Then the Miami game would be for the AFC East title. Bills clinch playoffs even before Miami game if one of those things happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Kevi Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 9 hours ago, Success said: Miami fans online are cracking me up - they think the move to primetime is the end of the season for them. Have they been that bad in primetime games? I feel like we haven't been great either. I think it's just overlap of good teams/primetime for them. They can't beat good teams, which is generally what you get in primetime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Dude Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 10 hours ago, Big Blitz said: The gameplane should be easy, the Bills need to pass the ball in this game, the Dolphins are banged up in the secondary and missing both Phillips and now Chubb their 2 best pass rushers. I would bring up Isabella from the practice squad and just turn this into a track meet. The Bills should want to force the Dolphins to pass with Tua banged up and their #2 WR down along with many injuries to their line. If Brady calls a ground and pound game and we come out flat on offence like we have the past two games then we will lose. They need the Philly gameplan and not the Cowboys gameplan. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 On ESPN, Rex says he trusts Josh Allen vs Miami, but he has no trust with the rest of the team especially the offense. He doesn’t know who else will show up and play big for the Bills. Orlovsky says Kincaid and Diggs need to have big games (combine for 170+ yards) 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 28 minutes ago, Scott7975 said: I wanted to put this in a different thread but I'm blind and couldn't find it. Bills snap counts against NE. Shakir at 80%. He hit that a couple times this year but last few games was a 50-60% guy. For those that want it you can find seasonal and individual snap counts here: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/buf/2023-snap-counts.htm Not updated for this week yet though. Thank you for posting this. A few observations and opinions: 1. Shakir has earned more snaps. However seeing him in 15% more than Diggs and being Diggs didn't even see a snap on the Bills first possession of the 2nd half (the TD drive) this all screams to me that Diggs has some kind of injury he's fighting through. Does anyone remember which game he got picked up and basically suplexed onto the back of his head/neck? 2. If Murray is getting 19 snaps and on one of those he dropped a key pass and on another he couldn't plunge forward for a yard...I see no reason he's active on GameDay. They were even using Cook down near the goal line yesterday. Murray has played well in spots, but this late in the season it seems he's just out of gas. It's Fournette time. 3. Speaking of wasting 19 snaps, Sherfield being out there is pointless as well. I'd like to see those split between Shakir and Kincaid. 4. DaQuan Jones getting 28 snaps is promising. Settle getting 20; I feel like he made the most of his reps. Seemed on live watch to have a few flashes this week. Much more noticeable than Poona Ford in the same amount of snaps IMO. 5. No wasted snaps on Von Miller this week. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s got to be 4/14/86/10 down the stretch here. Those are the guys you can rely on and the guys that can take a ball up the field. Shakir has flashed to me since day 1….his usage is infuriating but he has made 2 season saving plays in the last couple of weeks. You have to identify this guy as a big part of the offense and start using him more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWATeam Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 1 minute ago, Scott7975 said: The only game that matters is Pittsburg. Pitts is the only team that can knock us out. Jags game just changes our seed between 6th and 7th. No other team can get to 10 wins besides Houston or Colts and they play each other. Jags too but it doesnt matter as only 2 of Jags/Colts/Hou will make it. It only flip flops the division winner. TLDR only the Pittsburg game matters to us as far as WC. This is wrong. We clinch with TEN win 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldmanfan Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 If it’s defense we either make a statement and shut them down or we let them walk down the field. if it’s offense we either make a statement and come out focused with a long drive or go 3 and out.

JakeFrommStateFarm Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 12 hours ago, zow2 said: Let’s also keep in mind that Allen mentioned in the post game presser how the ball came out of his hand poorly today. He could not get the spin like he normally does. He struggled. Down in Miami Gardens next weekend it will be mid-high 70’s. Perfect throwing of the pigskin conditions. Josh will throw it well. Much better than he did today. It’s a lock. And the Oline will be super motivated. Did Josh say why ? Is he injured? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also we need for McDermott to let go of the loyalty stuff and play the guys who gives us a better chance at winning. He did it sitting Von, now try it sitting Murray. Let Fournette play!! Better receiver and fresher legs than Murray at this point in time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Hooks Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 No it won’t. We always let teams storm down the field on us for big games on the first drive. Then we button up and show them what’s what.

Usually we feel out teams , give / concede them a few early drives then lock down. The Phins are gloriously beat up and gimpy though. I think that will greatly effect them. I'm not scared of them. As usual, I'm scared of our own mistakes. Edited January 1 by RichRiderBills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
