The personnel losses, penalties and turnovers ended up just too a great deal to conquer for the Dolphins. The Vikings didn’t always play a fantastic activity, somewhat they played an opportunistic game.

It is difficult to get when you maintain owning the quarterback you put together to start all week go down. With any luck ,, that is done for the Dolphins soon after this a person with Tua Tagovailoa established to return for Sunday evening in opposition to the Steelers. 3-3 is all around where by I anticipated this staff to be at this place, but probably with some of the benefits going in different ways. Miami has to now get gain of this gentle place of the routine with the Steelers, Lions, Bears, Browns and Texans coming up.

For only the 2nd time in crew background, the Dolphins are 3-3 soon after a 3- commence. Worse, they are now tied for the basement of the AFC East with the Patriots, seeking up at the Jets and Costs. There has been large, major pass strain considering that Terron Armstead exited a recreation-and a fifty percent ago. Now, Tua returns.
