Game Day – Dolphins @ Bills

header

(Header from CBS Sports)

The Bills kicked our ass at the first meeting in Miami earlier this season.   A lot has changed since then.  The Dolphins need to go to Buffalo with revenge on their minds and do some ass kicking of their own.  The Bills are on a 2 game losing streak and it needs to be 3 at the end of the game.  Both teams are 3-4 on the season but we still haven’t won a division game whereas the Bills are 1-1 in the division, and we all know where that one win came from.  It’s payback time!

We need to win this game or any wildcard thoughts are done.  We need to start fast and not let up, win the game instead of waiting for the Bills to lose it.

I like Campbell so far, we definitely needed some energy.  That’s only going to go so far as last week showed but I give him a break on that.   He took over mid season and the team responded with two solid wins.  The Cheaters are a tough team to beat with everything going well and it didn’t go well last week.

We need the run game to win if you ask me.  I think Tanny is a good QB, not a great QB, at least right now. There’s definitely worse out there.  He’s too inaccurate on the deep throws for us to be able win with just him throwing the ball.   He needs more time than the OL is giving him is at least part of the issue.  Sometimes he looks good and sometimes he doesn’t. Just like the rest of the team.  Except for Landry.  He is awesome.

Ok, my rambling is done.  Most of this is alcohol induced.

Let’s Go Dolphins!!!

    1st—-My grandson wakes up and asks when the pulled pork is gonna be done.So I ask him if he is hungry and he says yes. So I start to make him some cereal and then goes back to sleep without eating anything. Another 7-8 hours on low heat.Sometimes, I like to torture them with the aroma throughout the house for long periods. This whole pulled pork meal is almost 24 hours prepping and cooking.

    Yes it is!
    I think the Pats loss wont affect his bid to be our permanent HC but lose to teams like the Bills and we will be calling Wisenhut at seasons end

  5. ocalahowie's avatar ocalahowie says:

    We have no wake so how do we get to Tyrod.
    Do something we really havent seen this year
    REEESHAD on the safety BLITZ
    Gotta do it and more than once

    This is the 1st game of the season that will not be on regular TV
    The least the Jags can do is win.
    I will be keeping my eye on that one

    Yeah the cable companies offer you a pretty good deal with the “Triple Bundle” that combines cable, internet and phone……but when it goes out it’s like you are in the stone age.

    I was blacked out when I woke up yesterday and first they promised back by two, then by nine and then I got the chilling “check back in 24 hours.” Was thinking I’d be catching the Phins at a sports bar for the first time in many a year. Thank Jahn I woke up today back in the tech age.

    Thanks Herd.

    Go Dolphins, big game today we need our guys to buck up and ball out.

  10. Randy's avatar Randy says:

    Howie,
    I’d like to see us bring some A gap pressure with OV and others. OV just isn’t getting much pressure from the edge, and he was very effective blitzing thru the A gaps in the past. We have to maintain the edges against this QB…force him to stay in the pocket and not use his mobility.
    ***
    Of course, this all hinges on our ability to stop the run first.

  11. stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    Awesome job Herd……..and one of the best closing lines of a post ever.

    “Most of this is alcohol induced.”

    Good pre game post Herd… Tanny needs to be using his legs today as well.. We Need This Game !!!! Go Phins….

      Toba — great shots put out yesterday.

      Pretty cool that you caught the team bus.

      • manitobafinfan's avatar manitobafinfan says:

        thanx Stanger.. they actually closed the road right in front of the Shuttle that was taking us to game, and both buses quickly turned in with police escort.. it was cool.. Very non descript back entrance to that stadium.. only reason i knew where we were was a day prior our cabbie pointed it out to us..

    • herdfan's avatar herdfan says:

      lol, I thought about that, Tanny running more. I thought everyone would be at me for wanting to get him killed. Hey, I even think they should throw in a wild cat with him from time to time. He was a WR and can run so take advantage of that. And I’m saying this with no alcohol involved. Unless there’s lingering effects! 😉

        Agreed, and that’s what we need too is guys from the bigger conferences that have played big time ball.

  20. manitobafinfan's avatar manitobafinfan says:

    Herd : great job putting up the pics thank you.. if Tanny running can be done safely and semi unexpected it can be very effective.. if he is straight up just running then yeah he could get hurt.. not what any of us want at this point (even Son is Probably kidding)

  34. steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

    I agree with those that don’t expect Ajayi to make an impact today. It’s the Dolphins way, bitch about the lack of talent, then when you do get the talent don’t play them.

