I feel bad for the Player.

 

Not the fans.

Well, for fans like that. There were quite a few Bills of fans making fun of Tua's brain injury last year, even posting jokes about the one against the Bengals where he was twitching. There are fans like that in every fanbase, even ours.

 

I do like to believe it's a very small vocal minority of fans. But the more social media you take in the more negative asshats you'll encounter. 

 

Comments like the one above tell more about the individual person than it does an entire group of fans.

I think Fournette would replace Johnson. I think Johnson has played well, but Fournette really looked sharp to me in the few carries he got a couple of weeks ago. If he’s in his old form then he needs to play. I think people are forgetting how good he was/is.

 

I think Murray plays because of his pass blocking and, to a lesser degree, the QB shove.

i thought johnson outplayed cook yesterday.    when they finally brought him in, in the 3rd qtr?   he was avg better than cook.  then cook came back and 

looked like he did earlier.  Not sure why they didnt sprinkle in johnson sooner or why they went back to cook when Johnson was playing better

I mostly remember fans making fun of and being angry at the Dolphins organization for putting Tua in that position more than anything.

 

Josh would then have a perfect game in the first round of the playoffs, and that's not an exaggeration.

Didn't feel like the line was doing as good a job getting space for Cook which he needs to be in peak form, Ty can do better with a bit of a mess since he'll run through people.

Falcons game was incredibly bad weather. Snowy but like windy sleet.

Falcons almost won too. Matt Ryan ran it in for a td, only to get called back on taunting

How many drops did he have against the Falcons? Falcons have a defense like the Patriots? What other variables are we looking or not looking at?

Chubb ACL Tear confirmed 

 

massive blow for 2024 season too. 

 

Ingram gave Dawkins fits his last matchup...caused a sack/fumble of Allen I believe in Miami last year

I hate this game for many reasons - 

I'm so tired of the constant pissing contest between bills and dolphins fans on Twitter 

 

I hate that our fate rests on beating the Dolphins (I don't care how many times we've beat them recently) 

 

I hate that our offense all of a sudden looks like they re hired Dorsey 

 

If we lose, it'll be very fitting for how this season has gone. 

 

We don't deserve to be in the playoffs if we can't beat the Dolphins 

 

Even if we do beat the Dolphins, my confidence in this offense lately is low. They've looked awful and don't know how far they'll get in the playoffs 

 

Sunday is my birthday and the bills could potentially ruin it 

It never really looked different. It’s the same offense with slightly different wrinkles.

They play so much 2 TE with big personnel and run the ball that he is getting phased out of the offense. Not good.

It effects Diggs around the goal line but not much else. The big packages are taking snaps away more so from Kincaid, Knox and Shakir

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.

So...like our game vs the Phins

Yeah but if either Pittsburgh or Jax lose before our game i thought the Bills back in. Then the Miami game would be for the AFC East title. 

Get your best 5 skill players on the field over 80% of the time: 011 personnel.

 

Sorry Knox, Murray, Sherfield - you’re getting 5 breather snaps for the starters.

 

Sorry Diggs you can’t check yourself out.

 

Trent Sherfield is a career journeyman on a vet minimum 1-year deal. He’s not a sacred cow that can’t come out.

 

Latavius Murray is 837 years old, you don’t have a moral obligation to play him.

 

Cut Sherfield and put Shorter in.

 

Cut Murray and bring Fournette up full-time.

Yeah, that's what I thought.  I had the Ravens-Dolphins game taped and watched it after the Bills game was over.  Miami was matching Baltimore's offense until Tyreek Hill bobbled a sure TD pass, and the Fins had to settle for a FG.  After that the Ravens kept scoring and the Dolphins sort of wilted.    It was really over in the 3rd quarter.  It was just plain stupid for the Fins to keep Tua and Chubb in the game in the 4th.

He rag-dolled Spencer Brown in the 13-second game.

Possible.  Diggs has mostly been 80-90% all year until the KC game.  KC he was 79%.  Since then he has been 45, 60, and now 65%.  I don't think its a scheme thing. There must be something nagging him from the KC or Dallas game.

Is it possible he lost his nerve? He got smashed in the Philly game (after the whistle) and body slammed in a game before that, forgot which game. He might be shying away from contact, or maybe he's looking over his shoulder. I had the impression that the "overthrown" ball by Allen wasn't overthrown at all but that Diggs let up or wasn't running at top speed. Something about the way Allen reacted.

Not sure but I know there is no way scheme is the reason for diggs to only have 40-60% snap count.  You don't purposely take your best guy off the field that much.  I also don't think it has anything to do with "wanting out of Buffalo" or whatever crap like that.  That leads me to believe he has an injury of some sort.

One of the quiet events of this season has been the ascent of Brown.  He was just terrible the last couple of years, but this year you almost never hear his name called in a game, a good sign for an O lineman.  When they do mention him it's for a good block pulling around to the left, an impressive play for a huge man like that.  Part of this no doubt is due to playing next to a competent guard for a change, but he does well with one on one pass blocking too.  Also there's Kromer's teaching to recognize. The O line as a whole is hugely better than last year.  In the Chargers game, I heard Khalil Mack's name once, when the teams were introduced.  After that he vanished.  The Pats D line didn't do much rushing Josh but their overall D was able to plug all the running gaps, which is why Cook didn't do well.  Unlike Murray or Johnson, Cook can't make his own holes -- but unlike Murray or Johnson, if Cook can get through the line he's into the secondary in a flash so that's why he was still playing. If Josh had been playing close to his capability, the Pats' D would have had to back off from the line and that would have opened holes for Cook.

I feel like the O will score enough in this game, but not some amazing output.  Try to ball control Miami to death.  Have a nice time of possession advantage and stress ball security of course. 

 

Overall though i think this will be a game the D and McDermott will be responsible for winning.  Keep Tyreek in check, control their running game...limit the huge chunk plays, and make Tua uncomfortable.

Fans from all teams were laughing at Tua over the “ frozen hands “ incident if that’s what you are referring too.., Not trying to say that was the right thing either but incidents were a bit different..it was a pretty unusual thing to see… also there was a lot of controversy that the Dolphins were trying to hush up a previous concussion 

 

I thought the carry on from more than a few Dolphins fans over Milano was pretty classless ..

Oh come on, the Dolphins asked for that. Everybody on earth watching Tua stagger around like dad on Friday night after getting nudged down by Milano knew he was concussed, except for the Dolphins' desperate coaching staff watching that offense rot in the sun like a belly-up carp. They came up with that laughable "back injury" cover and basically gave the NFLPA the finger, and threw Tua back out there to get planked. They knew damn well what they were doing and I'm not cutting them any slack for it.

Ingram destroyed Dawkins when he played for Pitt in the 2021 season opener too. But maybe he’s lost a step.
