NFL.com: 17th

Jay Ajayi didn't put the team on his back this week. The Dolphins' defense and special teams took care of that for him. So many important plays to circle in Miami's division win over the Jets, with none bigger than Kenyan Drake's 96-yard return TD to immediately answer New York's go-ahead score late in the fourth quarter. After stumbling around the 25, the rookie out of Alabama exploded around the 35-yard line to take it to the house. Or maybe it was the 40 ... or 45. I've watched it three times. The dude is running so fast, for the life of me, I can't tell where he turned it on. Oh, Ajayi rushed for a "quiet" 111 yards. Not bad.

CBS Sports: 15th

The running game has this team at 4-4. Adam Gase has done a heck of a job.

Bleacher Report: 16th

That fourth-ranked Jets run defense?


Still no match for Jay Ajayi. Miami’s power back didn’t eclipse the 200-yard mark, but he dig drag Gang Green defenders with him on some smart, efficient runs. It’s encouraging that he can come right back off the bye and still put numbers up.


Also encouraging: Ryan Tannehill’s day behind center. I know the yards (149) and touchdowns (just one) weren’t there against a down-and-out defense. But the kid made a handful of impressive throws and avoided the backbreaking interception. Miami will take that.


Looking forward: Miami is out on the West Coast for a big showdown in San Diego. Can Ryan Tannehill keep pace with Philip Rivers?

I looked at ESPN and we are 25th in their rankings lol. Including multiple spots behind both Buffalo and the Steelers.

The Fins didn't even get a highlight during halftime of Monday night football. ESPN does all it can to keep the Fins out of the lime light or give credit where it's due.
 
Keep disrespecting us, I like it! In the middle is about right, we need to show we can win on the road!
 
This team might be 7-4 before anyone notices.
 
Can't take ESPN seriously anymore. Terrible channel these days. They even butchered the MNF music theme. That was the final straw for me.
 
USA Today has us at 11.

Which all these prove that they are nothing more than entertainment.

I could have swore when I looked at them this morning, it was from last week....it still had us at 3-4...I could be wrong tho.
 
We're 4-4. That's really all that matters. Who cares about those polls or any other poll for that matter? We're number 7 as far as playoffs picture with 8 games to go. About to play 3 of 4 on the road for the 2nd time this year. We need to go no worse than 3-1 to have a chance at the wildcard.

Ozzy rules!!
 
Who cares! Dolphins against the world.

I looked at all the power rankings earlier and just laughed when I came to ESPN's. 25th?? Really?? Every other site has us between 11 and 20th. I noticed that 2 weeks ago even that ****head James Walker was surprised how low we were and here we've added another win and only make it to 25... **** you ESPN. I'm glad your ratings suck and you're tanking Disney.
 
ESPN has been a joke for a long time. Even their live spots are pretty unbearable. During college football they spend half the game hyping their playoff ranking show and the other half of the game showing you how irrelevant those rankings are.
 
It's probably because every time ESPN gets on Miami bandwagon they get let down. ESPN wants to see a few years of winning before coming back around...not that anyone is waiting around for ESPN.
