Should be interesting.

I want to favor the Dolphins because Allen is still dealing with a new cast of receivers and the Bills relied heavily on their running game to get points (incl. Allen). The Cards have one of the worst run defenses in the NFL, so this is not a surprise and got them back in the game. Milano (Bills) is also out which helps screw over the run offense for Miami which has gotten weaker given Williams' departure.

Should be a close game by all aspects... definition of a toss up... horrible to bet on this if that's your thing.

Miami needs the win more than the Bills, imo. they are at home, the sports cars can still fly because it's summer, Tua has only beat the Bills once in 7 tries and the Jags did Jags things last week to lose so it wasn't a Dolphins usual early season "sexy" win.
Bills struggled early but they handled business once they got rolling. Josh Allen appears to be the new Cam Newton but he's a better and more consistent passer. That Superman shit is unbelievably dumb at times though. No reason for him to be hurdling people at the goal line on 2nd down and with the lead. I know it's heat of the moment but he can't take such a huge risk, imo. But, I think all the talk of the Bills WR drop-off is pretty much B.S. Gonna miss Diggs a little but Coleman looks pretty damn good and they will be fine. I think the Bills will go in to Miami and beat the Dolphins again.

So last year the two matchups had a Bills blowout win and a really sloppy game that the Bills pulled out and won as well. Bills pass offense destroyed the Cardinals last week but the Cardinals might have the worst pass defense in football. Jaguars really shut down the Dolphins run game and if it wasnt for Hills big play and the Jags giving the game away the Dolphins would be in bad shape right now.

Im thinking Bills by 7

Should be a great game, thanks for starting the thread - I’m picking the Fins to win. The Bills secondary will need to play a strong game going up against Tyreek and Waddle. Mostert is out and Achane has been limited in practice so the Fins run game is a question. I still have a lot of questions about the Bills receiving unit - Allen spread the ball around well last week but the Cards secondary is awful, the Fins have a much better D. The Fins are a good home team. Could go either way but I’ll take the Fins in a close one.

I'm picking the Dolphins because I'm benching Tua this week in my fantasy league.

I assume Tyreek is taking an Uber.

De’Von Achane (ankle, questionable) is active for Week 2 against the Bills.

De’Von Achane (ankle, questionable) is active for Week 2 against the Bills.

With the way his career is starting he should consider the name De'Von Aching

 

[molsaniceman]

Bills declared CB Taron Johnson, EDGE Joe Andreessen, EDGE Dawuane Smoot, EDGE Javon Solomon, LB Edefuan Ulofoshio and OT Ryan Van Demark inactive for Week 2 against the Dolphins.
It’s a quiet list for the Bills, who thankfully lost their Week 2 injury drama when Josh Allen was proclaimed good to go on Monday. Johnson’s absence could definitely be felt in Miami, however.

 

[molsaniceman]

After some early-week intrigue and talk of a potential game-time decision, Achane never seemed particularly close to sitting. That’s great news for a Dolphins team missing Raheem Mostert (chest), and even better news for fantasy managers who took the Achane plunge on the Round 2/3 borderline. There is definitely some increased risk of Achane not finishing tonight’s contest, but if you drafted Achane, we never heard a good reason to bench him this week. Joining Mostert on the shelf are CB Ethan Bonner, EDGE Mohamed Kamara, C Andrew Meyer, LB Channing Tindall and WR Malik Washington.

How the hell is Subway still in business?

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Did Joe Dirt just say "That's so cool!" prior to the Dolphins running out of the tunnel?

 

[ducky]

Is it fair to say that the new kickoff rule is a complete failure yet?

 

[Dude]

Bill have won 11 of last 12, but who knows?

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Jesus Tua..... you talk about how you had to overcome adversity.... how the white man kept you down, how Harris will fix the economy.... then you shame the only white corner or offensive lineman on you team.

Does none of that and tries to draw attention... what a jackass.
