SAN FRANCISCO — Sometimes teams undergo an identity crisis early and come out the other side a better football team.
That seems to be the metamorphosis the Miami Dolphins (2-3) are undergoing in the first half of the 2020 season, because the Dolphins have been competitive all season. But Brian Flores' team seems to be establishing an identity on offense and defense, and might be figuring out how to win games.
Here is the South Florida Sun Sentinel’s report card, evaluating how the Dolphins performed in Sunday’s impressive 43-17 win over the San Francisco 49ers.
Ryan Fitzpatrick, who completed 22 of 28 passes against the 49ers, joined Dan Marino as the only Dolphins quarterbacks to throw for 350 or more yards and three touchdowns in a game.
