Here's an interesting change of pace: A star receiver wants his team to throw less, run more. And Miami's Mike Wallace is willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen.
With a matchup against the AFC East leading New England Patriots (5-1) slated for Week 8, the Miami Dolphins (3-2) would be wise not to take the Buffalo Bills (2-4) lightly, even without the services of rookie sensation, E.J. Manuel under center.
After a 3-0 start, the Saints and Ravens exposed some of Miami's weaknesses, sending the Dolphins into the bye week sporting the first losing streak of the year. Having reached the quarter mark of the season, here are some early "Studs vs. Duds" awards for the 2013-14 Miami Dolphins.
The Miami Dolphins are on a record-breaking pace when it comes to quarterback sacks, but the team may also set another record for futility, fewest rushing yards in a season.
After a perfect start, Miami's losing streak is predicated on the well-documented woes of its offensive line. And while protecting Ryan Tannehill and getting the running game going aren't the Dolphins only concerns, they certainly merit being at the top of Joe Philbin's priority list.
In 2002, the Houston Texans made quarterback David Carr the number one overall pick in the NFL Draft. Carr came to Houston ready to start with the new franchise. Instead, he spent his first year running for his life. The Dolphins are in danger of repeating history with quarterback Ryan Tannehill.
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill and Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco are both likely eager to get back on the field after Week 4 losses.
With a reported 10 injured players, the Dolphins staff is working around the clock to try and have as many able bodies as possible for Sunday's showdown with the defending Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens. Opening kickoff is slated for 1:05 p.m. ET from Sun Life Stadium on CBS4.

Mike Wallace expected to be a big play, deep threat wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins when he signed a $60 million contract in the offseason. But a quarter of the way through the season, Wallace hasn't produced many big plays and it has him worried.
The Miami Dolphins pass blocking has been brutal across the board. From bad offensive line play to poor blitz pickup by running backs, it's all contributed to quarterback Ryan Tannehill getting sacked at a pace that would result in 72 sacks on the season.
The Miami Dolphins brought wide receiver Mike Wallace in to blow the tops off of defenses with deep passing maximizing his speed. Through four games this season, Wallace hasn't been able to use his speed and the Fins are struggling with the deep ball.
Even though the post-Lewis era hasn't gotten off to the start John Harbaugh envisioned, underestimating the (2-2) Baltimore Ravens could prove to be a costly mistake for Joe Philbin and the (3-1) Miami Dolphins heading into their Week 5 showdown at Sun Life Stadium.
The Miami Dolphins pass blocking has been the focus of much consternation all season long. Monday night's game won't do anything to quell much of that talk.
The Miami Dolphins managed to win the first three games of the season with a subpar running game and weak pass blocking. But Monday night, both of those elements came back to haunt the Dolphins as Drew Brees and the New York Saints took the Fins apart in a 38-17 thumping.
