Great win, great comeback...but it was the Bills...another 4-7 team.
Now we need to build upon this game and beat SD. I think turning the corner is beating a very good team away, like the SD game next week.
For the first time this season I saw what Saban has been preaching by his teams performance. Specifically..."not about the result but about a process that ends is a consistent performance that yields results..."
By not reacting to the first half score, or any given play, the Dolphins stayed "in the game". They played to the next play, although not perfectly, it did enable a methodical process that yielded the desired outcome.
In short, I believe the Saban Process proved out in the end over the Bills because it was methodical, consistent, and did not over react to the current situation.
The Bills lost because they had no Process to follow while leading by 21 points. They went ultra conservative on both sides of the ball.
I hope this is what SABAN is preaching about.
I think we do have a chance vs SD, a good one if we execute and everyone comes in healthy, and the players BEHAVE they same way. Mistakes are going to happen but by following SABAN's process (read BEHAVIOR), these players can preservere.
I am becoming a believer in this whole process thing.
