RunTheBall Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 So many fans have forgotten our history. All that matters is we got the W. Style points don’t matter. The game is week to week and we overcame a horrendous first half on offense to come out in the second half and dominate. You can’t expect every time we play the Dolphins we are going to put up 35 points and blow them out. Crappy Bills teams used to play NE tight for a half and guess what, they’d come out in the second half and put us away. Good teams find a way to win against lesser opponents and this team is good. Do we have things to work on? Absolutely. O-line was horrendous in the first half and our lack of a running game is going to cost us in the playoffs if we don’t figure out a way to at least make opponents respect it. The bottom line is we have a franchise QB who can take a game over and put the team on his back when needed. The key is not to need him to do that too often. 8 1 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O-line didn't play well, but Davis was definitely a factor. By the way, hoping we get our own version of a Raekwon Davis in the draft next year (and an IOL that can block the real one!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Bengals lost to the Jets. Weird stuff happens. We’ve beaten the Dolphins by an average of 20 points per game in the last 3 years. We can’t destroy them every time.

Yea seemed like a lot more underneath routes / screen (attempts) lol still took some josh Allen magic to get the ball into the end zone though he had a huge scramble for a third down conversion where any other human would’ve gotten sacked and he got absolutely hammered on a deep post to diggs for a td Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 1 hour ago, Dr. K said: I was wrong to speculate that Tua might break out in this game, but for most of it he played well enough keep the outcome in doubt. No he did not. The Bills choked away an entire half of football and he couldn't do anything with that gift. He did what he has done all year - throw mostly accurately to his 1st read when kept clean. When push comes to shove he cannot rise above the play call or consistently push the ball down field. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact the Daboll didn't make any adjustments over the bye and continues to hold this offense back with unbelievably horrendous play calling is a big concern. Hopefully Allen continues to bail him out because we need another team to hire him this off-season. Kind of hard to tell when the interior pressure was crushing us…you’re not supposed to win games like that and we’re winning them by 2 scores this year. You can game plan til the cows come home but a lot of the game comes down to your big guys up front winning and somehow we have an absolute freak at qb that can mask a lot of that Edited October 31, 2021 by Generic_Bills_Fan 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaaadThingsMan Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Flores was late getting to the pedestal for his presser and said he was just sitting there. Taking this loss tough. That team gave their all in that game to not lose their 7th in a row this season and to Buffalo overall. No concerns. The offense got it done from mid 3rd to end of game and the defense hung in there tough all game and made some plays. Another amped up team leaves disappointed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roundybout Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 From where we were sitting in the end zone (tunnel side) we could literally watch Tua's interception as soon as it left his hand. What a pathetic throw that was; Poyer had a running start on it lmao 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) The afterglow: 1. Not at all what we were expecting, but heck, I'll take it. 5-2 looks pretty good at this juncture. 2. When it mattered, the Offense got it going. Give Miami partial credit. They were playing for pride. 3. DeVante Parker has always been a problem for this team. 4. Beasley is a warrior. 5. Someone explain to me why they thought running the ball was going to be a good idea with three of the five OLINE positions shuffled. 6. Sweeny got game 7. I really thought Allen got hurt when he just fell down late in the game out of the play. 8. Glad to have the Phins off the schedule. They are not as bad as their record. 9. The Defense rose to the occasion today. Oliver was very noticeable. 10. What's that make Buffalo, something like +17 in turnover margin?? 11. Josh wildly throwing the ball around today on at least three different plays was concerning. 12. Buffalo gifted three plays by Miami today: missed FG, Tua INT and late first half fumble in the red zone.
