PetermansRedemption Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) Ah, the classic tank bowl. Who will want to lose more? Must see TV. We are probably rooting for the Dolphins. The farther away from first overall their pick can be the better. Edited October 13, 2019 by Bills2ref 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixxxer Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) I watched some of the Phins at Cowboys, and they played hard on that game. They had a key fumble before the end fo the half on Dalllas' 9 yard line. This is simple, if the Bills don't show up (which is unlikely) the Dolphins can make it a game and be a difficult opponent. If we don't shoot ourselves in the foot, this should be an easy game. as for the tank bowl, my money is on the Skins.

1ManRaid Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Miami win helps our strength of victory or whatever (yes we play them both, but play Miami twice), and hurts their draft pick. Go Rosen, you can be competent! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we pinning for days gone by when WE were in this discussion? Are we so mentally abused by NY taxes & the longest, worst winters in the Nation that we only seek more misery? Are we really doing film study on the only 2 teams left we really should win just by arriving on time? Very well.

I want complete dissertations by all responders on their most compelling analysis of each teams strengths and your perceived weaknesses we can exploit when trying to beat them. LOL.....Sorry you get a serious answer here. The problem with the Bills is that, as long as we've avoided a winning season or playoffs....we've also very seldom been in the Tankbowl discussion. We've perennially been a 6-9 win team. That's why we needed a GM with a fresh approach who would try something different to move the needle for us. Will it work? Stay tuned.... Second part of dissertation: I think that "win by arriving on time" is a dangerous attitude for the Bills and I sure hope no one inside OBD has it. Miami doesn't look to me like a team that's checked out. They are reasonably disciplined - fewest penalties in the league on both offense and defense. They're 0-4, but they've also lost to NE (like we did), Ravens Cowboys and Chargers - two teams leading their divisions and one team that thinks it's better than it's 2-3 record suggests. We've beaten the 0-4 Jets, the 0-5 Bengals, and the 2-2 Titans. So despite the Firesale they've held on good players, as is often the case we may not be as good as our record suggests and they may not be as bad. Washington on the other hand, looks to me like a Hot Mess. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do however hope rosen gets out of there injury free, could care less how he plays good or bad, just want him in the game next sunday where the bills can expose and annihilate his ass.

Two reasons that you could desire a dolphins win and have already been stated in this thread. 1. A dolphins win will help our strength of schedule more than Washington in a hypothetical tie for wildcard spot. It will not change anything between us and NE. 2. A dophins win will reduce their chance of #1 draft pick, theoretically decreasing their competivness in future years that we play them. Both are fairly small benefits, root for who you want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Redskins have a mediocre OL. Miami's appears barely functional. Pressure pressure next week. Looks like first downs will be at a premium in this "game." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
