Summary

Millions are on the line as Miami Dolphins defenders chase performance incentives in a crucial Week 18 showdown with the New England Patriots. Can Bradley Chubb, Rasul Douglas, and Tyrell Dodson cash in, or will fine-print qualifiers and the Falcons' defensive performance leave incentive dollars on the table? Kyle Crabbs analyzes Miami’s contract strategy, defensive unit goals, and the ripple effect on 2026 salary cap planning, breaking down specifics from Chubb’s sack and snap targets to team takeaway requirements. Key discussion points include the Dolphins’ upcoming opponents, AFC playoff seeding drama, and whether New England will rest starters based on Denver Broncos scoreboard watching. With roster futures and financial stakes hanging in the balance, every point—and turnover—matters as the Dolphins fight for pride and payouts to close the NFL season.

Quite a bit of coin on the line for the dolphins this weekend.

0:03.0

Today's episode is going to get into incentive dollars.

0:52.2

And incentive dollars is going to be tied to not just the Bradley Chubb

0:57.9

chase for how many sacks and playing time thresholds that he hits. The dolphins have built

1:05.0

in some protections for some of theirs incentives. And the one with Bradley Chub has been

1:09.0

well documented. But the dolphins with the way that they've structured a number of these contracts,

1:13.4

they have sneakily put protections in for a number of these players and contracts.

1:22.9

And that's part of Miami targeting certain players and maybe not being super high bidders in free agency

1:29.8

is giving higher earnings potential based on performance on the field.

1:35.0

So what I want to do is Spot Track actually has a very helpful tool that pulls up all the

1:41.4

contracts that have all the incentive money for every player under contract

1:46.2

and kind of walk through what is and is not on the line in the way of incentives

1:52.1

for the dolphins in week 18 as they get ready to play against a New England Patriots

1:56.5

team that's kind of in an interesting spot.

2:03.3

We'll talk about that on the course of today's show as well.
