Adam Gase wore his cap with the bill tugged even lower than usual Monday Jerome Baker Jersey , as if trying to avoid looking at the big picture.It’s not pretty. His Miami Dolphins (5-6) have lost six of their past eight games, including two in a row, to fall below .500 for the first time in 2018.And now they’ve earned a reputation for blowing double-digit fourth-quarter leads. They did it for the second time this season Sunday, when Indianapolis erased a 10-point deficit in the final 8½ minutes to win 27-24.In Week 5, Cincinnati rallied from a 17-point deficit and scored four times in the fourth period to beat Miami 27-17.“You’re disappointed because you’ve got two games where you’re going, 5-6 (could be) 7-4,” Gase said.“It’s a lousy feeling,” he added, although he used a locker-room synonym for “lousy.”Quarterback Ryan Tannehill played Sunday for the first time since the Cincinnati debacle, when he hurt his throwing shoulder. He went 2 for 4 for minus 3 yards in the fourth quarter against the Colts but still finished with a passer rating of 119.4 and emerged from the game in good shape physically.“The shoulder wasn’t an issue,” Tannehill said. “It felt really good. I really didn’t even think about it throughout the game.”Miami’s meltdown was a whopper, however. Indy outgained the Dolphins 200 yards to minus 1 yard in the final 13½ minutes.“The way it went down, obviously Andrew Van Ginkel Miami Dolphins Jerseys , really hurts,” Tannehill said.More Miami Dolphins newsRally led by FitzMagic comes up short for DolphinsDolphins can’t hang with explosive Cowboys in QB Josh Rosen’s 1st start with MiamiDolphins QB Josh Rosen will reportedly start in place of Ryan Fitzpatrick vs. CowboysDolphins’ excruciating start to season continuesDolphins can’t contain Patriots as Antonio Brown scores in debutThe collapse triggered a frenzy on social media, with Gase’s play-calling criticized like never before in his three seasons as head coach.He acknowledged second-guessing himself regarding one call, saying the Colts’ scheme surprised him on a second-and-10 pass into the flat to DeVante Parker that went for no gain during a three-and-out before the Colts’ winning drive.“If I could have that one back, that probably could have made a difference,” Gase muttered. “You hate when you’re up and you lose the lead, and you know what you left on the field, and you know some of the situational stuff that didn’t get done right.”As a result, the Dolphins had three takeaways, deflected a punt, scored on a 74-yard pass and still managed to lose.“It was right there,” defensive end Cameron Wake said. “I mean, everything. It was scripted the way we wanted.”With the defeat Miami Dolphins Jerseys 2019 , the Dolphins fell behind seven teams in the AFC standings. They’ll likely be favored in only two of their final five games, including Sunday at home against Buffalo, and appear destined to miss the playoffs for the 15th time in the past 17 years.It can be argued that the Dolphins are worse than their record, and below .500 is where they belong. They rank 28th in the NFL in offense and 29th in defense. They’ve been outgained by 928 yards, third-worst in the league.Injuries continue to ravage the offense, with receiver Danny Amendola (right knee) and center Travis Swanson (ankle) the latest casualties. The status of both for Sunday’s game is uncertain.But Gase predicted his team will bounce back from the latest loss.“The good thing about NFL players is once we hit Wednesday, they really don’t care about last week,” he said. “It’s probably better they’re like that, compared with the coaches. We’ll dwell.” The Miami Dolphins are making a quarterback change, the team announced on Wednesday. After benching Ryan Fitzpatrick in favor of Josh Rosen heading into Week 3, the team will reverse that decision as they prepare for their Week 7 game at the Buffalo Bills. Fitzpatrick replaced Rosen in the fourth quarter of the team’s game last week against the Washington Redskins, directing two touchdown scoring drives, the first two scores for the Dolphins in the second half of a game this season.“We kind of came to that conclusion really over the last couple of days Andrew Van Ginkel Jersey nfl draft ,” head coach Brian Flores said in announcing the change. “We decided that we feel like that was the best thing for this team and give us an opportunity – the best opportunity – for this team to go up into a tough environment and try to pull out a win; and we do that on a weekly basis. What’s the best way, what’s the best grouping, set of players – offense, defense, kicking game – to help us try to win the game? We felt that that was the case this week.”This season, Fitzpatrick is 39-for-70 (60 percent) for 435 yards with two touchdowns and four interceptions. He started in Weeks 1 and 2. Rosen, who started Weeks 3, 4, and 6, around Miami’s Week 5 bye, is 58-for-109 (53.2 percent) for 567 yards with one touchdown and five interceptions.“We need to be more productive on offense,” Flores said of if players respond to Fitzpatrick in the huddle. “We really need to be more productive everywhere; but offensively, we need more production. We got that out of Ryan the other day for a quarter Daniel Kilgore Jersey , and we just felt like as we – this game and this week – that was the best chance for us to be productive. We’ll see how it goes. This is a tough team. That’s an extremely tough defense. It’ll be a tough crowd. We know that. It’ll be a tough environment so it’ll be a major challenge, but we felt like given all those obstacles, that Ryan gave us the best chance to be productive offensively.”The Dolphins traded for Rosen during this year’s Draft, acquiring the 2018 tenth overall pick from the Arizona Cardinals. After three starts, however, he is heading back to the bench. “Josh, we have a lot of confidence in Josh or else we wouldn’t have played him,” Flores said of what the move means for Rosen. “I think for him, it’s got to be a day-to-day improve, get better and continue his development, and that was the conversation I had with him. I think he’s still a young player – a young, talented player – and there’s still a lot of room for development with him. We’ll continue to develop him in practice; but at the end of the day, we’re looking for production at all positions and we felt like playing ‘Fitz’ would be in the best interest of this team.”When asked what changed in Rosen that led to the team’s decision to go back to Fitzpatrick Youth Andrew Van Ginkel Jersey , Flores explained, “I would say his production in the game, pretty much. I think the way we played at the end of the game, along with some other – there’s a myriad of reasons – but at the end of the day, I felt like we moved the ball better with Ryan in the game and I think we need to stay with that. That’s really what changed. It’s not a knock on Josh. I think he’s improving. I do, and he’ll continue to improve; but at the end of the day, we’ve got to do what’s best for this team or what we feel is best for this team.”The Dolphins will face Buffalo, for whom Fitzpatrick played from 2009 through 2012, on Sunday in Orchard Park, New York. Kickoff is set for 1pm ET.
