When will we see one? Tua isn't mobile and has rushed for about as many yards as Jimmy. People are making up stuff about the Dolphins at this point.
Right. Tua isn't a scrambler. He's really accurate on long passes though so they need to get a lot of pressure on him. I doubt our DBs can keep u with Hill and Waddle.
He's not a scrambler, but the dude is actually mobile "inside the pocket". He's shown numerous times that he can buy time and make throws off script.
But both starting tackles are out, correct? That favors us.
Big time! Their OL looked night and day different after those two injuries.
Those injuries will surely help, but never underestimate Mcdaniel, he will find some workaround to make up for their losses in the trenches, guaranteed.
Its like McDaniel is Walsh reincarnated and we are coached by the 3 stooges. Its a wonder if Ryans will even get them in 3rd down. If Shanahan can call a play that will even gain a yard. Geniuses that Dolphins staff.
"I can remember Walsh lying down in the middle of the floor," recalled 49ers cornerback Dwight Hicks, "and he just started rumbling on and on about Miami. 'Oh, they have such great offense. Oh my god, how are we going to stop them? And geez, their defense, and the Killer Bees, how are we going to be able to get a first down, or even a yard.'
For the 49ers are gonna have to win the turnover battle, plain and simple. For the Dolphins, if they can constantly get good field position, the 49ers defense will be in trouble.
Tua is accurate & very good this season, Hill is a top WR, Waddle is a top WR. Their coach calls plays that seem to get the best out of these three. Dolphins will score points, most likely > 25
The 49ers struggle to score points against good teams. The Dolphins passing defense: bottom 10, but the 49ers passing attack is limited. The Dolphins rushing defense is top 10 (much better than the Saints), 49ers rush a lot. Given this, the Dolphins defense can be considered "good against the 49ers".
The 49ers need a great effort from the defense again, Jimmy G. no INTs, offense scores at least 4 TDs, Gould at his best, and need at least 1+ turnovers. Too much to ask? don't know, we'll see.
