Cratering offensive line threatens to ruin Dolphins' strong start

DAVIE, Fla. -- Ryan Tannehill took hit after hit, wincing and limping back to the huddle. He got bent backward awkwardly on a hit when Sunday's game against the Patriots was out of hand. Dolphins coach Adam Gase saw enough to pull Tannehill for Brock Osweiler in the fourth quarter to preserve his first-string quarterback's health.

Tannehill brushed it off after the game, but it clearly affected him.

"Took a few shots but I’m doing good," Tannehill said after Sunday's game.

Running back Kenyan Drake ran into walls of Patriots defenders and tried to bounce plays outside, looking for daylight to try to spark a struggling offense.
