Will Jeff Wilson Jr.’s workload expand? Taking care of those and others…..

 

Teams coming off their bye usually come out one of two ways, flat, or hot. Do you have any expectations on how the Dolphins will perform coming off their bye? Do you expect the Dolphins to have a pass-heavy attack, a run-heavy attack, or a balanced attack against the Raiders?

Hey Dana, I do not expect the Dolphins to come out flat in the least and they certainly didn’t last season when they dominated Houston in the first half on their way to a 30-15 win. As to the game plan offensively, I’d lean a bit toward the run because of the return of De’Von Achane and the fact the Raiders are much better against the pass than the run.

Who would be considered the leading candidate to play poorly enough to cost the Dolphins a victory?

Hey John, that’s not a very nice question in that you’re asking me to pick a weak link. I’m certainly not going to predict anybody having a bad game. Now, if you want to turn it around and examine which player can least afford to have a bad game, then you go by position, and it would always start with quarterback, then cornerback, then offensive tackle.

If Berrios can’t go on Sunday, who’s the likely option for slot and/or return duties? Possible that we’d see TH10 on punts??

Hey Doug, Tyreek always could be an option, but I’m not seeing it. I think Cedrick Wilson Jr. would handle that role if Berrios ends up not playing. As for the slot, I’d go with a combination of Wilson, Cracraft, Hill and Waddle.
