Certain aspects of the game I think could help the bills facing the fins this weekend. (a spin on things)
Heat- It was hot. For the players, playing in Jacksonville will help them prepare or get them in the right mindset of what to expect in Miami and make the proper preparations. Just because it's a night game, doesn't mean it won't be humid.
Run D. Facing Taylor shows that we need to work on our run D if we are to stop RW. If RW is successful, he could wear out our D with the humidity being a factor in aiding RW. There are no if's and but's. Control RW and force Fiedler to throw.
Running the ball- so we weren't successful. Our OL will need to open holes for henry in order to open up the passing game. Vinny shreded the fins D despite Martin's lack of success running the ball. . After 2 games, the fins hasn't shown that both their cb's are probowl material w/o their pass rush. They are weak at that spot when Jason Taylor and co. are not able to put pressure on the qb.
So we ran the ball 32 times. D's play the run against Holmes and yet cannot stop him despite obvious run plays.
21 for 26 yards should get Henry pumped to redeem himself especially with McGAhee breathing down his neck. I'm looking for him to have a great game against the fins.
I also watched the KC game and what I've noticed w/ Holmes is that he takes his time and looks for the opening. He doesn't just attck the line but waits for the hole to develop.
What we know about our team.....
Pass rush- I believe Winfield and Clements can shut down Miami's wr's . Our lb's should be able to blitz Fiedler all day/night as long as we don't overpursue their run game. We have so much speed we even outran the ball at times. :D
If the fins stack the DL like Jacksonville did, they will pay. I doubt they will try to do the same thing the Jags did. If the play the pass, we should burn them w/ the run like we did last Dec. This is why our running game needs to pick up.
Spikes has to formally introduce himself to Fiedler. We need to keep him in the pocket like we did Brunell and not scramble for 1st down. Milloys familiarity w/ the fins should help us out too.
