Are we going to observe the Dolphins of the last 10 years or are we going to see some excitement? The last 10 years of so has been a different day, same story when it comes to the Dolphins. Hopefully we see more creativity, taking advantage of miss matches, some big plays on offense and more than 20 points scored. Big chance for Miami to take a big step forward from not just last year, but the last 10. One game isn't everything, but this game can bring the confidence to the entire organization that the Dolphins need. Here's to hoping that recent history doesn't repeat itself.

Yep. We need to start a new legacy. Time to put up or shut up.
I'd love to see Tannehill pass for about 325 and 3 TD, Moreno run for another 2 with 115 yards, and the defense hold Brady to about 250 yards with 2 picks. We win 35-24! I'll **** myself if this actually happens.
We need to out coach Belli, period. We have to adjust to his adjustments, rattle Brady, and keep them guessing for 4 quarters. If we do that, we win.

What Miami has normally done under Philbin:
They always seem to start out sluggish on offense. Every time that they had a lead on a "superior" opponent at half-time, the defense couldn't stop them in the second half while the offense struggled to score. Rushing defense and 3rd down defense has been getting worse under Coyle.
What Miami needs to do this year (and especially today):
Lazor needs to get this offense averaging around 30 points per game, because I can't see the defense carrying this team any longer. The coaching staff needs to get better at making in-game and half-time adjustments to counter what the opponent is doing.
