They’re playing a team that lost 5 straight, barely beat a team that had nothing to play for, didn’t even score 10 points in said game…what are you scared of? Tua? That’s what scares you??

It’s moreso our defense than Tua that scares me. They put up some offense in Buffalo not too long ago.

Will Tua be playing?

Bills -7.5 line suggests Tua is expected to play.  If Skylar Thompson is starting, Bills are at least -11.5…

[Bills!Win!]

Will Tua’s non concussion injury be ok for wild card weekend?

Sure.  But fans are banking on a Flacco led Jets team to win?

Miami is a playoff team and the Jets are not.

 

Well that non-playoff Jets team to the Dolphins now to the last second.

I think Mostart broke a finger and left the game. 
 

The only injury that matters is Tua

Tyreek had an injury too-2 weeks n a row he hurt his ankle I believe. That injury definitely matters 

[peterpan]

When will we find out game time? I have a family weekend next week and I need to plan my escape

Bills are going to get MIA-CIN-KC on their road to the Super Bowl.

 

What a gauntlet. What an opportunity to prove they’re the best team in the league.

Possibly the 3 best offenses in the playoffs, other than ours of course. Our defense will have to show up and cover better than they have in recent weeks. Having Hyde and Von would have made facing these offenses slightly less daunting.

Without a doubt.

 

There will be miraculous recoveries across the board for Miami.

[BillsFanSD]

Of course the Bills should win, but Tua/Hill/Waddle gives that team a puncher's chance against anybody, including us.  Nothing wrong with noting that Pitt and NE would have been easier matchups.  Just a slightly tougher obstacle standing between us and the Bengals.

Miami matches up well with us though. And they will likely have Tua. 

They don’t really imo…their defense is whack and we can get after their oline.  We don’t have talented dbs right now but tua is a one read guy and it isn’t too difficult to disguise coverages on him.  Not saying Miami can’t win the game, but NE is a tougher matchup imo.  They were mauling us up front today.  Steelers wouldn’t have been a walk in the park either.  They’ve got good receivers and a tough front 7

Earning the #2 seed is fitting without having to play the Bengals. Not ideal, but fitting. No asterisks. No excuses. Bills have everything in front of them. And a fortunate AFC championship scenario to boot.

Bills-Bengals second round game will be an absolute classic…

Miami scored essentially 9 points today, against the Jets, AT HOME.

 

Why are we freaking out about them?

They’ll be at full strength next weekend.

I've never seen so much negativity about a 13-3 team in my life. 

you’ve never been on a 13-3 message board then

Our offense should have their way with the Dolphins. The scary thing about the Dolphins obviously is that they can score from anywhere on the field on any play. They can win on what you would normally call fluke plays except for the Dolphins they are not flukes because they can get two or three of them a game.

It's not just the Dolphins either though. It's about us. Despite this winning streak.

 

I feel like this game with NE was way too close. NE had a legit chance to win if their ST's were better.

 

There are too many games where the Bills start out slow. For instance, Detroit and Bears games. To beat a good to great team, we can't be starting out slow or making dumb mistakes.

 

I don't think we are playing as well as KC or Cincinnati right now. Those teams look to be a notch above us. Regardless of records. 

 

Does it mean we can't win it all? Of course not. But there are serious concerns with this team.

Game times should start leaking out during the Lions/Packers game tonight and fully announced by the end of their game tonight by 11:15 or so.

Yea… honestly they outplayed us a few weeks ago. We stole a victory in a game we probably should’ve lost.

Agreed, but in fairness we were obviously the better team in the game we lost.  So there's that.

Probably at halftime during the SNF game tonight. That’s when they usually announce them.

No Tua. Their 3rd string QB played.

 

Not to sound like a jerk, but shouldn’t that be obvious?

[buffalobillswin]

I’m predicting the Sunday 1 pm game. Jaguars will get the Saturday 4:30 and Dallas is a lock for the Sunday 4:25 slot 

[Barnaby Wilde]

That secondary has to be way better or Hill will torch them like Blueberry Hill.

[jkeerie]

This defense should have Benford back.  Elam got picked on like nobody's business today.  I expect the secondary to be better.  It's the playoffs.  Lose and you're out.  I think the Bills D will be ready.

Tua shouldn’t play.  He should take this off-season to get himself right, work on protection technique and look into different helmets.  
 

That said .. I’d be surprised if he doesn’t play given we are now in the playoffs. 

He has 3 concussions this season.  There’s that number 3 again…

If we don't have talented DB's, that will be exploited against KC or Cin. 

 

I think we will beat Miami. Somehow someway. 

 

But all of the pressure is on the Bills in this game. Miami is playing with house money.

It was an even worse iteration of the secondary in our first matchup against them 

[Kenosha2Buffalo]

You guys really freaking out about Miami? Lol the Patriots have a much better defense and looked what happened today. we will put up points and even if Tua does play noodle arm isn't going to outduel josh when it matters most. Bills by a million

People are acting like we are the 13-3 Bears under Dick Jauron. It's really bizarre. Almost like people are living in another universe or something.

Is kinda all about offense.  Defense you either get a sack or the offense messes up.  Defense is an afterthought in the nfl these days

How about because we are a significantly better team than they are?

We'll either be Sunday night or Monday night.  Bills are still the talk of the NFL and it's a divisional matchup.

EVERY #2 CB is going to get picked on a lot. Means NOTHING. Elam gave up on one play and on another play, it was a really good throw and catch.

 

I AM NOT beating up Elam this game. Kids a rookie. going to take time.

The bills are on a roll and it looks like tre is back as well Josh Allen is back too we got this I love this match up
