Have to get out there and get some balance in the offense. Get 26 going early. Also need to tackle well and stop the run. This game won’t be a push over. Getting Singletary going early should also calm Allen's nerves. Pretty hard to get amped up just handing off the ball. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of me thinks the Dolphins are due and will be highly motivated to beat the Bills Sunday, especially a Bills team that is vulnerable offensively at the moment. If Josh and the offensive line play like they did yesterday on Sunday Dolphins will win, IMO. I'm shocked!!! 6 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no such thing as a team being due to beat another team. The Bills will be highly motivated to make sure they don't start the season 0-2. Kind of like we don't match up well with the Steelers, the Dolphins don't match up well against us. No guaranteed victories in the NFL but what about the Dolphins scares you? The strength of their team is the secondary. That doesn't worry me nearly as much as a team with a good pass rush. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see why someone would be worried about us dominating the Dolphins lately and them coming out motivated, but unlike Pittsburgh - and much like us back during the Pats reign - the Dolphins don’t have the dogs Pittsburgh has. Different mentality. I was worried about the fact we had beat them two years in a row. Miami, not so much.

HappyDays Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 2 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: You really comparing that to the Patriots domination over us? Yes, albeit on a much shorter timeframe. McDermott with Allen is 5-1 against them. The lone loss was his rookie year when Clay dropped a game winner and he had zero talent around him in any case. Last year our backups crushed them for an entire half in a game they needed to win. What do you call that if not domination? I'm sure the Dolphins are motivated to beat us. That doesn't change my thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangarang Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) I don’t want to run more just for the sake of doing it. This team is going to live and die by Allen’s arm. We also don’t necessarily need Allen slinging it 30 yards downfield 50 times a game. The Chiefs make a living at turning 3 yards passes into 12 yard gains.

CincyBillsFan Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 4 hours ago, FilthyBeast said: Nearly 24 hours later I'm really not sure how I feel about next week but make no mistake this is pretty much a must win for the Bills because a loss not only puts them at 0-2 but essentially 3 games behind the Dolphins. I was flipping back and forth between the Dolphins/Pats and Browns/Chiefs yesterday but from what I saw the Dolphins defense still looks very good but obviously not quite like the Steelers in terms of the front seven. Tua was solid other than the INT but it still says something to go into Foxboro and win especially on opening day. If the Bills do bounce back and throttle the Dolphins by 2+ scores this week I'll be impressed but something tells me that even if we win it might be another ugly afternoon. The Dolphins gave up nearly 400 yards to the conservative, ball control, rookie QB led NE offense. Sure NE struggled in the red zone but that's expected with a rookie QB. The Dolphins have a solid D but IMO it's no where near as good as a healthy Steeler's D. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont Stop Billeiving Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I like our track record against Miami and think we kind of ran into the perfect storm yesterday. Give me the Bills to win by 10 on Sunday! Another sliver of hope for anyone that's looking for some: as far as we know, we escaped Week 1 without any notable injuries. Seems like it was an absolutely brutal week injury-wise for a lot of teams. Jason Verrett, Raheem Mostert, Braden Smith, Mekhi Becton, Jerry Jeudy, Lamarcus Joyner, Trent Brown, Marcus Davenport, Jeff Okudah, Marshon Lattimore...mostly longer-term injuries as well. For Week 3, Fitzpatrick and Curtis Samuel are already on IR...that defense is scary, but their offense will be really short-handed without those guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Bills offense has been figured out a little going back to last season against the Colts in the WC game…. And something just seemed off with the team yesterday….. Just completely sloppy all the way around and Allen didn’t look his self. Maybe it carries over. I dont think its been figured out. Hit a couple deep passes and not make bone head play calls and we would have been fine. Honestly, tempo of the game was very similar to last years Steeler game, only difference is we melted late instead of get hot. Instead, Steelers got hot. We dont look like a Madden team vs good teams but we were still effective. Just gotta make plays. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the opposite...I think in some ways the Bills have exposed themselves as being way to dependent on Allen. Steelers game planned the same way the Chiefs did against us in the AFCCG(Defensively). It was so similar that it had me saying to myself that the Bills have become predictable. I have half a thought that McD will abandon the pass completely and try to become a power running team against the Dolphins, and they'll be ready for it. The Phins have to know we are going to amp up the running plays this week as a knee jerk reaction from yesterday. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Situations can manifest that knock us off our game. That does not mean its "figured out" so to speak. It just is what it is. I believe this is made worse by our run philosophy. I don't defend this. Teams with balanced defenses have fail safes if the normal path is not working, we don't really. It's a flaw with the offense. Its still an incredible challenge to shut down Allen or our WRs. Allen did play relatively poor in our two playoff wins though. He also didn't play great in the Steelers win last year. I think Daboll needs to mix in 10 more runs per game. I think he needs to relax on some of the cute angle stuff and know when to go straight at the defense better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but our offense looked so unimaginative yesterday aside from the "cutesy" plays that blew up in our face. Four and five sets...very little motion or play action(as if defenses would buy it anyway.) we need to be more balanced with some mis-direction mixed in...I know I'm preaching to the choir but still feeling a little disappointed from yesterdays showing.

His play in that game was elite by any measure: 26/35 for 324 yards and 2 TD's. 11 runs for 54 yards and 1 TD. That's all three TD's and 378 total yards. Allen basically won that game. Sure he was average against Baltimore in a cold wind storm. But even here he did enough to win. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
