The Miami Dolphins travel Sunday to Detroit to face off against our Football Lions. To say this season both the offense and defense for Detroit has been a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is an understatement. But are still in the top 10 in scoring, despite only scoring 6 points in 2 games.
The key to stopping the Dolphins? Keep their offense off the field. We should be seeing the return of D’Andre Swift to the backfield. Amon-Ra St. Brown has cleared his concussion protocol on Monday. So we have a couple of key weapons back!
Establish the run, hard and heavy between the 1-2 punch of Swifty and Swaggy to get the playaction working . Thus, setting up Goff’s 1 true strength as a QB. The Playaction pass. Goff needs a good team with talent around him to have this offense work. That has been evident over the past 2 weeks.
On Defense, make Tua uncomfortable in the pocket. Maintain gap assignments in the run game. Okudah will have rhe daunting task of covering Tyreek Hill. While the others will have to try and contain Jaylen Waddle.
The Lions desperately need to come away with a win here to not fall too far behind schedule. As after this week there are only 10 games left in the season. The can win, but will they?
