The Dolphins' season began promisingly, with three straight wins. Since then, their play has declined precipitously, and an ugly scandal has dominated conversation in the NFL. Fins quarterback Ryan Tannehill discussed the challenge of forging ahead under a dark cloud.

"Right now we're focused on sticking together as a team, having each others' backs as a team, and getting ready to play a football game," Tannehill said. "At the end of the day, we're playing a Tampa Bay team on the road on Monday. So we have to deal with this, yes, but we also have to get ready to play a football game."

Last week the Dolphins squeaked out a win with an overtime safety, that linebacker Cameron Wake could barely believe. "It's almost like a movie moment," Wake said.

The Bucs have dealt with their own controversies this season, from a MRSA outbreak that embarrassed the organization, and the rapid meltdown of opening week starting quarterback Josh Freeman. They nearly upset the Seahawks in Seattle last week, and running back Mike James, replacing the injured Doug Martin, chewed up 158 yards on the ground in the effort.

"Those are things that are getting us excited and encouraged," Schiano said. "Three games without an interception. That's how we have to play the game. I'm mad at myself for not getting us there sooner."
