11/3/24 Game 9 GAMEDAY! Bills vs Dolphins Post Game Thread

What world are we living in where some QBs aren’t blamed for atrocious throws that result in an INT but the drop by Coleman that ended in a Ramsey INT is all Josh’s fault…

 

Hurts my brain trying to comprehend.

with 5 seconds left on the clock???

That’s a good point. They would be at the Bills 49 after the kick, so they need a play for 5 or 10 yards in 4 seconds. Maybe, but not probable I guess.

I’m happy for the win and so happy for Bass, but at the time I thought the Bills decision to kick a field goal there was dumb. if Bass missed, Dolphins had two timeouts, could have very easily picked up 10 or so for the Sanders FG.

I wasn’t so sure. The defense hadn’t stopped them basically all day. Of course they could have scored quickly and that was the fear. If Mia played for the OT , a coin toss might have decided our fate. At least the FG attempt gives you a chance and uses some valuable time if it’s no good.

I think 5 or 6 seconds is the bare minimum for a 10-yard OOB play.

 

Would have been a 67-yard attempt for the Dolphins kicker from where they would’ve received the ball, interesting to see what they would’ve tried there had Bass missed.

McClappy is 15-2 against the Dolphins.

 

What a bum !

Haha let's be honest, Josh is the one who owns Miami.


McDermott has had some good game plans to slow down Miami's offence I'll give him that , but not today as McDaniel schooled him.

 

Got bailed out by Josh and Bass

Yea I can see why poyer went for the big hit too though…there’s a good chance that could’ve saved the game for them in an alternate universe.   that was an absolutely perfectly thrown ball 

I question Allen throwing that ball. We needed a first down and Coleman wasn’t open. If poyer wasn’t stupid, we are punting and Miami most likely is kicking a field goal for the win.

Give Miami one more chance with McDaniels and Tua. I think they’ve almost figured us out. God knows Happy McClappy won’t adjust. 

I’ve been hearing that for years 🤣

Wasn’t open?  Guess I have to pull that up again to make sure I’m not crazy.  Looked like an absolutely beautiful throw that absolutely should’ve been caught.  Poyer only laid him out there because of how good a throw that was to an open receiver it really wasn’t a stupid idea just stupid to lead with the helmet

I am still scarred by the Cowboys MNF game years back.

No one sucks the life out of a huge divisional win quite like the two yahoos on the WGR post-game show, Schopp and Bulldog. Negative, condescending, crotchety old men (and I know what I’m talking about because I’m one too). 
 

this win was tough, hard-fought and nerve wracking…the post-game show doesn’t need to be that too!

The other D back was all over him, close to Pi but he wasn’t open.

Dolphins get no respect because of how they’ve played with two qbs that probably wouldn’t even start in the xfl it’s kind of weird…the negative crowd is usually busy minimizing the opponent after we win.  
 

that offense is great and the defense is not and that’s exactly what we saw

Josh did that a LOT today.  Its an old issue for him when facing a good pass rush, he throws off his back foot. Drove me nuts today. 

 

I'd rather he throw them into the ground than sail them into the hands of the other team. If he keeps erring on that side, I aint mad.

It may not seem that way, but this was a very important win for the Bills.  

 

1) It goes a long way toward the Bills sowing up the AFC East again.  No guarantees, but a 4+ game lead in the division at mid-season is a pretty strong lead.

2) It basically finished the Dolphins for 2024.  So sad too bad.

3) It gave the Bills some playoff breathing room as the schedule gets harder coming up.  Over the next 5 games the Bills travel to Indy (4-4), host KC (7-0) and SF (4-4) before traveling to LAR (3-4) and Det (6-1).  

5) It illustrated that the Bills can win close games and and can win without their "A" game.

6) It also illustrated that the Bills have things to work on and can get even better.  Our rushing defense still needs significant work.  We are also razor thin in the D backfield.  

7) Despite missing the extra point, Bass' kick should give Bass more confidence and the Bills & the fans more confidence in him.  That kick would have been good from 70.

Listen to tarpon Johnson's presser 

 

The bills were ok with the fins running the ball as opposed to trying to chuck it around.  They felt if the dolphins played a run heavy game put offense would outscore them

 

And they did.  Were it not for the ridiculous calls and the drops the Bills win this game going away, like 42-20.

 

We let Achane run all over the place in the first game.  We outscored them and won.  So of course Miami decided to double down with the run.  And they lost.  Only an all-time rig job and a couple of bad plays made it close.  

 

We’re better than they are.  We’ve been better than them for a long time.  They’ve pulled a couple wins out of their a$ses over the last seven years and almost did it again today, but that happens in this league.

 

A win’s a win.  And a win where you let them think they have a chance and then rip their hearts out is a GREAT win.  :)

Also, once again - Josh leaves the field with a TD lead only for McD and the defense to cancel out his greatness and let the other team score at will.

 

Thank goodness they let them score so quickly there was enough time for Josh to bail him out again.

 

Another one for the "McD has a great regular season record" book. 🙄
