Browns vs Miami...now this could get ugly. Given the performance of Delhomme last week against Carolina, and now facing the Dolphins, with the NFL's 4th ranked passing defense, Cleveland can become one deminsional in a hurry. Peyton Hillis, once again, will be called upon to carry the Browns to victory, against the NFL's 14th ranked rushing defense. Hillis, without a doubt, is a force to be reckoned with, however his style of running gives a pounding, and takes a pounding, with no real threat to spell him.

Daboll is going to have to open up the playbook.The trick plays, along with changing the run, run, pass, punt mentality will have to change, opposing teams are taking notice. The Dolphins will be targeting Hillis, knowing that he is the Cleveland offense. Delhomme will have to play mistake free football, getting help from Robo and Momass.

Tackling by the defense will be paramount with Dolphins runningback tandem Ronnie Brown, and Ricky Williams, not to mention Brandon Marshall and Brian Hartline, both having over 600 yds recieving. The Dolphins rank 14th in passing yds and 19th in rushing yds.

Prediction:

The Browns play a competative game in the first half, mostly on the shoulders of Hillis. The second half will not be so kind, the Offense is nonexistant and the Deffense tires from being on the field for so long--due to the lack of the offense to stay on the field.
