Fins-Browns Predictions!!!

I figured I might as well take the initiative this time

There have been two 30-24 OT games in the history of this series. This will be the third...and the Fins will win

the Brown have an average margin of defeat of 6 points in their 5 losses, but throw out that 23 point surprise loss to the Patriots and they have an average of 2 point losses. Needless to say, the Browns play a lot of close games. you know who wins a lot close games (closer than they should be) - the Miami Dolphins. i'm done with thinking (hoping) both Miami's offense and defense show up on the same day. even predicting a 4 point Dolphin win seems like going out on a ledge - so i ain't doing it. Phins by 1.

Miami - 28
Cleveland - 27

Cleveland's D sucks, Miami's D sucks. Cleveland's offense can't throw the ball but can run, Miami's offense can throw the ball but can't run.

But there's this:

Away:

- 138.2 Rushing YPG
- 256.4 Passing YPG

- 0 turnovers

A tale of two defenses

The Dolphins are at home, and Tua is on fire. I'm going 31-13 Dolphins. Big games from Wilson and Chubb in front of their new home crowd.

BTW - it will be interesting to see how Myles Garrett does against our suddenly great pass protecting OL.

This is another game that could go either way, but if the Dolphins normal Home Defense shows up, it shouldn't be that close IMO.

I think it's gonna come down to how well the Phins stop the Browns rushing attack. Or how well Chubb does against Chubb!!

I can't believe DF316 missed THAT softball??

I am gonna predict a Dolphins victory, but it would not surprise me to see this game be far closer than it should. As well as the Offense looks at times, when they flip the switch then they can look as bad as moldy cottage cheese with fungal sprouts! We saw it at the end of the Bears game.

I agree with JMP; it would be nice to see the Phins Offense and Defense BOTH have solid, complete games at the same time...finally.

Amen to that!

Start My Predictions with Me having to Work on Sunday.

Fins- 31
Browns- 24

Going to be a Hot 84 Degree Day and I expect Browns to Run a lot with a Couple Qb Designed Runs since Dolphins Struggled with Last Week.

It has been so Easy to Throw the Ball in our Offense we forget about the Run and I’m Hoping this Week for about 30 Runs.

The entire Dolphin's team should come out wearing robes and flip flops with Watson on the back.

Now that's funny right there!

30-17. Miami. Miami's offense is improving with every game. Takes to me to familiarize what you're doing. Also, offensive lines protect franchise quarterbacks better than non franchise quarterbacks. There was an article about that earlier this year. Tua has developed into a franchise QB this year.

40-10.

Miami's rush defense agaist RB's is pretty good. Against QB's not so much. It's not like Jacoby Brissett is a burner.

Great point. This OL has been fantastic with Tua behind center, especially the last few games. With Skylar and Teddy at QB...not so much.

Cleveland will try to shorten the game. It won’t work. Miami 34 Cleveland 20

Defense making Brisset look like Dan Marino

All you guys who predicted an easy win look like geniuses. It's about time

It was a close one, but Hal wins the thread--each team had only 9 drives.

I predicted 40-10 does that count?

You and Hal came the closest to the correct score for both teams, missing by just 8 combined points.
