Dolphins leaning toward starting Jay Cutler this week

Dolphins head coach Adam Gase strongly hinted to reporters Monday that he would start Cutler against the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday. Matt Moore was 1 of 1 for five yards with the starting group in Miami’s preseason opening win over the Falcons last week.

Gase added that Cutler has “pretty much” learned — or re-learned — the offense.

Cutler was always expected to be a quick study in Gase’s scheme, given that he executed it well while playing under him in Chicago during the 2015 season. With most of the concepts having been refreshed in Cutler’s mind, the 34-year-old will now hope to improve his chemistry with Miami’s pass catchers.
