msw2112 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 17 minutes ago, Cray51 said: I believe Poyer mentioned they moved from two high to single high after the first half in an effort to stop the run. McDaniel has great ability to scheme a gameplan on offense, but I dont think he adjusts well. In the second half, we saw the exact same concepts and formations from the first half, and then once it was stopped a few times he just abandoned it entirely. There have also been metrics that show the Dolphins get worse and worse in efficiency as games go on. It's exactly what you said, if you stop them early, your chances of winning go up and up as the game goes on. McD gets flak, but he did a great job handling Miami's offense. It reminded me of his ability to stop the Ravens as well. He really forces teams to win in secondary manners. He wont let you run your offense over and over again. I don't want to get ahead of myself, but let's hope he's using that ability once again in about 3 weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was in a walking boot yesterday and now, in the biggest game of the season, he's putting more pressure on his bad wheel by doing backflips. What a fool. I don't question his talent - he's arguably the best WR in the league when healthy, but what a jackass. He truly took stupidity to the next level. If a Bills player that was critical to the team's success did that on a bad ankle, I would have been furious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 1 hour ago, Bruffalo said: Tua is a fantastic QB for McDaniels' system, which is to make one read and throw the ball very quickly. He's also decent to great at presnap reads. But he's a horrific improviser and can't go through progressions at an elite level. Once you take away the designed first option his efficiency plummets. Compare and contrast Jackson. They're very much alike. Neither can make progressions. Tua can read the field like a book quickly. Jackson can read the field like a coloring book. Both can and will blast the ball out quickly. Both will scramble or make mistakes trying to prolong a play. Jackson, however can succeed with athletic skills when moving. Neither has developed all 3 levels of the passing game according to their potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every snap was basically a 40 yard dash but eventually it took its toll on him and he became less effective toward the end of the year.

Some of the more interesting thread discussions, include, (but are not limited to): - Fire Danny Crossman! - We got stupid fans - Trade for Justin Fields - The Dolphins have had a curse ever since moving to this stadium built on a native American burial ground Feel free to add your own favourites. So funny you posted this cuz I was over there laughing and just enjoying tasting their tears. They have soooooo much vile hatred of Bills, Josh Allen, Buffalo the city, Bills fans, etc...its crazy. I find it funny when they talk about how "low class" Buffalo and the people who live there are when the majority of their posters sound like they didn't even get a G.E.D. let alone a HS diploma and try and talk all tough and street lmao. Especially when anyone I know who has gone to Buffalo will echo the same thing we felt when we were there...the city and near areas like Niagra Falls are beautiful, the people are incredibly friendly and nice, and the food is great. Miami on the other hand is a cess pool while Buffalo is one of the fastest growing tech cities in the world and one of the fastest growing cities in the world of ages 18-35, a sign of a thriving city for youth and employment. And I am born and raised in CA, so I am not saying that as a homer as I have never lived in Buffalo. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffeesforclosers Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 That superfin poster over there...that guy's a hero. He's almost as delusional as all those people who think Tua is a great quarterback because he stacks up crazy stats against garbage teams and bum DCs.

FireChans Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 51 minutes ago, TheFunPolice said: McDaniel had a really nice plan on offense to run the ball with those wide runs to keep the defense off balance. McDermott must have made some sort of adjustment that took that away and that was essentially their run game so they became one dimensional. The Shanahan tree/system is impressive and wins a lot of games, but from what I've read there are relatively few plays in the game plan, so if you can catch on before they get up multiple scores on you it's also quite stop able. The Shanahan plan is get up multiple scores and then just lean on you. It also cost him twice in the Super Bowl (Atlanta/NE and SF/KC) when the other teams caught on early enough and they didn't have the talent advantage to just win anyway. Also, I think Hill's ankle got worse and worse as the game went on. Dolphins are a lot like the 49ers in that they had a Pro Bowl roster and were just too fast to cover. But then guys start getting hurt and the delta between them and every other offense gets smaller. Tua is still Tua, but he doesn't add much, just like Purdy. Then DC's catch onto some of what you're doing and adjust. IMO, that's why "injuries cost us a Super Bowl" is the mantra of a Shanahan system The Shanny disciples can be figured out by good defensive coaches if they are hiding the QB. Which is why BB took McVay’s lunch money in the first Super Bowl. And why McDermott dogwalks McDaniel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're suffering from confirmation bias, and maybe other bias. Most people who know football seem to give Jackson props for how he has developed as an actual QB and how the Ravens passing game has developed, especially this last year. Seems GRo was a giant plug holding back their passing game - who woulda thunk? 2 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems GRo was a giant plug holding back their passing game - who woulda thunk? Oh he's got a lot better. Much more patient. Much more willing to let a play develop. But it's not a 3rd option or a read the full play. He's had his best year as a QB as a pro by a mile. Thanks for the insinuation, though.

There are a lot of kinds of bias, but where did you go? the wrongest of ways and if i was wrong than i apologize. the first 5-8 games somewhere i kept seeing his stats and hearing the hype and realized he's doing great. watched a game or so and saw a great improvement. he doesn't rush to pull it down and run or force a bad throw. he has thrown to better WR's and thrown them open much better than he has before. i watched him in several games later. the fins game he wasn't reading beyond the second option.

Like with Waddle and Mostert. They're out... they're improving... no, they're out... wait, they practiced today... no, they're still out... didn't feel any pain... nope, still out. Right up until 4 or 5 o clock we were getting conflicting reports on both of them. ***** off with your mind games, McDaniel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
