It just might with Hill and Waddle. It worked against Buffalo on a critical play. It sealed the game for Miami. 

 

It's not pretty but it sure is effective. 

 

It won't. I think they are a good team for sure. They are dangerous, but one trick ponies eventually end.

Does that matter now? 

 

You full of questions today bro.  At the end of the day, who cares?  Let the games play and we will see.

I see the Bears got an impact player in Edmunds.  They still lost, though.

He got his money.  That is good for him.

You think Miami fans are afraid of Buffalo with a healthy Tua? 

Considering two seasons ago Epenesa bruised his ribs, and then last season Milano concussed him (back problem excuse was BS), yea maybe they should be afraid.

Can you elaborate on why the Bills haven't gotten it done? 

 

I'd say because they aren't strong in the trenches and coaching. 

 

Missed this one.  I would have to say I agree. Coaching for the most part I think has been good but I totally blame that 13 seconds on coaching.  At the same time, I would credit coaching on things like beating the Ravens.  They did a great job containing Lamar.

I agree. The coaching against Lamar was excellent. I was very impressed.

A. They badly mismanaged the final seconds of a playoff game that was possibly their only roadblock on the way to the Super Bowl.

B. The Chiefs are in the AFC and have the best offensive coach in the NFL. That makes it very tough to get the coveted bye week. It will limit their chances. 
 

  As for weaknesses, I’d agree that the lines are not great. The coaching was too conservative in a big moment. I think the presence of Allen is enough to overcome the line issues in a flawed NFL . Will the coaching come through when they get another opportunity? We’ll see.

This is a pretty balanced take on what’s transpired to date.

What I saw today was a very confident QB in Tua and very dangerous weapons in Hill and Waddle. Throwing for 466 yards and 3 TD is no easy feat regardless of who you are playing, and the Chargers had a top 10 passing defense last season and a slightly below average scoring defense. It is very difficult to cover two speedy receivers in Hill and Waddle on the outside without leaving the middle of the field open - which is what doomed the Chargers. 

 

With a healthy Tua, the Dolphins are a very potent team. On the positive side, the Dolphins defense looked just as poor as last season, despite adding Vic Fangio, who is a known defensive mind. The defense may be their undoing.

 

The Patriots surprised me the most, and once again showcased how important quality coaching is. The Eagles took a quick 16-0 lead but Belichick made adjustments and the Patriots outscored the 2022 NFC Champion Eagles 20-9 over the final three quarters. I do not believe them to be a threat for the division, but I do believe they could play the role of a thorn in our side during portions of the season.

The offense didn’t look much different than last year . Very dangerous, but the chargers played them completely differently than they did last year and didn’t really pressure Tua. Leaving Hill one in one is a mistake, one that should have been fixed at half time but wasn’t. Even with all those passing yards they should have lost.

Agree with this take. Although Tua certainly played well, I'm curious to see how he does under some pressure and the fact that Hill was left 1 on 1 on so many occasions is either brilliant scheming or just major failure with the Chargers defensive staff. Given that it's the Chargers, I'm guessing it's the later.

Right ? I thought the Chargers lifted the “ blueprint” for defeating Tua the last time they played. They threw it out the window today and paid the price. LAC are a  poorly coached team in general and the HC shouldn’t feel to comfortable right now.

Given that he had 1700+ yards last year I'm guessing it's the former lol
