Lazor has incorporated part of Kelly’s system into his offense in Miami, but also uses the schematic themes Lazor learned from mentor-turned-colleague Al Saunders.

When the Dolphins visit the Eagles on Sunday, we’ll get a chance to see whose approach is best.

“I think Bill’s done a really nice job,” Kelly said this week. “ I don’t see a whole heck of a lot of what we’re doing. I think we see some elements, but you see some elements in every offense.”

Anyone else thinks this is like bringing a water balloon to a gun fight?

I don't expect Lazor to out-do Kelly...not that I think Kelly's all that...I think he's overrated.

Brian Flores when asked about tanking: “Again, no we’re not (tanking). We’re going to try to win every game. I think that’s disrespectful to even say that.”

I'm still picking a Miami upset. The family tree element helps this theory

Sam bradford has looked awful at times this season. I see a good performance from our defense

I see a rejuvenated Dolphins team overcome their shortcomings and make a statement in Philly- Fins Up 42-17

Winning football games at any level comes down to winning in the trenches.

I see Nolan Carroll picking off Tannehill in overtime returning it to the Miami 30 yard line, followed up by a Sturgis game winning 48 yard field goal.

If Miami RUNS the ball...
If the defense can get pressure on Bradford...

This game won't be close. Philly is overrated, Bradford is overrated, Chip Kelly is overrated

I'm afraid though Miami will find the ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory :sad:

We will get away from the run for yet another Sunday folks. Bill Lazor has to go.

Lazor has always tried to overthink things, not sure what to expect from him tomorrow.

I see Tanne having a good game today, because we are basically out of it after last week, and Tanne has a knack of having a big quarter, half or game once we are out of the game or playoff race, a no pressure situation, so he'll probably have his best game of the year to this point. Not trying to knock Tanne, just calling it like I see it.

I not trying to be a jerk but... If Tannehill has a bad game today, you will say he stunk. If he has a good game today, you will say he did because the game meant nothing. So what would he do today to impress you or make you happy? My guess is nothing because you have made up your mind on him already...which is absolutely your right. I just want to enjoy a Dolphin game again... While I expect to have our defense gashed today, I don't go into today's game saying, if they shut down the Eagles today, I know they still stink...if they get rolled, they stink anyway.. I'm not knocking the defense, just calling it like I see it.

I am also picking Miami in the upset as we grind out over 200 yards on the ground, and finally Ryan makes no mistakes and runs for over 50 himself.

Miami will run the ball less than 15 times. I hate Lazor and this unbalanced offense that we've been running for going on 4 years. I hope he never gets another pro gig.

well mark sanchez ended up playing so..... it's like playing 12 against 10 at that point in your favor. we left players wide open, let sanchez get a hardon, then he was confused on which eagles player to throw it to bc he had many, many options, then since he was so hyped and had a raging boner he ends up completely missing his target leading to incompletions and ultimately an int by jones.
