Yea I don’t get it…if Miami and buffalo are both great teams (I’m not sure Miami is great yet) you’d expect them to split so how is game 3 a must win? We lost a ‘must win’ against NE last season and won the rematch and the division and pantsed them in the playoffs

I’m genuinely confused by the overreaction here…why are we weighting Miami vs a decimated ravens secondary so heavily over how Miami looked against the NE defense week 1? did people not watch the game today? The ravens defense was dreadful all game and Miami couldn’t really capitalize until even more ravens dbs got injured we were getting close to the announcer sending fans onto the field to play corner for baltimore lol

Their defense looked horrible today and has historically played poorly against buffalo. Their linebackers are not disciplined enough to account for qbs that can run the football. We can talk Miami up as much as we want to but they still objectively don’t match up well against us we really have to see at least one game where the bills don’t look very good before people start crowning Miami and even that id say would be an overreaction. We smoked a Super Bowl caliber team and they beat an injury riddled ravens team by 3

That’s all pretty relative…our schedule eases up in the back half

They have to play the Super Bowl favorites twice and we don’t have to play ourselves so idk how much easier their schedule can be. Also lac looked just as good as kc Thursday night so it’s not like they’re getting a layup there either double also lol…we negated their easier nfc west matchup by beating the rams week 1…so I’d argue they have a harder schedule going forward

I’m even more convinced the bills are a terrible matchup for Miami after todays game….that Miami defense is not what it used to be and tua just will not take risks against decent zone coverage so he won’t beat josh in a shootout. He’ll only take a shot when receivers are ‘college open’. Most of his yardage today came from completely busted coverage if our defensive line is as good as it looked week 1 Miami will be even less of a problem than last year theyre a better team than last year overall I’d say but they play perfectly into the bills strengths…they struggle against dual threat qbs and tua is not very strong going through his progressions. we are disciplined in the secondary and excel at disguising our zone coverages baltimore could give us trouble when they get healthier so today was the best result

The short throws weren’t really hurting Baltimore…the busted coverages on the deep balls killed them. Miami had quite a few drives derailed in the first half from wr screens/quick throws behind the line of scrimmage losing yardage. That was the strangest game…halfway through I’d say tua had a below average game then Baltimore started losing even more dbs to injury and couldn’t stop a paper bag it wasn’t even superior route running or a great scheme the ravens seemed like they were trying to run cover 0 but the cbs kept thinking they had safety help. Really really odd. Tua made a handful of nice plays and a handful of bad plays but a majority of his statistical output was routine plays against blown coverage sounds crazy if you just look at his stat line but he was pretty average imo…a great qb would’ve won that game by three scores. That was an easy 50 burger for a great offense I just can’t believe how bad baltimore was

Mahomes absolutely imploded…the bengals started playing single high safety with a couple robbers and the chiefs can’t really run the ball and mahomes just wouldn’t throw into tight windows

That’s what I was saying to you originally! But we started playing this can josh be mvp game lol I couldn’t care less who the mvp is if we win the Super Bowl

Even if we blow a few coverages I don’t think tua is matching scores with josh…a shootout is not the game they want. They don’t really match up against buffalo well especially if von is the difference maker that it appeared he was in week 1

It’s not really him throwing double digit ints it’s rodgers throwing a freakishly tiny number of ints. Rodgers looked pretty lost in week 1 without davante so it’s looking to be mahomes and Allen as the early front runners

They lost quite a few guys on defense down the stretch of the game too I couldn’t even keep up with it. Queen was down then a couple defensive backs were down idk if any of those guys came back

People say wide open and it’s usually an exaggeration but I am not exaggerating lol tyreek hill was running completely free in the secondary on numerous occasions

Oh I didn’t realize we were talking about the mvp award. Honestly if we keep racking up huge leads I’d prefer us sitting josh to keep him healthy late in games over winning a trophy that isn’t even the Super Bowl trophy. tua would have been pulled late today also if Miami wasn’t so terrible on defense in the first half.

Lol yea if he could do anywhere close to that against an above average defense on a consistent basis. You’re not gonna see defenses like that too often with the schedule the afc east drew this year. He played about the same as he did in the NE game but NE didn’t forget how to communicate on defense in week 1

Lol that will not be hard to do…that was honestly one of the worst defensive performances I’ve ever seen. I’m not sure how many people actually saw the game here. Baltimore was blowing routine coverages all day

Why wouldn’t that matter lol? that’s a strange take. I’d take 299 yards against a perennial Super Bowl favorite over 1000 yards against a teams practice squad defense…especially if we’re trying to extrapolate the results from todays game to how Miami will perform against the bills. NEs defense is not as good as ours and they didn’t have much trouble slowing Miami down. That’s a lot better indicator of how we will do than a bunch of dudes off the street in the Baltimore secondary.

I think they have flip flopped a stout defense and a mediocre offense for a good offense and a mediocre defense and they’ll probably finish around the same amount of wins

Remember when Gronk elbow dropped the back of tres head when he was down lol

Lol that’s not how you phrased it originally… you said ‘I don’t think josh Allen has ever done this’. And no against that defense today I would not consider that an especially impressive accomplishment…tua did not do anything that bridgewater couldn’t have done. Bunch of wr screens/checkdowns then he hit a few home runs to absolutely wide open guys.

Huge chunk of the yardage was absolutely embarrassing blown coverages by Baltimore…cbs passing receivers off thinking they had safety help when they didn’t on numerous occasions. They were absolutely awful today

Just need a soft cover 2 and to rush 4…same game plan as vs kc while Miami isn’t running the football super well. Tua can’t really throw receivers open and he gets gun shy in tight windows. I can’t even stress how bad the Baltimore defense was today…even in the first half

People on this board are not so subtedly comparing tuas game today to Josh’s accomplishments lol

Didn’t he have the highest passer rating in nfl playoff history? Shame the defense blew that kc game you certainly wouldn’t have people saying tua is at his level now

Na I think half of us would realize it was mostly a result of the ravens absolutely terrible defense. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many completely wide open receivers in 30 years of watching football and it wasn’t even like they were schemed open…the ravens dbs were quite literally forgetting to cover guys.
