It’ll be interesting to see if Ronnie Brown is hurt.
The Dolphins aren’t nearly as bad as their record. The only thing they really do poorly is stop the run. They’re 29th in the NFL in turnovers, and 29th in penalties. Those three stats are coaching-related, understandable given Cameron’s inexperience. They’re also tied for 24th in sacks with a lot of teams. Houck has that OL playing really well, and Red Hadnot might be getting Pro Bowl consideration if he was on a better team.

The last two games, and the future
October 10, 2007
What needs to be done, and what’s been going wrong…
1. Replacing Jack Corcoran with Jean Beljour at FB. This was already done in the Cincy game.
2. Get Mason Robinson some touches at RB to give Rice a bit of a breather, and add a big play element to the offense.
3. Kevin Haslam at RG. I think the problem is mostly that him and Blaze at C are just inexperienced, so putting Anthony Davis in the starting lineup isn’t going to help a whole lot there. Haslam really does look like a future stud, but he’s more of a left tackle. Doesn’t seem to have the bulk for RG. Roughly, imagine D’Brickashaw Ferguson trying to pancake guys downfield. I guess Davis could help here, but I don’t really think him or Mazan in the starting lineup at C would help all that much.
