The Miami Dolphins are in for a tough challenge on Saturday.
They’ll have to go into a hostile environment at Arrowhead Stadium to play in Kansas City’s blistering cold, all while being down nine starters.
Nonetheless, NFL analyst Craig Carton believes they shouldn’t panic.
Instead, he predicted the Dolphins to upset the Kansas City Chiefs on the road and said Chiefs fans should absolutely be panicking right now (via The Carton Show).
Should the #Dolphins hit the Panic Button?

Carton acknowledged that things don’t look good for Mike McDaniel’s team right now, but he believes that the Dolphins will grow and be extra motivated by this underdog role, especially considering how little faith the public seems to have in them.
Then again, it’s not like the people are just hating on the Dolphins.
They went 1-5 vs. playoff teams this season, with their only win coming against the Dallas Cowboys, a team that struggles mightily on the road.
The Dolphins had multiple chances to secure the AFC East division and make sure to stay in Southern Florida for the first two rounds of the playoffs, but they collapsed towards the end of the season and have now put themselves in this tough spot.
And while this Chiefs team has been hard to trust throughout the course of the season, they will be at home, well rested, confident, and they know how to play in that kind of weather.
The Dolphins do have enough talent to get past the Chiefs despite being this banged up.
But at this point, we’ll just have to see it to believe it.
