1/15/2023 Wildcard weekend - Dolphins @ Bills - 1st half game thread

[The Jokeman]

Beasley needs to catch something in the 2nd half. 

[Blank Stare]

Longest 2nd qtr ever. Should be blowing the doors off this team. Sloppy football has been keeping inferior teams in games and giving them hope all year. Put these pricks away in the second half.

Bills are killing themselves ……

Every loss this year has been on the bills. They will win this game but man against a better team they will not.

If all you got is Diggs and Cook, then just feed Diggs and Cook. Those two and some Allen runs can get the job done easy.

Mix in a bunch of Knox

[Simon]

OLine playing very well outside of just a couple late switches

[Nitro]

Hindsight.   Bills should have kicked a FG on the first drive.  Do not leave points on the field.

Equal, i’d say. Waddle dropped a much easier long ball than Shakir.

You mean the ball that Tre knocked out of his hands?

That's an assumption.  The people that review make their own opinions.  A review is warranted for a close call like that

 

He didn't have possession of the ball until he was already out of bounds. He got no feet in. 

[RocCityRoller]

Had to pop in to see what the thread looked like

[SCBills]

If we advance..
 

Diggs

Davis

Knox

McKenzie

?

 

Not sure I have the stomach to watch Brown or Beasley out there after that half. 
 

Shakir was promising but that drop can’t happen.

We're not the Chargers.  Some bad breaks on those picks, but I expect the Bills to dominate the 2nd half.

not at all.  they were both open and dropped it.  on top of that, the bills had a td called back from a wr drop

Turnovers and ST's mistakes have accounted for Miami's scores.

I’ll add to that the Miami yards on turnovers. Just killed us. The Brown INT should’ve been a punt, but they run it back 50 freaking yards!

49ers were losing at halftime yesterday as well..... But the Bills receivers are costing the Bills a comfortable game...  

This.  It’s time to get Hines more involved in the passing game.

Not “as well.”  May want to look at the scoreboard again.  

[WhitewalkerInPhilly]

Refs are doing us no favors. Two challenges needed to be used on obvious calls. The deep catch from Shakir overturned. No holding on the Beasley call. Diggs catches the ball, adjusts but keeps control and taps both feet. Bills get shafted

As long as we don’t turn the ball over 2 times per quarter for the rest of the game we should still win going away. Dolphins have done nothing on offense. They can’t drive the field and score a TD.

Yeah I was saying the same thing. A LOT had to go right for the Dolphins in that 1st half to even be in the game. We just cant let Skylar Thompson gain confidence in the 2nd half and put together some scoring drives and we should be good

[SUNTANBILLS FAN]

***** you dorsey run the ***** ball stop going deep
