Browns vs. Dolphins: 3 offensive players to watch on Miami
The Cleveland Browns defense will have their plates full a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving as they take on a high-octane Miami Dolphins offense.
Week 10 will be quite an interesting one for the Cleveland Browns as they travel down to Miami for a pivotal matchup with the Dolphins. A win will go a long way as the clock keeps ticking down until the debut of Deshaun Watson in Week 13. A loss won’t be a season-ending one, but it will no doubt hurt any potential playoff hopes.
The Dolphins are loaded offensively and the defense will have their hands full to try and stop them. If they play anywhere near the level they did in Week 8 against the Bengals, this will be a winnable game. One of the three big storylines this week is whether or not the Cleveland defense can stop the Miami offense.
Normally, Dawg Pound Daily takes a look at three-to-five players from the opposing team, but this week, the focus will be on offensive players from the Dolphins.
Here are three offensive players to watch on the Dolphins in Week 10.
3 offensive players for the Browns to watch against Dolphins in Week 10
No. 3: Jaylen Waddle, Wide Receiver
For the 2022 season, Jaylen Waddle has been sensational, but not the best wide receiver on his team. More on that later. What he has become though, is the best No. 2 option in the NFL.
Through the first nine games of the season, Waddle has compiled 47 catches for 812 yards and six touchdowns. Normally, that would be good enough for WR1 on any given team up to this point of the season. That is a good problem for the Dolphins to have and something the Browns defense will need to be cautious of.
Rookie Martin Emerson will likely draw this coverage and he has been pretty, pretty, pretty good as a first-year player. He will need to continue to play well to help slow down Waddle and get him off of his routes. Emerson played a big role in the Browns 32-13 victory over the Bengals in Week 9, allowing Tee Higgins to catch two passes for eight yards when guarding him.
