The Phinsider
With our Miami Dolphins heading into their final preseason game this coming Saturday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, I asked the following question:
What are you most looking forward to or hoping to observe in the Miami Dolphins’ preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars this coming Saturday? Are there specific players you want to watch, and if so, why? What aspects of their performance will you be focusing on, and why? What improvements will you be looking for from the team week over week?
Below are some of your thoughts and answers-
ezdz73 doesn’t expect to see the starters much, if at all, and will be looking to see what the backups and rookies have.
I wish the starters would have gotten a series in game 2, as they usually don’t in game 3. So I guess I’ll be watching for bubble and depth players.
JUK will be looking at the team’s depth and who will take the number two running back spot on the roster.
Things of interest:
The biggest question from strength is who will be DL 5 and possibly 6?
The biggest question from weakness is whether our second outside corner is on the roster
Do borom and Brunskill continue to look like good options as the primary reserves on the interior and at tackle? Does anyone else on the roster deserve OL8?
Is Ollie Gordon RB2?
SuperG! is curious to see how the backup QB race ends up.
I dunno. Maybe backup QB? Regardless of what happens in game 3 my guess is ZW is the QB2 backup for 2025 and doesn’t get extended for 2026. Ewers becomes the QB2 backup next year with a full year under his belt. I’m thinking 2025 is a year for Ewers to ride the pine.
MiMiami has his priorities in line!
The Cheerleaders
SlayerNation1 has some questions about the running backs going into the season.
Because the starters didn’t play in WK2, now they are in a spot where they shouldn’t play in WK3 as they would be cutting it close if there is an injury.
Plus, 53 day is next week so bubble players need to play.
Mix it up and let Ewers play with the 2s.
RB I would be tempted to not play OG at all.
People clamoring for OG as RB2. I would suggest take it farther that OG should be RB1 and Achane as the change of pace back.
The metaphor is Thunder and Lightning for a reason. Mike is apparently adhering to the laws of physics and reversing to Lightning then Thunder as it appears in nature due to the difference in speed of light compared to sound.
Anyway, with Mikes Lightning/Thunder approach, “Lightning” tends to get hurt.
Wright always looks like He is taking the handoff 15 yards behind the LOS. He just looks slow,...
