This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
I think we match-up pretty well and should stomp on their coitusback (btw Bradford is becoming a bit of a rock chucking enigma at this point).
But yea, we have to play sound football. No turnovers. Eat some clock. Snack on some chunk yards. Bite the bullet. Grab some turnovers. And eat their cookies!
Sorry to go over your head with my fancy geography ruse.
Phoenix is not only a mythological whirlybird its a city in Arizona where the "Arizona" Cardinals play. But of course the franchise should be renamed the Arizona Roadrunners or maybe the Phoenix Arizonians.
Yeah thanks. That was very informative. Especially for a guy (me) that went to high school in Phoenix.
I guess they didn't like the sound of Glendale Cardinals but since Cardinals is really more fitting for Chicago (state bird) and they didn't bother to change it when they moved to STL....
Maybe the Glendale Gila Monsters would have been more fitting.
We need to play errorless ball. We need to protect "The Kid" from Chris Long and Company. If we can keep down the sacks, run the ball effectively and do some play action...we will out score the Rams.

No, they'll beat the Jets. Hopefully 54-0. Sanchez will throw 4 INTs, Rex will cry on TV, and Cromartie will find out he's the dad of his 18th child.
Rams are a very solid team, this is not the Rams of last season at all. In this game I expect a very hard hitting, low scoring affair. The outcome will hinge on which team is able to play mistake free. The heat of Joe Robbie Stadium(yes) will get to the Rams allowing for a late quarter drive to the victory!
Without their best WR and our ability to shut down the even the best running games....(Jackson's best game 76 yards vs AZ) We are going to force them to try and beat us with the passing game...
Although injured, our secondary is improving.
Rams do have a good pass rush but if you look at the O-lines they faced...
L-Detroit allowed 9 sacks total, 1 allowed vs Rams, gave up 3 ints.
W-Redskins 12 sacks total, 1 vs Rams, 1 int
L-Bears 19 sacks, 2 vs Rams, 1 int
W-Seahawks 10 sacks, 2 vs Rams, 3 ints
W-Cardinals allowed 25 sacks, 9 vs Rams, 0 ints
(Miami had 8 sacks vs AZ)
I believe we matchup well in all categories. Just like other weeks, we win the T/O battle and we win.
Miami 31
Rams 9
Rams haven't won a game in Miami since 1976
Rams 3rd worst in protecting the QB. Sam....meet Cameron!
Cam Wakes 42 QB disruptions lead all defensive players, and against the Rams he’ll get to feast on Barry Richardson, who’s matched his Dolphin counterpart’s 18 allowed pressures, though he’s graded much worse in pass protection at -8.1.
This could get ugly for Bradford and the Rams if they can’t contain arguably the most fearsome pass rusher in the NFL today.

Bradford has been growing accustomed to running for his life behind that Rams line...so this will be no different!
On passes that are in the air for 5 yards or less, including passes behind the line of scrimmage, Sam Bradford has an Accuracy Percentage of just 76.7%, which is nearly 10% lower than the league average.
Pro Football Focus gives Bradford an adjusted accuracy rating of 69.6 percent on his throws under pressure.
Tannehill has a league-high 84.6% Accuracy Percentage under pressure.
