WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 18 minutes ago, Beck Water said: 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. I think that if Ken Dorsey had Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle the last two years he wouldn't have been fired and if McDaniel had Diggs and Gabe Davis the Dolphins would be limping to get a playoff spot. It's like how Bill Belicheck got called a genius...and he was. I don't think Tom Brady wins as many Super Bowls together without that pairing. And it's not that Belicheck was bad the first few years without Brady, but ho boy was it evident that things weren't right. I think McDaniel lucked into a not terrible offense mismanaged by Brian Flores (do you remember the Ryan Fitzpatrick/Tua rotation?), and then got an MVP candidate WR. I'd argue Kyle Shanahan is a genius equaling and exceeding McDaniel's success with Jimmy Garoppolo and Trey Lance and now Mr. Irrelevent Brock Purdy rather than the guy who once raised the cry "tank for Tua!" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Random question, but if we end up the 7 seed to the Dolphins 2 seed, would the team even fly back to Buffalo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohninMinn. Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Due to the magnitude of this game I will be attending the Minneapolis Philharmonic concert instead of watching. The game will be recorded and if the Bills win I will watch it. Good Luck fanatics. We deserve a Super Bowl. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) The last time we played the Dolphins with so much on the line to end the regular season, my kids were in attendance.

MikePJ76 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Mitch Morse has an illness and is not practicing today, sounds like he might be home. That is not good. He only has two days to recover from whatever it is. Hopefully it is the flu or the big C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missing practice is fine, keep from spreading to a degree, rest up as much as possible so you are good for the game.

Fish are banged up, missing several starters. We still win easily regardless of team’s limitations. I won’t respond to the rest of your childish nonsense. Even tho Miami is 7-1?

There's a lost of nasty stuff going around right now, the filthy beast household has been struggling the last few weeks and you've already seen a lot of players around the league miss time. In fact I was almost wondering if JA17 was sick last week against the Patriots because he did not look good when they showed him on the sidelines at times but I guess it's normal for him when he struggles. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I expect a heavy dose of Smyth to the flat, Achane sweeping to the left, and Berrios outside the numbers to the right. They may try and get Claypool on fly routes with single coverage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Firebaugh Kid Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 2 hours ago, Beck Water said: 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. I expect a dog fight. No disrespect, but how do you have time to even remember who posts what? Honest question. I can't remember to wear underwear. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sestak4ever Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 We will need some heroes in this game, not just Josh. Just like Rasul Douglas last week. No dropped passes, no stupid penalties, everyone on top of their game. It will be an indication of coaching preparation for big games, which we have seen at times, but not as consistently as we might like. Might try to punish them with the ground game between Cook and Johnson. I really like how hard Ty Johnson runs. Keep the fish offense off the field. When the fins do have the ball make them pay. You know with their depleted roster McDaniel will try to pull something unexpected. Be ready. Go Bills!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and McGovern have overall been excellent additions to the point where Bates has pretty much just been an insurance policy.

Dont know if we need heroes...just need guys to execute. Heroes makes it sound like we need guys to play out of their mind in order for us to win...we don't. We are a better team. Just go out and execute. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
