Alterin Verner? Xavien Howard? Mike Hull? What's the plan? He picked apart the Panthers and seems to have his mojo back while Jay Cutler has his Gojo back. The Dolphins are going to need to score touchdowns aplenty. Hopefully Adam Gase has them prepared this week unlike the debacle that was the Mauling at the Meadpwlands...............

Honestly, I expect Drew Brees to have a big game. I don't mean that to be negative, it's just that he almost always does have a big game. He's one of the best. Right up there with the Tom Brady's of the NFL.

I think the key for Miami is controlling the clock, running the ball effectively, to keep Brees and the New Orleans offense off the field. I see the redzone defense being absolutely huge for the Dolphins. If they can hold a few drives to field goals, rather than touchdowns, than the team might have a chance.
 
Maybe Drew will miss the plane...one can hope!!!!....Only we would make his backup look like the next coming of Marino.
 
If we can keep the ball for like 40 minutes by running and short passes then we might have a chance but I don't see us keeping the football for that long but it's ok, it'll be good for the FO to see what we really have. Sorry guys bad years and years of horrible drafting is the main reason we have won in 44 years and yes, that includes Shula. The bad drafting started with him right after he got Marino. He had some horrible drafts. JJ had some great drafts as far as defense but nothing on offense and after he left it's been downhill from there. Add that to being pretty bad in free agency as well and here we are.

Ozzy rules!!
 
Our DL is so respected that teams are throwing the ball less than 2 seconds from the snap. We have big corners. Time for a leap of faith and put these corners tight on the line and press. The lbs always seem to be in zone so I don't know how they could be baffled that the ball is coming their way when qbs are basically being funneled into throwing the short pass. Time to play some complementary football on defense
 
If they are going to be missing those 2 starting tackles likely means short drops and sets from Brees. And Miami better counter by playing it tighter on the boundary and in the slot vs their WRs.

Timmons back will be a boost with the range and zone awareness but if it's pitch and catch cause of how we play it gameplan wise our pass rush won't be worth squat.

Don't give them anything make em earn it
