The Miami Dolphins have won their last two games, moving to 2-7 on the year and looking more like a team than they looked in the early part of the season. The team is putting together 60-minute performances, moving away from the first-half succes, second-half collapse pattern that plagued them over the first several weeks. The players and coaches are fighting, and now winning, despite the roster tear down that happened prior to the season.
And, that fighting and winning is rubbing some of the fan base the wrong way. This year, according to much of the South Florida media, was supposed to be about losing as many games as possible in order to secure the first-overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, then use that selection to acquire Tua Tagovailoa as the team’s new franchise quarterback.
