Dolphins Prepare To Face Bengals Following Last Week’s Drubbing In New England

DAVIE (CBSMiami/AP) — It’s back to the drawing board for the team leading the AFC East.

The drubbing the Miami Dolphins endured last week at New England has tested their vocabulary as they keep searching for new ways to describe the humiliation.

“We just got crushed,” coach Adam Gase said Wednesday.

He was talking about his offensive line, but the depiction also fits the defensive line. The Dolphins were dominated in the trenches in a 38-7 defeat, and to have a chance Sunday as one-touchdown underdogs at Cincinnati, they’ll need significant improvement up front.

It won’t come easily, with manpower in both lines depleted.
