26. Miami Dolphins (25)

The Miami Dolphins entered Week 11 with all sorts of confidence after previously winning two games in a row, including a surprise win over the Indianapolis Colts the week before.

No one needs to explain just how bad things have been for the Dolphins at times in 2019 since this team was even a strong candidate to go the entire year without a single win at some point.

And while Miami did find a way to make things interesting in the first half during Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills, the Dolphins eventually fell apart in the second half.

Once again, it’s difficult to ignore whether Miami would be better off going with Josh Rosen at quarterback after Ryan Fitzpatrick failed to throw a single touchdown pass in the loss to Buffalo.

Unless the Dolphins provide Rosen with the opportunity to show off his skills under center, it’s going to be difficult for Miami to determine whether he’s the right answer at quarterback.

So after Miami came up short against Buffalo, maybe this will finally convince Brian Flores to make the switch at quarterback to Rosen since Fitzpatrick isn’t part of the long-term plans, and is only holding the youngster back.
