I really want to annihilate the Patriots this weekend, but at the same time, I don't want to help the Dolphins. I really don't want the bills to have to play the Dolphins again this season. Let's hope the jets can pull a miracle. Also, is Tua playing this week? 

No, he is not playing.

Thanks for sharing it that way. So the Bengals and Ravens would play two weeks in a row in the same stadium. (And we thought it was wild when the Bills kept the same locker room in Detroit.) 

 

With that scenario I can see the Chargers beating Jax, to then go to KC and knock off KC. 

I hope it goes just like that. And I think jags could give chargers a hard time. But I don’t think ravens can deal with cin without Lamar.

So, if we beat the Pats on Sunday (I'm fairly sure we will, but who knows w/ the circumstances)....is there a chance we'd face them again right away in the 1st round of the playoffs?  Could we end up w/ the 2 seed, and the Pats end up w/ the 7 seed if both Miami & Pitt lose?

 

 

Yes. I think chance of jets winning w Flacco going down to Miami is low . 

 

...also think Brownies beating Pitt in Pitt is unlikely too. Strange energy from Brownies. 

 

Both happening at once even more unlikely. 

 

Pretty happy with notion of playing Pitt or Miami in Buff.

If they do a better job against the run, then they should beat Miami fairly easily. Tua isn't playing. TB has a broken finger on his throwing hand. Miami might have to use a scrub at QB. Pitt with that offense isn't beating the Bills in Buffalo. The Steelers D could keep things close.

the Jets beating the Dolphins would be far from a miracle.

Assuming they haven't checked out already. 

 

the Jets have most certainly not checked out. They are in it this week to beat the dolphins for sure. Their comments and their coaches comments have told me.

Have you seen the jets lately? Do you really have that much faith in Flacco and a team that is basically playing for nothing 

 

Flacco is their best QB, lots of weapons, Great defense. The dolphins suck without Tua. Yes I think the Jets have a more than legit chance at beating the dolphins. Apparently Vegas thinks the Jets have a legit chance too.

They crushed the Fins when they faced Thompson last game. Bridgewater was in for a very short time and got knocked out. I think it's the Fins most lopsided loss of the season.

Since the Dolphins are basically playing with a guy worse than Flacco, I'm picking the Jets. But who knows. Jets are 1.5 point favorites.

Best current healthy QB, maybe.

Man. Dolphins better hope they get a gem out of Thompson and make the playoffs. Rumblings of McDaniel being fired. Going all in with Tua and some of their personnel moves (trading for hill and Chubb and then paying them big $). Beyond their current losing skid, could go sideways fast. 
 

For the record, while I think he’s one strange bird, I think they’d be nuts to get rid of McDaniel after what he’s done for Tua.

If the Dolphins make the playoffs, you have to imagine that the internal pressure to play Tua will be massive.

 

Same with the Ravens and Lamar, as much as possible considering the status of his knee.

 

Hasn't Tua had 3 concussions this year. For his sake he should be shut down for the rest of the season.

The status of his contract****

 

Lamar refusing to take a deal that would have paid him more money than Kyler Murray, and now not playing in huge late season games, tell me all I need to know if I'm the ravens. You already know you're likely never winning a Superbowl with him. Franchise and trade him in the off-season, IMO.

JA17 full participant… nice.

This is great! I was under the impression that Johnson was still under protocol? 

As of this morning he was (according to McD), but he must be out of it now if he was a full participant at a non-walkthrough practice?

No, he is deactivated. White is the starter with Flacco the backup. White has been limited all week in practice so they may have to start Joe.


 

White is out,

 

Flacco to start with Wilson as his back-up.

 

White never should of played last weekend with his ribs - terrible job by Salah.

Thanks for sharing this.  

 

From the ashes of despair they are now riding the wave of optimism and joy.

 

In this week’s PTF’s weekly picks, Mike Florio had this comment that rings so true....

Quote

 

Florio’s take: I feel sorry for anyone who will be facing the Bills for the rest of the season.

 

Florio’s pick: Bills 31, Patriots 20.
