After starting the season 0-7, the Miami Dolphins are on a two-game winning streak and seem to be enjoying themselves on the gridiron. Loosing is very tough on a team, especially when they had come so close so many times. Matt Moore became perhaps the most unlikely player to win the AFC Offensive Player of the Week Award after his performance against the Kansas City Chiefs and had a respectable showing against the Redskins this week. With all of the criticism and bashing they have received (myself included) they have stuck by their coach and dug in to win these games.
This week they play a Bills team that started off very strong, but has struggled recently. While a few weeks ago I would have thought they have no chance to win, I think they definitely have a chance. They need to play good defense like they are capable of and hope that Matt Moore, Reggie Bush, Brandon Marshall and co. can contribute enough offense. While the rest of the season is going to be tough, it will give a good benchmark to see what they have going into the draft, free agency and next season.
The Dolphins are certainly looking better now that they were three weeks ago. Hopefully they can hold on to their momentum. Despite the Bills recent struggles, I still think they're a good team, so beating them would definitely be an accomplishment for the Dolphins.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, see if you can make your links a different color, because, at least on my screen, they're coming up black on a black background so they're extremely difficult to read.
Do you see Moore being the Quarterback of the future for the Fins, or is he just a one year stand in.
ReplyDeleteI really hope he finds success here, becuase I don't think he's a one hit wonder. He definitely has talent and if they can build around him in the draft rather than going for Luck I think the Fins could eventually return to prominence.
Thoughts?
Matt Moore has been very successful in the role that the Dolphins have had for him. If he continues to develop, he may be the answer at quarterback. However, I think the Dolphins will still draft a quarterback and create competition for the starting spot next year.
