buffalo2218 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) I think what some people are forgetting, Dolphin fans completely ignoring, is that the Bills defense probably played better than the other division teams last weekend. I'm pretty sure McDermott and Frazier don't plan on just rushing 4 the whole game. For all the talk about pressuring Allen, I think Tua is in a worse position pressure wise. He's not exactly fleet of foot Edited September 14, 2021 by buffalo2218 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not exactly fleet of foot Maybe some, but I'm not one. I was happy with how the D played even with the 2nd half not being as good. I thought the D certainly did well enough to win the game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's not broke don't fix it...? I feel your pain; Miami was averaging 4 ypc against NE then stopped running the ball for whatever reason smh.

HappyDays Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 3 hours ago, oldmanfan said: The key to winning football games has always been and will always be about whether you beat the guy across from you. I'll be watching for the O line to win matchups this week. They got steamrolled by the Pittsburgh front this past Sunday, and McD rightfully called them out. Will they rally and beat the guy in front of them more times than not, or will they get beat again individually and collectively? That's the key to this game and most of the remaining ones on the schedule. Not a lot of guys in this league are beating Watt and Heyward in a one on one matchup. That's on Daboll and Allen to work around the problem. Daboll has to keep a RB or TE in as an additional blocker; Allen needs to stay patient and make quick short throws before the pass rush gets home. Luckily against Miami we won't have that kind of pass rush to contend with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you predict the negative, you're going to let us know as much as you can. I've lost count how many times you've told everyone on here you wouldn't be surprised if the Dolphins beat us. Is complaining a contest you're looking to win or something? We all on here watch the Bills and hate when they lose....we just don't act like a Karen towards the Bills like you do.

newcam2012 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) This game worries me. The Bills offense hasn't really clicked or played well since when? Our run game or lack of, problems on the Oline, and the blueprint is evident on how to stop Daboll's scheme. No doubt the Dolphins will follow the Ravens, Chiefs, and Steeler blueprint. It's no genius game plan. Hoping they don't have the personal to match up. The Bills offense needs a jump start big time! The Bills defense has issues as well. Can they generate a pass rush? Stop the run? Secondary is an issue as well. Look no further than Wallace. Home opener for a Miami team and they know us well. I can see a very tight game. My prediction is Bills win ugly 20- 17. Think Allen and the offense struggle on the road. Bills defense comes up with big play and hit game winning FG.

Just ask Tom Brady. Derrick Carr just shredded the elite Balt defense. At some point, the Bills fans should realize that their offense has been exposed and decline in production is not absurd. No run game or threat of it and coupled with a porous Oline are the main issues. If Allen isn't super human the Bills are likely to lose or struggle to win. That's exactly what we witnessed on Sunday against the Steelers. Edited September 14, 2021 by newcam2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. If you understood football and our defense in Miami you'd know that's our MO...we are designed to keep things in front of us, cause turnovers, and play strong red zone D. This ain't gonna be like last year either, we have receivers, and a mostly healthy team. This will be a game, but I like my Fins by a tuddy in the blistering Florida heat.

PatsFanNH Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 It will be a tough matchup. The Dolphins have decent CB and a couple really good WR. Will Allen and/or your OC be willing to take what they give them or will they force the ball. I think on D whoever White isn’t covering is going to be Tua favorite target will your CB step up? my prediction — Bills 21 phins 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious to see if Frazier relies on the front 4 for pressure. I'm not sold on Tua being able to scan the field and go through his progressions but to be fair, I'm not sure his O line will give him the time to either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
