Elevating the Offense: Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's Impact Nov 10, 2023

Show notes

Wide receiver Tyreek Hill is on pace to be the first receiver to reach 1,000 receiving in a season, and Raheem Mostert leads the league with 11 rushing touchdowns. The Miami Dolphins lead the league in points per game, but none of that would be possible without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa lifting the offense to new heights.

We dissect the mechanics and strategies behind Tagovailoa's ability to elevate the skills and confidence of his teammates as a catalyst for Miami's success this season.

Decoding the Miami Dolphins with DVOA Creator Aaron Schatz, Chief Analytics Officer at FTN Network Nov 09, 2023

Show notes

The Miami Dolphins reached the bye week with a record of 6-3 and everyone is wondering how high this team's ceiling could be. Aaron Schatz, chief analytics officer at FTN Network and creator of DVOA (Defense-adjusted Value Over Average), joins the show to share his expectations for the 2023 Dolphins.

We look at Miami's struggles on offense and how things could change moving forward — but will it be for the better? We also hit on the team's defense, which seems to be headed in the right direction in Vic Fangio's first year as defensive coordinator. Aaron leverages statistics in his analysis — especially DVOA, which compares every play to a league-average baseline based on the situation.

Frustration in Frankfurt: Missed Opportunities Doom Dolphins in Loss to Chiefs Nov 06, 2023

Show notes

A 14-point third quarter wasn't enough for the Miami Dolphins to overcome a 21-point deficit to the Kansas City Chiefs in Germany on Sunday. The Dolphins fell to 0-3 against teams with a winning record and struggled to move the football against a stout Chiefs defense. Tyreek Hill struggled most of the afternoon and fumbled right before half — a 14-point swing in favor of Kansas City.

Week 10 is Miami's bye week, meaning they'll stew on this game for two weeks as they prepare for a late-season push toward the playoffs. It wasn't all bad for the Dolphins, Vic Fangio's defense took another step forward by holding quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs to just 14 points on offense. How high is the unit's ceiling?

Defensive Dominance: Vic Fangio's Unit Takes Another Step In The Right Direction Nov 06, 2023

Show notes

The Miami Dolphins are getting healthy on defense and we're starting to see Vic Fangio's vision taking form with a healthy secondary. Xavien Howard and Jalen Ramsey set the tone on the boundary while Jevon Holland and David Long Jr. were tied with a team-high eight tackles on the day.

On top of that, Bradley Chubb continues to be a difference-maker on the edge, forcing a fumble and deflecting a pass in Sunday's loss.

Miami's offense headlined the season's first half but Fangio's defense could steal the show following a Week 10 bye.

Steve Spagnuolo Silences Miami's Offense, Tyreek Hill Drops the Ball Nov 06, 2023

Show notes

Defense coordinator Steve Spagnuolo and Kansas City's defense held quarterback Tua Tagovailoa under 200 passing yards in Sunday's 21-14 victory over the Miami Dolphins. The offense was scoreless in three of four quarters and a Tyreek Hill fumble — it was a harsh Week 9 showing for the unit.

Coach Mike McDaniel is headed back to the drawing board as the Dolphins enter the Bye Week. Is Miami's offense starting to run out of steam after a quick start to the season?
