From the Miami Dolphins to the Cincinnati Bengals -- embarking on an NFL Tour of Sadness

"WELCOME TO THE DREAM," declares the sign overhead as we approach MetLife Stadium. Our Formula One shuttle driver slams on the brakes and dumps us at a place that seems appropriate for this game between the 4-8 New York Jets and 3-9 Miami Dolphins: directly in front of a row of overflowing Royal Flush port-a-potties. It is Week 13 of the NFL season, and with less than a month to go, 19 teams sit at or below .500. That number has hit 20 in a season only once since the league reached 32 teams.
