Let’s take care of the big picture first: Amid what is bound to be much hand-wringing and fear that this season has hit an impenetrable wall I remind you this loss does not end nor crash the season.
One ugly, disappointing, unacceptable performance from the Miami Dolphins at the end of October does not define the season even when the team laid the egg on national television.
This 40-0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens does not quash playoff hopes or derail the Dolphins from ultimately delivering in November and December.
Obviously it doesn’t help. Let’s admit that.
