Miami's 53-man roster

 With the first game of the season only 10 days away, the Dolphins have recently finished making their roaster cuts to have their initial 53-man roster for the season. Most of the cuts were expected, but a few came with a bit of a surprise. One cut that didn't come at too much of a surprise, but I personally wish he made the roster was RB Za 'Quandre white. The former Gamecock running back was having an impressive training camp as an undrafted back, and even scored a touchdown in the final preseason game against the eagles. However, two cuts that came at more of surprise were OL Solomon Kindley, and WR Lynn Bowden Jr. Kindly was a young talent who played very solidly his first year with Miami. Kindley had injury trouble which must have led a part in his release. Lynn Bowden was a former 3rd round pick, a QB turned WR. Bowden proved to be a nice gadget player with good hands in his last season with the dolphins, but with the new addition of players like, Tyreek Hill, Cedrick Wilson, and Erik Ezukanma, the roster did not have room for another WR it seemed. With their roster finalized, the Dolphins now look to week 1 against New England.

Preview of week 2

 The dolphins are 1-0 entering week two, in hopes to make it 2-0 against the ravens. The Ravens have seemed to have had the dolphin's number in previous matchups in the last couple years, but last year the dolphins revived their dying season with a win against Lamar Jackson and company. The defense last year had maybe their best game of the season, throwing different all-out blitz combinations at Lamar and it seemed to have him stumped. Many other dolphins' fans and I hope that the Defensive coordinator, Josh Boyer, is going to emulate that sort of game plan yet again to have some of that same success and secure the win. The Ravens are also 1-0 coming into week two with their first win coming against the lowly jets. I predicted a more well-polished offensive game from the dolphins, putting up 4 at least 4 touchdowns. Final score prediction: 31-24 Dolphins.

Week one post game analysis

 NFL week one has come and gone for the Miami dolphins. They kicked off against the patriots in Miami at 1:00 this afternoon, and around 3 hours later the Miami dolphins were 1-0. The game ended with a score of 20-7, the dolphins took a 3-0 lead in the first quarter and never looked back. The defense picked up right where they left off last year picking off Mac jones in the endzone on the first drive of the game. The dolphin defense would make the patriots cough up 2 more turnovers, a strip sack for a touchdown in the 2nd quarter, and a game sealing fumble recovery late in the game. With that being said the defense looked great, the offense however, left some to be desired. I would like to chalk it up to shaking off some offseason rust because they didn't look terrible, but unfortunately it wasn't what every fan was hoping for. Tyreek Hill had a respectable stat line of 8 catches for 94 yards, and Tua with his best stat line against the patriots throwing for 270 yards and a tou...

Dolphins Vs. Ravens Game Review

 Oh my, what a game the dolphins had themselves on Sunday. Through the first half dolphins' fans were hanging their heads thinking, "Another year of false expectations", to jumping and cheering in the fourth quarter as we watched out team look like a super bowl contender. After getting beaten up most of the game with a couple bright spots the first three quarters, Tua Tagovailoa and his receivers, Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill caught fire. Tua threw 4 touchdowns in the 4th, netting him a total of 6 touchdowns for the game. This tied the franchise record held by Dan Marino and Bob Greise. Not only did the offense start making plays, but the defense suddenly woke up once the offense got going. The defense mad a crucial 4th down stop in the 4th, forcing multiple 3 and outs to get the ball back, and holding the ravens to only a field goal on their final drive. This game truly had it all and have given fans a glimpse at how much potential this team has going forward. Dolphins...
