Expand They are a decent team with Tua, and it looks like they might be a better team with Bridgewater on one of his good days.

That being said, I expect the Bills to crush the Steelers. They’re out to prove the past 2 week low scoring output is a fluke. Expand I hope you're right that the Bills will bring their A game on Sunday. Not only do they have two not-dominant games to atone for, they have last year's debacle in mind as well. The Bills need to beat the Steelers and the Packers (in Orchard Park) which is very doable, then even if they lose to KC they finish the killer part of their schedule at 5-2, and they're on track to cruise to the AFCE and first or second seed in the playoffs.

Expand I would say they were dominant in the 2nd half last week defensively. I am not surprised the last 2 weeks were close. Both were on the road against good teams. This week I think the Bills will win comfortably. If this game is still in doubt by 3:00 Sunday afternoon I will be surprised and worried as we need this one before going to KC. We can't have a repeat of last year with this team. Quote

Expand Bilgewater is awful…on his best day he sucks—no arm strength, no mobility, nothing to keep a defense honest. I don’t see any way the fish win a single game with him.

Expand He was 7-6 in Denver last year. Miami is a solid team and they play a pretty soft schedule. They will win some games. Id also bet that Tua is probably back next week. I dont really think there is that much drop off. Tua is better at quick strikes on the first read. Bridgewater is better at getting the ball downfield. They are roughly about equal in turnovers. Tua a little better in the TD%. Quote

benderbender Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 As much as I would love to keep the status quo in the division, everyone has to realize that we were the statistical anomaly for 17 years. We can't count on other teams incompetence like our kind that gave Brady 2 free wins a year for a decade. The Jets cleaned up in this year's draft and while they didn't win the lottery with Wilson, they have a solid base to build on. Miami failed themselves into multiple high draft picks over the past few years and even though they wasted their pick on Tua, their defense is stacked. Barring massive mismanagement, the East is not a gimmie anymore. In fact, we should give Josh and Co retroactive credit for making it look so easy in seasons past. I don't know which fan base I'd rather have winning this weekend: the Mike Greenberg's of the world who rotate their show to feature their slightly above average rooting interest, or the Dan Lebatard's who don't blame the coach for putting Tua back in the game week 3 yet blame the NFL and its fans for supporting it. Although I have to say Lebatard's simultaneous homer-ism while still trying to wag a moral finger at his own fanbase is one of the greatest feats of mental gymnastics I've seen. Quote
