    Dolphins only need three plays to beat Titans senseless.

    1. Find TE...throw to them.
    2. Find RB running free out of backfield...throw to them.
    3. Find WR matched up on McCain...throw to them.

    Game over.

    We are due a Dolphins breakout game. Gase gets coaching accolades while Defense shts the bed again.

    Fins shutout by the Saints gonna put up at least 24 on us

    Since it looks like we have cassel backed up by wheeden, I’m expecting the game to go like this.

    We run the ball all day against 10 in the box for no yardage. Our qbs throw at least three pics.

    The defense looks decent for a quarter or two and then fold like the gutless lawn chairs they are and we get smoked.

    I've wondered why we don't start with a fast offense Mariota is used to, and good at running. At least in the first quarter or drives.

    THEN settle in to smashmouth.

    2nd half... rinse & repeat.

    I seem to remember some pretty pathetic performances by us against the Dolphins in the past...

    I agree that we win if Mariota plays, but it is really looking like he is out at this point. However, in the spirit of trying to be positive here I think we can still win without Mariota, but it will be ugly.

    Titans 10-6....if I was a betting man I would take the under on total points scored unless it is less than 10.

    Probably because that's not a brand of football these coaches know

    They do these things for a reason, we can't just shift into one of those 2 kinds of offenses, that requires a much deeper depth chart than what we could build in the time Mulareky has been given

    Tennessee won last year 30-17, got thrashed by an interim coach in 2015 and the previous meeting was in 2012, Tennessee spanked them 37-3.

    Your memory is playing games because we all remember the bad beats (like poker). Losing to an interim coach is embarrassing. Getting smashed 38-10 is unforgivable and part of the reason Wiz was fired.

    We have done that, though, when we need to.

    They can do it, just prefer not to. Because lethargic starts>>scoring.
