NFL Week 12 Preview: Dolphins at Patriots

[DKphin]

WR Jarvis Landry vs. CB Malcolm Butler – This will be the matchup to watch in this game, as it features the Dolphins best offensive weapon against New England’s best cornerback. Landry is currently the 17th highest graded receiver in the league at 81.5 (out of 115 that qualify) and Butler’s overall grade of 78.7 is tied for 41st out of 118 qualified cornerbacks. Butler is coming off a solid game against Oakland, in which he was targeted five times and only allowed 28 receiving yards. The surging Landry will have his work cut out for him in this game.

I am Thankful that we do not have to watch the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving. We can enjoy our dinner without the horror of another prime time debacle.

OK...you want a preview "we lose badly"

Will the Dolphins be able to keep the Patriots under 50 is the big question.

It's hard not to think that New England will put up 50 plus points in this game. I'm still waiting for that game where Miami puts it all together. If that happens, maybe it will be a surprisingly competitive game.

I want to be positive, so I'll say I'm looking for improvement along the OL. I'm hoping we have no injuries. Yeah, that about sums up the positives.

1st half?

1st half?

Could the Patriots be the first team ever to score 100 points in a game? If they are up by more than 70 in the 2nd half they might put in their backups. Sadly even their backups would probably torch the Dolphins defense.

Pats 45
Dolphins 17

Pats 41, Fins w Cutler 6. Fins w Moore 17.

I just can't see us scoring 17 points because NE will keep the ball away from our offense as our defense can't get off the field

Ozzy rules!!

Agreed! Gronk is going to have a career game against Kiko. As painful as it is, I want to see Miami get embarrassed so bad that Ross has to make changes. The season is over anyways.

Here's a preview...and more likely than not, the reality of it, Pats beat our asses badly.

this is not gonna end well...thank god i won't be watching.

I heard Brady missed practice so I figured right away he sits out this one and the current no name backup will post huge numbers and hang 40+ points on the hapless Fins D causing a stir and creating instant value for a guy who hours before was unknown in the league.
