Miami loses ground on offense
The Miami Dolphins fell to 1-7 with a 19-9 loss to the Detroit Lions at Hard Rock Stadium in Week 9. Miami has scored 126 points and allowed 200 this season, leaving a minus-74 point differential. The Dolphins have scored fewer points in each game since their Week 7 win at the New York Jets. They followed that 28-25 victory with a 24-19 loss to the New England Patriots, then managed nine points against Detroit.
Douglas leads the latest fantasy returns
Wide receiver Caleb Douglas paced Miami's Week 9 fantasy production with 13.0 PPR points. Kicker Zane Gonzalez followed with 10.0, while running backs Ollie Gordon II and Kaytron Allen finished with 7.4 and 5.5, respectively. Miami's defense added 5.0. Quarterback Malik Willis leads the team's season fantasy totals with 103.0 PPR points. Gordon has 79.6, followed by wide receiver Malik Washington at 75.8, Douglas at 60.6 and tight end Greg Dulcich at 51.0. Douglas delivered the best Week 9 return, but Washington still holds the higher season total among Miami's receivers.
Indianapolis is next
Miami visits the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10 at Lucas Oil Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 15, at 1 p.m. ET. The Dolphins head into that matchup with consecutive losses and a season scoring average of 15.8 points per game. Improving that output is the clearest task after their nine-point finish against Detroit.
