The Dolphins opened their season in perfect fashion, crushing the Lions 49-21 at Pro Player stadium
QB Great game for Fiedler. He was 18 of 27 for 207 yards, 3 TDs and no INTs. A-
RB Welcome to Miami Mr. Williams. Ricky rushed 20 times for 111 yards and 2 TDs (long of 37). Edwards added another rushing TD. A-
WR It looks as though the Dolphins found their best TE since Keith Jackson. McMichael got his first TD and a few nice catches. Chambers got his first TD and Edwards caught another TD. B+
OL The running game was very good, thanks to the O-line. The key will be injuries because there isn't a lot of depth. Nails had a few great blocks. No sacks for Fielder. A-
DL Nice game. 3 sacks. Chester, Taylor and Burnett got pressure. Ogunleye played very well also. B+
LB The over the middle big plays are troubling. The Dolphins won't face Detroit every week... B-
Secondary A 49 completion is a bad sign. We saw it in the pre season also. Hakim had 100 yards from QB McMahon... Next week the Dolphins face Manning throwing to Harrison and James... C+
Special Teams Good game. They got the TD on the fumble and Royals punted very well. If he continues like this no one will remember Turk. A-
Coaching Good game. Even against Detroit this was an outstanding show. A
