THINGS are looking grim in Miami after just four weeks of the NFL season.
The Dolphins are still without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and their season is already hanging in the balance.

The Dolphins were a playoff team in 2023, with Tua leading the NFL in passing yards.
Tyreek Hill led the NFL in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns, and the future looked bright for Miami’s championship aspirations in 2024.
However, things quickly derailed to start this season. Tua suffered another concussion in Week 2 of the season, and the Dolphins have looked lost without him.
Miami won their opening game of the season against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but haven’t won another game since.
Sitting at 1-3, they may already be out of playoff contention, and there are still two more weeks until Tua can return to play.
On Monday night, NFL fans got a full display of how the Dolphins function without Tua at the helm of the offense, and it wasn’t a pretty sight to behold.
Quarterback Tyler Huntley only managed to pass for 96 yards, and the team combined for just 106 rushing yards.
It was a frustrating night on offense, and Hill was among those who had a poor night.
The Dolphins’ superstar receiver only managed 23 passing yards and 19 rushing yards on the day, and he was clearly upset with the Dolphins only scoring 12 points on the night.
He was seen fuming on the sideline late in the fourth quarter, screaming his displeasure with the offense.
Head coach Mike McDaniel was alongside him during the heated moment and appeared locked into the game despite being down 22-6 then.
The Dolphins have not held a lead in a game at any point this season. Their only lead change came in Week 1 when they won on a walk-off field goal with no time left on the clock.
“There’s a major disconnect between preparation and execution,” McDaniel said after the game.
The Dolphins are in a rough situation early in the season, and NFL fans have shared their thoughts about the future of the team.
“Tua was their offense,” one fan said.

“What is wrong with TYREEK HILL,” another fan said.
“Tyreek Hill is the next Davante Adams! Wanting out when their teams start losing,” a third fan said.
“Chiefs need a WR don’t they? Maybe time for him to go Home?” a fourth fan said.
“Does Tyreek want out of Miami????” a fifth fan said.
