The Miami Dolphins struggled to get much of anything going defensively in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. Vic Fangio's defense surrendered 48 points — should anything have been done differently? Xavien Howard mentioned that he would've liked to shadow Diggs in coverage, but how much would that have changed the outcome?
The largest concern is inside linebackers, David Long Jr. and Jerome Baker simply don't look comfortable in Fangio's defense. Long missed two tackles while Baker allowed three completions in coverage. It's early in the season, can the Dolphins clean things up at linebacker?
Lastly, Andrew Van Ginkel is the only player with more than a sack through four games. While Jaelan Phillips has missed times with injuries, Miami's pass rush has struggled to disrupt opposing quarterbacks. It's early in the season — it's not time to panic, yet!
