QB Ryan Tannehill was great. The numbers are 15 of 20 for 195 yards 3 TDs and 1 INT for a rating of 124. He plyed well until the injury. It's just sad to see him miss the last 3 games of the season. Let's be real - the season is likely over. Sad. He deserved to lead his team to a winning record and possibly a playoff spot. A
RB The Dolphins runnig game is not working. Too many negative plays. There is no push up the middle and Ajayi has nowhere to run. He finished with just 48 yards on 20 carries. C-
WR A nice game for Stills (6 for 97 yards, a TD and the play of the game that set up the winning FG) and Landry (4 for 103 including a career high 71 yarder with more than 60 of those yarde coming after contact). Parker was quiet (2 for 14) but had some very important blocks. He caught the ball that Ryan threw as he was being injured... B
OL Center is a problem. No push up the middle and Bushrod looks tired. Other than that their were OK even though there was no running room and Campbell hurt Ryan... C
LB With no Kiko or Jenkins the Dolphins had to stop David Johnson with a patch work LB. They actually played well - same as the entire defensive unit. And like the entire defense they caved at the end... B
DL Wake had a great game and so did Suh (that's usual). They pressured Palmer and stopped Johnson when it was important. If not for the collpase in the 4th this could have been the best defensive performance of the year. B+
Secondary Palmer did not play very well and the secondary managed to stay with Fitzgerlad. Like the entire unit - aside from the 4th they played very well. B
Special teams Wow. The Cards were awful but Landry did pretty much win the game with a great punt return when they needed it the most. Franks is good at PATs which in todays NFL is saying a lot. Just ask the Cardinals... The block PAT (Philips) returned for 2 points (Aikens) saved the day. B+
Coaching They looked much better but the 4th quarter collpase can not be just marked off as - Tannehill's injury changed everything. The defense played well for 3 quarters and then collapsed. The most important thing is the Dolphins are now 8-5 and if not for the Tannehill injury would certainly finish the 2016 season with a winning record. We'll see now if they can salvage something from the season without Ryan is indeed his injury is bad. B+
