I guess McCain is ok, he apparently limped off the field near the end of the Jets game on a ST play..

Well maybe not for sure..

The Dolphins will not release their first injury report of the week until Wednesday, so it is unclear if any other players were held out for a portion of Tuesday’s session.

Many of America's Dolphins fans will need to go to sports bar to see Dolphins-Bills game Sat. CBS sending it to only 8%. Maps posted Wed.

Wow

Barry Jackson ‏@flasportsbuzz 40s40 seconds ago
... It's a CBS single-header Saturday, which lowers percentages. Many getting Indy-Oakland late. Gumbel, Trent Green on Dolphins-Bills.

Lippett looks thirsty man

 

[AL R]

LeSean McCoy (knee) is practicing in full for Week 16.
It's news that McCoy has a knee issue, but it's not serious enough to cost him any practice reps. On par with David Johnson, Le'Veon Bell and Ezekiel Elliott over the past month, McCoy could be a league-winner against the Dolphins on Saturday.

Ya. Here on LI we're gonna get that awesome Jets @ Pats barn burner... The NFL really needs to do something with Google (or whoever) so that fans can pay to stream games. The fact that I have to either get DirecTV or go to a sports bar for the next 2 weeks is horse ****.

We need to make Taylor beat us. I don't care how hypothetically frustrating it will be to watch Tyrod complete deep passes, it'll be even worse watching McCoy tear us up.

8 in the box every time.

So will I be able to stream the game with the Sunday Ticket app? Last week was technically Thursday night football but these are all local stations

"They have won 8 of the last 9. That speaks volumes right there," Bills coach Rex Ryan said.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 4m4 minutes ago
"They got healthy on the offensive line. If you can run the ball and protect your quarterback that's where it all starts," Rex Ryan said.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 3m3 minutes ago
"They are No. 1 in the NFL on third down. It's an impressive group of pass rushers with Suh and Wake and the guys," Rex Ryan on Dolphins.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 3m3 minutes ago
"Matt Moore is a guy that's been in the league a long time. He's had successes. He's had success against me," Rex Ryan said.

Adam Beasley ‏@AdamHBeasley 3m3 minutes ago
Rex Ryan on Matt Moore: "He might actually throw the deep ball better than Tannehill."

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 3m3 minutes ago
"He may actually throw the deep ball better than [Ryan] Tannehill does. I don't know if he's as athletic," Rex Ryan on Matt Moore.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 3m3 minutes ago
"He's got vision. He's big, he runs hard....We'll make a better account of ourselves this time out," Bills coach Rex Ryan on Jay Ajayi.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 1m1 minute ago
"He's got phenomenal hands, he's a great route runner. he's physical and attacks the ball. He's got instincts," Rex Ryan on Jarvis Landry.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 1m1 minute ago
"There is a reason why he's got the numbers he has," Rex Ryan on Jarvis Landry.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 39s40 seconds ago
"The corners are playing really well. I don't know if there's any doubt about that," Bills coach Rex Ryan said.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 6s7 seconds ago
"I really liked him. He's tough, small. He's got what you look for. He's got great ball skills," Ryan on Baccari Rambo, who played for him

Going to be a totally different game this time around based on just who is and is not playing..Taylor will use his legs against us Like CK did and will try and beat us deep at least a few times.

Ah yes, what I’m telling you is the Dolphins on Saturday will be without Tannehill, Jones, and Pouncey -- all of whom played the first game against Buffalo. And the Bills will have Watkins, Woods, Lawson, and Dareus -- none of whom played the first game against Miami.

Yes, that is cause for concern.

Can't have another slow start like with the Jets.

 

[AL R]

Was just about to say the same thing.. we can't keep doing this. Whats crazy is how opposite the second half's have been.. so what does that mean we make good adjustments but don't game plan well going in? One of these games we need to pounce early on someone. If we can do that this game it might force Taylor into some mistakes and limit McCoy a little.

I completely disagree. 8 in the box makes you more susceptible to the long TD. We need to continue to bend and not break and make a few plays on third down and get turnovers. We can't give up huge plays for TDs. Let McCoy get his yards, like Bilal Powell did. This defense isn't can't afford to get burnt multiple times with 8 guys in the box. Get them to third down as much as possible and try to get after the QB

 

[PhinFan1968]

Can we get some guarantees of a beatdown from the Jills...ya know...like Leodis a year or so ago...before Lamar broke his ankles.

I like those.

If we need to adjust we can adjust, but our young corners are hot and playing really well right now. I'd start the game 8 in the box with a spy on Tyrod and single coverage on the outside with one safety back to help deep. Stuff the run and keep this prick in the pocket.

That was a quote of insomnia411 game plan just to be clear.. I'm not sure what defense game plan VJ attempts to deploy this week. McCoy will be a mismatch either way against the LB's. If I had to guess it would be similar to the Jets game plan.
