Keep on Rolling


The Dolphins have now won three games straight by not only beating, but demolishing a division rival.  The Bills managed to score only 8 points all game and the Dolphins put 35 points up on the board.  This offensive effort was led by Matt Moore who was very efficient passing, going 14 for 20 with 160 yards passing and 3 touchdowns.   Matt Moore has been a very key aspect to the win streak as he has been able to do what is asked of him and not turn the ball over.  This has allowed the defense to play as well as they can and leave Moore in situations where he can win the game.  The Dolphins have not put the pressure on Moore to win, but have put him in a position where if he performs well the team will win.  If Moore continues playing this well for the rest of the season he may see an increase in pass attempts and also may secure his job as the starter of the Dolphins for next season as well. 



Next week the Dolphins are in the national spotlight when they travel to Dallas to take on the Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.  The 6-4 Cowboys currently sit atop the NFC East and the Dolphins can make a statement in front of the whole nation if they can defeat the Cowboys.  Dallas is coming of a close win over the Redskins and will be looking to bring their win streak to 4 games just like the Dolphins.  This should be an interesting game and show how the new Dolphins can play against a very solid Cowboys team.
