The Miami Dolphins lost 19-9 at home to the Detroit Lions, who arrived with a 6-2 record. The defeat dropped the Dolphins to 1-7 and extended a losing run that began a week earlier against the Patriots. They are now 0-4 at home this season.
The passing game decided the result, and it produced little against the Lions. Malik Willis completed 13 of 25 passes for 128 yards, with 0 touchdowns and 1 interception. On the other side of the ball, Jordyn Brooks carried a heavy load for the Dolphins with 20 tackles.
That record leaves the Dolphins last in the AFC East, where the Bills lead and the Patriots sit at 5-3. They are 14th in the AFC and hold no seed, outside the top seven. Since Week 4, their only win came 28-25 at the Jets, against losses to the Vikings, Bengals, Patriots and Lions.
Third downs are a strength, with a 41.6 percent conversion rate that ranks 10th of 32, but scoring ranks 31st of 32 at 15.8 points per game. Malik Willis leads the offense with 1,268 passing yards, though the passing game ranks 31st of 32 in yards per game. Jacob Rodriguez leads the defense with 110 tackles.
Next come road games against the 2-6 Colts and the 6-1 Bills, followed by a home game against the 2-6 Jets. The Colts and Jets look manageable, while the Week 11 game against the Bills is the hardest test and a meeting with the division leader. The Dolphins remain in the playoff race, with 9 games left.
