I think we have the advantage. Expand This is one week where we especially don't need Allen to try anything stupid. Throw the ball away, fall over if the pocket collapses, don't force throws downfield. If we get the Titans game version of Josh Allen we'll win this game by 3+ touchdowns. No reason for him to try and put the game on his shoulders. 2

TheFunPolice Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 There's always the chance a Dolphins WR will just bat the ball down if he gets open like on the 2pt try last week!
par73 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 I am a bit surprised at the arrogance of some fans/local media (talking about automatic wins). After all, the Bills haven't beaten a good team-- and have struggled offensively in all of their games. Fitzpatrick just adds another bit of angst to some fans who have endured the last twenty years.

EasternOHBillsFan Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 We get Foster back. We get Singletary back. We get Kroft back. You get the idea. Bring on Fitzy... don't care. Hoping Milano comes back.

I don't mind if he and Gore have more combined yards than Josh Allen. I want this game to be boring as hell.
Doc Brown Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 On 10/16/2019 at 8:21 PM, Mr. WEO said: True. Bills 17 point favorites and they are averaging 18 PPG... Expand They put up 28 on the Giants and Miami's defense is a lot worse. The one thing the Bills haven't done on defense or special teams is score a touchdown so this may be the game where they run up the score. Hopefully.
DC Tom Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 Jamie Martin Marc Bulger Carson Palmer Trent Edwards Jake Locker Ryan Mallett Geno Smith Bryce Petty Jameis Winston And now, Josh Rosen joins the list of "quarterbacks who have been benched, by injury or incompetence, for Ryan Fitzpatrick." However, only Trent Edwards and Geno Smith have the truly elite status of being benched for Fitzbeardy twice.

That highly specific graph citing the difference in net passing yards per play gained and allowed sure showed me that the Dolphins don't have any chance of beating the Bills this Sunday!? By the way, you might want to look up "straw man". I don't know that it means what you think it means.

He hasn't been effective, but that's a long way from peeing himself. I've been thinking about this. I saw a twitter thing (can't remember from whom) about "Stop Making Excuses for Josh Rosen", he's just not "elevating the team". Well, great QB or even good QB do elevate the team, but I don't think they commonly walk in the door doing that. Andrew Luck did, but not many others. But you know, while the NFL has had its genuine busts, the NFL is also littered with guys who can actually play QB at the NFL level and who were labeled busts after their first seasons even on decent teams with decent coaches. The Chargers drafted Philip Rivers because after 3 years, they thought Drew Brees just couldn't play well enough. Then there are examples playing on inept or relatively inept teams, like Steve Young (Tampa Bay thought he couldn't play) and Alex Smith (made lists of Biggests QB Busts before Harbaugh took over). This article has a viewpoint: https://thedraftnetwork.com/articles/set-up-to-fail--the-josh-rosen-story Expand Got the feeling Flores felt Rosen would pee himself vs Bills at the Ralph. Rosen is not a leader. Most good QBs are. Not sure he will be a starter again in league. Edited October 17, 2019 by freddyjj
