The Dolphins’ Week 1 game plan was clear: stack the box to stop the run and force Kirk Cousins to throw. But the Raiders didn’t break stride—they dominated on the ground with 144 yards, keeping chains moving despite the pressure. Cousins did find the end zone three times, but all via short passes, and only one completion went for over 20 yards. Deep shots? Mostly missed or intercepted. With a clean pocket, you’d expect more aggression—but they held back. Against tougher defenses like the Chargers, this approach might not be enough unless that run game keeps rolling.
