<p>Although Ryan Tannehill passed for nearly 350 yards, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross decided to cut ties with offensive coordinator Bill Lazor. That means the Dolphins have now rid themselves of the head coach, defensive coordinator and offensive coordinator they entered the 2015 season with. Head-scratching, to say the least.</p> <p>On the bright side, wideouts DeVante Parker and Jarvis Landry posted career performances in Week 12. Parker caught his first touchdown pass and Landry, whose yards per catch average usually hovers around 10, ripped off 165 yards and a touchdown on 13 receptions. But all those touchdowns came after the Dolphins were shut out in the first half, which doomed them against an explosive Jets offense.</p><div class=. AFC East. 4-7. Miami Dolphins. 12. player. 59
If the Dolphins take care of business against the Ravens, Giants and Chargers in the next three games, they will put themselves in the odd position of being a playoff team without the top three coaching staff pieces that began the season. The NFL is weird.
