With our Miami Dolphins taking on the Chicago Bears tomorrow afternoon, I asked the following question:
What are you most looking forward to or hoping to observe in the Miami Dolphins’ preseason game against the Chicago Bears this coming Sunday? Are there specific players you want to watch, and if so, why? What aspects of their performance will you be focusing on, and why?
Below are some of your thoughts and answers-
FlyerFinFan is, like many of us, concerned about how the CBs look.
I want to see how the CBs do. Reason being it’s the most questionable position on the team right now. I’m really hoping to see these guys play well and surprise us all. Perhaps the vet safeties help them out especially the younger CBs which is most of them. Let the battle begin!
SuperG! also has some concerns that at lot of us have, the lack of solid depth for the OL starters.
I’ll be looking at the OL second and third team of which I’m not hearing good things. It sounds like the starters are solid but once you get past the top 5, it sounds like a huge drop off. What sucks is that will negatively affect but ZW and Ewers performances if the the backup OL can’t hold their own. Hopefully the only reason why they are struggling is because the Dolphins front 7 has been ferocious during training camp.
Tua2HillWaddle want’s to see what th QB depth looks like and hopes that they are both good enough to get the team something to think about.
I am hoping both QB’s – ZW and Ewers, make it extremely difficult for MM to decide who backs up Tua. Having two capable backups would be a good problem to have. I don’t expect to see TT out there at all, although a few reps wouldn’t be a bad idea. I’m just ultra-curious if Ewers will be considered if he balls out.
Jptapt points out the most important thing.
Just getting out of the game healthy. That alone is a win.
cyberflea wants to watch to see how some of the depth pieces look.
Three areas I will be looking at, depth on the OL, secondary and the backup QB battle between Wilson and Ewers.
Miami7 has a lot of thoughts and hates snow.
These games are hard to watch. I like to ‘think’ I know the game but concentrating on a particular OL’man let’s say, just has never been in my wheelhouse. I think many pretend in that truth & try to fake their own knowledge to sound intelligent here? QB’s/RB’s/WR’s are sorta easy to ‘see’ but the intricacies of the OL or focusing on one player/one aspect of non-spotlight player development? I got nuthin’….
Put me on a baseball field & I’ll tell ya A to Z who’s who…football’s different (for me). I couldn’t tell ya what good OLman footwork is compared to the man...
