That said - for the Dolphins, getting demolished by a division rival in their home opener like that is potentially a huge turning point/setback for the organization. Not sure where they go from here. Think about this: they spent all offseason working on their defense solving Josh Allen and then lost 35-0 without Allen doing too much. Now they have to fix their entire offense, too. They're pretty screwed and it's a huge bonus for the Bills. Expand I'm not totally sure I get the point either, and yes I got the Harding/Shane Shant/Kerrigan incident reference...who didn't? The comment can be interpreted to mean Trubisky is so bad, he may not have been able to win a game in which his opponent scored zero points. So they should have taken Allen out with a pipe blow to the knee to get our backup in the game. I can see why some Bills fans wouldn't get that. 1

May Day 10 Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 Flores has done a good job there, as has Grier. They have turned a laughing stock into a decent team in pretty short order. The two dustings by the Bills in games that matter really hurts though. As does missing the playoffs last season. IMO Brissett is a perfect QB for them right now (not Tua). I thought he played great yesterday, all things considered. They might get a Ryan Fitzpatrick type of bump if Tua misses time. I think they will struggle to get to 10 wins, which could likely miss the playoffs. At that point, they are past the point where everyone is impressed and it is a flat out disappointment. 1

Now we can hope that they waste picks trading for Watson only to find out he will never play another down. Expand I know, but can Ross pull a Jerrah or New Orleans back in the day for Ganga Ricky and give away 5 1sts please for Watson, then Watson gets suspended for a year. (Exaggeration guys) so they are in draft heck forever. 1
Bob in STL Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 Things change week to week and game to game in the NFL. Miami looked bad last year and then they got on a roll. Don’t understand why they got rid of Fitz? I believe Miami will end up closer to.500 than not, a team capable winning games against some good teams.
starrymessenger Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 Talent wise, excluding Allen, the Fins are comparable to the Bills. But they can't, or at least haven't, beaten us in years. Must be we are just a terrible matchup for them, though I'm not sure exactly why. 1 1
Freddie's Dead Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 It's all on Flores. He had a great 14 last year, Fish on the way to the playoffs, then inexplicably starts Tua. Releases Fitz in the off-season, now they have an ersatz 14 in Brisset when Tua goes down. Flores should be fired, but let's hope the Fish keep him, dude is a loser. 1

The only reason Watson is not on the Commissioner’s exempt list is because the Texans handled it. The minute somebody, anybody tries to activate Watson he’s going on that list. Expand It is not that simple otherwise they should start him and let NFL put him on Commissioner’s exempt list. At minimum they get a slot. At maximum his salary is paid for by NFL depending on how they do it. It is amazing that he is getting welfare for a year.

Expand Probably not willing to take the hit - ticket and item sales, press distractions, team turmoil, maybe even protests, etc. Not sure what pressure league is putting on them. They may think he has more trade value this way then putting him in game where he says he did not want to be on team before accusations started.
