MIKE’S SHOOTIN’ SHACK
Solid preseason offers hope for running game
How unlikely would it be if the answer to the Dolphins running game concerns is a former seventh-round pick in his third season out of Washington who was the last of 25 running backs taken in the 2019 draft?
Head coach Brian Flores talks about Tua Tagovailoa, Jaylen Waddle, the offensive line, the running back situation, and more:
Coach speak Brian Flores
How good can the defense be?
Had it not been for the Miami Dolphins’ defense last season, they would not have won 10 games.

Who is calling the plays?
The Miami Dolphins have struck out the last two seasons at hiring the right offensive coordinator for their football team.
Running back by committee in 2021
Many Miami Dolphins fans do not like to admit that head coach Brian Flores operates under the “Patriot Way” more times than not. That is not necessarily a bad thing, but obviously, Dolphins fans have a hard time accepting anything Patriots-related.

Buffalo has their future QB...do the other teams?
Deiter hoping to deliver at center
The center position was one of the most significant question marks for the Miami Dolphins heading into the 2021 season. After losing 2020 starting center Tedd Karras to the New England Patriots in free agency, Miami needed to find someone to replace his 16 starts.

6MM ARC
After using a 6.5 Grendel to cull a goodly number of Texas feral hogs, I’ve developed a great deal of respect for the cartridge. This has mostly involved nighttime forays shooting with thermal imaging optics. The 2.26-inch confines inherent to AR-15 magazines, and the Grendel’s limited case capacity, make 123- to 130-grain bullets the practical upper limit for such activities. These projectiles chug along at around 2,350/2,450 feet per second (fps), but deliver well out of proportion to its diminutive size.
Time to take stock of Tua
The Dolphins quarterback showed improvement in his second camp, but the question remains as to how big a jump he can make in 2021
.240 WEATHERBY MAGNUM
The .240 Weatherby Magnum gets little respect. Knowledgeable varmint hunters will spend a lot of dough to build up a custom 6mm-284 or one of the variations of the 6mm-06 wildcat rounds to get the ballistic features already available in a .240 Weatherby Magnum factory rifle: flat trajectory, good performance in wind and the ability to anchor larger game more reliably if called upon to do so.

TRAINING CAMP DIARY
6MM CREEDMOOR
The 6mm Creedmoor was designed for long-range target shooting with long and skinny, heavy-for-caliber bullets that slip through the air with the greatest of ease. Wind affects these bullets little; they just fly right through it, almost unaffected.
Biegel back with a new perspective
Instead of playing linebacker for the Miami Dolphins last season, Vince Biegel spent Sundays with his leg propped up and daughter on his knee.
.243 WINCHESTER
The idea was simple enough: Friend Cole Bender from PROOF Research offered to rebarrel my Winchester Model 770 .243 Winchester, a rifle I hadn’t shot in years. When returned, I would have a heavy-barreled .243 Winchester to replace my beloved Remington 700 BDL Varminter that was sold to pay some emergency debt long ago forgotten. I can say this rebarreled 770 will never replace that old Remington, but it has the potential to do some very useful things in the field.
