Miami Dolphins Depth Chart

Hello, and welcome to another edition of ‘Live-Blogging Shish on Professional Football’. This Afternoon, it is Kansas City Chiefs taking on Miami Dolphins.

Chiefs head back to the stadium, where they won last year’s Super Bowl. Today, they get to play the host team of that Super Bowl, the Miami Dolphins.

This will be a test for the Miami Dolphins’ Defense, who is 2nd in points allowed. As they take on a Chiefs team who is 2nd in points scored.

The matchup that could happen today between the receivers and defensive backs will be between Chiefs Wide Receiver Tyreek Hill against Xavien Howard. Hill is one of the league leaders in receiving, while Howard leads the league in interceptions.

Then the other question when Chiefs Offense and Dolphins Defense takes the field, will be who will cover Travis Kelce between the Dolphins Linebackers and/or Safeties? There are some options with the Dolphins including Kyle Von Noy or Andrew Van Ginkel as two options.
​
Now when Dolphins Offense and Chiefs Defense takes the field, the question there will be will Tua Tagovailoa lead the Dolphins to score more points than when Patrick Mahomes and company take the field? Also, will the Dolphins be able to establish some sort of running game against Chiefs Defense?
 
It is Kansas City Chiefs taking on Miami Dolphins, coming up shortly.

Chiefs are in their road white jerseys, red pants and helmets. Dolphins are in their throwback aqua jerseys, white pants and helmets.

Final Thoughts:
Chiefs found out that Dolphins Defense can force turnovers and Tua is a gifted quarterback. However, Dolphins had injury problems with their skill players and Kyle Von Noy. And when you play a team like the Chiefs, health is one of the key factors of beating a defending Super Bowl Champ. 

With the win, Chiefs clinched the AFC West for the fifth consecutive time. While the Dolphins loss, could move them out of the playoff spots pending on the results of Colts/Raiders and Ravens/Browns. 

Chiefs will head to New Orleans, to face the Saints. While Dolphins stay home to take on the Patriots. Both games are Next Sunday.
