They're points per game average dropped about 10 ppg in the second half of the season.

Expect an offseason announcement of them finally building an overhang over the opposing teams sidelines, unfortunately it'll be transparent and oddly magnifying glass like.

I still don't understand why the Dolphins are a such a trigger for most Bills fans, especially on this forum.

 

We've dominated them for years and it's about as one sided of a rivalry out there. Unless deep down ya'all fear them because of how talented they are and praying it all don't come together? (like it certainly almost did this year).

 

Either way who really cares at this point. Time to focus on the task at hand....figuring out how to solve the Chiefs puzzle and this group getting to their first super bowl.

There's some irony in this coming from a Dolphins fan troll on a Bills forum.

If I were the Dolphins front office, you probably stay the course considering they almost won the division despite a roster ravaged by key injuries as the season wore on and a few plays go different in the finale against the Bills they might have just pulled it out.

 

Either way that roster is still loaded and oozing with premium talent....staying healthy a big problem though similar to the Bills and they key guys in recent years.

Since we are talking away their injuries can we take away ours? Can we switch a couple of plays that didn't go or way too

So... Achilles, Superman, and Thor? Quick, someone fire an arrow at Mahomes. Does that make Tua Paul Rudd? ...cuz he seems to shrink when everything's on the line?

 

That's an insult to Paul Rudd and that man is a national treasure!

Wow.. what a great division to be in... we need that Vince McMahon meme:

 

-Patriots hiring Jarod Mayo

-Jets running it back with rodgers

- Tua signing long term

 

Nice start, I needed a 4th one so went with some made up Kelce news, but could see it happen.

miami has done everything they can to stack that roster, and the still completely imploded in december yet again.  the team is soft and just isn't built for late in the season.  if you can be more successful with this roster, it likely comes down to qb, coaching or both.  once miami re-signs tua, the bills will be the division winners for years to come.  get ready for it.  

Having watched McDaniel in interviews and on Hard Knocks, I get the impression that he is a highly gifted nuts-and-bolts offensive play designer—but one who is not great at motivating his players on a human level. Those two skill sets are VERY different. McDermott seems far better than McDaniel on the motivational side of things, which helps explain why the second (and third, fourth, fifth, sixth...) guys on our team have stepped up so capably in recent weeks.

What has Tua done of any consequence against Josh Allen since the below tweets?

MVP candidate, unanimous probowl starter (even over Mahomes), came close to shattering all kinds of records, back to back playoffs, etc

 

Like I've said over and over....he's a damn good QB, he just needs to take the next step at some point which is won't be easy as long as Allen is in the same division.

MVP candidate, Not a real thing. I can call myself an MVP "candidate". Lets see how many votes he gets. T Hill deserves it more.

unanimous probowl starter (even over Mahomes), Worthless popularity contest

came close to shattering all kinds of records, Close, but didnt. So again not a thing.

back to back playoffs, I guess this counts even though it's a team effort.

 

 

He hasnt done *****.

and we don't understand why a miami fan refuses to admit that he's a fan of his team, instead parading around as a bills fan.  that's just some strange *****.

they gave tua the most stacked roster possible.  there's really no where else for him to go.  this was it.  miami has reached its peak, and it wasn't very impressive.

As much as I love to dunk on the Dolphins, there is a logic to this. 

 

Tua has a massive cap hit from his 5th year option. The Dolphins are just as over the cap as we are with even more valuable pending free agents, but while we have the luxury of kicking  ~20M down the road on Allen's contract the only way they get to mitigate that hit is with an extension. And that means paying the going rate, purging some of your best talent or cutting bait and trying a QB from scratch.

 

I didn't say it was good logic, and their situation is self inflicted, so I am enjoying their pain.

Tua should thank his lucky stars that Brock Purdy emerged when he did. There was only enough room for one narrative in the media about a physically limited QB being propped up by his elite skill position players and scheme.

 

Paying Tua is a death knell for this version of the Dolphins. I guess if they believe in him they gotta stick with him but yikes man.

I don't think that anybody in Miami's front office, including the owner, has the stones to make the difficult and painful decision here

 

Tua is never going to be more than he is right now.  He doesn't have the physical tools or leadership abilities to be what Josh Allen & Patrick Mahomes are today

 

He's just good enough to keep winning in September & October and in warm weather - when conditions are right and he can play in rhythm with talented teammates

 

But even though this franchise is probably scared to death of not having a high performing QB, the right move is to trade him now, rip off the band-aid of other high $ contracts and start over

 

But they'll never do it, and I for one am thrilled...


We all know there’s no way they give Tua a competitive QB deal.  My guess is that the hope is to sign him to a Daniel Jones type deal with the option for an out.  It’s a commitment but not one that kills the franchise if it doesn’t work out.  
 

He shouldn’t sign that deal and his agent probably won’t let him.

Tua isn't that bad.  He's not great, but he hits some open guys pretty nicely.   

I do believe he requires elite weapons to be real good, and that will be harder as a greater percentage of the 'cap" goes to his salary.
