What team isn't? Name me a team that has looked consistent...

[–] xnickg77@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yeah consistency. Allen goes from MVP to glue eater every other drive. They have looked pretty bad in their last 3 games against not great opponents.

[–] Jayypem@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

A Dolphins fan talking about consistency and anyones QB being a glue eater is hilarious. Tua is 1 bad hit away from a retirement home and can't compete against competitive defenses. Those goofy ass trick plays will beat the fuck out of the bad teams though.

Do yourself a favor and ignore any take about Allen coming from a Miami fan lol

[–] _Dancing_Potato@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Allen really hasn't been much of a problem in this string of rough games. He certainly hasn't been great, but ever since the brain dead hero ball of week one he hasn't been losing games for us.

It's more been on a busted up defense, poor play calling, and McD going panic mode if it's a 1 score game on the 4th.

Yeah it’s called losing your best player at every level of your defense

[–] Swanzo2@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

And the three losses were all winnable one score games. They’re fine.

Will those pieces be back for playoffs? Idk what the timeline is like for your injuries

[–] SweetToothKane@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Finishing. Driving 30-40 yards to punt the ball doesn't get you anything.

[–] korean2na@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This is just nitpicking since they won, but I thought they didn't run the ball enough to bleed the clock when it was clear that the game was the Bills'.

That and they ran it with Murray way more than they should have early on. I can understand handing off to Murray with a 3 score lead, but I feel like they're leaving potential to gash and wear down defenses with James Cook.

We didnt even need to run. McDermott just doesnt want the team to win. He will do everything in his power to stand in the way of players doing things they do best

Josh Allen running? Hey lets make him never run again

Josh Allen making big plays? Well those come with turnovers occasionally, so cant do that

Team needs to stop one more drive? Well prevent defense, because we cant allow them to score...

I think last night's win is getting discounted more than it should. They clearly took their foot off the gas and went into clock killing mode, which was probably a bad idea, but even with that they were a bone headed Jordan Phillips facemask penalty away from winning by 14. I saw basically everything in this game I've been looking for the last three weeks. Up tempo, pass focused, Josh running, Kincaid involved. I hope the Bengals sleep on Buffalo based on the final score, because this game made me feel like they're back where they need to be.

Well, for starters, they're missing Milano, White and Jones. Certainly not helping matters.

Offense? When they are clicking they are unstoppable, but when they aren't clicking they get things going when it's too late. Dorsey is still trying to figure it out.

[–] BlackMathNerd@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah, healthy players

[–] judahdk_@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hmmm what could be missing?? Has anyone looked at IR recently maybe it’s hiding there??

[–] gmil3548@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Is it all of their really good players that got hurt?

No team would be dominant with so many top players hurt but they’re still winning and contending so that’s pretty good
