The Miami Dolphins hit the road as a 1-0 team, as they head north to face the Baltimore Ravens, who are also 1-0. Miami has an opportunity to start the 2022 season 2-0 with a win on Sunday, however, this is a tall order at M&T Bank Stadium where they’re 0-4 since the place was built in 1998.
The last time Miami won in Baltimore was back in October 1997, but a victory would mean Mike McDaniel could list his name next to Jimmy Johnson, as the only Dolphins coaches to start their tenure with the team 2-0.
The Dolphins undoubtedly have last season’s 22-10 Ravens win in mind, and Lamar Jackson likely hasn’t forgotten either. Jackson had never been pressured that much when dropping back to pass in his career, and Miami’s defensive coordinator, Josh Boyer, and staff drew up a gem of a script.
It’s that potential repeat of Boyer’s blueprint, or a similar variation of it, on Sunday, that’s one of the five reasons Miami will beat Baltimore.
