5 of the Dolphins 8 remaining games are against teams with losing records. But their last three are against the teams with winning records. They have a chance over the next five weeks to set themselves up nicely but the schedule is setup for them to potentially back into the playoffs on a downward slide.

We'll see.

Yeah, there are VERY few teams that wouldn't take Josh Allen over their guy with zero hesitation. The dude is elite.

I will always say that the Bills completely fuged up not trading for CMC. Their running game works sometimes when the D is fooled. The RBs are not really big safety valves. I think Allen would flourish with CMC because he is always trying for the huge play and CMC is a huge play waiting to happen even on dump offs. Gabe Davis is fine but until the last couple games with Kincaid it was still always Diggs that Allen relied on for big plays. CMC would have kept the Ds more honest and given Allen a serious threat so that he’d force a 20-30 yard pass on 3rd and 2 way less.

Honestly, they really did. They really were in that "one piece away" type scenario.

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
