I do not like this matchup for the Dolphins at all. Big WRs, a pedestrian Gates that still will likely shred our LBs, a RB with home run ability, a dink and dunk passer that seems destined to pick up those annoying 3rd and 24 pickups against our Dolphins...for some reason I can't think of this game without envisioning Jay Cutler fumbling with a strip sack.
I did not enjoy typing any of the above.
That said, the players are fired up. A fast start will be crucial for keeping the ball in Rivers' mistake-prone hands. We need some youngsters like Harris to step up and cause them to make mistakes. A Chargers team with confidence is scary. A Chargers team that is rattled is almost comedic to behold.
Can't envision a Patriots loss against the Saints, so this is also a crucial week if this team wants to have some breathing room for the marathon 16-game-with-no-breaks season in front of them.
SO EXCITED DOLPHINS FOOTBALL IS BACK!
