Well, last week Miami failed in alot of areas. They didn't get the RBs enough carries, and the defense couldn't stop Vick in the passing game. So what has changed in one week?
I think Miami will try even harder this week to get Ronnie & Ricky into the game as often as possible. The Patriots defense is weak in the secondary, and the front seven is not what it once was. Miami should be able to run on them. If they can get passed the front seven, we could see a couple HUGE breakaway runs this week.
As far as the passing game, I'm hoping that Frerotte has a great game. He needs it badly. One more bad performance from him and he may not be able to walk around freely in Miami. The Patriots secondary is not very good. Miami should be able to get the WRs back into the offense. It would be great to see McMichael get a TD this week.
On defense, Miami will have a tough time with Brady. Brady knows Miami well, and the Patriots offense is nothing without him. Everything revolves around his play. If Miami can get to him early, they will win. They need to put EXTREME pressure on Brady, and do it EARLY. That is how Miami has given him problems in the past. Last year, he was pressured into throwing that INT that cost NE the game. As far as the Patriots running game, a shadow of its former self. Miami can stack them up. Dillion will not get 100 yards.
My Week 10 Predictions:
1. Ronnie gets 100 yards on the ground, and gets back into the endzone.
2. Frerotte throws 1 TD and 1 INT, but has success in the passing game all day.
3. Zach Thomas comes back after a couple bad showings. He will get 10+ tackles this week.
4. Miami's defense will get at least two turnovers. One of them will come from Brady in the air.
5. Brady will throw for almost 300 yards, 2TDs and 1 INT. He will have a big day.
6. Mare kicks the game winning field goal and makes up for the miss he had against NE at home a couple years ago.
Miami can shut out Dillon. He has been banged up this year. Brady will want to throw anyway. It will be hard to keep him from having a big day. But if they can pressure him, he will eventually cough it up. They have to get pressure on Brady. This will be a close game. No matter what they have said all week. This IS a fight for first place. It is going to be a great game!
Final Score: Dolphins 20, Patriots 17
Dolphins edge this out and turn the season around!! GO FINS!!
