We are back in preview mode again. This week we are going to
preview a game in which both teams need a win. The Dolphins need a win because
they have a young QB Ryan Tannahill who needs to learn how to win against tough
defenses. 1st he drew the Houston Texans Week 1 and was crushed.
This week the Oakland Raiders defense comes into town with a front 7 that can
rival most in the NFL. The Raiders need this win because as a team you don’t ever
want to start a season 0-2. The Raiders are angry coming off of a game they
should have played a lot better in….
Game #2 – Oakland Raiders
vs Miami Dolphins
Offense: OAK: B+/MIA:
C-: The Offense looks to get a break with a weak Dolphins defense to match
up against and the return of at least one of the 2 receivers it didn’t have
last week back in the offense. Carson Palmer will have an opportunity to show that him and his new team can be good
enough to win the division. Can Darren McFadden finally have a break out game.
And can Tannahill bounce back after last weeks horrible game against the
Texans. We will see…
Defense: OAK: A-/MIA:
C: The Defense didn’t look bad against San Diego. Even in giving up 5 FG’s
and a touchdown the Raiders defense looked good. The front 7 dominated the bulk
of the game Philip Rivers never looked quite comfortable in the Pocket and that
is the way that the Raiders like it. The Dolphins on the other hand have the
terror of a pissed off Raiders offense to deal with don’t expect many big play
from this part of the game for the Dolphins even at home…
Special Teams: OAK:
B+/ MIA: C-: This is one area of the game as I have mentioned before the
Raiders will always have the advantage. Janko and Lechler are the best kicking
tandem in the NFL. So I will focus on the long snapper if they don’t return
their original starting long snapper. This is going to be another long day for
the Raiders Special Teams…
Final Game Result:
Raiders 28, Dolphins 14
