I am sure that most of us were hoping for a much more dominant win over the Las Vegas Raiders this past weekend but I will take the win any day over playing fairly well and losing. If this team can cut down on the mental errors, and turnovers and get the run game going I don’t know who could stop this team right now with the defense finally finding their stride.
Below we will take a look at some of your predictions and see who “hit” or came close with their predictions for the Miami Dolphins last game-
Molly Polly II correctly predicted Miami’s defense holding LV to 13 points on the way to the win, Tua having a solid day (28 of 39 for 325 yards, 2 TDs,1 INT, and a 103 QB rating), Phillips as one of the stars with a monster day (6 tackles, 5 solo, 2 sacks, 1 INT), Hill having another great day (10 catches, 146 yards and 1 TD), and the offensive line keeping Crosby in check who was a non-factor for almost all of the game Sunday.
1). Finz Win!
2). 30-13
3). Tua/Hill and Phillips
4). Crosby is a beast but held to zero sacks
PhinFan4Fun saw the Dolphins win coming as well as big days from Hill and Phillips as well as the Hill/Tua combo going over the century mark together again.

Kobe Won Kenobi the visiting slightly disgruntled but respectful Raiders fan was correct. They didn’t look great but they sure as hell didn’t lay the egg that the Broncos did.
Raider fan here,
Just reading the predictions, we may as well not even show up to play.
30-3
35-10
70-20

CJT13 was correct on the win but sadly not on duplicating the Broncos game.
Miami 70 – Raiders 20
SlayerNation1 predicted the win and Phillips having a huge game. While his numbers were slightly off I think we will all take a two-sack, one-INT game any damn time.
Phins win it
Phillips has the best game of 23, 3 sacks, FF
It seems as if we were all more confident that the offense would recover from their hangover in the KC game but alas we struggled again on that side of the ball, mostly due to self-inflicted wounds and lack of a solid/consistent run game. A lot of the predictions did though see the defense continue to play great as they have over the previous couple of games. Thank you to everyone who takes the time every week to take part in our predictions posts. Check back with us on Wednesday evening when we will again have our predictions post for the upcoming Jets game.
