VIDEO PLAYLIST 
| SCOUTING REPORT | ||
Dolphins' D will take aggressive approachMiami played well in interim head coach Jim Bates' debut last week, and it looks to build on that momentum going up against a reeling 49ers club. The Dolphins' quarterback issues continue, as both A.J. Feeley and Jay Fiedler had to leave last week's game with injuries.
Miami hopes Feeley is able to return, but look for the running game to shoulder the bulk of the offensive load regardless of who is under center. The 49ers will counter with a similar game plan, as establishing the running game would take some pressure off QB Tim Rattay and help keep an injury-decimated defense on the sidelines. Will Bates lead the Dolphins to a much-needed win on the road, or will San Francisco's ground game power it to victory? | ||
