Miami Dolphins Vs. Philadelphia Eagles Week 6 2023: Your Game Predictions That Hit!

Well, that was quite ugly on many fronts. There are multiple reasons that our Miami Dolphins dropped this week's game to the Philadelphia Eagles. Yes, the refs in that game should be ashamed of their work. The NFL should be embarrassed by the display of WTF ever that was that we saw Sunday night and need to find a way to immediately address the obvious issues with officiating league-wide this season. While I don’t believe that you can hang a loss on how a game is called it does matter when most games at the NFL level are decided by no more than 3 to 5 plays. Even still, you have to overcome those things because they will unfortunately happen, even in the best-officiated games.

The other glaring issue was all the key injuries to players affecting both sides of the ball. The OL was not great but half the line was on the sidelines or the locker room. The secondary was already banged up coming in and only took a bigger hit. The loss of Long, who was playing really well hurt as did the loss of Waddle for a period of the game. The offense is just flat-out better when you have to account for Waddle and HIll at the same time. But, once again, you have to be able to overcome these issues. Every team in the NFL has a varied level of injuries at this point in the season. If our depth is not there at these points in the season it's on our front office/coaching staff.

Last, but most important is the fact that the Dolphins just did not look like they were in sync at times and just did not play well for the entirety of the game. There were far too many sloppy plays by Miami and you just can not have those against a top team in the NFL. If you don’t bring your A-game when you play a top 5 team you will lose almost every time. This team is still growing and much of the defense is still learning Vic’s defense but they need to work harder on being more consistent on every single down no matter the situation or the opponent.

Okay, that’s enough of my rant! Thankfully my Texas Rangers gave me something to smile about...for now...

Below we will take a look at some of your predictions and see who “hit” or came close with their predictions for the Miami Dolphins last game-

David7777 was close on at least a couple of the stars of the game. If nothing else Berrios showed that he is a legit threat as a returner and was fearless and hitting it hard all night long. Phillips was just flat-out a beast in this game. He had a sack as well as 7 tackles, 5 of those solo!

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on offense? Berrios

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on defense? Phillips

Alpha6 also saw Phillips having a great game and called the pick-six. Jerome Baker, besides having the 22-yard pick-6 return also tallied 11 tackles, 6 solo.

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on defense? J Phillips

What other bold prediction do you have for this week’s game? Defense pick 6

DolphinsKings1 had Berrios and Phillips as big contributors in this game.

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on offense? Berrios

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on defense? - Phillips

Phinsox called the win for the Eagles, Hurts being one of the stars for the Eagles, the Eagles having a day sack-wise (4 sacks and many more pressures), and Chubb as a star for our defense! Bradley Chubb ended the game with 2 sacks and 7 tackles, 5 solo.

Eagles win

Hurts stars on offense, Eagles DL via sacks & Chubb star on defense.

Going for it on 4th down will be the norm in this game.

Molly Polly II predicted a big game for JP!

3) Phillips

SuperG! saw Chubb’s big game coming!

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on defense? Chubb

Call_for_the_Priest’77 was also dead on with Chubb and even called the over on his sacks in the game!

DEF Star: B. Chubb (Getting better every week, Chubb unloads his frustrations on Hurts, 1.5+ sacks)

SlayerNation1 saw the loss coming!

PHI 34 - MIA 31, I hope I am wrong but, MIA hasn’t been ready for primetime games.

wolfpack1 called the loss as well as the Eagles' total number of points.

Dolphins defense doesn’t hold up well against good teams. Eagles 35, Dolphins 21.

They are gonna Hurts us Sunday night. I think he rebounds from last week and the Dolphins will have to play catch up.

Yarganaught was correct on the INT but fell one short on the sacks.

What other bold prediction do you have for this week’s game? Fangio dials up the blitz, generating 4 sacks and 1 INT.

TheRoo1 called the loss by the Phins and Tua to Hill for a touchdown

Whoever has the ball last will likely win, I’m guessing Filthy, by 2. 30-28

Tua to Hill for at least one score

Jef1651 predicted a Philly win and Long being a star of the game. Long was playing really well before leaving the game with an injury. I hope the rest of the prediction comes true!!!

Eagles win.

Long Jr

This is a good final loss for the Dolphins. Early, non-conference, away, quality opponent, missing multiple impact players. After this loss, the Phins should start ascending.

fish phins saw the great game from Phillips coming!

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on defense? Phillips will be going against backup offensive linemen and will be on or around Hurts all night.

MiMiami called the Eagles win and AJ Brown’s great game (10 rec/137 yds/1 td).

Who is going to win straight up? Eagles

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on offense? AJ Brown

EzDz73 hit on Chubb's big game and the turnover forced by the defense.

Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on defense? Chubb
