    At this point it's not a negative outlook. It's literally just ignoring reality and making **** up.

    There are still people arguing Mac Jones would do as well as Tua in this offense. Get used to the ridiculousness. hitman8 (who I know you really like lol) had an entire thread going on about it lol.

    They pretty much have the same defense as they had last year when we played them.

    Now, I'm not saying that the Dolphins will win (In fact I have Miami losing mainly because it's in Baltimore), but ignoring all facts just doesn't seem prudent to me.

    Yeah, that's not happening. We'll make the playoffs. And lose in the first round on the road to a good team.

    Let me understand something, this team that is 6-3, with those 3 losses coming against both of the Super Bowl teams from last season and the AFCCG contender, who statistically has the best QB in the league, is scoring the most points of anyone in the league, has the best WR in the league, the best rushing offense in the league, and a defense that by all accounts is playing really well over the last 3 weeks, is going to go 4-4 after the BYE?

    Oh yeah, this team also has the best home record over the last few seasons.

    So which 4 of these games do you have us losing?

    Raiders
    @Jets
    @Redskins
    Titans
    Jets
    Cowboys
    @Ravens
    Bills

    lol...It's just so absurd. Some of these people have to be trolls. I've never seen a fan of a team just blatantly make so much stuff up about the team they root for.

    Last 3 are losses for sure. Probably lose to jets at home or titans since the are nationally televised games.

    16-2 at home in the last 18 games and you think we lose 3 or 4 of the next 5?

    Bills, Ravens, Cowboys for sure. That would be 11-6, which is possible. But we also might drop one to the Jets.

    The Bills? Serious question, do you watch any other games at all? What in their last 3 games were the Bills have lost to the Jags and squeaked by the Bucs (on a Thursday at home) and sneaked past the Giants and been bailed out by no calls in both games makes you think they are going 6-3 against their upcoming schedule?

    He's got to be joking at this point. I mean, he thinks Sam Powell is better than Tua...lmao



    I wouldn't be surprised if the Bills went 3-6 over their last 9 what with how they've been playing.

    My prediction for their Losses- @Bengals,@Eagles, Jets, Dallas, @DOLPHINS, and @KC.

    The Bills are a mentally tough team that can't be counted out that easily. I wouldn't be surprised to see them beat the Bengals.

    The Bills have looked horrible against poor teams, even at home. They have lost DaQuan, Milano and White from their defence and teams have finally figured out to double Diggs and let them try and beat you with someone else.

    Meanwhile the Dolphins have been blowing out bad teams and have lost on the road to both Super Bowl teams from last season in what were close games where the Dolphins did as much as their opponents did to lose the game. The mistakes are correctable, the team and coach are still young and learning yet the sky is falling while the Bills are going to win the division according to some.

    Just wish people would step back from the ledge and look at how things actually stand. Yes I was pissed off at half time this week but the 2nd half was very, very encouraging especially from the defence.

    Mentally tough team that has fallen short every year while having Mr January as QB?

    I’ll be very surprised if they beat the Bengals tonight and if they finish better than 10-7.

    The Bills are not a mentally tough team and blame everything on the elements when they lose. They got smoked at home in the playoffs by the Bengals last year and blamed it on the snow. They blamed the heat in Miami. They are far from mentally tough.

    The Bills have their problems. I'd rather have their problems and gone deep into the playoffs than ours the last few seasons.

    Our best hope of winning the division is if the Bills continue to lose. But we've been in this position before and we never seem to get that lucky.

    The only reason they did better than Miami last year was because Tua got hurt. We lost to the Bills, in their house, in the playoffs by 3 points even though Skylar Thompson was the QB. The previous year the Bills were better and lost in OT to KC.

    Wait...does that mean they can't beat good teams? lol

    Also, in 4 of 8 post season games Josh has been bad. In the other 4 he had one average game and 3 elite games. I truly believe their window closed last year. In 8 games this year Josh has posted a 90 and under rating 4 times. For all the talk about Miami beating only bad teams they've beaten the Raiders, Commanders, Bucs, and Giants for 4 of their 5 wins. For some reason that's overlooked, however.

