Live blog of Dolphins at KC Chiefs today

Why are you folks sweating today's game against Kansas City? Don't you know it's 8 degrees out there?

Seriously, don't you know the Chiefs have lost 21 of their last 23 games, meaning they find a way to screw things up no matter how hard they try and how hard they work?

Don't you know the Chiefs are about to bring a close on coach Herman Edwards' days in KC? This ESPN report details how KC ownership is in the early stages of a general manager search and already a guy Edwards would love to have hired is out of the running. That means Edwards' chances of keeping his job, with one year remaining on his contract, are not excellent.

And that means the Dolphins, who have already played four teams -- Oakland, St. Louis, San Francisco, and Seattle -- whose teams have changed coaches or are about to change coaches, can add a fifth team to that list today.

[Major side note prediction: The Jets are at Seattle today in what is Mike Holmgren's final home game. He will be coaching against his old QB Brett Favre. I am predicting the Jets, who spent four hours on the runway Friday waiting for a storm to pass before heading on their five-hour flight to the Northwest, are going to LOSE to the 'Hawks today.]

Anyway, today's game is at 1 p.m. eastern. I will inform you quick as I can whether Channing Crowder is playing (it doesn't look good) or not. [Update: Crowder is inactive so he's out.]

The LIVE BLOG begins at kickoff in the comments section. Isn't this what you've waited all week for?

Cold weather takes away offense. Since we have a very basic, no frills offense, that should not hurt us.
Defense keeps us in it.

Prediction: Miami 16 - 6.

Just looked and the temps are 10 in KC now. Feels like minus-7 with wind gusts at 31 MPH.

With the Channing Crowder injury and uncertain status for next year and with Charlie Anderson coming along nicely on the outside, is there a possibility we see some Matt Roth on the inside, get tougher against the run in the middle and give us more speed on the outside with Anderson there

BALL SECURITY!! BALL SECURITY!! BALL SECURITY!!Forget it being 7 degrees @ game time. Protect the ball & clock management along with scoring pts & victory will be ours.

[GreatY2E]

Boomer and Phil Sims are the same person! At least for a while I thought they were....

[Tony T Bone]

[C. Little]

This is not negative, just experience: we MUST now build on this lead, step on their throats & take away their will to play hard. We need a blow-out if possible

[sjs]

oh sure, Ginn underperforms last week to knock me out of the playoffs, then I bench him 5 minutes before kickoff and he scores.

Well, I'll take real Miami playoffs any day.
