Tua looks like the rookie he is. Telegraphs his throws and is late.
Yep. I don't know why some believe that the Dolphins are going to run the table now, in particular with Tua under center. The Dolphins have a great HC, and a really good defense. Tua is a crapshoot, and if Fitz is pressed back into service and plays hero ball -- then they are done.

Denver's offense is so bad.
Maybe I'm completely off base here, but I get the feeling that Denver will be bad for a long, long time. Elway, who owns a pretty magical steakhouse in Cherry Creek (I'm being serious here -- it's legit great), has done practically everything wrong with a team that I thought would be able to put a few pieces back in place and contend. Then there's the family feud behind ownership. Again, I could be completely off base, but this all seems like the blueprint for many years of dysfunction to come.

Can we talk about how the Lions just got shut out by a team starting an XFL quarterback? Matt Patricia needs to be living on the street.
Makes sense because he already looks like he's been living on the streets. His rendition of hobo chic has really played itself out.

More horse shoes up Miami's butt... Turnover - 22 yd drive. And Lock is awful
Do you ever get the feeling that nobody does less with more than John Elway?

Pats lose, eh? EXCELLENT!

Given what I saw, "gone for the year" would be very optimistic. Not good. At all.

For most of my lifetime (1970s though now) the Bills' coaches have been clown shoes. McD isn't perfect, but clown shoes he is not.

It’s been since 95. Brady finally leaves and the Bills become the favorite for the first time in forever. Start 7-2, lose a game like we did today and let the Dolphins somehow run you down....it won’t be received well. If it’s not going to happen this year, when is it going to happen?
95? Why 95? The Bills were competitive in 1995 and 1996, had a down year in 1997, a roller coaster year in 1998, an epically disappointing year in 1999 followed by a mediocre-at-best year in 2000. In my view things started to be horrid in 2001 and that carried on until 2017. But there's more to it than that. The Bills were mostly worthless in the 1970s, 1982-1987 were pretty awful, and then you get the window of time I just stated -- where the organization fielded, year after year, a horribly coached team that was also mostly devoid of talent.
If you look at TBD early in the season, it seemed like a majority of the fans thought that the team was going to go 10-6 or 11-5 and would have a playoff win -- and that next year would be the SB year. Could the Bills fall apart this season? Of course, but I don't think so, as they've been way too competitive in most of the games this year, and even with missing pieces and inconsistent play. Could the Bills win a playoff game this year then get bounced? This is more the scenario I expect.

Knox is awful. Just awful. I had thought that the team was beyond drafting guys like this. What a miss.

Not winning the division this year would really shatter this fan base. It was all set up to go our way for once and it’s about to be seriously in question. The Dolphins are going to be 9-3. The Bills would have serious work to do to get there. If the Bills didn’t lose today I’d be feeling a little differently but they did lose. In just the most ***** up, disgusting way possible. That’s why we all are the way we are. This team makes us all this way. Even when it’s “good” ...it’s this.
The fan base would be shattered because the Bills didn't win the division this year? The same fan base that would still sell out the joint to watch EJ Manuel under center for this team? The same fan base that kept buying tickets, still selling out the joint multiple times, to watch about 17 years worth of lost football years? You are being overly dramatic.

1 I'd imagine it wouldn't have been completed 49 out of 50 times. Do wonder how much Norman, Wallace, and then Jackson being out affected that play. May have been one of them would have been over there too, Seemed they were hurt by lack of height on that play. Often the defense will put there tallest guy out there, but with 11 seconds, it was still kind of too much time for that as may not have been the last play.
2 Agree Allen did struggle, could have had a couple more int's. Very lucky on that pass to Singletary too. 2 weeks in a row defense blitzed the hell out of us and Allen was running around like crazy.
3 I thought I was imagining things with the missing down and distance that I just wasn't looking in the right spot and it was really there. Maybe the best camera operators and producers were all in Augusta?
5 They have to figure out how to better run the ball. Maybe if Morse and Ford are both back, will get better there.
I agree with a lot of this, but what happened to point #4?

Keep writing, @Virgil, regardless of the temperature of the forum. It's something to look forward to, in particular after a loss like this one.

I don't know why there's a debate amongst some Bills fans about the best RB. It's grim, and a reboot is definitely required. And also may Knox enjoy a short stint on the Maid of the Mist and never return.
-
Time to grind, folks.
ps - I'm done with Knox.
-
Great stop. Maybe the team can find a way to run and control the clock. Of course I'd take 7, even early, but AZ are def capable of the knockout punch.

I took a quick shower during halftime, and maybe I should go back upstairs and take another one. That play was like bathing in trash.

DOG, not a PF, but I remember that when I think Dan Reeves or Joe Gibbs did that in a Bills game a ways back. Two TO's in a row on a Bills FG attempt, which moved us closer and we made it for the win.
I remember that game!
And it was Gibbs, if I recall.

From my end of things, I think that being critical of Tua is a counterpoint to many Bills' fans who are making strong suggestions that the Dolphins will win out and win the division. Tua is a wildcard on a team with some good bones (HC, D, maybe ST). He has a limited body of work and doesn't look lights out to me at this point.
