That will do it for tonight’s coverage. Thanks for joining us, and be sure to check out CBS Sports.com for all of your Week 3 coverage!
That’ll do it. Dolphins get their first win of the 2020 season and do so in impressive fashion. Thanks so much for following along with us tonight and be sure to check out our main takeaways that will be posted above shortly.
And that run by Gaskin should wrap this one up. This is the Dolphins’ first double-digit win since 2017. As Tyler said, Dolphins are doing a lot of things right. They got the perfect balance on offense while getting several key second half turnovers.
You have to feel really encouraged with the direction of the Dolphins. The broadcast is noting how much praise Ryan Fitzpatrick has for Tua. Whenever his time comes under center, he’s going to be adopting a great group of pass-catchers and a well-coach defense. Dolphins are building something solid.
Fitzpatrick has only attempted six passes this half, but he didn’t have to do much work given what he did in the first half and what his defense has been able to do all night. He’s also gotten enough from his running game, which has gained 122 yards on 32 carries.
James Robinson has 329 yards from scrimmage through three games.
That’s the most for an undrafted rookie in his first three career games since 1950.
Jaguars offense found its groove, but are now going to need a stop by their defense. Jacksonville are going to have to contain Myles Gaskin, who has 40 yards on 14 carries and five catches for 29 yards. I also expect to see more Matt Breida, who has just three carries so far. Breida came up with a nice third down conversion on Sunday, taking a quick pitch from Fitzpatrick and getting to the outside. Expect the Dolphins to try to get to the outside again if faced with a similar situation now.
Jaguars defense has played a lot better in this half, with Josh Allen registering his first sack of the season on Miami’s last offensive possession. But is it too little too late? That will likely be the case if the Jaguars can’t score now. Jacksonville will have the ball at their own 49 when the drive begins. Expect more work for Robinson, who has 16 touches for 128 yards thus far.
Looks like Jamal Perry didn’t make a clean catch, so the Jaguars will be looking at a fourth down when play resumes. That incomplete pass could end up being the nail in the coffin if Jacksonville can’t convert here.
Conley was wide open on that second down pass. Yes, Minshew was pressured by Van Not, but that was an easy touchdown pass that would have been a 14-point game heading into the fourth quarter. Minshew 16-of-23 for 153 yards through three quarters. Robinson is still his most productive receiver, with five catches for 73 yards. He’s been the vocal point on this drive.
Flores’ decision to punt on Dolphins’ last possession looking like the right call now. Pinned the Jaguars deep, got a turnover, and now lead 28-7 following Fitzpatrick’s touchdown run. Dolphins coaching staff has done a great job tonight, especially Chan Gailey, who was enjoying retirement before being talked into joining Miami.
