Karma and all that. Normally I'd agree but its the Friggin Dolfins. I hate that team even more than the Patriots . Being an Old fart I went through the 0 for the seventies against them . it was so sweet to See Jimbo break that curse . So every year if we beat them twice its the first hurdle , then winning the AFC east, then playoff victories , the AFC crown and the super bowl. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextmanup Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 People really love to beat up on Miami around here. In the '70s, '80s', and '90s, I would have been all over that. I used to hate that team like you can't imagine. But that's all over now for me, for whatever reason, and this current team is fun to watch. Miami needs to continue to build; they aren't there yet; the D was terrible last year, though it improved as the season went along. They just don't have it all together yet, and Tua will always be limited in terms of top end talent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 7 hours ago, BullBuchanan said: Right - so they're stuck with him a minimum of 2 more years, even if he doesn't get any better. Realistically, they'll probably still have to re-sign him to a medium term deal even if they know he can't get it done, because that's the way it works with NFL QBs. The team is built to win now. They aren't starting over with a rookie QB. With my plan they won't be "stuck" as they'll have the ability to jettison him after each season. "Stuck" is giving him a 5-year $250M deal with $150M guaranteed. The way the offense fizzled this last month and their inability to beat winning teams either points to a problem with Tua or McDaniel's system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is the problem. They need to keep building but they are $40m over the cap next year, they have a couple of easier cuts like Ogbah that help. But they don't have a lot of easy restructures because their highest paid guys are older - kicking the can on them is risky. And then they have Elliot (safety), Williams and Hunt (Oline), Wilkins (Dline) and Van Ginkel (linebacker) as UFAs. And a decision to make on Tua. Basically they are at the point you normally get to when you are just trying to manage your roster as an established contender. Not when you have been back to back 1 and dones as a wildcard team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrivefourfive Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 3 hours ago, fergie's ire said: It's interesting that in the same market the Florida Panthers had a high flying offense that was super exciting to watch....during the regular season. But against good teams, especially in the playoffs, they struggled. So, they took a President's Trophy winning team and blew it up....fired the coach traded away a star player and completely changed how they played. People thought they were insane. They struggled in the regular season, barely made the playoffs, and then made the Stanley Cup final. Will Miami do something like that? No chance. Should they? Maybe. Unless they can find a way for this offense to win against good teams they could end up a great regular season team that never goes anywhere. It’s so difficult to imagine a “tough” Dolphins team ever again. It’s been 50 years since they had a tough team, and even that was a No Name defense. I’m gonna say it - Tyreek Hill is their toughest employee. And he’s only tough because he beats pregnant women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many of the recent threads and comments are about the Bills, attacking the city of Buffalo, Josh Allen, etc. Living rent free in their heads is exactly where we wanna be! I believe at halftime of the Bills game they showed the stat that Miami is 11-0 this season with a halftime lead. (Now 11-1.) Stat nerds need to be placed in a special category: useful but not truth. That stat says more about Miami being 0-6 when trailing at half time and therefore being a very weak team, a staff that can’t adjust, it goes on.. Also says that Buffalo is a different animal. You’re 11-0 because you haven’t been up at the half against the Bills,,, yet. Miami is stat fueled, which I think is extremely flawed. Stats hit on the past, and don’t take into account that after this next game the stats will tell a different story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that in mind, there seems to be an odd percentage of dolphin fans who are strictly keyboard warrior trolls. There is a huge online community for that franchise, look a the fan voting for pro bowl for instance, the leaders were half the Dolphins team. Then consider the amount of Blls fans who were able to get tickets for one of their most important home games in decades last week. It is kind of weird. They more than take it personal, they seem like their mission in life is to invent new ways to insult Bills fans, Bills players and the city of Buffalo, it is sad.

I don't think this is a hot take, but I enjoy the division WAY more when both the Bills & Dolphins are good (using "good" loosely here). During the 2 decades before Allen, there weren't many AFCE rivalries to get excited about, and certainly none involving Buffalo. The Dolphins & Pats had moments, but it was more of a "Brady doesn't beat us quite AS often as he beats the Bills & Jets." Rex Ryan tried to get things going with the Jets & Bills, but he was mostly a paper tiger. But when having both the Bills & Dolphins finish #1 & #2 atop the division for 3 straight seasons & both making the postseason the last 2, it's really made the fans start investing in the division, inflamed the back-and-forth banter and has the players keeping receipts! All waaaaay more fun for fans than simply starting each year saying "Ok, we're already down 0-2 because of the Pats, so we just need to go 10-4 from here!" 😅 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnNord Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Not gonna lie, I’ve enjoyed watching the downfall of Miami this season only because their fans and media members have been so obnoxious about the “revolutionary” offense that “couldn’t be stopped.” Everyone points to the TEN loss as the turning point of the season, but I think it was week 3 Buffalo. Sean McDermott wrote the blueprint how to stop Miami, which every team followed. The teams that had the personnel to emulate, usually won. Now there’s major questions about both HC and QB and I think Miami’s only option to run it back with both in 2024. I think McDaniel is a really good offensive schemer but still has a lot of questions as a HC. Then there’s Tua who I feel McDaniel really propped up with his scheme. But he consistently struggles when you take away his first read and defend the middle of the field. It’s a completely 180 from earlier in the season. Not a great position to be in 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think defensive injuries were an excuse. The Fins' defense didn't lose that game for them. They forced the Chiefs to kick 4 FGs! The Fins' offense scored only 1 TD. After Hill caught his TD pass, he never made another big play thanks to the Chiefs' DB -- McDuffie, I think. I think Waddle had one chunk pass play, and Wilson had another one. The Fins' run game was ineffective. The Fins didn't convert a third down until late into the third quarter, or maybe even into the fourth quarter. The Fins offense has disappeared in the second half against the Cowboys, the Ravens, the Bills twice, and the Chiefs yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl2526 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Miami is going to continue being a challenge to Buffalo for the AFC East crown. They struggled down the stretch, but McDaniel and their GM know that and will be looking for ways to enable the Dolphins to finish out the season. Buffalo had issues of their own this season. They finished strong, record wise, but the offense for the most part hadn't really been clicking through about the last half to two thirds of the season. Beane and McDermott understand that and, like Miami will be looking for ways to address the problems they had. Whichever team is more successful is the one that will win more AFC East crowns in the future, unless, of course the Jets figure out how to right their completely swamped ship of New England can quickly rebuild their franchise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did not want to tackle anyone on KC last night. Defense is a mindset. They don’t have it. We do. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
