Is It Sustainable?

Yes, we are all happy that we can run the ball and have won two in a row, but the question is can this vicious run game continue to be successful or will defenses figure out how to stop it or will the O-line falter and not stay healthy given the extra effort they put out to win the the battle of the trenches and time of possession.

I must say that winning the time of possession also means a longer period of play for the O-line which has not been able to stay healthy for any extended period of time, the more they play the bigger the chance someone gets injured.

I'll bite, and say that I think we can sustain it because everyone in the team is exited and wants to be a part of something great, the players are all very motivated by what's going on and that confidence can move swagger can move mountains or at least opposing D-lines, I hope.

If the Dolphins can run for not 200 yards a game from Jay Ajayi, but if we can get between 120 to 150 yards a game from our RBs as a unit, we are good to go.

We will run for 170 to 210 yards and win the game.

I don't really see us getting 200 yards rushing against the Jets.

Expect a big day for Phins receiving corps. Maybe a buck ten from the run game.

If Phins can get 125 yards out of run game vs Jests, they will win. Phins can rush Fitzpatrick and get sacks, maybe an INT or two. Tannehill having time can pick apart a less than avg NY secondary. Phins win and they will make a run. Phins loss and it's 'here we go again'. The Jests are just not a good team right now.To lose to them screams'neither are you'. It would be very satisfying to beat this team and practically end their season with 6 losses in 9 games. Phins win 20-10. Ground game is again effective, they go 4-4.
