What is our surprise ability

[chuck dezl]

Obviously I think it's the takeaways on defense, can we keep it up? I mean we had takeaways on special teams too... I feel like that is what will be the hardest to sustain.
Similar to how the qb for the Bills came out of nowhere last year, is that gonna happen again?
Will Jets still suck?
Will bb look like a typical Browns cast-off?
That is how I interpreted last season and I feel like any good writer could make Miami look like the best or the worst. Same thing with all the other teams. Obviously the Bills need to be worked over a bit right now...

I'm hoping that our 'surprise' is that our O-line takes a huge step forward. If they can become an average line, Tua's confidence will soar. If they can become an above-average line, and we can run behind these guys (even if its only against the mediocre teams), we'll have a top 10 Offense.

What he /\ /\ said.

Waddle returning punts giving us better field position to start our offensive drives.

Bedding tall supermodels with our charismatic smiles????

The Buffalo QB didn't come out of nowhere, he has been steadily improving from year to year.

Surprisingly, I think our ability to rush the passer is what is helping create turnovers and ultimately team success.

Winning the Superbowl ! - I'm a believer

I want to see improvement of Tua which I'm sure is somewhat tied into the oline improving substantially, our new WRs getting quickly acclimated, and hopefully Waddle's production due to familiarity with Tua being on a high level right out of the gate.

X Ray Vision. Coach Flores learned well from Belichick and has someone stealing signals on the other sideline lol

 

[BlueFin]

Super speed!

 

[DuderinoN703]

Going 10-6 with apparently the worst QB and RBs in the league and no Top 50-100 players anywhere.

Check Down Charlie!!! Lmaooooo

 

[BC Phins4Life]

Would it not be great if one game we came out with a formation like the Wildcat we used against the Patriots years ago and Ronnie Brown ran wild on them. Not sure what it could be but I remember that game was so fun to watch Belichek being out coached.

Win a playoff game.
After 20 years that would be a surprise.

I think it could be a resurgent running attack. The tremendous speed that both Fuller and Waddle bring has to be accounted for.

Miami should see larger running lanes.

Also, while I agree with the narrative that turnovers are difficult to count on from year to year, I think the Dolphins could still excell in that regard.

The draft brought a ballhawk in Holland and perhaps the best pass rusher in Phillips. It's partly scheme, partly talent and some luck when it comes to turnovers.
