The Miami Dolphins are preparing to face the Buffalo Bills in their next season outing on Thursday (September 18). The scales between the two teams are incredibly unbalanced at the moment, as the Bills have lost both of their previous two games this season, and the Dolphins have managed to lose both. Miami has a difficult task ahead of it as it prepares to face one of the finest quarterbacks in the league- the Bills’ Josh Allen.

Tua Tagovailoa praises Josh Allen

Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was all praises for his Bills counterpart by discussing the threat he poses to their plans.

“ Tua Tagovailoa on Josh Allen: "He's top tier... Definitely different skillset for me, I can't do half of what he does when it comes to running the ball and with how he can just chuck a ball down the field." (@MiamiDolphins) #PhinsUp,” an account posted on social media.

"He's top tier," Tagovailoa told reporters in the video. "If it's not with his arm it's with his legs. That dude can do literally anything he wants. Definitely different skillset for me, I can't do half of what he does when it comes to running the ball and with how he can just chuck a ball down the field and the arm strength that he has. He's supreme when it comes to that."

As of now, Allen holds a record of being unbeatable in games against the Dolphins since the 2022 season, as reported by Newsweek. He has counted three-plus touchdowns nine out of the 15 times he has played against Miami.

The internet reacts

Fans took to social media to share their reactions to Tagovailoa’s comments.

“Then maybe he should make half of what he does,” a fan wrote.

“Miami always play the Bills very tough. @BuffaloBills need to redouble their planning for Thursday. Fins have good coach and lots of weapons. It will be a tough game,” a fan expressed.

“Correct but u know what u can do. Get your second victory against him,” a fan shared.

“and you gonna play him in prime time whole nation watching,” a fan commented.
