Matt Moore likely to start at QB for Miami Dolphins vs

January 05 07:32 2017

The New England Patriots closed out the regular season with a 35-14 victory over the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, FL. Receivers are sometimes the last players to associate with being a team player, but Brown has made some big strides in recent years when it comes to the way he approaches the game. That leaves Moore to start the first playoff game of his nine-year career in the NFL. Though he missed only the final series of the first half, he was largely ineffective then underwent outpatient arthroscopic surgery two days later. “We’ll have better idea, especially once we hit Wednesday, but probably Tuesday, I’ll have a good idea so gameplan-wise we can figure out what’s going on”.

“Largely I think their personality remains the same”, Tomlin said.

“But if he’s not ready to go we’re not going to just put him out there and put him in harm’s way”. The third of those games will be held at 1:o5 pm EST on Sunday, and will see the Miami Dolphins travel to Pennsylvania to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers.

“They’ve definitely evolved, but so have we”, Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin said. “No, it was very real”.

After beginning the year 1-4, Gase implemented wholesale changes to the offensive line on the fly, along with inserting running back Jay Ajayi into the starting lineup.

“It’s really a big gray area right now for us because [doctors] can’t necessarily say, ‘OK, we’re good to go, and just see how it goes along through the week, ‘ ” Gase said. There’s little reason to think Bell won’t completely torch Miami on Sunday, and if that happens the Dolphins will have little chance at pulling off the upset. Roethlisberger has an 11-6 postseason record with two Super Bowl victories.

Of the 512 team games played this season (Note: There are 256 games each National Football League season, but all 32 teams play 16 games, which gives us 512 team games.) there were 260 100-plus rushing performances. “Our players on defense should be proud, because one of the reasons why he’s getting that opportunity is they played well”. Staying healthy is such a key component to that.

Gase named Moore the starter, but he did leave a slither of hope for Tannehill to potentially do his best Willis Reed impression this weekend. The converted defensive lineman is an old-school head knocker who will be asked to clear a path for RB Le’Veon Bell.

The game kicks off at 1 p.m.

Veteran backup Matt Moore has played well in Tannehill’s absence, throwing eight touchdown passes and three interceptions. “I know what his focus is”.

Said Pouncey: “Trust me, my brother down there, he’s already talking about that cold weather whether he’s playing or not”.

Sunday, the Miami Dolphins will renew a playoff rivalry against the Pittsburgh Steelers – one that has had “super” results for the victor. I’m going to be pumped and I need that. “I need to know what his movement skills are, where we are as far as the structure of his knee and things like that”. I don’t want any setbacks.

What the Miami Dolphins have done this season is nothing short of extraordinary. “Now we’ve got to go up there and beat them in the cold”.

Ndamukong Suh: He’s big, strong and extremely volatile.
