A pivotal matchup between the Miami Dolphins and the Philadelphia Eagles is quickly approaching on Sunday night football. With the Dolphins boasting an impressive 5-1 record, questions loom about their ability to prove themselves against more formidable opponents. We dive into Miami's journey thus far and the challenges presented by a tough Eagles team, examining whether the Dolphins have what it takes to assert their position as a true contender in the league.

We begin the show with a quick look at the injury report before exploring how the Dolphins can avoid disaster against Philadelphia's disruptive defensive front — could we see Chase Claypool make an appearance? The Dolphins are without rookie running back De'Von Achane, but it sounds like Jeff Wilson Jr. will be activated from injured reserve for the game.

Miami's defense is one of the best at getting to the quarterback, why hasn't it felt that way through six games? Can Miami's pass rush contain quarterback Jalen Hurts, or will they take the cheese while he runs wild in the secondary?
