The Miami Dolphins lost 19-9 to the Detroit Lions, but this was one of those games where you can feel encouraged and frustrated at the same time. Miami’s defense played physically, consistently forced Detroit to settle for field goals and once again showed the identity Jeff Hafley is trying to build.

But the Dolphins’ limitations were just as obvious. Malik Willis continues to operate with a tiny margin for error, the running game has stalled for two straight weeks, Miami’s young skill-position players aren’t producing enough and the special teams problems continue. Wes Goldberg breaks down both sides of a complicated loss.
