Let’s talk about the Miami Dolphins

Shall see. Ever since Boyer moved him into the role no TE has gone over 50 yards on him that I recall. Even Kittle was limited to 44 yards on 4 catches.

I don't expect Rowe to keep that up against Kelce, but I do hope to keep him down to around 4-6 catches and under 70 yards hopefully. Or hopefully the team will alternate doubling up Kelce and Hill. I don't like the idea of running man against either too often.

Yeah, it will be a matchup to watch.

Noah Fant had 4/55 yards against Miami a few weeks ago. That's the best guy they've faced since Kittle, and honestly, neither is comparable to what Kelce is as a receiver. Kittle is a freak and great YAC guy and Fant is super fast, but neither runs routes with the grace and deception Kelce does (he runs routes like a WR, just incredible feet).

Honestly, Miami's best bet is to rush 4 and hope Ogbah and company can get there, or hope the Chiefs have a penalty which causes a drive to stall.

If the defense holds Kelce to 4-6 catches for 70 yards, that means Tyreek Hill and a random receiver or running back had big games. It's very rare for teams to stifle both Kelce and Hill in the same game.
