No one can sit here and say Dolphins haven’t looked VERY good the first two weeks. I hope the Bills destroy them next week, but damn. Yes you can. They looked blah last week. Tua looked unimpressive at best. Made several bad plays against NE that could have turned out badly for him but didn't. Against Baltimore he looked bad in the first half. It wasn't until McDaniel realized Baltimore's secondary was a trainwreck and started taking advantage of blown coverages and poor play by them that he looked good. Sadly that won't happen too often. Did you watch both games in full? Because if you did I am unsure how you could have that opinion or I just assume you have a casual understanding of football. 1 minute ago, TBBills said: Hard to panic when you have Josh Allen Pretty much.

Every team has obvious flaws and Dolphins are loaded on Offense. Is Tua benefiting from a few WRs and a TE who are elite at RAC? Hell yes. But he’s still making correct reads and putting the ball in the correct spot for that insane RAC to happen.

Did you also see him force his head coach to go for it twice on 4th down on his own side of the field(they converted both times luckily) because of terrible ball placement on short throws that required his WRs to make great one hand catches but also pulled them away from the first down marker? Should have been easy conversions. Those type of things matter and will come back to bite you more times than not. If you think blown coverages and terrible defensive back play is the norm against them and that is more important than basic fundamentals I'm not sure what to tell you. You saw a once in a career performance from him today. Take a bow Tua. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still struggle to pass protect when you get them in obvious dropback situations on offense and their defensive backfield is vulnerable. That isn't to say they don't look dangerous on offense. Their receivers have so much speed, and Tua had some really good plays today. Especially second half. But I don't think they are in the elite category in the AFC yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when tua looked average at best for 6 quarters this season. If tua lights it up against the bills for 4 quarters against the bills next week, then I might start to have concern. Not a lot of concern, but some concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimeTime101 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Tua had an amazing have/ 1/3rd of a game. I give Tua props for it! Thats where the props end. Tua had 2 horrible INT against bottom level defense. Miami will make the wildcard with what they have... but this business of talking about us splitting game with Miami? Like KC, Miami has yet to play a good defense. We will have plenty of film on how to stop Miami and I am not worried at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only thing I could assume. Because if you watched the first game and a half of Tua I have no earthly idea how you could come away from that thinking he played well. I mean great for him, he took advantage of terrible DB play by Baltimore...perhaps some of the worst I've ever seen for an entire half, but I guess we will see next week.

BigDingus Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 25 minutes ago, TBBills said: Hard to panic when you have Josh Allen That's my sentiment. Confident Allen (and this team in general) is superior to the Dolphins, but that doesn't mean the Dolphins aren't a much better team this year. And is anyone really that confident in our starting CBs being a 2020 7th rounder in Dane Jackson & a rookie 6th rounder in Benford, matching up against Waddle & Hill? Elam will improve, but it's clear the reports of his offseason struggles were legit, so that leaves us with our most senior CB being Taron Johnson to help. I still think the Bills win, but the Ravens were up 28-7 at half, then the next 2 quarters the Dolphins dropped 35 points on them. If anything, they've proven their offense has WAY more potential than they did the last couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Told ya'all this was going to happen. Game managers and fringe starters don't put up 6 TD's (something JA17 has never done) and nearly 500 yards. Congrats to Tua for taking the year 3 leap like Allen did. Bigger question is how on earth is the Bills secondary going to have any chance against slowing down Waddle/Hill next week?

Dane Jackson and 2 rookies against Hill/Waddle = not a good thing trust me. If the Bills win it will be one of those 42-40 type of scores. Dane Jackson is good. Even with the CBs being a weak link on our defense, they aren't going to be covering waddle and hill 1 on 1. Poyer and Hyde are going to cover them as well. They are going to double hill and waddle and then they will probably single cover gesicki, who is probably the one we should worry more about. Miami has a weak oline and with our strong dline, we should be able to out pressure on tua forcing his throws off time. This is a team sport. it isn't like our CBs are going to be single covering these guys by themselvers. They will have a lot of help from the safeties and a lot of help from the pass rush. And probably a lot of help from Milano and Edmunds who are also good in coverage. And the strong pass rush is another bonus. You are giving miami too much credit for only 2 quarters of good football against a bad defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
