The Bolts get a little bit of a break on an early game in the Eastern Time Zone. Standard time starts Sunday morning so they get an extra hour. Doubt that will affect the spread much.

Tannehill goes deep on consecutive plays
Posted by Mike Florio on October 27, 2014, 2:50 PM EDT

For most quarterbacks, it’s barely noteworthy. For Ryan Tannehill of the Dolphins, it’s a big deal because it rarely happens.
As noted by Chris Perkins of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, the third-year pass-thrower threw two deep passes on back-to-back plays in Sunday’s 27-13 win over the Jaguars.
It happened in the third quarters, with both balls directed to receiver Mike Wallace. He caught one, for a 50-yard gain.
Tannehill has shied away from throwing the ball deep, and offensive coordinator Bill Lazor in turn hasn’t dialed up many plays that call for it. Which made it odd, to say the least, to have two of them in a row.
Even with the 50-yard bomb, Tannehill still threw for fewer than 200 yards. Removing that play from the equation, and he averaged a paltry 5.2 yards per attempt.
Sure, the Dolphins still won easily. But they’ll need more from Tannehill if they’re going to make a serious run at the postseason.Go Rivers!

Listening to some Miami radio guy on the radio and the team is pretty confident about beating the Chargers this week.

This game is the pivot point of our whole season and with the way that Miami defense is playing it is going to be very tough (not to mention our history there). We may very well look back on this game as the biggest win/loss of the season. Man, I hope we are not flat like we usually are in Miami, but to get up for one game in 23 days is going to be mentally tough for sure. It just has a big fat egg smeared all over it...I'll ride the wave...where it takes me.
