Sharky7337 Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 They all hugged fitz post-game last week and none of them are considered close contact? Hahahahah Mod Edit: We are NOT going to discuss the ins and outs of contact tracing here. Information on how far back contact tracing looks can be found in many locations on the internet. Please respect @SDS pinned thread

Get well soon Fitzbeardy. If we don’t play our starters then Miami can win with Tua. Allen and Diggs will get one quarter, if that. Same with Tre, Milano, Edmunds ...

This might be an easy game for Tua if our defense will rest starters as well , all he’ll have to do is hand the ball of 40 times and that might probably do it , hope I’m wrong

Whichever team can execute the basics, force turnovers, and capitalize on them will win. That has been the Dolphins formula with Tua all along. Barclay throwing to Davis, McKenzie and Kroft is not going to scare anybody either. 1
K-9 Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 13 minutes ago, RyanC883 said: if Tua is the starter and not a close contact not a huge issue for Miami I guess. I think that depends. If it turns into yet another situation where Tua is stinking up the joint but there’s no Fitz waiting to bail them out as he has frequently this season, then I can see where that might get in their heads a little. And that can snowball if Tua starts pressing.

Fitz has been very effective in relief of Tua (see last week versus Raiders). So one game and you say he has been effective? Let's look at the other game he came in for Tua and lost the game with 2 INTs... Fitz for relief 1-1... Not very effective.

Your so absolutely positive on our Bills, always saying how we will win/dominate other teams, and play well overall! You’re so uplifting for the rest of us..., I don’t know why on earth people call you the Eeyore of TSW... Oh, and happy New Year, Go Bills !!! 2

I mask up, washed my hands, etc. I guess sometimes viruses just virus. Always a neighbor or a friend you didn't have your mask on for b.c you felt comfortable around them. Contact tracing always leads back to something like that.

I’ve seen nothing from Tua that shows me he can put up points against those guys. 1

He scored two last minute drives to keep them alive against LV. I call that effective. Not only that but he helps Tua on the sideline. I call that effective.

Unlike many here, I'd still like to get the 2nd seed, so I'm hoping McD will play the starters to lock it in. 1

I have not seen Barclay engineer a drive for a TD this year. Maybe he has but I don’t remember one. I’m not counting the long run by Motor against Denver. Edited December 31, 2020 by Bob in STL 1
ChevyVanMiller Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 The Dolphins signed Jake Rudock (24 career passing yards) to be Tua's back-up for the game. https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/2582424/jake-rudock
