Mcdermott went 9-7 and lost a playoff game his first year with a much lesser roster. McDermott is not perfect McDaniel is all hype until he does something. In head to head matchups the Dolphins last year beat the bills and gave them all the bills could handle in the playoffs with Skyler Thompson as QB. If the McDermott is the better coach, you must think the dolphins roster is better than the bills at practically every no QB position. That is your prerogative.

And the worst team, has arguably the best coach ever and a top 5 defense. AFC North is also going to be a blood bath.

I agree to a point but if you look a little deeper than the final scores you will see the Bills had a very large advantage in some key indicators like yards gained, 3rd down efficieny. The Bills dominated the games in Miami and the playoff game. In the playoff game the Bills gains 423 yards vs 231 for the Dolphins. In Miami in week three the Bills gained 497 yards to Miami's 212 (with Tua). So while the scores were close, the actual play was not so much. The Bills got sloppy in the playoff game and they even gave up a defensive TD. We can easily flip the game in Miami by Gabe Davis holding onto the ball or even if they just had 3 more seconds to spike it and kick a FG. And then McDaniel would be 0-3 vs McDermott...see that stuff goes both ways. In particular for the playoff game, I am tired of hearing about how close it was....that does not work in the playoffs. Just like it does not work to say "the bills almost won in KC in 2021"......nope you lost period. All told in those three games the Dolphins gave the Bills all they could handle the yards were 1366 to 848. I respect the team Miami has built and I think McDaniel looks like a good coach but lets not put the cart before the horse, he has a long way to go to win 3 straight division titles, 4 playoff games in 3 years. Yeah we all know the Bills need to win the SB but people ***** all over McDermott without giving him the credit he deserves. He built this team from straight garbage to a perennial contender. One that the country wants to watch on primetime TV. His leadership has changed the culture in that locker room. So when I hear about how great McDaniel is when all he did is go 500 for one year.....lets see what the next three years brings before crowning him. 1 hour ago, C.Biscuit97 said: On paper, this is the best this division has ever been top to bottom in my lifetime.

Bubba Gump Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Lol, they just placed Jeff Wilson on the PUP. He won't play to at least week 4. Ryan Mostert is not an every down back. Tua is gonna get killed without a competent RB. No wonder they wanted Taylor. Good luck Carp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike the talking heads on ESPN and FS1, they don't spout things just for shock or clicks. If you disagree, I encourage you to actually watch PFT every day instead of piling on because it's cool to hate Florio like it's cool to hate Nickelback. With that out of the way, Simms and Florio said on PFT this morning that the Dolphins have a top-3 roster in the NFL and are the best team on paper in the AFC East, supplanting the Bills. Simms said a position-by-position analysis, outside of QB, would be a landslide in favor of the Dolphins. Do you agree? Why or why not? I'll admit that I was slightly puzzled by the comments, because I think I disagree. QB: Bills OL: Bills, right? RB: Tie? I actually like the Bills' room better. WR: Dolphins? They have elite talent, but I think the Bills have better overall depth. TE: Bills DL: Dolphins, but it's close LB: Dolphins CB: Dolphins, probably, if Ramsey is behind included, but it's close again S: Bills? Specialists: Tie? Is that a Dolphins landslide? I don't think so. If anyone wants a Dolphins roster to go through position by position, this might help https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/who-made-the-dolphins-initial-2023-53-man-roster-a-breakdown-of-each-position/ar-AA1fXtkG Football is a team game. Ultimately what matters most isn't how good the individuals are, but how well they play as a team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
