I think every fan is optimistic going into the first game of the season.

Some possible misconceptions:

Miami actually runs the ball pretty well. Lamar Miller had 1100 yards at 5.1 per carry last year and he looks even stronger this season.

Our O-line was pretty bad last year. Brandon Albert was out and players played out of position all season. He is a pro bowl player that is back. Mike Pouncey at C is also a pro bowl player. James at RT has been solid. The weak point is a rookie at RG. Fans do not expect quite the mess we had last season.

Miami is stacked at WR. They had to keep 6 WRs so no one got poached. Devante Parker is a big kid with a huge catch radius and is expected to be a red zone threat. Stills is a speedster. Jarvis Landry is one of the top slot guys in the league. Mathews is very solid. Jennings can still run excellent routes. Cameron is a pro bowl TE who is great if he is healthy (concussion issues). Dion Sims is an excellent blocker.

Tannehill is going into his second year with this offense. He looks a lot more comfortable. In preseason he posted a 121 QB rating with 0 interceptions completing over 80% of his passes.

The starting Defense allowed 3 points in all of preseason. Wake lined up next to Suh and it wasn't pretty. It looked like they were up against high school players.

Our biggest weakness is at LB where we have inexperience. The safeties and CBs are talented. Depth is a concern all across the team. If we lose a player or two at certain positions, the season is over for us.

I can't speak intelligently about your team. All I can go by is the preseason games I watched on Game Pass.
I hope you guys enjoy the season.

Everything you listed is exactly why I dont think we can win straight up,we will have to get lucky somehow to win this game

Any given Sunday. I failed to mention that we have rookies at kicker and punter. Special teams disaster?

We don't have rookies at either position of kicker or punter.

I was speaking of the Dolphins. I have no idea what you are talking about or your obsession with below average candy.
