OFFENSE
expect a very similar game plan to what the patriots had. if you didnt see that game the pats ran 36 times despite trailing for most of the game. the bills run defense is definitely weaker than their pass coverage so this is a good idea, i just hope boolarky doesn't intend to do it from jumbo i-form sets all game. he needs to get over that formation already...

DEFENSE
same as its been since saban walked through the door. alot of pressure from both man and zone coverage looks. the bills were raping the pats with double move routes in week 1. they were able to do this because the pats were playing coverage and not blitzing alot. you want to get to JP and make him make quick decisions like dumps to the TE and RBs before he has a chance to throw the ball downfield. without that aspect of offense, the bills cannot put up points. they are not a team that is going to go 10 plays 70 yards 3 or 4 times during a game.

also worth mentioning...

the bills were the number 1 team in the nfl last year on on opening drives. then it was all downhill from there. though the coaching staff has changed, it doesn't appear the problems scoring later in the game have. the bills scored 17 in the first half against the pats (10 offensive) and were shutout in the 2nd half.
 
Pressure is the bread and butter of every defense.....its near impossible to win w/o it...

I'm all for not giving up big plays..but Zach running head first into a guard doesnt seem like a very good blitz to me...

Alot of the VERY few succesfull big plays from JP have come when he is flustered out of the pocket and scrambles around and makes plays on the run..

Thus I would concentrate on blitzing the edges as opposed o the fore menioned Zach blitz....pressure from the edge's is the best way to attack JP.

Wouldnt be the first bet I would take this week..but with the extra 4 days we get plus superior coaching..I would def. take Miami over Buff +7.....

And I dont bet with my heart..thats why I didnt touch the "pick" vs Batch and the Steelers..

I went 6-3 on my NFL games this week wich is like a pesonal best considering how strange this league can be.
 
We got to be able to run the football. We need a 100 plus yards on the ground sunday to get the confidence going of that oline! If we shut down Willis and force the bills to throw the ball down the field i can see lots of turnovers for the bills and also lots of sacks for our defense. I am defently pumped about the game! Go Phins!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I'm pretty sure the Dolphins will win this game and Brown will have a great game and prove some of those doubters wrong.

This is a very good chance for the Dolphins to remind us all how good we "Hoped" they would be.

yeah, that's gotten old. what else you gonna do with zach though? cant put him in man coverage and he isn't a c-hair over 5'11" so playing a middle zone teams can just throw over the top of him.
 
The Running game will be the deciding factor for the dolphins

If we can run it 20-30 times, there's bound to be a big play(s) that'll lead to a score

Im expecting a big game from Ronnie
