Tua Tungo Vailoa is set to return for the Miami Dolphins this week.

We'll debate whether or not that's a good idea. And can Tua save the dolphin season?

Gentlemen, welcome into another installment of the show. We got new faces here. Obviously, Big Sarge joining us for the first time of Lockdown, Texas. Joe Marino joining us for the first time Locked on Bills. I know Bills fans. If we look at your comments section, Joe, they weren't happy the first couple of weeks when, you know, they're like, what's this show? Well, now Joe Marino's here to represent here on behalf of lockdown bills. Folks, I mean, Wild Week 7 across the entire NFL landscape, but we're going to focus on the AFC.

I want to start things off here, Joe Marino.

Obviously, the Buffalo Bills made things a little interesting down to the Tennessee Titans early on, found a way to come back and obviously win that game.

What's the vibe right now in Buffalo with everything going on?

Yeah, you mentioned they play with their food

a little bit against Tennessee Titans got out to a 10 to nothing deficit in the first 20 minutes,

and then they scored 34 unanswered over the last 40 minutes of the game. And it was really fun to see

the passing game come to life with Amari Cooper now in the mix. And they started to play him a lot more

and went to him a lot more.

He winds up catching a touchdown on his first catch with the bills after dropping the first

target that he has, winds up having four grabs for 66 yards.

And I think you just saw what that was able to mean for the passing offense.

Josh Allen goes for 355 yards, 258 yards passing in the second half and Keon

Coleman making big plays and Kincaid, the tight end down the field making plays and Kalil Shakir

from the slot. It felt like you saw Bill's passing offense that finally had a defined order of

who the dudes are, who they're supposed to get the ball to. And they really came to life and made some good adjustments there, got the five and two, three and a half game lead in the AFC East as we enter week eight. So things are good in Buffalo after Big Sarge. I don't know, come on, man, what are you doing here? We're trying to forget about the Texans in that Ravens disaster on Sunday night. So they bounced back after a couple of losses.

I would say the, you know, you gave Lockdown Titans. So was Tyler Rowaned a little bit of hope there in the first 10 minutes of the game where, you know, they're winning. And all of a sudden, maybe they were going to have conversations about, you know, Mason Rudolph being the resurgence over there in Tennessee. But, you know, that's another story for another day.
