The Miami Dolphins knew there would be growing pains this season. But after an ugly Week 1 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, should Dolphins fans already be worried?
Award-winning columnist Dave Hyde and former Miami Dolphins defender Kim Bokamper break down a frustrating season opener in which the Dolphins were pushed around at the line of scrimmage, struggled to generate a pass rush and hurt themselves with costly penalties, turnovers and major breakdowns on special teams.
So how much of what went wrong can be fixed — and how much points to bigger problems with this young roster?
Dave and Bo examine the good and the bad from Malik Willis’ first meaningful start as Miami’s quarterback, the struggles along both lines of scrimmage and some encouraging performances from a young Dolphins core that included Caleb Douglas, Jacob Rodriguez, Kadyn Proctor and Miami’s rookie defensive backs.
Bo believes this could look like a different football team as the young players gain experience. Dave wonders just how long his Dolphins victory cigar is going to remain unlit.
Plus, Nothing to Hyde goes on the road as Bo delivers the first installment of his NFL press-box food rankings from Las Vegas — including one glaring omission that cost the Raiders some serious points.
It’s only Week 1. But after what we just watched, how worried should Dolphins fans be?
