Have you seen the movie Seabiscuit where there's a big match between Seabiscuit and a huge powerful race horse?  (War Admiral was his name, I think.)  Spoiler alert: Seabiscuit wins.  The way the little team behind Seabiscuit set it up, Seabiscuit would take the early lead and then let the other horse catch up and pass him, but then Seabiscuit would catch back up and pass the big horse, ripping his heart out and destroying his will.

 

That's what the Bills do to the Dolphins.  

Did you see the movie Secretariat where he kicked the crap out of the other horses from start to finish to win the Triple Crown?  Give me that.

I just think we went to the tush push once too often. How bout a naked bootleg while everyone is bunched over the A gap?

It’s coming soon in the playoffs. Count on it. Especially after they struggled a couple times today picking up the 1 yard. They will start practicing options off the tush push and use them at the right time in the next 2-3 games.

Davis trips over his own feet .. but does it still get intercepted otherwise ?

It definitely does-that was a poor play right from the beginning. Poor play design (pretty much just hoping Josh makes a Superman play) but Josh’s throw pretty much had no chance of being caught. That’s picked even if Davis doesn’t fall down. I will agree with everything else the OP said, but this play wasn’t a good one

Every team does.

 

We won. It's been do or die playoffs for 5 weeks and we've won 5 straight.

 

As Josh and Diggs said to each other post-game... 4 more!

Agree. Football can be ugly. To the complainers today I'll ask a simple question. Would you rather lose, but look pretty doing it or win and win ugly?

 

That's all football comes down to. Did you win or lose. And the Bills have won ugly all the way to the #2 seed. I'll take that over looking good, setting records, being the toast of the NFL and ending up a 6 seed ANY day.

the key is to slow down Seabiscuit, and let him look his opponent eye to eye.  Then it is game over, Seabiscuit is the ultimate competitor who refuses to lose.

Josh is Seabiscuit

If Knox gets that DPI, that probably results in TD1.  If Gabe doesn't trip over his feet that's probably TD2.  If Cook actually had hands that's TD3. And a wide open Diggs on an easy 89 yd TD4 is lost on the over throw.  I'm ecstatic about the division championship but there's still stuff to clean up.

Figured you might blame Gabe. How about “if Josh stops turning the ball over “. Of course not.

It is extremely important that you pointed this out.

At best maybe he could have prevented the INT.  The miss to Diggs is the could have been TD2

Championship caliber teams aren't perfect. But they can still win when they aren't. How many times did we think we had the Patriots down, only for Brady to steal it at the end? That's who we are now 

 

What I'm seeing is a Bills team that can not only come back, but then hold the opponent off in the 4th quarter.

The one he tripped on, when they showed the replay it seemed like that db was going to get it even if Gabe didn't trip.  The morning shows are going to eat that up as a reckless josh int - but it was 4th down so he just chucked it up after the play broke down.

 

On the Diggs overthrow I feel like the shoulder injury is affecting Josh's long throws - he doesn't seem to be getting as much loft on them, that one came out really flat

Despite all the gaffs when we repeatedly shot ourselves in the foot, the play that pissed me off the most was not getting that last first down on 4th down with a half yard to go. We would have salted the game then and there and nobody would have sweated the final moments. 

I think we lost a little bit of creativity there....We told the Dolphins what we were going to do and they were ready for it.  Instead, we could have fooled all of them and have cook play pitch and catch or Josh does an end around.

Fangio is one of the greats of this generation, Dolphins were 7-1 at home and should have been 8-0 (Tenn last minute comeback was the only blemish).

 

We should have crushed them it’s true, but this may be the toughest game we play until at least the AFCCG if we get that far. 

 

 

Well if we don't get that far then its safe the tougher game was before the AFCCG

Take nobody for granted

Still caught a break on the Sherfield TD. Balanced itself out in terms of bad/good luck. 
 

McDaniel’s face afterward… 😂

They’ve definitely been tiptoeing the line as of late with sloppy offense and turnovers but still winning.  They better clean it up or they’ll be out of the playoffs quickly
