Will the Dolphins return to .500 on Sunday?
Phinsider Radio show notes for Wednesday, Sept. 29, 2021.
Final thoughts on the Raiders
- Byron Jones played well and has all season long. And although we speculated how the Dolphins might stop Las Vegas’ star Tight End it was the former safety Byron Jones that was tasked with the challenge.
Thought we really saw what makes Byron Jones special yesterday. Darren Waller had his lowest yardage output since Week 11 last season. PFF had Jones on Waller most of the game and the All-Pro TE had just 3 for 39 on five targets against Jones.

- Playerprofile has his numbers at the year for 9/19 for 117 yards.
- Joe Schad asked earlier today who is Miami’s second-best player is on the roster. I was torn between Ogbah and maybe Gesicki, but it’s got to be Byron Jones, right?
Offensive struggles
% of Offensive Plays run inside of the red zone through three weeks:

- Bottom: SEA 8.3% MIA 7.5% JAX 6.5% CIN 6.1% NYJ 4.9%
Each week comes with more rumors
- Ross reports about Watson come out.
- Now reports are saying that Flores wanted Herbert but was overruled.
- Will the front office or even coaching staff start to panic?
- Say they split the Bucs and Colts, 2-3 with Tua back, can they rebound the season?
We answer your questions
David (@cheda7) — Now the Sun Sentinel is getting in the act of declaring the Dolphins took the wrong QB over Herbert. Isn’t it still too soon to make that judgment? Seems they are ready to put him in the HOF.
Marek @Mbrave13 — Given Flores’ history of pulling Tua in favor of Fitzpatrick last season, how short do you feel Tua’s leash will be after he comes back from IR if Jacoby plays well over the next two weeks?
Ian @dolphins_carter — Do you think we really need to be concerned about the ability of our coaches? Including our Head Coach!! #phinsiderradio
Rob @robcarruth — Why has this team not been able to figure out how to get a good OL for what seems decades?
