2. Dolphins Will Lose Time Of Possession, Resort To Shootout

Last week against the Seattle Seahawks Miami was able to win the time of possession battle which was one of the big reasons that they kept the score close.

The best way to help a defense that is struggling is to make sure that they do not need to be on the field. The trick will end this week, as the 49er defense will have a better answer and force Miami to take more chances.

The more that Fitzpatrick is forced to throw the ball and put the tam on his shoulders, the more chance there are for errors, especially on a team that is lacking star power.

I think Miami is going to commit several turnovers that will make the time of possession battle impossible to win. Needing to go drive for drive, Miami will need to fore things and end up committing more errors. It is a vicious cycle.
