I am not writing anything here that some have probably not already thought about, but if you consider what happened last night to the Patriots, this week 1 reschedule may work for Miami in a huge way.
1. This gives Miami an extra week to get Cutler to get used to his O-line (What to expect), and find better chemistry with the receivers.
2. It gives Miami an extra week to prepare for the Chargers in Las Angeles. West coast away games are always extra tough, the extra early time to prepare, allows Miami to be able to rest up more later in the week to be healthier and fresher for the game.
3. The Bucs are a talented team, Miami was going to be going against them with a new QB, and a new DC who will have to learn on the job, having the game against the Bucs in week 11 allows Cutler to be more prepared, and have better chemistry with his receivers.
4. The Chiefs lately have been a more early out of the gates team, by them beating the Patriots, that makes Miami winning it's 1st game even more important, if they had taken on the Bucs early, it might now have gone as well as it could go in week 11. If Miami is able to beat the Bucs, the Chiefs team they see in week 16, might not come close to the Chiefs team the Patriots saw last night.
5. Losing a late bye is a problem, especially if your team starts to look like the walking wounded, but if Gase is able to play it right, players that need rest from small injuries could still get it, but if Miami does go on a roll, not having a bye could help them to continue momentum. Also because the player are angry they will not be playing without a net (That bye that could allow them to rest of needed), they could now be more focused, while having a slight chip on their shoulders after somewhat getting screwed a 2nd time (London home game).
This could be a very interesting season guys, sit back, and get ready, because though it will at times get very bumpy, the final destination could be pretty Super.
