Barnwell: Are the Dolphins really doing this? How they could tank ... and win

Through three weeks, the Miami Dolphins are the worst team in NFL history. Brian Flores' team has been outscored 133-16, for a point differential of minus-117. That's 20 points worse than the previous record holder, the 1950 Colts, but at least those Colts briefly led in one of their three blowout losses. Miami hasn't made it out of the first half of the first quarter with a tie. It has scored one touchdown in three weeks, which isn't an NFL record. It has allowed 18 touchdowns over that same time frame, which is.

Of course, the Dolphins aren't trying to be competitive.
