How does the national media view the Dolphins' game against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium?
The Miami Dolphins will look to improve their record to 3-6 on the season when they face the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium on Monday night.The Dolphins are playing consecutive road games and badly need this one, while the Rams are back home after winning at Seattle. The Rams have improved on offense as they've gotten healthier. The defense is growing up. Look for a big day for Matt Stafford.
The Dolphins aren't that same dangerous passing game with Tua Tagovailoa. They are counting a ton on the running and receiving of second-year De'Von Achane to set the tone for the offense. The Rams can keep Tagovailoa compressed with a rising young pass rush and scheme up some tougher coverage looks for him. On the other side, the Rams can pound through Miami with Kyren Williams and burn them everywhere with Cooper Kupp and expanded impact receiving corps for Matthew Stafford.
The Miami Dolphins have lost their last two games with Tua Tagovailoa under center, but that’s not his fault. He’s played really well, and the offense is functioning at a much higher level. The Dolphins aren’t quite out of the playoff picture in the AFC, but this is a must-win game on Monday Night Football. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Rams are right in the thick of things in the NFC West and need a victory to stay competitive with the 49ers, Cardinals, and Seahawks.
Puka Nacua got ejected for throwing a punch, and the Rams still came back to beat the Seahawks last week. The Rams may be feeding off that crazy Sean McVay energy and feel they are on the verge of making some noise after winning three straight. The Dolphins haven’t done anything this season to show they can slow down the likes of Nacua, Cooper Kupp and Kyren Williams. And Matthew Stafford should have time to operate, thanks to an injured Dolphins defensive front.
If we're going to go by recent Dolphins history, they'll come up short in this game because they just don't rise up against quality competition in prime-time games. But the Dolphins also started fast in each of McDaniel's first two seasons and that didn't happen this year. So just because it's the way it's been doesn't mean it's the way it'll always be.
