A heartbreaking loss to the New York Jets ended the Philadelphia Eagles' bid for a perfect season, and things won't get any easier for them this weekend when they take on the Miami Dolphins on Sunday Night Football.

This is a potential Super Bowl preview between two of the best teams in the NFL and, in my opinion, is the game of the year.

Dolphins vs. Eagles key players to watch

Miami Dolphins

Tyreek Hill: The sore spot for the Eagles defense this season has been their secondary, now they have to try to defend the best receiver in the NFL. No player has ever recorded 2,000 or more receiving yards in a single season, but Tyreek Hill is on pace for over 2,300. He's a big problem the Eagles need to try to figure out if they want to win this game.

Philadelphia Eagles

D'Andre Swift: Not enough people are talking about how good D'Andre Swift has been this season. He's averaging 5.3 yards per carry and he's the also fourth on the team in receptions (23), and receiving yards (115). He's a big piece of this offense and will be key in Sunday night's game against the Dolphins.

Dolphins vs. Eagles prediction and pick

I think the best thing to do in this game is to just sit back and root for points in this marquee matchup.

Both teams have had similar issues this year where their offense is outplaying their defense. That's especially the case for the Dolphins, who have a historic offense but an average defense at best. Their defense enters this game ranking 19th in opponent yards per play and 23rd in opponent EPA/Play.

That's going to leave an opening for the Eagles offense to do work which is much needed after a disappointing outing against the Jets.

It's a high total, but I don't care. I think this is going to be an offensive shootout for the ages.
