Warriorspikes51 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Allen Diggs and Brady need to spend all of their free time this week together finding ways to get #14 the ball. Motion away from Ramsey is a way to start. I also think that Eli Apple being on the field will REALLY fire Allen and Diggs up That guy is an absolute punk. Going out on a limb: Diggs: 12 for 177 and 2 TDs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesnt mean i expect a blow out like last game cause i think were a bit worse off with Milano out, DQ getting back to speed, Rasoul for Tre is probably a wash if not an advantage. Also our offense doesnt have a lot of momentum right now like it did last game coming off the stomping of Commanders and Raiders. I sorta would let week 4 make me feel good we can beat them but everything else from that game should probably be forgotten its so long ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they give it away like they did at the Chargers, it's a 99% loss. Otherwise, I agree the Bills are healthier especially on D and playing well. Allen/Diggs do concern me though, but they will power through. Correction its only a loss 98% of the time when you turn if over like we did against chargers. God im so glad we pulled that game off.

Tre has always been a playmaker at a rate as good or better than Rasul (his time as a Bill is not enough sample size to make such definitive statements). Tre has 20 less games in his career and only 1 less pick (18 for Tre) and 6 less PDs (74 for Rasul). Tre has also had 5 FF to Douglas's 2 (I consider FF to be making the play and FR a bit of luck, though again 5 for Tre and 3 for Rasul). Rasul has played out of his mind (clear defensive player of the week to me) as a Bill but lets not throw shade on Tre cause of that.

BearNorth Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I'm just worried that Diggs has met Father time. 1st 6 games this year 49 catches, 66 targets, 74.2% catch rate 12.65 yards per catch Last 10 games this year 51 catches, 81 targets, 59.3% catch rate 9.33 yards per catch Last 10 games are the longest stretch of his Bills career without a 100 yard game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was on the injury report for his back right before this started. Also, Joe Brady has increased emphasis on Cook. Diggs was open for a likely 90 yard TD and Allen missed him. It seems to be a combination of things. I hope 17, 14 and Joe Brady spend a lot of time together this week. 7 minutes ago, Warcodered said: Given how timing based Tua's game is he could be a nightmare for Tua.

Rasul has been great for us but half of those ints were this week and the other half against the Jets 5 weeks ago. He isn't a "clear upgrade." They basically been the same player though.

TheFunPolice Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 The silver lining with having to play Bernard and trade for Douglas is that next year we'll have Bernard, Milano, White and Douglas, plus Benford One thing is for sure... We're going to need points on offense. Even if you hold Miami down they're one moonball to Hill from 7 points on any play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRiderBills Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Some folks have discussed limiting Scherfield and Harty snaps, but I would potentially look to pull Murray for Fournette this week. I think Murray is pretty much done. Murray started strong but really fizzled out. His 300 yards and 4 TDs w 3.8 YPC is a bit short of what I had hoped for. He was a huge goat last week w a terrible drop and lackluster short yardage snaps. I'd look for someone new and fresh here. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockinon Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I think the defense is going to go off against Miami and the pass rush is going to make life miserable for Tua.

Douglas turns 30 at the start of the 2024 season, so I don't know if it's wise to extend him beyond that? It doesn't look as if they're giving up on Elam either. For the 2024 roster at CB, they currently have White, Douglas, Elam, Benford, and Taron J. They'll probably ink Ingrahm and Brown from the current PS as well. I don't know if there will be much of a market for Dane Jackson and Cam Lewis, so both could also be back. White is certainly the big question mark for them, but if Elam finally gets it together, they will be in decent shape at the position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think so... No matter how much the Dolphins players and coaches want to spin this they know they're in the playoffs and have a game the weekend of Jan. 13th. That's a different mindset than what could be life or death for Buffalo. And I trust McDermott, Allen and the defensive leaders in a game like this if it's do or die...and not for the opponent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
