Let’s talk about the Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins have a great defense, a mediocre at best offense. Not all that different from Denver really, but coached better.

A win would clinch the AFCW for the 5th straight season, so there is some added importance. Of course we are on Pittsburgh’s heels, too.

I think we all aren’t totally sure what to make of the team at this point. They’ve been inconsistent in their focus, their execution. There seem to be problem areas that could be upgraded by simply plugging a backup in (hi, Wis), but it remains to be seen if any changes are going to be made.

It’s a weird league where outcomes are all over the place, winning is really damn hard, but they’re still 11-1 and largely look to be on cruise control half the time. I do think there’s something to be said for the GS Warriors comparison where sometimes they just don’t flip the switch until they have to. I guess we will see what happens as the games get bigger and bigger for this team.

This one won’t be easy, but if the offense comes out locked in from the go, it shouldn’t be a scare. I also think it’s another opportunity for the defense to perform well again, but I still feel like we need more from our pass rush along the DL moving forward.

Game is at noon on CBS...

Not sure what to make of an 11-1 team? In a season of bad Chief Fan takes, this is one of the Chiefs Fanniest.

I didn’t word that statement the best or exactly as I meant it.

More so what I was trying to say is they keep finding ways to win which is great, but it’s rarely ever as expected, nor as easy as is expected. Win is a win, I got it.

The offense has been great really outside of the two Denver games where they just killed us in terms of situation football.

Special teams have been hit or miss. The defense has been pretty good IMHO but it’s clear that there’s more meat on the bone, and the pass rush output we have saw for the past month is not the same level we saw early in the year.

They definitely have been inconsistent in their focus. Their execution has been fine.

I have no idea what you mean. How are you measuring "focus"? If it doesn't impact execution, I'm even less sure what you mean.

So when is the ring ceremony for Fitzpatrick?
