[h=4]1. Bench Greg Jennings, start DeVante Parker[/h]The veteran receiver has been a major disappointment with practically as many drops as he has catches. Kenny Stills has been ineffective as well during the first three games of the season. Enter Parker who has been limited in snaps because he’s returning from injury and rounding into form;
[h=4]2. Get Billy Turner & Jason Fox snaps at guard and find a commitment to the run[/h]Granted half of this equation depends on Branden Albert returning from injury but either way Turner needs to play some as he could help with his power in the running game. Dallas Thomas and Jamil Douglas have struggled mightily and creating a rotation with Fox and Turner inside will at least keep all of them fresh and hopefully make the guard play more effective.
[h=4]3. Play more 3-4 & 5-2 base looks and move Ndamukong Suh around the formation[/h]The Miami Dolphins haven’t been able to stop the run much at all and they’ve been stubborn sticking with a 4 man front with two undersized ends. Miami has depth at defensive tackle and can rotate Jordan Phillips, C.J. Mosley and A.J. Francis at NT with Earl Mitchell, Suh, Derrick Shelby and Terrence Fede at the 5 technique DE’s. This will allow Cameron Wake and Olivier Vernon to play further out on the edge and utilize their speed more. Miami also has to take advantage of teams keying on Suh and move him around the formation to attempt to create some confusion for opposing offenses.
[h=4]4. Play Jonas Gray over Damien Williams[/h]The Dolphins need a true thumper between the tackles to compliment Lamar Miller and Williams is not that player. While he is talented and good in the passing game, Williams lacks true power and vision. With Jay Ajayi still out on temporary IR, Gray got some carries against the Bills and showed good vision and the leg drive to break the arm tackles Miller & Williams can’t. While Miller should remain the lead back, the Dolphins need to get the running game going and getting a nice blend of explosiveness from Miller and a guy who can get the tough yards in Gray, might be the recipe the Miami Dolphins need to jumpstart a stagnant ground game.
[h=4]5. Play Brice McCain where he was signed to play, in the slot[/h]McCain has been starting on the boundary and he’s getting used and abused out there. It’s clear the starting spot does not suit him. With Jamar Taylor healthy, the Miami Dolphins need put McCain back in his natural position and get back to developing Taylor on the boundary where he performed well at last season before his injury. Granted there will be penalties and growing pains but it’s painfully obvious he’s better suited outside while McCain is better suited for the slot. The Dolphins should also look to getting the rookie Bobby McCain some snaps both in the slot and on the boundary to give the other corners a breather.

The next two week is as big as it gets for the 2015 Miami Dolphins, if they win the next two games, Playoffs dream are still alive and well. However, losing one or both of the games will definitely put the proverbial nail on the coffin. The next thing to do will be to have a fire sale, trade everybody. Lamar Miller, Rishard Mathews, OV, Kenny Stills , Earl Micthell and Greg Jennings could and should be traded for picks. Next with a new Coaching stuff, the team should be easy to Rebuild. we have a good young QB, build around him and build the defense around SUH. There you go ! Championship!
