Week 10
His opponent is not in exactly the same position. The Dolphins have struggled a lot this season with only two wins. They beat the Patriots by one point in Week 1 and lost seven games in a row and secured their second win last week after beating the one-won Texans.
Brian Flores’ squad almost made it to the playoffs last season, but they still have a lot of holes in their roster until the Bills and the Patriots drop significantly. That said, anything is possible in a short week, so perhaps they present a stronger-than-expected challenge for the Ravens. After all, the NFL has been pretty unpredictable this season.
Who plays week 10
First things first. We don’t know who will be in the center of Miami on Thursday. What we do know is that it will be either Jacobi Brissette or Tua Tagaveloa with a compromised throwing hand.
Baltimore is the obvious straight-up pick (she types in a panic a week after the Jiggs harassed the Bills).
Ravens looks good behind offense QB superstar Lamar Jackson and a backfield that has been spit and 30-year-old with bailing wire. Baltimore averages 27.6 points per game—the seventh-highest in the league—and they have a particular knack for winning from behind.
Jackson has already returned his squad to three double digits this year (not that I’m expecting the Ravens to be down at any point in this game, but maybe I’m still a little intimidated by Week 9) ).
The Dolphins, on the other hand, have struggled aggressively, barring a few good starts from a healthy Tua in the soft matchup. Miami averages only 17.2 points per game — a full 10 fewer points than Baltimore — and we don’t yet know who will be in the QB on Thursday.
Defensively, Baltimore surrendered 24.4 points per game, and allowed big games to Joe Burroughs, Patrick Mahomes and Kirk Cousins. The Ravens have the second most passing yards per game (282.5), and although they limit their opponents’ ground yards per game (fifth-lowest in the league at 91.8), they averaged 9 rushing TDs for more. is allowed. More than one per game.
Ravens
A good reminder for the Ravens not to be complacent here came four days ago when the Jaguars stunned the Bills. Baltimore leads an ultra-tight AFC North, one of two AFC divisions that claim top-to-bottom winning records. There’s no such thing as a win for a 6-2 team, but imagine how big a loss Miami would be if Baltimore found itself battling for a wild-card berth down the stretch. Playing on a shorter week should help grab the Ravens’ attention. The Dolphins broke a seven-game losing streak last week, but there was applause—it only extended an eight-game skid for the Houston Texans. For Miami, the season has reached a play-for-pride stage, with a build toward 2022; The 2-7 team has reached the playoffs only once since 1990.
Here are four things to watch for on Thursday night when the Dolphins host the Ravens:
Humphrey-Waddell matchup one to watch. Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey versus Dolphins rookie wide receiver Jaylen Waddell will be an interesting fight, and one that is likely in Humphrey’s favor. He’s a big, physical corner that excels at bump-and-run coverage and has an easy time obstructing Waddell’s routes, at least. And based on the dolphins’ use of waddles this season, why not press? According to his Next Gen Stats Route chart, Waddell has caught as many passes behind the line of scrimmage (10) as he has for more than 10 air yards. As a result, he averaged just 8.9 yards per catch. Press away, Marlon.
The Ravens Pass crowd is not reaching home. Dolphins’ endangered pass defenses may be getting a much-needed chance to regroup. The Ravens’ pass rush is producing a sack on only 5.08% of pass attempts, ranking 28th in the NFL, and a moderate ranking of 15th in its 55 rushes in the season. What makes a huge blast for a defense isn’t much bang for the buck. Rookie Odafe Oweh led the team with only three sacks, there isn’t even a major rush that leads to consistent double-teaming.
