That is why actually the right response is a bear front because then they don't have enough guys to block everyone on the line if they want to double the tackles. That Niners game in 2020 was the only time I recall seeing Edmunds moved up on the LOS and it was one of his better games as a pro, IMO. 1 Quote

The Bills won by 30, 35 and 15 points, an average of 26.7 points per game.

But, yeah.......that still leaves them 3 TD's, 2 conversions and a FG from the upset. 1 Quote

I agree, bro. While I wouldn’t have wanted him to come to the AFC East, it still made me happy to see the Chiefs lose Hill. I don’t think it does enough for Miami to compete with us and it weakens KC. Go Bills! Edited March 29, 2022 by BillsFan619 1 Quote

Everything was predicated off of the running game. If the Dolphins can't run the ball against our front then it will all still fall on Tua. The guy cannot go toe-to-toe with JA. Have the Fins done enough with their OL to make that happen? Quote

I’m most pleased and giddy after squishing the fish. stopped Hating Miami years ago after the Bills became dominant over them. the Jets are pitiful and I can’t hate that.

There's a reason they took so long to hire someone and ended up with a 1 year coordinator lottery ticket as their HC. Now I believe strongly in Tua's ability to make Bridgewater the starter, but it's not an open competition The scuttlebutt is the owner pays the HC when they lose. Quote

It was so much fun to see us beat him and the Bills Mafia ride him from the time he got off the bus until he got back on it, and then some. But he was also the best at giving right back--middle finger and all. He could dish it out, and he could take it. It was pure competitive entertainment. .... I wish they would have mic'd him up during a game at Rich Stadium. .... But I'm sure it would be nothing but bleaps the entire time. ..... Also, it feels like karma that his son is now a Buffalo Bill. I bet he loves the irony of that. ... Regardless, I, like you, still loath the fish. I hate how they destroyed us during the 1970s--I think we were 0-for the decade. Even with Tyreek, we'll still pound them. Our goal, take the 2020s! Quote

However, we should not ignore Miami's somewhat significant improvements and gap has closed. Bills will still be favorites but losing to the Dolphins is not inconceivable. “That word, you keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means” …, 😁👍 1 Quote

Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 At the end of the day, they aren't significantly better in any one area than Buffalo, while the Bills remain dominant at the most important position in the sport. I do think the Fish made some worthwhile additions in Hill, Edmonds and Mostert but those aren't going to be enough to make up for your lack of an elite QB1. Bills win the east, wouldn't be surprised to see them split with Miami this year though, as I do have them as a wildcard team, and once you're in teams have proven time and time again, anything can happen... like getting 47 dropped on you at the Ralph.

FilthyBeast Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 If McDaniel is truly some sort of genius and savant the Dolphins will eventually find a way to beat the Bills soon even with mediorce QB play. And obviously by hiring an offensive minded guy this time around they are doubling down on Tua and assuming that McDaniel can bring out the best in him like he did with Jimmy G in SF. If that happens and Tua does take another step still think the fish are right up there with the Bills as not only as potential division winners, but SB contenders. Quote

You seem to forget that the Bills now have Von Miller. What will Tua's great improvement look like when he is on his backside all game? 1 Quote

What will Tua's great improvement look like when he is on his backside all game? They did just back up the brinks truck for Armstead and got a Dallas cast off for their OL. It’s a different line at the very least which has only got to be an improvement for them. However we reshuffled our DL and added Miller so I still don’t like their odds. 1 Quote

If Tua has to be game manager, Hill will help but he’s not going to be the same player. It reminds me of when the Bills signed TO or Sammy to get the young QB over the hump 1 Quote
Ayjent Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 Hill could be a headache that doesn’t like the QB situation or the lack of touches if things don’t go as expected. I think it could be expensive trouble for the Dolphins in the grand scheme. We’ll see how it unfolds. Quote

But it's really a ridiculous comment by a seasoned football writer. What if Hill gets to TD's in the first qtr, the whole game is changed. It's a huge signing , remember, Miami won 7 in a row last season and added quite a bit this offseason. Chase Edmunds is a very good RB. Tua played well more often than not last year, they will be tough. Good thing we beefed up our defense. Quote

I think Austin Jackson to Terron Armstead might be the biggest upgrade at a single spot that any team in the league has made this offseason. Can he stay healthy? That is the key question. Connor Williams is also an upgrade on what they had otherwise. I liked Liam Eichenburg a lot coming out. The Dolphins didn't manage his rookie year very well, starting him at guard, then flipping him to left tackle and now have decided to put him at right tackle. I think if they let him mature at that spot then he can be a very good starter. Is it good enough to be a line that supports a dominating run game? Remains to be seen. Quote
