The Miami Dolphins finally ended their five-game losing streak last week with a 35-9 pounding on the Denver Broncos. Miami could very well begin another losing streak this week, however, when the Patriots come to town. The Dolphins have been dreadful in primetime games this year, and many believe that it will be much of the same this Monday night.
Despite the fact that the Dolphins don’t have much of a chance at pulling out a victory on Monday, it doesn’t necessarily mean that fantasy owners should leave players on the bench this week. The Patriots defense has improved as the season has gone on, but they’re far from elite.
