par73 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) Amazing to think this will be for the #2 Seed, with a Bills loss meaning they are out of the playoffs (I'm assuming the early games don't go the Bills' way). They better get the offense fixed, pronto. Edited January 1 by par73 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Dude Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 7 hours ago, BuffaloBillyG said: Many saw this coming at schedule release. This game is for it all with #2 seed on the line as well. Miami coming in with some serious injuries as well. In addition to Mostert and Waddle to monitor...Chubb left the game late as well on a cart. We can win this. Edit: Both fans and more importantly the Bills should stop counting Dolphin injuries, if we come out like we started our past two games against trash teams it won't matter. Bills offence needs to start this game with pace, they cannot worry about running the ball. Chubb is gone for the season and they already lost lost their best pass rusher earlier this season. Pass the ball and get Allen going early, don't wait until you fall behind 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they lose the winner is the winner of the game the day before. So the winner of the Saturday colts Texans game will be either the 7 seed (likely) or 4 seed (if jags lose) Edited January 1 by YattaOkasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pass the ball and get Allen going early, don't wait until you fall behind Miamis entire strength is built around pass rushing specialists and they lost most of their good ones…that NE defense we saw today is significantly better than Miami’s defense if Howard doesn’t play. I don’t even think it’s close the pats play really good team defense while the dolphins depend on winning individual matchups so they’re a lot less plug and play than the pats 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Happy that the Steelers and Jags games (the two deciding wild card potential) are viewable before our game in different time slots. Gives me something to look forward to Saturday and Sunday afternoon without feeling like I have to have it. Sunday night will be either no pressure, just play loose and get the dub we’re in either way, or full send gotta get this done sugar rush.

dma0034 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I think this is it for the Dolphins window. If they don't win this game they won't win the Superbowl with Tua and McDaniels. Their salary cap is worse than the Bills and they still have to pay Tua and Waddle. They went all in on this season and failing to win the division would be devastating for them. So Bills gonna beat them by 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it was for the bills early in the season,it’s the players that are injured on the defensive side for them, not the total amount of injuries.

Does the playing at night in Prime time in your opinion an advantage or disadvantage to the Bills. I mean I know they need to prepare the same regardless. I guess Im curious as to if you think it adds good or bad pressure to the team playing in Prime time in such a crucial game as this at least it won't be 100 degrees and 100% humidity @-@ It sucks for Miami. They are horrible on SNF and primetime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Bills we will know just how big before kickoff. For us it may or may not be do or die, while for the Dolphins they are in either way. Regardless of that aspect, for either the difference between a lower seed and the #2 seed is big and both will be playing with desire to win. 1 minute ago, stuvian said: so the most the Dolphins can hope for is the division title and a sole home game on wild card weekend, correct?

If the Dolphins win they get the 2 seed, which means a home game on wild card weekend and if they win that, a home game on divisional weekend but if I'm coach Pinky and the Brain, I care more about going into the playoffs with my starters healthy than I do about a home game on wildcard weekend. If I can get Mostert, Chubb and Tua back on two weeks rest, I care more about that than getting a home game on wildcard weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
