A lot of people are thinking Elam is going to be part of the factor Sunday. I don't see how or why. Well, he brings a physical presence and speed. You have to believe the Bills may want to jam receivers at times in an attempt to give the defensive line an extra half second to get in Tua’s face and get their arms up. Seems to me that this particular matchup is where Elam’s skills could be a factor. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlbills13 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 3 is a good line. I think the sharps will let the public get it down to -1 or -2 and then hammer the Bills back up to -3 or even-3.5 by kickoff. The Dolphins are legit. And their speed worries me. But keep them in front of you and get it done defensively in the red zone. Their defense has some big names but they don't scare me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I meant in intermediate/deep passes to the outside which was my initial point. But please, intentionally misinterpret my comment.

He should be our best bet for Miamis speed but I feel like he gonna be scratched anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tua leads the league in two categories. shortest time of release Furthest depth of target. it’s almost unfathomable to lead both of those. they put hill and waddle in motion and have them running nearly top speed at the snap which the bills will have to deal with it because it’s impossible to stop when you are flat footed because they will both run by you.

HopelessNJBuffaloFan Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I can easily see this game going either way both as a close game and a serious blowout by either team. The Fish are legit offense wise, and they are going to get their points. Our Defense is also legit. Our offense can put up some serious points if Josh's head is in the game and the Fins defense is not as near close as Washingtons and the Jets. Hope they show it here in NJ!!

Jerome007 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Last year, even if the Fish won in the "heat game" in Miami while enjoying their sideline shade, Bills dominated and the loss felt more like a fluke. And the Bills won the rematch. Sure, this time the Fins are for real, but let's not pretend the Bills - and Josh! - haven't had their number so far! No matter how you slice it, 70 points and over 700 yards of offense is impressive. But different week, different results. Did people on here forget the Bills just did two blowouts in a row of their own? GO BILLS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is, if we can see that, then the coaching staff has been aware for some time. We'll see in a week what that came up with to deal with it.

The original question was "when has a McDermott defense been blown out?" (rare) not "when have the Bills been solidly defeated in a game they were never in, even if the score wasn't a blow out ?"

The good news is they can not put both Hill and Waddle in motion and have them both running nearly top speed at the snap because that would be illegal. Either or, not Both.

A lot of people are thinking Elam is going to be part of the factor Sunday. I don't see how or why. I think he dresses on Sunday. I have thought all season he would be active or inactive based on matchups. A game like this is when you want his particular skill set available. He is fast and physical and we can use that to disrupt some of Miami's timing passing game. Elam made a huge play in the playoff game last year against Miami, 24-20 Miami and they are driving and Elam makes a huge interception and then we go on to score two straight touchdowns. Game changing play. I could certainly be wrong, I am not McD. But just what I felt all season would be matchup play for the DBs. We will see.

SCBills Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) I'd like to see Elam active if for no other reason than we've seen him play well against their receivers.. and maybe Benford locks it down, but if we get in-game and see he's struggling with Hill/Waddle's speed, I'd like to have the option of giving Elam a shot.

Charles Romes Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Anyone know if this officiating crew will let the DBs play? If they will, I want to see a lot of press coverage from Elam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
