose. They look great but lets kill that color combo for the season.
