MIAMI GARDENS — With the clock winding down and another loss at hand, Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross slumped in his skybox seat, right elbow resting heavily on the armrest, right hand pinching his forehead as if trying to intercept an oncoming headache.
Down below, a small crowd mustered big boos.
The Dolphins lost again and will sit out the playoffs – again. And so speculation about yet another possible organizational shake-up by Ross has begun.
Miami was beaten 17-7 Sunday by Jacksonville and could hardly have looked worse at home against an also-ran opponent. The Dolphins gained 83 yards on their first drive, and 100 the rest of the way.
