So I got the pick right week 1. Score was way off though.

But you all are not gonna like this prediction.

Baltimore - 28
Fish - 13

I did even better.
Since I was uncomfortable with a score, I chose a win for us with a point differential of 10 or more points.

I'm making the same prediction for game 2 against the Ravens, a Dolphins win by 10 or more points. i
I feel that NE is a better team this year than the Ravens, so if we can beat NE then we should certainly beat the Ravens.

I'll add another prediction - I predict we will win by 10 points or more and score in at least 3 of the first 4 quarters of the game.

NE is not at all better than the Ravens this year. The apathies are rudderless at Offense. They have a D coach and a failed former NYG coach running their Offense. They have no RB, no real WR and their OLine is pathetic .Ravens don’t have that problem and their QB is spotty but when he’s on, he is hard to beat. We will have to play considerably better this week to beat these guys then be lights out in week 3.
 
We beat them last year, and I think that we can beat them again.

Jax to miss game, I suspect, but we have some actual depth this year.

Dolphins 24
Ravens 23

That makes me think it was Boyer's defense the first part of last season and then Flores changed it to the more aggressive style we saw in the second half of last season.

Completely wrong statement there.

It was reported several times by different people that Josh Boyer was the one calling the plays in second half.

Also Jerome Baker said that Flores wasn’t nearly as involved in defensive team meetings, he would pop in from time to time.

Also, in your other post you seem to state we played way too passive and somehow it was Boyer’s fault….

Our defense allowed 270 yards TOTAL, had 3 turnovers, a defensive touchdown and allowed 7 points.

Every credible podcaster or beat writer praised our defense and J Boyer in particular for his game plan.

You do realize you can’t just zero blitz on every down right? This isn’t Madden. I understand not being happy if we played very passively and got shredded… but defense was actually extremely effective and NE essentially only had 1 good drive that ended up being a turnover anyway.
 
I believe we can win but to say we're going to score in the 30's is really out there. I can’t see the offense going from 13 points at home to high scoring at Baltimore. I don’t predict scores and we need to see who plays and who doesn’t. Our offense will need time to click and if you take away both of our OT's, specially Arsmtead and that makes it even harder.

I don't see the Dolphins getting blown out like that against the Bills.

They'll likely win. But not in a rout like that and especially i home

Actually I expect a better score vs the Bills than at Ravens. I expect two loses but VS the Bills should be a one score game and at Ravens it could be ugly. Hope I am wrong.

There is no argument to be made. The defense that was played yesterday wasn't the same attacking defense from the end of last season and if they keep playing the same style of defense from yesterday they will get exposed. Period!

Absolutely ridiculous.

What will be exposed is that aggressive cover 0. History shows that defensive schemes only stay relevant for 2-3 years tops before they get exploited and major overhauling is needed.

I'd much rather be able to send out a bunch of solid but different looks defensively than be stuck with one formation ibrely on like last season.

The defense we saw last week was 100x improved from the defensive scheme we saw last year which is just begging to be exploited.
 
Idk...but I see a Dolphin loss here and with Tua being the topic of conversation on how bad he is and unelite
