The Game Against The Bills - Worst MD Performance Since 7-62 in Jax

[Fin-Loco]

What do you think Loco they ask. Well, to the amazement of many of Loco's friends, my tv does not have a 9 iron sticking out of it while floating down the canal on fire. Loco simply switched channels mid-third quarter to stop the anger demons. This one was a Rembrandt's Starry Night of badness. Scorsesse's Godfather of terrible. This game was akin to having Weird AL's Christmas At Ground Zero set to loop and the control knobs being taken away and the door welded closed with us inside. It was horrible.

I thought I should just start a thread where we can all go to vent about that game in one place. We all don't want to surf through 59 different threads of misery so let's bring it all here and let's be creative about it. Maybe we can even have some FH award for most creative sob story about that specific game.

Bring it here and let's all at least laugh at how horrid we were while hoping for improvement.

It was not the worst performance since Jacksonville, not even close.

Have we already forgotten the 2019 season? 0-43 vs the Ravens and 10-59 vs the Pats.

Too many of those type scores. Guess when you are a non playoff team year after year then you going to get hammered sometimes. At home as well yesterday.

This last game very much had the same feel for the first few games of Flo's HC career... not a good sign.

 

[Adam Strange]

There were plenty of laughably bad performances in 2007 as well. But the difference is that this team was supposed to be very good.

Yesterday was a very disappointing performance on several levels for a multitude or reasons.

At least for the time being -- the loss totally sank our battleship and deflated our balloon!

We looked like a division 2 school trying to play with Alabama yesterday. Sad performance, but I am not throwing in the white towel. Like Apollo Creed in Rocky IV, I will see this all the way to the end, even if I'm left twitching on the canvas at the end of the season.

Yes, it was one game. However, it was a horrific game.

Just wanted to correct you, 0-43 game was against the Patriots and 10-59 was against the Ravens

I don't feel it solely came down to the score on this one. We hit a whole new level from an ineptness standpoint...

Those were bad, but for me, expectations were low for both games early on in the year. It was after a scorch earth offseason where it was clear the owner wanted to tank and the GM was trading talent for picks.

2021, the QB of the future, more weapons, more draft picks on both sides of the ball, a healthy Jones and Howard etc... this was not expected for me.

A loss I was expecting, but not a 0-35 beatdown where the Bills went easy on us or it could of been higher IMO.

Its not just the score, its expectations.

If you're expecting to be bad, yeah the blowout hurts and maybe its by more than it should be, but you accept that its a talent thing and move on.

This year we are supposed to compete with teams like that, win or lose, we shouldn't be getting curb stomped.

I've been a Dolphins fan for 30 years and I've never seen the "MD" abbreviation until this season. It keeps throwing me off.

That's all I have to contribute here.

Difference was that team had obviously punted on the season by trading their only viable OL and a starting wide receiver right before the season started, and it was the first two games of a coaching regime where no players had any idea at all what they were supposed to be doing on the field. This team right now, I mean you could add up the salaries of our two starting corners and they'd be making as money as the guys who were on the field for us in those games combined. That team had a line staffed with street free agents who hadn't ever played together. This team's offensive line is the one we drafted and developed for several years and the one we CHOSE to go into the season with when the expectation of winning was on us. That season we had a veteran QB who we brought in just because hey, veteran, we don't really care anyway, and a young guy we had already abandoned our investment on by trading our only viable linemen and a starting receiver right before week one. This year, we've got the guy we've CHOSEN to build around, the one we tanked in 2019 for, only our rebuild around his has been really horrible executed.

Yeah, I mean the stats and the numbers are obviously worse in 2019. But expectations and circumstances change things.
