As he embraced a fresh start Monday Minkah Fitzpatrick Jersey , cracked a couple of jokes, such as when he noted the phalanx of photographers nearly drowning out his first news conference with the Miami Dolphins.“These clicks,” he said with a chuckle, “are loud.”Rosen does attract clicks, which is a big change for a Dolphins team low on star power. It has been so long since they had a Pro Bowl quarterback that Rosen referred to him as “Mr. Marino.”Despite a rough rookie season that prompted the Arizona Cardinals to discard him, Rosen still believes he can be a Dan Marino-type franchise quarterback. And he’s glad to get an opportunity with the Dolphins, who are eager to stop a revolving door at the position that has gone through 19 starters since Marino’s last game 20 years ago.“I couldn’t be more excited to be here,” Rosen said. “Very rarely do you get a second chance to make a first impression.”As for motivation, Rosen’s crooked grin grew wider when he was asked about any chip on his shoulder.“I don’t think my chip has to grow any more,” he said. “I might tip over.”More Miami Dolphins newsDolphins sign veteran lineman Jordan Mills to 1-year, $3 million contractJosh Rosen believes he can be Dan Marino-type franchise quarterback with DolphinsDolphins new QB Josh Rosen bids goodbye to Arizona, congratulates Kyler MurrayDolphins bolster defense, provide Josh Rosen with another shot to be franchise QBDolphins acquire QB Josh Rosen from Cardinals for 62nd pick, 5th-rounder in 2020He was the 10th overall pick in the 2018 draft but became expendable in Arizona last week when the Cardinals used the No. 1 overall pick to select Kyler Murray. A day later, the Dolphins acquired him for two draft picks to become part of their rebuilding effort under first-year coach Brian Flores.“I felt like I got drafted twice Mike Gesicki Jersey ,” he said.Rosen took no jabs at the Cardinals and acknowledged that in Miami he faces a one-year tryout . If he doesn’t play well this season, the Dolphins will likely have a poor record and be well-positioned to take a QB early in the first round in 2020.Rosen also acknowledged his image needs work. Doubts about his leadership and personality linger despite efforts by Arizona teammates and coaches to dispel them.He said the issue dates to his years at UCLA.“I didn’t have all my answers as perfectly crafted as I do now,” he said. “I said some things off the cuff, and people misconstrued them. …“I think I’m a really good teammate. What I’ve tried to do is not say or do anything extra, just kind of be me and keep my head down, and eventually the story will straighten out. I think it has for the most part. Time and consistency are the best medicine to cure the narrative.”With that in mind, Rosen had answers ready when asked about:— competing for the starting job with another Dolphins newcomer, veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick. “The timing on whether I play or not is not up to me.”— Pro Football Hall of Famer Marino. “Hopefully I can follow in some semblance of his massive footsteps.”— his belief that he can become a franchise QB. “I think I’m a good quarterback, and I think I’m a good leader.”The Dolphins hope he’s right.2018 NFL Power Rankings Week 4: Dolphins undefeated and rising Yesterday kind of got away from me, so I ended up running out of time before I could put together our weekly tour of the 2018 NFL Power Rankings from around the web. Of course, I wanted to make sure we got back to them, and now it is time to see what is being said about the Miami Dolphins around the internet.Below, you will find the Week 4 power rankings for the Dolphins, along with the change from last week and any write up if there was one. At the bottom of the page, we take a look at the highest single week and average ranking for Miami this year, as well as the lowest for both of those.Buy your Stop Doubting Us shirt here!SB Nation - Rebecca TobackThis week: 5Change: Up 7Last week Jason Sanders Jersey , there were still some questions to be answered about the undefeated Dolphins, but we can’t keep denying their success. Miami is moving up to the No. 5 spot this week, close behind the also undefeated Rams and Chiefs.Niners Nation - David FucilloThis week: 4Change: Up 6Bleeding Green Nation - Brandon Lee GowtonThis week: 4Change: Up 15Well, I don’t think the Dolphins have beaten anyone really great, but here they are at 3-0 and on top of the AFC East.NFL.com - Elliot HarrisonThis week: 10Change: Up 7The Dolphins have earned this spot, whether you believe in them or not. Ryan Tannehill has played excellent football for three weeks running, highlighted by a 17-of-23 effort with 289 yards and three touchdowns against the Raiders. No picks, either. Don’t forget Albert Wilson’s turn at quarterback. The defense was as shaky as it’s been thus far, but the unit made up for it by creating two turnovers, one of which sealed the win. Concern? Inconsistency in the run game. Miami must be effective on the ground to be more than a wild-card one-and-done.ESPNThis week: 8Change: Up 8The Dolphins average the third-lowest time of possession per game (26:46). That could be because their opponents convert on 80 percent of their third-down rushes, tied for the second-highest rate in the NFL. -- Joey KoontzCBS Sports - Pete PriscoThis week: 4Change: Up 8They head to New England this week in first place with a chance to take a strong command of the division. Adam Gase has done a heck of a job.Yahoo! Sports - Frank SchwabThis week: 9Change: Up 6Don’t worry Dolphins fans, your team gets a chance to prove it’s for real next week at New England. We’ll talk again after that.Sporting News - Vinnie IyerThis week: 6Change: Up 14Adam Gase has silenced all the critics who questioned the team’s personnel turnover in the offseason.

And it’s been done with special teams scores, defensive touchdowns and trick plays—the Dolphins have thrown the kitchen sink at their opponents.But 3-0 is 3-0...and after coming back to down the Raiders at home in Week 3, the Dolphins are in a position that has historically produced many more playoff trips than not.However Raekwon McMillan Jersey , the last time the Dolphins started 3-0 (2013) Miami proceeded to lose four in a row, finishing 8-8 and out of the postseason. The Dolphins haven’t started 3-0 and finished the season with a winning record since all the way back in 2002.Given that history and Miami’s less-than-stellar opposition to date, Davenport remains a bit skeptical.”The Dolphins may be better than we thought,” he said. “But that doesn’t make them good. You want some dap, Dolphins? Beat the Patriots in Gillette next week. Heck, just give New England a run for its money and I’ll have a much easier time buying this team is for real. Right now, 3-0 or not, I don’t.”Gagnon echoed those sentiments.”They can’t control who they play,” he said, “but beating the Titans, Jets and Raiders by one score each doesn’t mean a whole lot, especially with two of those victories coming at home. If they hang with the Patriots in Week 4, I’ll move them way up in my rankings.”The Washington Post - Mark MaskeThis week: 7Change: Up 4Will there actually be a legitimate challenger this season in the AFC East, the division won by the Patriots in nine straight seasons and 14 of the last 15? The Dolphins have their chance to send an early-season message when they travel to New England on Sunday.Sports Illustrated/MMQB - MMQB StaffThis week: 9Change: Up 6Fansided - Matt VerderameThis week: 16Change: Up 7The Dolphins are 3-0, but now they get a real test.
