"While the New England Patriots look completely revamped and ready to compete in the AFC, it's been a much different story for the Miami Dolphins. No one was exactly pounding the "Super Bowl-bound" drum for the Dolphins, but they also probably didn't expect them to have just one win through the first six weeks of the season. For Patriots fans, this has been quite comical."

The Miami Dolphins have a 1-5 record through six weeks and are experiencing a sharp decline after several respectable, playoff-reaching seasons. Players have been late to or skipping players-only meetings, a problem highlighted by quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in comments to reporters. Tagovailoa directly cited leadership as the root cause, suggesting Mike McDaniel has lost control of the locker room. The public airing of internal discipline issues signals deep dysfunction and low morale. Fans of division rival New England Patriots are viewing the collapse with amusement. Reports predict McDaniel may be dismissed and the franchise could require a substantial rebuild.
