I have never seen worse DB play in a quarter than I did that game. It was historically bad. That should NEVER happen in an NFL game. Never. Inexcusable and it had nothing to do with their receivers or anything else. It was 100% epic failure on the Ravens. Honestly it reminded me a lot of the Houston Oilers DB play in the Greatest Comeback game in the 2nd half, except they condensed that to a single quarter.

Miami has tried playing man and using Cover 0 blitzes many times and Allen has decimated them on it. Get ready to see a lot of deep over routes if they play the same way again. Allen is both one of the best QBs in the NFL against man coverage and the blitz. Good luck if they think that is a way to win.

On paper, Baltimore's defense might be better than ours; they obviously fell apart in the 2nd half with some strategic mistakes as well as just some blown coverages, but people are acting like their secondary is a joke. They have one of the best corner duos in the NFL and a good group of safeties (not Hyde/Poyer level, but still very good). There's a reason people believed Baltimore would be a top 5 defense this year and possibly #1. They have a lot of talent on that side of the ball even with the injuries they've had. Having said that, I'd be very surprised if Buffalo makes the same mistakes Baltimore made yesterday and I don't think it's a hot take to say Tua probably won't throw for 400+ and 6 TDs again next week. I think our defense will make things much harder for Tua than Baltimore did. Hill, Waddle, and to an extent, Gesicki, are good enough that they might still be successful against us but obviously we're rightfully confident our offense will put up points too. Long story short: Buffalo remains the better team, but Miami should have a good chance at making the playoffs IMO and I think both Tua and their defense are better than a lot of Bills fans give them credit for. I'd be disappointed and a little surprised if we lose next week, but Miami is a good team; they're probably going to beat some good teams like they did yesterday. https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/team/_/view/defense On what paper?

On paper vs actual play, the latter wins out and it's not even close. That defense has played 2 garbage offenses despite what Tua did. If they don't understand it takes playing 4 quarters of football and executing, neither on paper or actual play matters, they'll lose. They played not to lose and got hung for it. Not sure how anyone could remotely even think Baltimore's defense might be better than ours let alone actually say it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFFALOTONE Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Listening to WGR this morning and they had the Fins beat reporter on who said Tua is the most accurate and efficient short passer in the last two seasons...fair enough. Then said his softening of the Ravens defense is what allowed them to take big shots in the 4th quarter. So being below mediocre in the 1st half allowed them to succeed in the 2nd... got it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLFan Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 The Dolphins have not played a good team yet. NE is awful, and Baltimore is not much better. At least they have a QB who can make plays with his legs. The Ravens Defense is more than suspect. Anything can happen obviously, but the Bills, even with a handful of backups in the game, is a far superior team to the Dolphins with superior coaching. Quality will out. Tua will have hard time completing passes to waddle and hill from his backside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tua was good enough to take advantage of poor DB play in the second half which gave him spectacular stats but he didn't play particularly well for the entire game. That doesn't prove he'll be a great QB. It does suggest that he's probably at least a decent or better QB. He needs a bigger sample size. Frank Reich played a great half of football in the Comeback Game, but he never regularly put on that kind of performance even when he was a starter.

Their pass defense is 100 yards worse per game than last year when it was 32nd in the NFL. I'm not sure how you could begin to think that. Their defense ranked 25th total last year, this year it is dead last. I'm not sure what paper you are looking at but I think you might not know how to read it.

I get it. There are still some pundits who think Josh Allen's good play is a mirage while no one I've heard has criticised Tua at all, even when there are clear issues with his game which he clearly needs to work out. It irks me no end. I can see someone overcompensating for their anger at some of the crap Josh still gets in spite of lf his objectively good play to be too hard on Tua.

