The Miami Dolphins were handed their eighth loss of the season, and fifth in as many weeks, on Sunday, as they were defeated by the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium.
Miami entered the game bruised and battered, and throughout the game, they lost more players. However, that’s no excuse when they’ve lost four prior to this game, and they were facing another team dealing with ailments to their best unit.
While the fan base is certainly disappointed in the team’s collapse, they can find solace in knowing that former Dolphin Larry Csonka is right by their side.
Csonka took to social media to share his thoughts on the loss.
Sad. I had high hopes but injuries and mistakes have taken their toll #MIAvsPAT #MiamiDolphins #FinsUp

It’s one thing to disappoint a fan base that, for the most part, will always ride with the team, but it’s another thing completely to upset a legend who once donned the uniform.
Miami has one game left in the season, and they’ll need to win, as well as get some help from other teams, if they want to make it to the postseason for the first time since 2016.
