Well, today's another game. Your guess is a good as mine. The Eagles are a mixed bag--who knows what they bring to the field today. Same as the Dolphins, I guess. Will Ryan Tannehill be sacked, will he be able to throw accurately on short throws, are they going to do less shotgun plays and get behind the center to take the snaps (I sure we don't see a third week of bad snaps). Will the offensive line push and open holes for our running game? Lots of issues. While I'd like to be optimistic, I'll simply watch to see if there's improvement in any element of our game.
Kick off is at 1pm. I hope we can enjoy the game--a win would be nice.
I love Dan Campbell, but he is not head coach ready just yet.. First drive needed to establish the run no matter what... Then you put a guy with a bad hand to return kicks???? Then from the 1 you drop back to throw??? I don't get it... Hey and this is a novel Idea, cover the Eagles TE...

And thats why you don't throw from there, he is not that guy that can carry the team, or get you out of trouble...
Lazor's play calling is not good, IMO. Our inability is really showing in this game. There is no expectation that the Dolphins can win this one. The lack of talent on the O-line, weakness in the D-line and ineptitude in the secondary is overwhelming.

Maybe our luck is changing, been a long time since I remember that many breaks going our way in one game. Not a stellar performance by any means but I'll take it'
As I wrote in the OP, the "Eagles are a mixed bag" and they didn't take advantage of their early lead. The Dolphins were not good only a mere point better than the Eagles today at the end. The interception made the difference.
