Grading the Dolphins

QB Tua was just bad. He did not have a good game and it's just a bad strech of games for him. It looks like he regressed or aged. Thank god for the running game. He finished 12 of 23 for 157 yards and an INT for a rating of 55.9 - that is not good. D-

RB Achane had 134 yards on 22 carries and a TD and looked unstopable at times. He is having a probowl year and went over 1000 yards for the first time in his career. A

WR Well Tua completed 12 balls. Waller "led" the team with 47 yards on 2 recptions. C-

OL They are playing much much better. Austin Jackson returned and the O-line looked the same as Larry Borom was playing well of late. Brewer is playing well and Jonah looks much better than the begining of the year. Paul did not have a very good game in his very good first season as the starter. They deserve a ton of credit for the running game resurgence. B+

LB LB Jordyn Brooks is WOW, he has to make the probowl. He is that good. Dodson is also playing well. The let down at the end was disturbing but they did give up only 17 points. B+

DL The yong unit is playing much better and Sieler also ooked better. They were able to contain the Kamara-less Saints and the pass rush was OK. Chubb is returning to his old self. Tey did win the game at the end with the 4th down stop. B+

Secondary Wow Mincah. HE saved the game with the pick two and Douglas came back and it showed, he is having a solid year. A-

Special teams The play of the special teams wasn't the diffrence in the game. Patterson is having a decent year as Jason Sanders' replacement. B-

Coaching
Something is wrong with Tua. He is just not playing good. McDaniel needs to fix his game, again. This game should have never come to being this close. On the upside the defense is playing well and the run game looks great. A win in NY will put them 1 game away from 500. B
