Dolphins Rank: 19 (-)

Comment: The Wildcat dominated the Colts but Miami lost the game by four. Maybe the "Cat" isn't that wild. (Clayton)

Dolphins Rank: 22 (+2)

Comment: They controlled the clock against the Colts, ran the ball for over 200 yards and did what they intended to do. But they didn't score enough touchdowns. That's what not having big plays does to a team, and the Dolphins now must go to San Diego.

Dolphins Rank: 23 (-4)

Comment: Last season, Tony Sparano was the no-nonsense head coach the Dolphins needed. This season, he's a no-win head coach so far, and nobody needs that.

Comment:

NO WORRIES: Try not to feel too bad about Miami's 0-2 start, especially since it matches the team's first two weeks of 2008 — when the team went on to win 11 of its final 14 games and win the AFC East.
TIME TO WORRY: How do you lose a game after possessing the ball for over 45 of 60 minutes? It doesn't say much for the defense, which gave up 27 points in just 15 minutes of field time.
THIS WEEK: at Chargers (1-1)

Comment:
Indianapolis ran 13 plays in the second half and had the ball for a record low 14.53 all game. Despite having all the possession, Miami couldn't get it done because honestly, they lack playmakers at every position. When they needed a big third down conversion, they fell short. When they needed an efficient final drive, they looked bloated and underpowered. This game was there for the taking. Up Next: @San Diego Chargers

Dolphins Rank: 25 (-)

Comment:
The Dolphins came up just short of an impressive upset. The offense ran over 80 plays, and had the ball for over 45 minutes of game time, but it just wasn’t quite enough. The Dolphins are now 0-2, and most likely won’t make the playoffs, but don’t underestimate them, they have the potential to beat almost any team in the league

Dolphins Rank: 24 (-1)

Comment:
Last week: 27-23 loss vs. Indianapolis. Last year’s Dolphins lived by the turnover (+17, best in the NFL). This year’s team is dying from them (-5, tied for worst in the NFL).

Comment:
The Colts' offense spent all but one quarter in time of possession on the sidelines, and they STILL lose? Unbelievable!

Clayton gets 1 point for being "cute" minus -9 points for not mentioning it was the defence's fault for Miami not winning.

Failure, Poindexter! Where's Sean Salseberry when you need him?
