Nelius Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 (edited) 1st round seems to be shaping up too nicely to fully rest week 17. Fins again or Steelers seems ideal. Unless we can somehow lock up #2 this week, I'll need to double check that. #2 would be ideal right now. Steelers suck. Tua sucks. My take anyway. Yeah I get the whole give me anybody mentality...but Fish and Steelers are a step below Cleveland and Baltimore right now.

If the Titans beat GB, we won't be able to rest our starters in wk 17 i was just playing with the ESPN simulator. Titans almost have to win this game, or they have a decent shot of missing the playoffs. Also, if they lose and still make the playoffs, there is a chance we would play them in a 2/7 Game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their roster is that bad. Flores deserves to be coach of the year for getting 10 wins out of such a garbage team. He deserves to be fired for how he is handling the QB situation. That's being a bit premature. I hate the Dolphins as much as the next Bills fan, but their defense is still tops in the league. That being said, Tua won't play the whole game. If he struggled in a dome, the elements will definitely put him right back on the bench 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALLEN1QB Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Maybe we should let Miami win next week then play them in the playoffs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7975 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I feel like they are building a good team there in Miami and that they are coached well. On the other hand I think Flores is a terrible coach for playing QB carousel. Worst coaching I have ever seen. You cannot say to your locker room after Fitz start that they are going to the rookie and then pull said rookie for Fitz every time they are down. Most importantly that messes with the QBs, but it also doesn't send a good message to the team IMO. They need to pick something... they are either a team that wants to win football games and make the playoffs or they are a team that wants to groom a rookie QB. Can't do both and not have consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Tua is a dump off artist. Not impressive at all tonight in any facet. He is Captain Checkdown. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patzen Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I would have a tough time stomaching this if I was a Dolphins fan. Tua doesn't come close to giving them the best chance to win against us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
