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. 00:00 Dolphins' Week 18 Player Incentives 03:55 "Bradley Chubb's Incentive Hurdles" 08:24 Dolphins Players Chase Cash Incentives 10:31 "Gusto: Simplify Payroll and HR" 13:53 Colts Face Uncertain Future 17:22 "Figuring Out Quarterback and Coach" 21:56 Chargers Rest; Playoff Picture Shifts 25:56 "Dolphins Playoff Stakes & Storylines" Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
