Matchup Dolphins should exploit

Dolphins run defense vs. Jets RBs: Quietly the Dolphins have put together the league's No. 2 rushing defense, allowing just 61 yards per game on the ground. The Jets' so-called "Ground and Pound" attack has failed to put either Thomas Jones or Leon Washington over 58 yards the past three weeks. Making the Jets one-dimensional would put serious pressure on rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez.

Matchup that should concern Dolphins

Jets LB Bart Scott vs. Dolphins pass protection: After taking six sacks in his first NFL start Sunday against a banged-up Buffalo Bills defense, Chad Henne must stand tall in the pocket against a team known for its exotic blitzes. The Jets have just four sacks, but Scott leads the way with seven of the team's 35 quarterback hits, and OLB Calvin Pace returns from a four-game league suspension.