  35. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    The NFLN is doing a piece on Peyton Manning and saying he changed the game. Uhhh… no! Marino changed the game and opened up a new passing era. Marino did it when QBs weren’t protected and DBs could hang on WRs.

    • stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

      I’ll go with Dan Fouts changed the game. Marino just took what he did a step further.

      • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

        Yeah it started with Air Coryell and Fouts then Marino blew the doors open. Fouts had a great running game with Muncie and Brooks. Marino was the offense.

    • steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

      He did change the game. When the officials let the cheats hold the Colts receivers all day long, all the way down the field, he bitched, which brought us to the currently enforced illegal contact rule.

  36. steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

    We need Rickey Williams today 😉

  37. steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

    Tannehill should love the fact that Kyle Williams is inactive today.

  38. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    Commit to the running game and let Miller do his thing. He’s been finding daylight more often in recent times. We need explosive plays from Miller. It will open other things up.

    • steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

      You can’t just say do this or do that, you have to do what they give you. I know what you mean though, we can’t abandon the run today.

      • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

        You have to run even against 8 in the box. If you don’t you feed into their game plan of putting us in 3rd and long out of shotgun and they pin their ears back and wreck the game.

  39. steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

    I expect to see Suh on the outside today, on 3rd downs, in Wake’s spot.

  40. steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

    Why is Carolina undefeated? Because they’ve let Cam change the play at the LOS. RT needs to be able to do that.

  41. Randy's avatar Randy says:

    How do we know that Tannehill doesn’t have the go ahead to change plays, and he simply isn’t able to?

    • manitobafinfan's avatar manitobafinfan says:

      Thus the ” he needs to be able to” whether it is team not allowing or him not being able to. It needs to cahnge

    • The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

      Well he should be allowed to
      an if he fails – we know more abut his limitations
      we need to see the results if he is given that chance

  42. Wyoming85's avatar wyoming85 says:

    Maybe Ajayi believes in the curse too?

    Andrew Abramson ‏@AbramsonPBP 1m1 minute ago
    Jay Ajayi is wearing No. 23. He wore 33 in preseason

  43. Wyoming85's avatar wyoming85 says:

    Adam Beasley ‏@AdamHBeasley 49s49 seconds ago
    So @EReed790 just asked who would lead the hype huddle with Cameron Wake out. We just got the answer: Mike Pouncey.

  44. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    From what I remember, RT gets to the line with a pass or run play with obvious alterations based on what he sees. The entire offense has to get it rolling again. Before the Pats game they were playing lights out. I know against two bad teams but still we blew those teams out. Now go win a tough game on the road in BUF in a must win game.

    • BoulderPhinfan's avatar BoulderPhinfan says:

      agreed. If we think we’re anything this year. If this team is different than the one from earlier this year then we have to win this game today.

  45. Randy's avatar Randy says:

    toba
    I just want to see him hit the throws that are there and not check down. He leaves a lot of big plays on the field in favor of a high percentage short pass too often. There are plays there to be had.

    • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

      Did you watch the two games prior to the Pats game? People act like it never happened and Tanny has been awful all year. Come on! Give credit where credit is do. Every loss has been a team loss where lots of players didn’t get it done. We have to play complimentary football. If we keep asking RT to be the guy to carry us what kind of team are we?

    • manitobafinfan's avatar manitobafinfan says:

      Absolutley. And as Tim said he did against what ibwould refer to as inferior teams. Today will be the first true Litmus test of this team since Dan has taken over. Lets light it up !!!!

    I fully expect to see the following today;

    The Bills running for big chunks behind that big bully Incognito.
    Tyrod running for more than 40 yards and 4 first downs & a TD
    Carpenter being prefect and putting up 9
    Tannehill to throw 2 picks and be sacked 8 times
    The dolphins losing in an embarrassing fashion.

        fools gold, it was a malicious set up to suck in the oft abused despondent fans who had insulated themselves emotionally only to be duped again. LOGICALLY I fully expect the things I wrote above to happen. The scheme is the same. The players are the same. The coaching running the schemes and implementing the game play are much less experienced. Yeah, rah rah will get them riled up. They still have to play smart football and beat their matchups one on one physically. I just don’t see it.
