I don't care if we are 17 point favorites! I am doing a quick breakdown anyway!
Where should we attack Miami? Pass the ball. They have the 2nd worst defensive passer rating in the NFL. Even with that bad pass D they oddly enough haven't given up many yards... As for why I don't know. Teams have not attacked that like they should have IMO.
Their run D is average. Not bad. Not good. So running on them is okay but you won't be able to run over him.
Their front doesn't generate much pressure. Wake and Suh are still there but the pressure just isn't what is use to be for these older players.
I am happy to attack their secondary all day at pretty much any spot. Alonso is perhaps their best defensive player right now at LB and he isn't doing all that well. He is horrible at covering 3rd down backs this year.
On offense their running game is actually okay. Drake and Williams seem to alternate okay games. Usually they don't get to continue to run cause they get behind too much though and become 1 dimensional. Their RBs can catch a bit but it isn't something to worry about too much.
They of course have a good WR core with Stills, Parker and Landry. No surprise there. You can't entirely forget Julius Thomas at TE either though he isn't what he was with Manning back in the day.
Their OL is average to below average in both run and pass blocking.
The way to play this team is simple no matter who their QB is.. pass early, pass often, pass deep, pass short. They can't defend our passing offense. If they get some pressure leave an extra guy home and keep passing. Run enough to make them respect it then burn them on play action. That is the offensive game play.
On D just play back and dare them to run. This could be another 3-2-6 game. They have dangerous WRs but the QB will screw up if we give him enough chances.
Repeat as needed till up and then run the game out.
