They have a garbage team and their coach isnt changing that with Mac Jones at QB. Their coach also sucks as a GM. Im also beginning to think the coach isnt the greatest of all time either. Look at their clown show coaching staff. No greatest coach of all time puts together that clown show. Who haven't they played tough this year? Probably should have beat the Raiders, probably should have beat Cincy, probably should have beat Minnesota. They're not garbage. The defense is top 5 and capable of keeping any game close. No, thanks - I don't want to see them in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duly noted, but I think this Miami loss is going to bother Tua and get his head messed up and he'll face a Defense more aggressive than yesterday.

Tenhigh Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 1 hour ago, HaldimandBills said: We are finishing 1st or 3rd. We will not finish 2nd. Therefore we either get the bye week or play Baltimore or the Chargers. Anyone cheering for the Patriots to be the sacrificial lamb for either the Bengals or Chiefs is a fool. Miami can at least put a scare into either of those teams and Hill has extra motivation to go off vs. Kansas City. A big part of why Mahomes played so damn well against last year is because he played Pittsburgh the week before instead of the Chargers. I dont want KC or Cincinnati having a freebie in the first round. That is exactly what the Patriots are. A freebie. Sure their defense might do enough to keep the game close for a bit but everyone knows that offense is going to implode Miami can at least quick strike and put some fear into both those team's and not have them looking ahead to the 2nd round where they can prepare for Buffalo two weeks in advance. You seem to have a pretty strong opinion here which is nice, but it doesn't mean that anyone who disagrees with you is a fool. People who think that their opinions are fact are generally the fools themselves. Personally, I think the Dolphins are a tougher match up for the Bills than the Chiefs are right now. But that's like, my opinion, man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, thanks - I don't want to see them in the playoffs. Ok they arent garbage. They are the Bills of the 7-9 / 9-7 era. I havent worried about the Pats for years. The Bills have owned them outside of hurricane wind day. If you dont want to see the Pats in the playoffs then you dont want to see anyone. The Jets defense is great. The Miami offense is capable of putting up a ton of points. The Bengals are comparable to the Bills that have both a good offense and defense. The Chiefs I dont need to explain. The Chargers are capable of pouring it on. There is literally no team you want to see in the playoffs if the ghost of once a dynasty but havent been anywhere close to that in years is what you are worried about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their offense is poop. Miami can score. Also keep the Jets out. That defense to play against is a pain in the ass. Allen's two worst games this year came against the Jets.

Our defense is good but they still have trouble stopping high powered offenses.

I do think coaching and defense become more prominent in the playoffs, but it's not like high-powered offenses haven't been successful. For me, it's probably just that there is too much mental baggage w/ Belichick. I loved beating them like we did in the WC, but I didn't enjoy the day leading up to that. I'd prefer (personally) to just have a playoff game without all of that. He's more capable of getting a middlin' team to overachieve for a game than most other coaches in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's like, my opinion, man. Its called hyperbole and its born out of my frustration of the Chiefs continously waltzing to the AFC Final with zero obstacles in their way outside the Bills last year. Chiefs easily have the worst defense of any AFC playoff team that isn't the Chargers. Miami is not a good match up for them. Give me Waddle and Hill against a rookie secondary all day vs. whatever the Patriots attempt to do. The Jets become the most difficult opponent if they get White back at QB. Jets scare me more than Miami, simply because a grind-it-out game is almost inevitable with them regardless of the opponent. Either way both the Dolphins and Jets you have to game plan for vs. the Patriots who will simply fall apart eventually offensively. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their defense hasnt shut down one decent offensive team all season unless you count the second half of last weeks Bengals game where Burrow went to sleep or the Lions. That Lions team is not the same team we have seen the past 7 weeks. The Patriots are essentially the same team as last year. The one the Bills obliterated. Miami is tumbling down the finish line but the threats are at least there with Hill and Waddle. This isn't about who the Bills match up with worse. I personally believe neither New England or Miami comes into Buffalo and beats them. (Only the Jets could in the AFC East) This about who can give KC or Cincinnati an actual game with an outside chance at an upset. New England is well behind both Miami and the Jets in this case. At least in my humble opinion. Edited December 26, 2022 by HaldimandBills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they had a top defense last year as well iirc and still hung a 40 burger on em. Their offense is far worse this year than last year. As for the Dolphins, people saying Tua can play in bad weather don't remember the only bad weather came with 6 mins left in the 4th quarter. And with Tua getting another concussion, the league may bench him for his own good. They may not even make the playoffs. The Jets bother me more than Miami.
