Miami's Week 1 loss vs. Indianapolis exposed systemic issues but also a clear path to improvement. De’Von Achane flashed big-play potential (7 carries for 55 yards, 7.9 ypc) before the game script dried him up; the run game could become Miami’s backbone if the line settles. Tua Tagovailoa faced a stifling pocket, underscoring why the offense leaned on misdirections and two-high defenses that disrupted timing. The pass rush failed to pressure, allowing Daniel Jones to sit comfortably. If McDaniel fixes alignment, pre-snap chaos, and leans into the run when feasible, fantasy managers can expect a sharper Week 2, especially against New England.
