With that in mind I asked the following question last evening:What will you be looking for from our Miami Dolphins this coming Friday evening when they take on the Washington Commanders in their first preseason contest? What will you be looking for from specific individual players, the Dolphins’ offensive and defensive units, and the team/coaching staff as a whole?Below are some of your thougths and answers-THEphinz says just don’t get anyone hurt!The only thing im looking is the team to stay healthy. Generic, vanilla preseason games mean nothingheatforlife has some concerns about the OL it seems.ill be focused on our sorry ass g from last year moves over to rg that smells bad to me.worse guard play for a yearin history of this once proud org.sad whats happened here since steve took over. It seems like yesterday when cosell was saying the the miami dolphins winningest org in the nfl in shulas daysezdz73 can hopefully report back as to how we looked in live action.I’ll be at the preseason game.

But to answer the question I would hope to see some chemistry between Willis and the receivers and see how the OL holds against what appears to be a decent pass rush. Also interested in the pass coverage.PantherPaw wants to see the OL play with an agressive stule and how the backup RB’s and LB’s look.Looking for a no quit attitude in the run game…cut the OLine loose to be as aggressive as possible and force the run. Show the players that anything less than outright ag
