Oh I'm not expecting him to throw for 300 yards and 2 TD's, but he doesn't have to. If he throws for 200 and doesn't throw any INT's, that will be good enough to win the game. Cam was 15-19 with 0 TD's and 0 INT's and ran for 2 TD's last year in the opening game that New England won 21-11. That's all I'm saying.
I think it's pretty unrealistic to think if Mac throws 200 yards and no picks that New England wins.  They would need a number of other things like their run game lighting it up, Tua playing horribly, shut down our run game, multiple turnovers.

Miami just can't afford not to take advantage of this game against New England which on paper suits us - rookie QB first game, early fall and not the snow and ice of late winter...

I really hope we make the most of it and it sets up our season. I still think it will be close-ish...

Two young quarterbacks? Fourteen to ten.  Not sure who wins, though.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not predicting a NE win, I'm merely saying that predicating a win for Miami on Mac Jones starting is flawed in my opinion. Actually I think Miami should win this game, but not because Mac Jones is starting, because I think Miami might have as good of team as New England if not better. Cam Newton starting for New England instead of Mac Jones would not have changed my thinking in any way. Rookie QB's do win in the NFL all the time. Tua won his first start as a Dolphin and in that game he threw for 93 yards.

I think I'm drinking the Kook Aid but I'm fully expecting to win this game.  We were much better than the Pats last year and now they're starting a rookie QB.  It's weird to me that they're favored.

Of course, I'm so used to losing to them historically that it's fucking up my rational brain, but I am going to say 24-21, Miami.

Looks like Dave was the closest. Congrats!

You didn't pick a team to win.  First and foremost you have to pick the winning team.