    While we're on the subject, Tua is proving to be durable. Health was a major concern right? He looks no more fragile than any other starting QB out there. In fact other QBs have suffered worse injuries than Tua. It's looking more and more like yet another box to check off the list of potential reasons he might not be a franchise QB.

    These are NOT the same buffalo bills that you all are beating the drum over. Since Daboll’s departure to the Giants, Allen’s performance has steadily declined.

    Remember 3 weeks ago when the Jets had the Eagles on the ropes? I said I didn’t want the Eagles to lose to the Jets. Good teams RARELY lose 2 in a row. The Jets won and the following week, the Eagles (with the help of some extremely questionable officiating) redeemed themselves by NOT losing 2 in a row.

    Last week, the Chiefs lost to the Broncos. Again, GOOD teams rarely lose 2 in a row. Statistically, we had no passing yards, more rushing yards, more ToP and offensively tied the Chiefs. They won the game on a questionable strip returned for TD. Again, good teams rarely lose 2 in a row.

    The Dolphins this season…have NOT lost 2 in a row. The Dolphins lost a ROAD game against the AFC Championship contenders from last year.

    They lost a ROAD game against the defending NFC Champions.

    They lost a ROAD game against the reigning Super Bowl Champions.

    NEWSFLASH…EVERYONE had the Dolphins losing those 3 games in the preseason predictions…EVERYONE!!!!!

    What NO ONE had in their preseason predictions was the Dolphins beating the breaks off of everyone else we played.

    For those of you in the “sky is falling camp”, anecdote if you’ll indulge me. The 2007 season. The New England Patriots were threatening the Dolphins undefeated season. I had a friend in Iraq who placed a $1000 bet on the Giants to beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Myron was just SURE the Giants would win, despite Eli’s poor performance against the Patriots only a few weeks earlier. Eli wasn’t going to make the same mistakes twice.

    I would argue Tua is a much better quarterback than Eli was.

    Autism is some gen z talking point.. and no one who uses it knows what it is, they just use it to insult people. They claim former and current presidents, Messi, Mcdaniels has autism..

    If youre going to argue something, do better than DOH AUTISM.

    If we beat the teams we're supposed to beat (Raiders, Jets, Skins, Titans) that's 10 wins and enough to make the playoffs. Unless the Jets or Bills get hot, that could also be enough to take the division. So far, we've beaten every team we were supposed to beat and I don't see that trend changing.

    The teams we should struggle against are @Jets, Cowboys, @Ravens, Bills. I think any one of those games gives us the division, and a few wins moves us closer to home field advantage. We certainly don't have to win all four and I'd guess both away games are losses. I do think the Bills are a must win because we'd probably play them the following week either way, and I don't like our chances going to Buffalo again in the playoffs. I do think we're the better team but they have the experience and know how to play us.

    Of our three losses, the Bills donkey-stomped us in Buffalo. Philly won convincingly but I'm not going to talk about their home field advantage...I'll just say it was there in force and it didn't feel like a fair game.

    The Chiefs won by 7 and we shut them out the 2nd half, so I'm feeling good about a rematch there as well. I mean, that was the 1st two quarters all year our starting defense played together...not sweating that. The only team I truly fear is Buffalo in Buffalo.

    I try not to be but we've been in a position of needing other teams to lose before and it never goes well. I'd rather they actually dominate. It's hard but not impossible. The Bills have done it (except they failed in the playoffs but at least got that far), the Chiefs have done it, the Bengals have done it. Just one season. No dynasty necessary, just a dominating season.

    I'd settle for a SB win no matter how bad the team looks. Not sure you know this but when Eli won those SBs his teams had the 14th best offense and 17th best defense (in 2007), and the 9th best offense and 25th best defense (in 2011). Personally, I'd trade all dominating seasons that don't end in SBs for even one of those years (and that helmet catch was AMAZING!.. so was defeating Brady lol).
