'Changes coming' for flagging Dolphins

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel plans to make changes as Miami limps back to work with a 1-3 record and a trip to New England dead ahead. The Dolphins rank last, one spot below the Patriots, in points per game this season. Miami lost 31-12 on Monday night to the previously winless Titans, a third consecutive defeat. During the skid the Dolphins have scored a total of 25 points. Miami was No. 2 in scoring in the NFL last season at 29.2 points per game. "On the field that's not even close to good enough," McDaniel said Monday night. "Everything's on the table. To me, in a situation like this, I haven't really been in one where we haven't had production. You really have to have an open mind to all things." Starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa hasn't played since a concussion in Week 2 and his return is uncertain. Last week, Skylar Thompson started at quarterback but was injured and unable to get in a full practice. The Dolphins started recently signed Tyler Huntley against the Titans and McDaniel said the game plan was built around "all things he was comfortable with" using elements of his previous offenses with the Ravens and Browns. Huntley scored Miami's first touchdown since Week 2 on a fourth-quarter keeper but fell short of 100 passing yards on Monday night. McDaniel felt an early turnover on a lateral pass flipped momentum. "Ultimately there's nothing good about this situation right now in terms of where our team wants to be," McDaniel said. "We need to do enough to win a football game against any opponent. Right now, that's not the case. We need to fix that fast." --Field Level Media
