Over at the Buc 'Em blog The Bull Gator posted the team fantasy predictions for the Buccaneers. It was such a top job that I thought I'd do the same for our Miami Dolphins. What better way to see what the ESPN Fantasy Football 'gurus' think our Fins will do.

Team Statistics

Passing  - 3470 yards, 19 TDs, 14 INTs

Rushing - 2026 yards, 10 TDs

Receiving - 3404 yards, 18 TDs

Note: Added them up, 66 yards 1 TD are unaccounted for meaning Turner, Hartline, London or other receiver contributions.

Miami's 10th ranked (3,362 yards) pass attack last year does not take much of hit (-162 yards) as our 11th ranked (1897 yards) rushing attack improves by 129 yards. Miami's offense trades passing yards for rushing yards to maintain the same level of performance, yardage wise, as last year. The negative to this predicted future is that turnovers go up, TDs stay the same as Chad Pennington steps aside, for whatever reason, as Chad Henne lines up behind center for an underwhelming stat line. The positive outlook on this view is that Pat White comes in and plays great for what limited time he is in.

Our wide receivers still underperform as none reach the 1,000 yard marker. Ted Ginn Jr. comes within 191 yards at 809 yard. Camarillo and Bess improve with the usual accurate conservative spread it round play of Chad Pennington. The runningbacks also get involved in the passing games amassing around 500 yards.

Our defense rank is hard to evaluate because it includes special team and defensive touchdowns plus how well we prevent other teams from scoring. Either way Miami is ranked 10 in points and 8th overall in defense.

Overall it looks like Miami is slated to perform better in the running game, slightly more turnovers in the passing, with good defensive performance. Solid looking numbers for Miami.

Too bad it means nothing.

All right, Miami. What say you?
