That Aud Smell Posted October 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 McCoy practicing today Will be a game time decision per his agent Mmmm. I dunno. With one of the dirtiest players in the NFL on the other side of the ball? If he plays, I foresee a weirdly rough tackle and a worsening of the condition.

TrueBlueGED Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 We can beat Miami without McCoy. I don't think we can best Seattle or the Pats without him. Rest him for the week. Seriously, didn't see see this last year with the hamstring? Let him get healthy dammit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Aud Smell Posted October 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 he has to catch him first interior linemen don't need to win a foot race in order to get in on the tackle of a running back. in any case, if mccoy has a bum hamstring, the chances are greater that he'll be caught. We can beat Miami without McCoy. I don't think we can best Seattle or the Pats without him. Rest him for the week. Seriously, didn't see see this last year with the hamstring? Let him get healthy dammit. It doesn't make sense. Hopefully, they sit him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put Gillislee in his role & give him the Reggie "well, EJ can't be the only guy we dressed that doesn't play" Bush role if the game goes as planned. If the game is getting fubar'd, then bring in the cavalry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at the very least, have him available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they definitely can't afford to get behind with this strategy. But at the very least, have him available. I emphatically do not believe they can win in Miami being down this many skill players. If they do, I will be all in on this season regardless of what happens next week with the Patriots. If there was ever a game to win 9-6, it has to be this week. This is one of those weeks in a long season that a good team will find a way to win. Doesn't matter how ugly, just find a way. Special teams, field goals, sacks.. Find a way.

Brawndo Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Per Adam Schefter Mc Coy playing today but will have a limited number of reps. Woods out, Justin Hunter starts opposite Goodwin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they definitely can't afford to get behind with this strategy. But at the very least, have him available. Not to try and take away from McCoy's performances, but the Bills have averaged 3 yds before contact rushing with a incredibly high 4.63 yds. over the middle (both #1). While McCoy may be head and shoulders above the other RB's on the roster, even an average RB should have some success running the ball if the O-line is keeping people off him for the first 3 yds. I think that either Gillislee or Bush could have a successful day against the Dolphins 31st ranked rushing defense. I don't know how much risk there is in hurting the hamstring worse, but I imagine there has to be some.

I've seen him run right past gaping holes in the D to find tacklers. Edited October 23, 2016 by inkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Ugh, no woods.... Let's see how this works out... Zero WR depth.... If I was Miami, I'd stack the box and make Tyrod win a game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Why is this the year that our injury list is littered with all of our best players? It's not fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 McCoy is gonna play a lot more than we think. Shaq is gonna cause a sack fumble today. I still think it's probably a closer game than we want to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Ugh, no woods.... Let's see how this works out... Zero WR depth.... If I was Miami, I'd stack the box and make Tyrod win a game They likely will, but with Suh there and them having smaller DE's, we'll pull the guards and bounce it outside. They also lost their best DB in their pro-bowl safety, which could be huge for us McCoy is gonna play a lot more than we think. Shaq is gonna cause a sack fumble today. I still think it's probably a closer game than we want to see Agreed with the bold I think the Steelers, Texans and Vikings agree. Yup. Injuries happen, it's part of the NFL. It's why depth is so huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 First drive so far, last week's Phins O-line and Ajayi have shown up, which isn't good. And eff you Marcel Dareus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Need to get better pressure on Tannehill. Need to hold Ajayi to under six yards at least one single time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Ajayi looks good so far. That's bad news. At least we held them to a field goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 We gotta clean some things up, good to see them held to 3. Lets give our D some rest with a long drive of our own!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
