Ethan Bonner, Jack Jones, Jason Marshall Jr, Juju Brents is the likely dolphin secondary bills will see. If ever there is a week for Coleman, Moore, Samuel to show something in the offense, this has to be it. 

 

However true this may be, I expect a typical Brady game plan with a lot of runs and short passes.

true but the Falcons are a halfway decent team and were coming off their bye.

 

The Dolphins are… uhh… not.

Dolphins coming off a mini bye since they last played on a Thursday... But Bills by a billion!

[Success]

I don't want to sound too cavalier about the game tomorrow. Miami almost always gives us a hard time.

 

But I just feel like we are starting a post-Hail Murray kind of run right now.  I think there is a good chance we don't lose another game.

I can't believe Spector could see the field again in any uniform, least of all the Bills. Please please stay healthy Bernard and Milano!

 

Probably for teams

I assume you see some of Cover1's videos?  Two Solomon videos stood out to me this week, one was a pressure on Mahomes, the other was dropping in coverage in which he did a great job. He's a second year R5 pick who is getting better and better.  
found the coverage video—looks dam good. 

 

 

I don't watch the Cover 1 stuff. I saw Solomon lined up inside but don't recall it happening before. The times I've noticed him lined up at edge it seems he's still prone to being enveloped.

Yes, Spector's problem was never that he sucked so much as it was he could never stay healthy.

Guys I got a feeling...

 

We are going to destroy Miami tomorrow we are gonna be happy with our offense and happy to see our defense is still showing the pressure ability it has the last two weeks. I have seen it. 

And no, I have not micro dosed today

 

So you admit to having macro-dosed today!

Gabe runs 3 routes well - Go, Post, Corner. We killed him for it as a WR2 but since we didn’t do a trade, he’s the answer for Keon’s uncanny ability to stay plastered to the DB when he runs his routes.

 

It will be the Amari Cooper effect. No team respects Keon at the X one on one. Teams will respect Gabe because he’s proven he can get open on those routes. Teams currently are rarely if ever keeping a safety deep when they cover Keon one on one because they don’t fear Keon. That safety is dropping into the middle of the field, making it more difficult for Josh who is not the greatest anticipatory thrower so he needs to see those windows.

 

I had zero interest in keeping Gabe at the Jax numbers and a WR2. I really think he can help open up the middle of the field for Josh a make this offense even more efficient because Keon has so far been completely inneffective.

Good post.  Gabe is also a solid blocker.

The Dolphins beat the Falcons 34-10,  2 weeks after the Falcons beat us.  

Valid point, but Cousins was QB for the Falcons that game and that's like giving the opponent an extra defender.

[BVBILLS]

If Josh, Cook and the oline play like last week, good luck keeping up with that. That was vs a great defense.

[bkep32]

McD better have these guys ready, I can see them coming in playing flat

And the Panthers beat the Falcons 30-0 before we beat them 40-9. 

 

Who cares?

Yeah, it seems likely that the Brady and the Bills will seek to break a "selling" Miami team's will tomorrow. As always, I'd like to see them do that with some aggressive downfield shots mixed in. Scoring points quickly can help limit wear and tear on everyone with a one-dimensional opponent offense and fewer high leverage snaps and situations, but it seems like the Bills would generally rather dominate the ball and shorten the game.

 

Gotta throw up my amateur hands, I guess, and hope they can continue to defeat top opponents the way they did last week. Miami ain't a "top" opponent objectively, but they ARE divisional and they DO often stick around against the Bills.

I like your thoughts here, Success.

 

What makes you think that?

[DapperCam]

With Daboll, this game would be a 4 passing TD performance from Allen. Probably in the first 2.5 quarters.

With Brady, I expect a 2 TD performance from Allen, and then the Bills go conservative into grind the clock mode when we're up by 2 scores in the 2nd quarter.

Both approaches get the W, but gotta admit the first approach was more exciting.

[Sojourner]

So is McDaniels getting another season? Just riding this one out? Or is the rest of the year an audition for him to make it another year?

 

Hopefully it’s competitive to keep him around for at least one more lol

I know he gets maligned on this board, but thank goodness we have Dorain Williams. He may be the most dependable LB we have in terms of playing time. And he hits—it may not always be the right guy—but someone is going to get hit. 

[Urban Achievers]

Waving to the Bills bus as it pulls in today hoping Milano sees and is nice to him.

Also just want to say that a good chunk of the Buffalo fans in Europe can see Bills at Dolphins on free to air television, Channel 5 in the UK and RTL in Germany/Austria/Switzerland. 

 

Just to update this, Channel 5 is now showing Baltimore at Minnesota instead of Buffalo at Miami. British fans can still view our game on Sky Sports but not free to air. 

 

Channel 5 seems to announce a set of matches a week in advance but sometimes changes what is scheduled to be shown 2 or 3 days out!

To everyone except Cook, his second-best player. 😕

Yes Cook is having a mediocre season under Brady
