Miami Dolphins: They feature a top-10 offense for the first time since 1995.

You read that right. The Miami Dolphins haven't fielded a top-10 attack since Dan Marino was the field general, Bernie Parmalee -- a part-time UPS driver -- was one of the feature backs and O.J. McDuffie was catching a ton of balls. Oh yeah, don't forget Irving Fryar and the massive Eric Green at tight end. Don Shula was the head coach, for crying out loud. Ah, but last year, the offense made real strides under first-year head coach Adam Gase, improving from 27th to 17th in points scored. That was with backup Matt Moore playing significant time at quarterback, while all the starters were taking in Gase's system for the first time. Miami also faces the so-so defenses in the NFC South, a bit easier task then the NFC West units (Seahawks, Cardinals, Rams) they saw last year. Most interesting? How far QB1 Ryan Tannehill comes along.

This would be great to see and enjoy! A top 10 offense would help and improve the amount of time our defense is on the field and keep them fresh.

I sure hope that by mid season we're playing and looking like a top 10 offense; would be awesome to see.

25 PPG would have been top 10 last year, 2.3 PPG more than we scored, so it is definitely doable. We averaged 17.6 PPG the first 5 weeks, 25 PPG the next 11.

All I'm looking for is improvement.....

They play like they did after the first few weeks then it's no issue.

I could definitely see it happening .

And if the defense were ranked around 15th, that would be something else!

More like Brady breaks an ankle. Looks like the only way he is going to leave is if someone makes him.
