MIAMI GARDENS http://www.thedolphinslockerroom.com/authentic-jesse-davis-jersey , Fla. (AP) 鈥?With the clock winding down and another loss at hand, Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross slumped in his skybox seat, right elbow resting heavily on the armrest, right hand pinching his forehead as if trying to intercept an oncoming headache.Down below, a small crowd mustered big boos.The Dolphins lost again, and will sit out the playoffs again.

The Dolphins gained 83 yards on their first drive, and 100 the rest of the way."Terrible," head coach and play-caller Adam Gase said. "I mean, the offense was awful."Ryan Tannehill, playing perhaps his final home game with Miami, threw a pick-six in the fourth quarter to seal the defeat. As a result William Hayes Jersey , the Dolphins (7-8) will sit out the postseason for the 15th time in the past 17 years."That's why you play this game 鈥?to get to the playoffs and try to win the last game of the year," receiver Danny Amendola said. "Unfortunately we lost today. It really stinks."The loss mathematically eliminated the Dolphins, although because of subsequent results in other games, they would have been eliminated even if they had won. The dismal performance in the home finale is sure to sour Ross' view of his latest talent-deficient team.Miami has had 20 starting quarterbacks and nine coaches since 1999. Gase declined to discuss possible changes for 2019."I'm not there yet," he said. "We just got done with this. I've got to figure out why we can't get guys covered up, and why we can't be more physical than what we were."Gase's job could be in jeopardy http://www.thedolphinslockerroom.com/authentic-ryan-fitzpatrick-jersey , and the 30-year-old Tannehill's future is very much in doubt.

"I wish he would have played a little better. I wish he would have made a few more decisions that were different. I think there have been games that he has played really well, and there have been some games where we haven't played well."And it's as much on me as it is on him. I have to do a better job of making sure that he's doing the right things at the right time."Tannehill is 42-45 as a starter and has never taken a postseason snap. Gase is 23-25 in three seasons with the Dolphins, including a playoff loss in 2016.They haven't won a postseason game since 2000. That will remain the case for at least another year. The Dolphins signed Ryan Fitzpatrick over the weekend in a move that makes Fitzpatrick the current favorite to open the 2019 season as their starting quarterback.Fitzpatrick has some experience being in that situation and he’s experienced plenty of other ones over the years. Fitzpatrick has made 126 starts for seven different teams over the last 14 years and said Tuesday that he had other options outside of Miami as a free agent.Some of those teams will likely be better than the Dolphins in 2019, but those would be backup gigs. Fitzpatrick said getting a chance to add to those career start numbers was the key to his decision.“I have been in pretty much every situation you could imagine in my career,” Fitzpatrick said, via the . “The way I view this is there are 32 of these starting gigs in the NFL and this is one of them. The opportunity to be one of them is an amazing privilege and honor.”Fitzpatrick acknowledged that “nothing is promised” and the Dolphins could still make another move at quarterback that leaves him on the bench. Whether he’s starting or on the bench Davon Godchaux Jersey , Fitzpatrick revealed that the tropical climate in Miami won’t lead to a change in his facial hair.“It’s become such a part of who I am,” Fitzpatrick said. “It will definitely be in full effect.”If Fitzmagic is also in full effect, there should be some fun in South Florida this year.
