Double down of the McFraiser style we’ve come to love and loathe? More zone, less pressures? More pressures, tighter press? More mixed coverages? Muddy up the looks for the QB. Stop the run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddle, Hill, Mostert and Giseki with a tough D. Big game Thanks, but I’ve already spent thousands in therapy trying NOT to remember Jeff Hostettler! And that damn hand that held the ball when……. Every game scares me, and they have multiple guys who can score in a hurry. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I think its going to remain fairly similar, at least to start the game. He is going to be worried about Hill/Waddle killing them, so I expect a lot of 2 deep safeties with nickel. IF Miami runs the ball well, then I think he will start creeping a safety down in the box and maybe will get Klein in the game on early downs. But I think his philiosphy doesn't change alot unfortunately as I think he is still going to be terrified of Hill/waddle beating them with explosive plays Edited January 12, 2023 by BillsFan130 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch the offensive highlights of last year's playoffs. Nothing will get you more hyped than that. A total of 12 tds on only 16 drives and averaged 41.5 ppg. Legend has it that, statistically, it was the best QB play ever in a playoff year, and he became the 1st QB ever to throw at least 4 tds(5/4) in consecutive playoff games. Even in defeat he threw 4 tds, including 2 in the final 1:54. Crazy we lost in only the divisional round. There's no way we should've lost, not with Josh and the offense playing like that. I don't know how you would figure it out, but I would love to know the probability of a team losing in the 2nd round of the playoffs with the offense scoring tds on 12 of 16 drives.

DapperCam Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 If the Dolphins are smart they will commit and stick to the run game. They were gashing us last matchup. Might not work as well because Tua is out, but it’s the only way they can keep it close IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sestak4ever Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I don't trust the Dolphin players or their coach. We need to build a quick lead and make it tough for them to even think they can get back into the game. They have played us dirty before and now their backs are up against a wall. Not sure what they might have up their sleeve, but I just don't trust them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won’t work nearly as well…dolphins pass out of heavy formations and the defense plays them with a relatively light box because they have to respect the speed of tyreek/waddle. It becomes less effective in the red zone even in ideal circumstances because the line of scrimmage naturally gets more clogged up when tyreek can’t take the top off the defense. that’s why we saw McDaniel attempt some throws on 3rd and short/medium down around the goal line. The threat of the passing game gives them a big time schematic advantage between the 20s and they’re still not a great rushing team. We had an awful night tackling or it would’ve gone significantly better for us. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can be a game wrecker pure and simple. He's too fast for any of our dbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDTT Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 2 hours ago, gobills404 said: I think this is confusing correlation and causation. Of course you would expect teams with more rushing yards to win, because teams with a lead are more likely to be running the ball to kill the clock. At the same time, teams that are behind will be more likely to throw the ball and give up in the run. RG3 needs a new stats guy. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostert has been running like his hair is on fire and with Skylar starting, that offense will rely heavily on the run game. He has the broken thumb, though. This is shaping up to be a REALLY bad game for the Dolphins. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
