You guys realize that James Cook isn't the only one allowed to run the ball...right? That that unicorn of a QB we have that can run with the ball in his hands? Like Leonard Fournette? They are allowed to run as well.
Good point, but a running back vs running back game with no passing is still a toss up. Not exactly what you want with Josh Allen. I think people overvalue Fournette a bit. He’s a decent short yardage guy, but I’m not sure he’s going to be much better than any other RB #2. Fournette has a lot of miles on him.

I'm hearing a lot about how the bad weather will be the great equalizer. But that bit of conventional wisdom applies more to high school & college football where the discrepancy in talent between two teams can be enormous. But in the NFL playoffs how big is the difference in talent between the eventual SB champ and the worst PLAYOFF team?
BOTH teams passing games will be impacted by the weather. How do we know that considering all that Allen brings to the table compared to Rudolf that the bad weather might actually favor the Bills passing game? Will the weathers impact on the Steeler's passing game allow McD to be much more aggressive with the run blitzes to shut the Pittsburgh rushing attack down? These conditions might actually hurt the Steelers as much or more then the Bills. Think about Pitt spending half the game setting up that play action strike to Pickens that in the past went 70 yards for a TD only to see the ball flutter into the ground before it reaches it's target.
When a loaded Ohio State plays a bad Northwestern team awful weather can be a great equalizer and turn a 40 point Buckeye win into a 10 point win. But I just don't see it having a big impact in the NFL. BOTH teams will be negatively affected.
I agree, but I think my fear isn’t the passing game being affected, it’s the passing game being completely eliminated. If we get blizzard conditions with 50mph wind gusts, no one is throwing the ball. It would be Cook vs Harris the entire game. Josh Allen is an all time great, but even he’s not throwing into 50mph wind gusts and a blizzard.

Steeler like? What? You mean the team that has to play us on the road.
-
That was a long yard. I didn’t love a QB sneak there.
-
That Fournette wildcat look made me nervous. Glad that wasn’t the play.

Allen bailing the team out again.

Just when we got the momentum, we become dumb.

We should be running our normal offense. Miami had timeouts and plenty of time, we need to put them away. I don’t like the play calls after the sneak.
-
I don’t love the conservative offense though. I get the clock aspect, but we aren’t built for that. I hope Fournette works some magic.
-
Credit to McD for not chickening out.

Cook making me really nervous tonight.

McD deserves a lot of credit for the defense tonight. Our roller coaster ride on offense makes us lose track of that. The “unstoppable” Miami offense has been made to look bad.

Are we done blaming Josh’s turnovers for everything that’s wrong with this team? That drive is exactly what Allen brings to the table, and we aren’t winning anything without him and his turnovers.

Allen is making throws that only he can make. One guy on this planet can make those throws. The turnovers sometimes go along with that, but he’s the reason we win games.

This bobsled thing is dumb.

That punt return was the emotional swing we needed.

Ours might be too unfortunately 😂
True, but I’m not certain how serious the Douglas injury is. That’s the biggest recent one.
-
No matter what happens in this game, Miami’s season is toast with all these injuries.

I take back everything I ever said about Harty as a player.

Or you know, our QB turns it over every time we're within striking distance of actually scoring points.
That’s also true, no doubt, I just posted at a moment where I wasn’t very impressed with Brady’s plethora of first down runs. Allen’s turnovers have helped hide the fact that offense has been poorly called and schemed tonight imo.
-
We’re being out coached in a big game once again. The winning streak and playoff birth has been fun, but it’s a bad trend.

Brady killed the momentum that drive. The players deserve better coaching.

Joe Brady is hell bent on running the freaking ball when the Dolphins have no pass rushers!!!!
Mixing it in is ok, but he’s just wasting first downs right now.

I’m hoping the weather isn’t as bad as predicted. I’m also not predicting a Bills loss either way. We have what it takes to win, I just don’t understand people pretending that Allen can throw the ball if the wind and snow is what they predict. No one is throwing into that type of wind. It’d be against the laws of physics. We shouldn’t lose this game, but be realistic about the type of game it might be.
