Best Case: Bill Lazor does what Mike Sherman couldn’t do, igniting Miami’s offense and helping quarterback Ryan Tannehill take the next step. Behind a couple of come-from-behind wins early in the season, including the opener at home against New England, the Dolphins get on a roll. Mike Wallace blossoms in his second season catching passes from Tannehill. Knowshon Moreno provides a serious threat out of the backfield, rushing for 1,000 yards and posting another 500 receiving. And the rebuilt offensive line, behind free agent acquisition Branden Albert and rookie Ja’Wuan James, makes the bullying scandal a distant memory. But it’s not all about the offense in south Florida. Dion Jordan makes the leap in year two, teaming with Cameron Wake to form the best pass-rushing duo in football, which helps Brent Grimes and Cortland Finnegan vie for Pro Bowl nods at cornerback. Ultimately, it combines to help the Dolphins finish a surprising 11-5, good enough to win the AFC East. While a first-round loss at home to the Pittsburgh Steelers is a disappointment, it provides plenty of promise for the future.
Worst Case: It wasn’t all Sherman’s fault after all, as Tannehill continues to be hot and cold, struggling under Lazor’s tutelage, as well. After an 0-3 start, including home losses to the Patriots and Chiefs, Wallace – who has only four total catches at that point – throws a fit during practice and is suspended indefinitely. Forced to rely more on their running game, the Dolphins discover that Moreno is a three-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust back and that James was a reach in the first round. On the other side of the ball, Jordan continues to struggle, forcing many to chirp that he’s a bust and should be traded, while Finnegan records more 15-yard flags than interceptions. By season’s end, it’s evident that Joe Philbin has no control of the situation; Stephen Ross fires him and the Dolphins make a run at, but miss out on, every big-name head coach available. They settle for Josh McDaniels, who defects from New England to Miami, and quickly makes a bad situation even worse
Me very easy, best case, a playoff win
worse case same as last year, you know a couple of good wins,ala steelers and Pats of 2014 and a couple of heart-breaking loses ala Bills and Jets loses. Miss the playoffs on the last game again, Phil gets canned, finally.
