The Miami Dolphins are hitting the road again to take on the Chicago Bears on Sunday at Solider Field, as Mike McDaniel’s team looks to improve their record to 6-3.
Miami is entering this game having won their last two matchups, defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Lions in recent weeks. Having Tua Tagovailoa back has really helped this offense get back on track, but the loss of starting left guard Liam Eichenberg in Week 8 could be an issue going forward.
On the other side, Justin Fields and the Chicago Bears have been an up-and-down offense so far in 2022. With the arrival of Chase Claypool to an offense that could certainly use a weapon in the passing game, many are hoping that the unit can become a little more consistent.
