The Miami Dolphins will have their hands full once again in Week 4 as, for the fourth consecutive week, they take on an unbeaten opponent. This time, they head to Minneapolis to take on the Vikings.
Kevin O’Connell’s team has had a herky-jerky start to the season, losing starting QB Kyler Murray to a concussion early in Week 1 which caused him to miss Week 2 as well. Then, when Murray returned in Week 3, star wide receiver Justin Jefferson injured his ankle. While the Vikings’ offense is something of an unknown quantity due to the injuries, their defense has been every bit as tenacious as the league has come to expect, with Defensive Coordinator and former Miami Dolphins Head Coach Brian Flores sending a blitz on nearly 70% of defensive snaps.
The Dolphins meanwhile are coming off their best showing of the young season, holding the Kansas City Chiefs to within a single score until late in their Week 3 matchup. Miami has injury woes of their own, having lost star running back De’Von Achane to season-ending ACL injury, but they showed a firy spirit and will hope that the lessons learned thus far can lead the way to a surprising result on the road in Week 4.
Aaron and Josh are back to discuss all of this an more on another fun episode of THE SAME OLD DOLPHINS SHOW at DolphinsTalk.com!
