IronyAbounds Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Anyone else remember a team that was either going to be a 2 seed or not make the playoffs at all? I hoping it doesn't come down to that, but with the Ravens having little to play for other than staying healthy and the Titans sucking, it seems likely.

NewEra Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Very valid points. all I care is that we make the playoffs. I would prefer the 2 seed and a 4th straight division crown but ultimately, we just need to be in the playoffs. missing the playoffs after this roller coaster could really blow this team up.

Again, I want to make the playoffs and I want to win the Super Bowl. *puts on Louis CK hat* …BUT After so much upheaval and different things occurring this season…to win the 2 seed and make it at least to the AFC Championship game is not only important in the present, but for this team’s future given some of what NE said above.

Winning @KC, @BAL, and then @Miami in the AFC Championship game would be my preferred path. Allen and the Bills beats the three Pro Bowlers picked in front of him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen, or Bosa so things have a way of evening out. I also question whether the Ravens would rather face us or the Steelers. Division games are usually closer and one of the Ravens losses were to the Steelers this year when they weren't resting starters where they put up only 10 points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After an emotional win in Miami, coming back home and facing a up-and-coming Texans team? Ripe for an upset. (Yes, they could face the Steelers or Jaguars - neither of which are that scary on paper but they're good defensive teams who've played well lately and the "ripe for an upset" statement still applies) Even if they can get past the Wild Card round, they host what will likely be the Chiefs in the Divisional Round (I can't see the Dolphins beating Chiefs in KC). Beating Mahomes/Reid twice in one season? That is a tough ask, even at home. Then if they get to the AFC Championship, they more than likely have to face the Ravens in Baltimore (unless the Ravens are upset). The rust will have been shaken off by then and the Ravens will be fired up and riding high. I don't see this Bills team capable of winning that one.

Make Ramsey cover Diggs all game. Put Diggs into motion into the slot on the same side as Gabe and leave Shakir/Kincaid on the other side. Make Diggs get covered by a LB or leave Shakir/Kincaid against a DB corps that has Eli Apple as the #2. 9 hours ago, Drew21PA said: Look ugh this is frustrating all the scardie cats about the game against the chargers cmon people think!!!! traveling out west - you just need to win! what am I missing?

Traditionally we view national media and larger media bodies as being too uninformed to possess a fully formed belief in the team. Similarly, we dismiss their viewpoints when negative because we only choose to see the good. These narratives set by the media resonate across the league to form popular beliefs. Those popular beliefs are often something we toe when viewing other teams. So, all things being equal we should remain focused on the greater populist narrative when gauging our team. Pulling back in to his statement we will have two outcomes possible. In the first we will all expect to win because there are few reasons we should lose. The resulting storylines after victory can easily write themselves. However, if we lose will the same narratives from earlier this season bounce right back? Were they wrong to begin with? This team needs sweeping changes across the roster and across the way the team is managed & coached, regardless of the win. I will leave those changes open to anyone willing to challenge themselves and others to the outcomes. So, if we win than it is what we expect. If we lose than we get exposed prematurely to what most of us already know in the back of our heads: we are a pretty flawed team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Water Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 19 hours ago, WhitewalkerInPhilly said: I know I was joking a bit ago, but I am really annoyed by the Dolphins this year...or rather, I am annoyed at the amount of praise laid at their feet. I think that while they are good, a lot of McDaniel's genius can be attributed to having an All Pro WR in Hill and a #2 in waddle that could be a starter on a lot of other teams. Thought question: if Hill and Waddle were on the Bills and Ken Dorsey were the coordinator....or Rico Dennison...would they be as effective? McDermott said before our earlier meeting that what they're doing on offense is almost revolutionary. I don't think he said that lightly. Yes, a lot of Miami's success is having top talent at WR and RB, but don't overlook the fact that they're using that talent effectively. We always talk about McDaniel, but Frank Smith made his way onto a list of top OC from the NFLPA. So maybe Frank Smith is the genius. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigvinny Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 4 of 5 people on NFL.com pick the Bills "Why Gennaro is taking the Bills: Every NFL campaign is a war of attrition. And as we head into the 272nd and final game of the 2023 regular season -- a de facto AFC East title bout -- one team is losing the battle. While Buffalo encountered a vicious injury bug in October -- losing critical pieces on all three levels of the defense -- the Bills weathered the storm and now seem like they've come out on the other side. Yeah, star QB Josh Allen's a little banged up, but by and large, this feels like the healthiest Buffalo has been since September. The same cannot be said about Miami. The team's two star edge rushers -- Bradley Chubb and Jaelan Phillips -- are on injured reserve. The offensive line has been a MASH unit all season. And Wednesday's injury report was a depressingly star-studded list. Long story short, the Dolphins are limping into the playoffs, while the Bills are surging down the stretch with a four-game win streak in tow." 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh will have his best game of the season. Is this like some weird-ass attempt at "the power of positive thinking"? Or are you just bipolar? In other posts, you've been going on about how you don't buy that Josh is injured (despite appearing on the injury report every week from Week 7 to 16 and various expert injury analysts like Trimble assessing it weeks ago) because "every year is the same injury, it's just an excuse" and he's really just inconsistant: "He’s not the best decision maker. It’s capping his potential. He’s not hurt. He’s just not cerebral". Then we have your take that "our offense is basic and vanilla" "He’s not consistent nor innovative" "Find an upgrade during off-season." So now we're going into Miami to play the league's #1 offense on points and yards, #2 for NY/A and #1 for rush Y/A, an offense McDermott described as "almost revolutionary". Miami also has the #5 defense against the rush and their passing defense isn't a weakness - they get passed on a lot because they've had the lead in a lot of games. Since according to you Josh isn't really injured (just an excuse), not cerebral, inconsistent; our offense is basic and vanilla and our OC not innovative, it's totally puzzling why you think this is a cake-walk now. I'm not dissing the Bills, but even with some guys dinged up, the Dolphins are a divisional opponent, they know us very well, they're a well-coached, well-prepared team (though I hate to say it), and they still have a ton of talent with Tua, Hill, and Achane.

Lamar Jackson had all day to pass in their game last Sunday, not surprised to see the Dolphins drop 7-8 guys and force Allen to be patient. I agree. Moreover, the Dolphins strength is their DT. Best way to destroy a pocket is up the middle. I see Bills rolling Josh out, and also running QB draws to combat the interior rush. If Dolphins are still using a wide 9, then Bills may need to use a TE to help break contain on rollouts. So I think Knox blocking ability comes into play this game.

Playoffs are a different burd that chiefs team in no way shape or form comes to buffalo and beats us - never. I’d bet on it being a massive smack in the face to them - buffalo would win handily and they would be so frustrated with the crowd noise by halftime only one I’m not sure of is the afccg I do believe Cleveland would go into Baltimore and beat them. That’s how I see this playing out with the two seed - and ultimately a win this week now they lose ? I truly believe we are done and we will play again next September - we will miss and be the talk of how we either could win and get in and don’t we lose?
