The Miami Dolphins are set to face off against the Washington Commanders in a historic NFL regular-season game in Madrid, Spain on Sunday. The match will be broadcast on the NFL Network at 9:30 a.m. EST. Despite being the underdogs, the Commanders, who have struggled this season with five consecutive losses, are determined to turn their fortunes around. However, they will be without two of their key players, quarterback Jayden Daniels and wide receiver Terry McLaurin, who are both out due to injuries. The Dolphins, on the other hand, are looking strong, having beaten the Buffalo Bills last week. They will be hoping to replicate their impressive performance against the Commanders, who have struggled to contain their opponents' running backs this season. Miami's versatile running back, De'Von Achane, has been in top form, topping 90 scrimmage yards in four consecutive games. He will be a key player to watch in this match, as he takes on the Commanders' struggling defense. The Dolphins' head coach, Mike McDaniel, has expressed his optimism about the team's chances, citing their strong performance in international games in the past. The team has a history of success in Spain, having won four American Bowl games held in the country between 1986 and 2003. The match will be played at the iconic Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, home to Real Madrid CF, and will be a significant milestone in the NFL's efforts to expand its global reach. The Dolphins are currently ranked seventh in the league in short-yardage third down conversions and eighth in red zone defense. Their offense has been led by quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who has a passer rating of third in the NFL in the red zone. The Commanders, on the other hand, have struggled to contain their opponents' offenses, allowing an average of 28 points per game. They will be looking to their backup quarterback, Marcus Mariota, to lead them to victory. The match promises to be an exciting one, with both teams looking to make a statement in this historic game. Will the Dolphins be able to contain the Commanders' struggling defense, or will the Commanders be able to turn their fortunes around and pull off an upset? The world will be watching as these two teams clash in the first-ever NFL game played in Spain.
