Matt_In_NH Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 This is just wrong. In week 3 the Dolphins scored TD's on their first 2 possessions and then 6 more points the rest of the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Romes Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I get the point about Fournette>Murray, but Murray seems to necessary to the Jush push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the focused Bills come out we win. If the unfocused team shows up forget it. I don't agree. The D actually has done a good job adjusting over the last month. Miami scoring the first drive doesn't mean a thing. While it would be concerning if the offense doesn't come out smoking at the gate, it also doesn't mean anything. The offense has had slow starts before and picked it up. Similarly, both have had fast starts and then broke later in the game. I do agree if the unfocused team shows up forget it though.

BBFL Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Miami looked to have no problems on their opening 2 drives then completely fizzled out. I’m sure our defense is almost as capable as Baltimore’s. Regardless what happens in the first series, I hope they make changes from being in a hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyBillsFan Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 1 hour ago, Johnnyp566 said: If that passing game shows up from yesterday Miami will beat the living hell out of this team. That was absolute garbage. And if the Miami pass defense from yesterday shows up, where Raven receivers were high school wide open, the Bills will beat the hell out of the Dolphins. It's a week to week league and what happened last week seldom impacts what happens the following week except fr injuries and the Finns seem to have had more then the Bills did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Haven't found anything about this. Assuming the Bills win next week does Miami fall to #5 or #6 behind Cleveland if Cleveland also lost? Records would be the same and they didn't play each other. Cleveland has a better conference record, but not certain that is next tie breaker for wild card seeding. If so then 2nd weekend likely could have either KC or Miami in Buffalo assuming Bills win 1st weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Miami would be the 6 if they lose and would go to KC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warcodered Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) 1 hour ago, zow2 said: 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) They're sports analysts so they have to come up with an angle the Bills need to go with, the reality is the Bills just have to find a way it doesn't matter which one just find one. Same as every week find the way to do it don't care how we do it if it's pretty or ugly it just needs to be done, grab this team we're playing drag them down and smother the life out of them. 1 hour ago, KCNC said: Have Dolphins already clinched a playoff spot?

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 If anyone wants to complain about how the Bills look nowhere near top form I recommend you look at the Dolphins last four games 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commish Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 You didn't watch the Ravens game yesterday. The Phins came out smoking, looked unstoppable the first two possessions, like the Ravens weren't trying. Then the Ravens shut them down and turned on the offense. Partly a feature of McDaniel's scripted offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partly a feature of McDaniel's scripted offense. That would be similar to our first Fish game. But to me the Bills are not the same team. The lethargy especially on offense starting the last two games is a concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) Have the Dolphins ever won a key matchup against the Bills since the Kelly era when both teams were good? Like in the playoffs or situation like this late in the year to decide the AFC East or a win and in scenario for one of the teams? I can't recall them ever having done so.

Gman10 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Dolphins are 6-1? At home...but they have only beaten one team with a winning record all year (Cowboys) It should be a tough game, but Im reading a lot of Dolphins are banged up from the Ravens game?
