Miami's defense struggles... Dolphins are 0-6

One of the worst defense in the NFL showed why they were just that (the worst defense in the NFL).

The Dolphins defense allowed 384 total yardage, 244 passing yards and 140 rushing yards. They also allowed one rushing touchdown by Jason Wright and three passing touchdowns from Derek Anderson. The Dolphins also struggled on penalties. Miami had eight penalties for 90 yards. Although the inside seven of Miami's defense struggle badly, so did Miami's cornerbacks and safeties.

Browns receiver Braylon Edwards had 5 five catches for 67 yards but had three touchdowns. Tight End Kellen Winslow had a great game as well. He had five receptions for 90 yards.On the other side of the ball (offense), the Dolphins played better than usual and scored more points.

Quarterback Cleo Lemon was superb. He pass for two touchdowns to tight end David Martin and rushed for two toucdowns as well. Running Back, Ronnie Brown rushed for 101 yards on 19 carries. This is the fourth week in a row that Brown rushes for more than 100 yards. The first downs of this game was even, but that's because Miami had to play comeback to make this game close.

The Dolphins should play for next year instead of this year. Lose as much games to secure the #1 pick in next years NFL Draft. They should play with what they have and see what needs they will need.

Just when things couldn't get any worst they will. Miami plays the undefeated New England Patroits, who came away from Dallas with a big win. According to ESPN, "Cleveland handed Miami a franchise-record ninth consecutive loss.
