While Gameday preps for a big night in Miami for the Thursday night game between the Dolphins and Bears, there are some interesting questions to be answered.
With key injuries to the QB position for the Fins one would think you should favor the Bears, as Lee Corso would say "not so fast my friend". Tyler Thigpen, Miami's third string QB has the tools to pull out this key Thursday night game. The keys however are not on Tyler, they are on Dan Henning Miami's offensive coordinator. He needs to use a gameplan of three-step drops, play-action passes and lots of wildcat with Ronnie Brown in order to secure a home victory.
The key here is not to let Tyler hurt you, as well as not to let the Bears tee off on your new quarterback and have him make poor decisions. If the Dolphins can keep the Bears guessing and Thigpen can manage the game, the Dolphins can get another much needed W if they want to stay in the hunt of the wildcard spot.
As far as the Bears, they need to take advantage of Channing Crowder. What a bum! If the Bears can isolate him on Forte out of the backfield with screen passes, this could be the most effective way to beat a home team on short rest.
While we will enjoy watching this game live from SunLife Stadium tonight, you can enjoy it as well by taking Miami -1.5 tonight.
