Tua is a good boy who always does his homework and helps little old ladies cross the street and this is how he gets treated. Says a lot about the people ITT.

I think everyone outside of a small subset of Bills true believers were forced to admit that one.

I mean Cam did start out pretty well last year though? He just almost immediately got covid / hurt and proceeded to look like dogshit. Opening two games were pretty optimistic.

Yeah using him with their power run game was legitimately scary until he broke down. It's why I didn't buy any of the talk about them drafting Mac. I thought they had something there and were gonna pursue a Ravens style offense.

I think the Dolphins can work around the Bills d-line with quick passes and play action.

I do not think they can possibly keep pace with their scoring though. As long as Allen is still in the psycho-mode he was in during the playoffs last year the Bills D just needs to not be a total disaster.

Back in 2010 my gf (now wife) got us really good tickets to the Jets game on MNF for my birthday. Well we lost, and a couple weeks later she surprised me with tickets again (this time against the Steelers) because she wanted me to see the Dolphins win. These were, very understandably, much worse seats because money was tight back then.

So I tell one of my coworkers that I'm going to the game on Sunday and he says he'll be there too because one of his vendors is from Pittsburgh and they got a skybox at the game and invited him, so we made plans to meet up at halftime. We get to the game and we're way up in the nosebleeds, but the Dolphins jump out to an early lead and things are looking good. At halftime I give my buddy a call and we meet up at the concessions. He tells me there's plenty of room in the skybox and invites me and my gf to come by.

I go and tell my gf the ~good news~ and she stares into my soul and says "what's wrong with the seats I got us?" Now on one hand I'm clearly loving up here. But on the other hand, I've never been to a skybox before and the Dolphins are winning so I can't pass up this opportunity.

We get there and of course the Steelers start mounting a comeback. They end up down 2 on the goal line late in the 4th. Then this happens:

The refs gently caress up what is a clear fumble and recovery, the Steelers get the TD, everyone in the skybox is celebrating and high fiving, my gf is staring daggers into me, and I just wanted to crawl into a hole and die.

One other quick story: my friend's wife went all out for him on his 40th birthday and got him first row lower bowl seats plus a limo to the game. It ended up being the Tebow Appreciation Night game.

Driving down to my dad's to watch the game. Last time I did this we lost 35-0 and Tua had his ribs smashed into dust so, hoping for a better outcome here.

What I like about this new offence is the fact that we're getting random bullshit big plays.

It's still not great and Tua looks bad, but that one part is nice

Tua looks great, the line looks like poo poo

I think the Pats are going to beat most the teams that they can run on. The Dolphins defensive front is really really good.

Okay but that post DID get me to check the one true advanced metric, Trent Dilfer's QBR. Guess the Patriots offense WAS worse than the Cowboys's!



(Allen is 2nd behind Mahomes, Tua is 5th!)

That stat just loving loves Tua for some reason. The explanation I always saw last year was that he's really good at avoiding sacks, which he did avoid a few, but he also took a few due to holding on the ball for too long.

Any word on Terron Armstead’s availability?

I haven't seen any updates on him, Jackson, or Little.

The only news on Jackson was that it was an ankle injury. Little went back in the game so I guess he's ok but he sucks so who cares.

I definitely agree that decision making is the most fixable of Tua's problems. I don't why it is but he plays safe smart football for 90% of the game and then the other 10% it's the keystone cops out there.

Can't belive this line is actually holding up so far. Tua looks great with no pressure in his face.
