Dolphins front seven should be licking their chops and continue on their momentum from last week. If we make them one dimensional passing the ball, they'll be in trouble.

This isn't the same indy offense as last year. Last week they dinked and dunked and played alot of ball control.  New offensive coordinator that Luck had in college and he was known for being conservative there too. This isnt the 2012 Colts offense that threw it alot

I think people often get too caught up in how teams do in week one when projecting how they'll do for the entire season. Week one is the "get out there and knock the rust off" game, and it often bears little resemblance to how a team will look the rest of the season.

I remember Luck carving up Miami's pass defense pretty good last year. THAT is the Colts team I fear Miami will run into this week.

Specifically, Luck set a record against MIA last year for most passing yards by a rookie QB.

So yeah, I'd hope we don't see the 2012 Colts offense.

I mean its possible but I don't think we will see that kind of game. This is a totally different offense from last year. New assistants, new play-caller, totally different style of offense. Luck could just take over the game, he is that good, but I don't know if we will see that type of offensive Indy team from last year this weekend.

Hopefully we'll pound Luck into the dirt.

Vick Ballard tore his ACL and is out for the year.  And Bradshaw is coming off an injury he had all presesaon and has been limited up until now. Indy is gonna throw a lot this week.
