We should all probably face the facts - this week’s NFL power rankings tour around the web will not be pretty. At least it cannot look as bad as whatever that was the Miami Dolphins did last night on Monday Night Football against the Carolina Panthers. There is a lot of ugly right now, and the power rankings are going to show it.
The Dolphins now get to finally play their Week 1 game, facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a game delayed by Hurricane Irma. Can Miami figure out whatever is wrong with them during this week and get back to at least looking like a football team?
Let’s take a look at this week’s rankings:

Comments: How the hell does this Dolphins team have four wins? They’re awful. Outscored by 112 to 45 in their last three games.

Comments: Torture defined - watching this team in prime time three weeks in a row. At least Kenyan Drake finally notched Miami's first rushing TD of 2017.

Week 11 Ranking: 25

Comments: Are we sure Adam Gase is a good coach? I know Jay Cutler was taken off the scrap heap, though Gase seemed to stand on the table for him. But you watch this awful Dolphins offense — if you were anywhere near Twitter in August you heard an NFL reporter or 50 call it The Best Team Cutler Had Ever Played On — it’s hard to be impressed with Gase’s play-calling.

Week 11 Ranking: 28
Last Week: 28
Comments: Do the Dolphins feel like the worst 4-5 team ever? Perhaps that's a tad strong, but Miami fans aren't defending the mediocre record on social media. Not after falling to the Ravens 40-zip on "Thursday Night Football." Or 20-nothing to the Jets in London. After getting manhandled at the point of attack -- and on the scoreboard -- Monday night, Adam Gase's group has now been embarrassed three times in front of a national audience. The Dolphins' point differential is minus-87. That means they're losing by an average of 9.7 points per game. There are quality, prideful players on this team, like Cameron Wake. Methinks we'll see a rebound. How strong? Mmmmm ... uhhhh ... well ...
