Dolphins vs Ravens Preview
Both the Dolphins and Ravens are coming off of convincing wins in week one. The Dolphins handled AFC East Rival New England in a 20-7 win and the Ravens cruised past the Jets 24-9.
One of the most interesting headlines of this matchup is Lamar Jackson’s contract situation. The Ravens failed to reach an agreement on an extension with their star quarterback before the season.
Since then Jackson has liked some social media posts suggesting that he should come home to Miami and play for the Dolphins. Those antics could inspire both quarterbacks in this matchup.
For Jackson, it’s obvious show the Ravens what they want to keep and show the Dolphins what they want. For Tua Tagovailoa he’ll be trying to prove to the Dolphins that don’t need another quarterback all season.
Now to the onfield part of the matchup, the defenses were impressive for both teams in their week one matchups as they held their opponents to single-digit scoring outputs. The Dolphins were able to force three turnovers and the Ravens forced two.
Both teams were stout against the run as the Ravens held the Jets to just 83 yards rushing and the Dolphins held the Patriots to just 78 yards. There might be some early season concerns in the secondary for Baltimore as they allowed 297 yards passing to Joe Flacco last week.
Offensively the two teams had similar days as well with the Dolphins logging 307 yards of total offense last week while the Ravens had 274 yards. Both teams did most of their damage through the air as Tua passed for 270 yards and Jackson threw for 213 yards.
With both teams struggling to establish much of a run game in week one it looks like this game could be determined by a couple of factors, quarterback play, and secondary play. Whichever quarterback makes the fewest mistakes and which secondary causes the most mistakes could directly impact the outcome of this game.
The Ravens defense will also have to be prepared for whatever wrinkles new Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel will throw at them. This has all the makings of a great matchup and should be one of the better games in week two.