Bill Clinton plays a lot of golf. As the story goes, one of his catchphrases occurs when he absolutely duffs one, then drops a ball for a mulligan and hits a great shot. He'll say "same guy... same guy," i.e. the same guy who made that miserable swing, also hit one right on the screws. What's the point? Consistency. If golfers are consistently good, they're just good. If they're occasionally great, they're still just good, they ain't going to Q school. There's no narrative to saying Tua's had one great quarter of football out of eight so far, it is what it is. I don't see where 1/8th top-level play is MVP caliber. He'll need more than that game-to-game going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistofFate Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I'm amazed about the media frenzy over Tua from 1 elite level game. Ravens completely collapsed in that game. I watched the game and turned it off in the 3rd quarter because it was such a domination I couldnt watch it anymore. 1 crazy quarter of play doesnt put your name in the hat for an elite level qb or mvp candidacy. Buffalo has dominated miami for multiple games in a row and until that changes I'm not sure how anyone could pick against us. Buffalo is blowing top level competitors off the field thus far, on every side of the ball. Yet Miami is going to get us? Sorry, I dont believe the hype.

Sure, they have a new face in Hill...but...Mahomes isn't throwing him passes. As far as the Rams and Titans not posing as much as a threat, I dont understand that logic at all. Rams are the Super Bowl champs with Stafford leading the way Kupp and company, and King Henry ran wild on us last year. Miami has some good players, but that team is not nearly as refined as the Titans, AFC top seed last year, or the Rams, the Super Bowl champions. We made both look silly. I just can not picture the bills losing this game without having some kind of monumental melt down. Sugar High Allen is gone, we have way too many weapons, a better defense and better coaching. Just relax and enjoy the beating we lay on them this Sunday. Edited September 22, 2022 by TwistofFate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the Rams and Titans not posing as much as a threat, I dont understand that logic at all. Rams are the Super Bowl champs with Stafford leading the way Kupp and company, and King Henry ran wild on us last year. Miami has some good players, but that team is not nearly as refined as the Titans, AFC top seed last year, or the Rams, the Super Bowl champions. We made both look silly. I just can not picture the bills losing this game without having some kind of monumental melt down. Sugar High Allen is gone, we have way too many weapons, a better defense and better coaching. The Titans are terrible. Without AJ Brown they pose little to no threat in the passing game. All the Bill's needed to do was stop Henry which they did. The Rams only had Kupp as a receiving threat. Robinson is overrated and often disappears in games. Kupp is excellent and he was successful statistically. However, he's not a speed burner like Hill. Hill presents different problems for the Bills D. Couple that with Waddle and it's a very difficult task for the Bills secondary. Lastly, the Rams Oline is a work in progress. The Bills front just overpowered them. The Dolphins do have a couple of exploitable offensive lineman. Hopefully, the Bills can pressure Tua into mistakes. Frankly, I see a hard fought game. I'm not getting too high on either of the team's 2 wins. Each game presents another and different challenges. I don't see a Bills blowout here.

Pokebball Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 1 hour ago, TwistofFate said: I'm amazed about the media frenzy over Tua from 1 elite level game. Ravens completely collapsed in that game. I watched the game and turned it off in the 3rd quarter because it was such a domination I couldnt watch it anymore. 1 crazy quarter of play doesnt put your name in the hat for an elite level qb or mvp candidacy. Buffalo has dominated miami for multiple games in a row and until that changes I'm not sure how anyone could pick against us. Buffalo is blowing top level competitors off the field thus far, on every side of the ball. Yet Miami is going to get us? Sorry, I dont believe the hype. I think this game is going to be a beat down. 38-17 Bills. He'd deserve more credit if it was one good game, rather than one good quarter. Is Tua more represented by the other 7 quarters than the 1 quarter of last week's game? I think Tua is more defined by the NE game where he was more of a game manager, having thrown for 1 TD. I'm willing to cut him some slack and dismiss the first three quarters of last weeks game. That 4th quarter this last week, however, is the real outlier for him. It's a possibility that what has held Tua back, if anything, is from the neck up. I've heard some talking heads suggesting that McDaniels has worked with Tua on the mental aspect of the game, helping Tua settle rather than trying to push or force a game. These heads said that perhaps that is what happened in the 4th quarter last week. We'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
