SageAgainstTheMachine Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Benford - INT, handled Hill well Rapp - Game sealing INT Hyde - Punch out on Hill to force incompletion and punt Poyer - Lays the lumber to set up a 3rd down Jackson - Huge tackle on Berrios to force punt, good coverage in spot duty T. Johnson - Big TFL, great in run support The Harty TD was the turning point and Josh won the game in the 4th quarter but man it was this veteran secondary that gave Tua fits when our pressure wasn't even getting home. Miami ran 17 plays in the second half total and got two first downs. Two! 6 6 11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maine-iac Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 If Dane was 6'1" 200 pounds he'd be a starter. He's a good player to having coming in when you need someone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, McD would have to record two consecutive losing seasons before the Bills would even consider firing him.....Pegula likes him, and he's turned this dead-end franchise into a perennial playoff participant....I think he's earned a longer leash with management than he has with the fans. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on how he does in the Playoffs. If they have an early exit, there will be mumblings in One Bills Drive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting hunt back seemed to really stabilize their oline and they had armstead playing which is kind of lucky for them at this point 😂. The defensive injuries seemed to hurt them a lot more than the offense I think. their offense is just getting figured out by the better DCs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakAttack Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 46 minutes ago, LEBills said: well this certainly makes me feel like it’s probably not serious (fingers crossed) It was definitely kind of interesting how Rasul was the only injured player (besides Dawkins who returned) that was never actually ruled “out”. This is great because he was the most important injured player by far. Followed by Dodson, but there’s a decent drop from Rasul to Dodson imo. Gabe I’m not even worried about hate to say it. Too many big moments this year where Allen bets on Davis and they just aren’t on the same page at all. All I know is I didn’t see that stuff happening once Davis checked out.

Nelius Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Benford is a stud. Hope he’s a Bill for a long time. He’s like the advanced version payoff of all the Levi Wallace/Dane Jackson experimentation. Tyreek was banged up of course but still only had 82 yds as the clear number one option. Also none of this post game footage or info indicates that Rasul might be out for awhile. Really seems just more banged up and precautionary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During a rewatch look at that play where Josh put his hand out of bounds but they didn't see it. Rasul is right there and is limping pretty darn hard. But this extended clip in the locker room is heartening... Edited January 8 by NickelCity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefan66 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) The defense played a whale of a game. Yes, gave up some serious yards early on rushes, but clamped down. If I am seeing this right, we held them to 47 yards on 5 drives in the 2nd half. Did not let them score a point after halftime and allowed our offense to find themselves and win the game. A truly great game! Score not reflective of how badly we beat them in the 2nd half. Edited January 8 by davefan66 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
