QB Tannehill wasn't any good as the 13 point output suggests. But, His WRs are just awful. There wasn't a single time, not once, that any receiver had any kind of separation. When you need to throw a perfect pass in every attempt the results aren't good, not for Tannehill not for any other QB. C-
RB The running game is just not clicking. Bush, Thomas or Miller, it doesn't realy matter. D
WR Harline wasn't very good and as much as Bess tries he is not a real number two WR. He is a slot WR trying to play number two. He catches passes with zero separation and that kust isn't enough. The Dolphins have 3, t-h-r-e-e TDs by WRs the entire year! That's a game for Calvin Johnson. This team really really misses Brandon Marshall. F
OL Martin actually played OK in his first career start at LT. He did give up a sack or two but that's to be expected. It could have been much. He actually helped himself in that game. The O-line could not push the niners as expected. D
LB The front 7 actually plyed well for most of the game. Dansby is soild and consistent, as is Kevin Burnett. The Niners are a very good team and there is no shame in giving them some yards on the ground. They gave the offense the opportunity needed to win this game. B-
DL Cam Wake had 3 sacks and Odrick played OK. Soliali and Starks had a decent game for most of the afternnoon. Gore had his yards at the end but that was a decent performance by the D-line. B-
Secondary The secondary is playing better in the last two weeks but it is still the weak link in the defense, then again, with Miami's offense not matter what the defense does you just can't win games scoring 13 points in today's NFL. C-
Special teams Another bad game for the suddenly declining special teams. Carpenter is playing better and Thigpen is a very nice pick up but the coverage teams have to play better. C
Coaching What a bad game. They actually played good enough to steal the game again but the offense is just awful. The WRs are never open, they get zero separation. You just can not win scoring 13 points or 20 points a game. D
