Miami Dolphins Mailbag: Malik Willis, Kenneth Walker, and how bad are the Dolphins
A late release for our Week 3 mailbag.
MIAMI GARDENS, FL - SEPTEMBER 27 - The Phinsider Mailbag opened up this morning to address fan inquiries regarding the Miami Dolphins, following their Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The main topics included Malik Willis' development, Kenneth Walker's impact, and the effectiveness of the Dolphins' pass rush.
Malik Willis, the Dolphins' rookie quarterback, is still adjusting to the role after having just half a season of experience in the NFL. Coach Mike McDaniel is encouraging him to trust his instincts and instincts, rather than holding onto the ball too long. Willis is learning when to tuck the ball and use his legs to help the offense, rather than constantly trying to throw.
Kenneth Walker III, the Dolphins' star running back, has been a standout performer this season. However, the Chiefs recognize that his injury history limits his workload. Rookie running back Emmett Johnson may see more action in this game to keep Walker fresh.
The Dolphins' pass rush has been struggling so far this season. With only one sack to date, the team is the only one without a sack in the league. Coach Mike McDaniel is hoping that the return of Chop Robinson, who missed last week's game, will help improve the pass rush. The Dolphins have a long way to go before their pass rush is considered historically bad, but they will need to find a way to get after the quarterback if they hope to improve their season.
