Featured writer for Sideline Report

Today, we should discuss the Miami Dolphins.

Can the Dolphins finally make the playoffs?

Things to consider:

Has this OL improved enough to keep Tanny alive in 2014?

Does Moreno provide a spark to a once proud rushing team?

Can Wallace actually begin to earn his paycheck?

Does Tanny make the expected step forward, or does this season spell the end of his tenure in Miami?

Is Philbin alive? Does his heart beat? Does he have any ideas?

Will losing Soliai hurt the run defense?

Enjoy the weekend!
