WEEK 1 : Redskins vs Dolphins Prediction Thread

When did the Dolphins become the 85 Bears? I expect a close game, I don't think the Dolphins are nearly as good as some seem to think and the Skins aren't nearly as bad as people think.


Whoa whoa whoa. ... The Dolphins beat the 85 Bears! [emoji6]

And if they hadn't laid an egg against the Pats in the AFC title game, they would have beaten them twice.

Any given Sunday. I failed to mention that we have rookies at kicker and punter. Special teams disaster?

We don't have rookies at either position of kicker or punter.

I was speaking of the Dolphins. I have no idea what you are talking about or your obsession with below average candy.

I always forget that. They were not very good when they beat the Bears but than they really went on a roll.

YES!!!! Hot Tamales!!

Yeah, there are a bunch of question marks heading into this game that make it hard to call. Many unknowns.

-Will the staff find a way to run the ball effectively?
o will the TE blocking be adequate
o if the TE blocking isn't adequate will their be an adjustment in the run game?
o will the staff stick with the run if its not working early?

-Which Kirk do we get?
o With balanced playcalling will Kirk be able to be a productive passer without the turnovers?
o With pass heavy playcalling can Kirk carry the offense without turnovers?

-Will the rightside of the OL be liability, adequate or a strength?

Defensively what will Barry's scheme even look like?

-How will the secondary perform?
-Will Hall be ready to play?
-Which Dash do we get?
-Which Amerson do we get?

-Who will be the opposite rush linebacker across from Kerrigan and can they bring pressure? (Please let it be Jeffcoat in pass rush situations)

-Can our DL and rush package look as good on the field as they do on paper?

-Will the return units finally give us decent field position with the addition of Crowder?

I'm questioning myself because I'm wondering the about the same things.

Was really worried about the running game after the Baltimore 1st half.

The gospel according to Cooley this evening was essentially if they take the running game away from us by putting 8 in the box, like Baltimore did, we need to be prepared for the typical west coast short pass game.

Reminds me of the Pats/Ravens playoff game last year. There were a couple of drives when NE didn't call a single run.

It's a pretty safe bet IMO. If you're the D coordinator for Miami who do you test, Morris and Jones or Captain Kirk?

We just need Kirk to destroy his phone and connect on passes for positive yardage and keep our offense on the field.

I'm wondering more about our D.

How much of a role will Pot Roast have with their fast paced offense? It's not really hurry up but it is close.

If we can't get off the field after 3rd downs it's going to be a long day.
