A week after the Miami Dolphins host the Seattle Seahawks on a west-to-east-coast trip, Miami makes a similar trip the other direction as they head to California to face the San Francisco 49ers. The third-longest road trip in the NFL (trailing the Seattle/Miami and Boston/Los Angeles trips), the Dolphins will be facing the NFC representative in last year’s Super Bowl. Not exactly an easy task.
The 49ers are going to be looking to avenge their loss in the Super Bowl last year, which means they will be looking to torch the regular season and put themselves in position to win the title this season.
