The Splash Zone 10/15/22: Previewing Vikings/Dolphins Week Six Matchup

After starting 3-0, the Miami Dolphins are looking to get back on track this Sunday when they take on the Minnesota Vikings. It’s going to be a tough task for the Dolphins as they will be starting Skylar Thompson at quarterback and the team is still dealing with some injuries. We saw Thompson play last week against the New York Jets, but for this game, he will actually have had practice as the starting quarterback. Perhaps that will make a little difference for the offense and maybe Mike McDaniel has some tricks up his sleeves.

You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
