To avoid fading into the background, however, Miami must take care of the Tennessee Titans (3-6) at home.Tennessee quarterback Jake Locker is expected to start after missing five games with a shoulder injury and will have the chance to attack a depleted Dolphins' secondary.DECIDING FACTORS:Slow down CJ?K. Despite struggling for the better part of last season and the first nine games of 2012, Johnson remains a dangerous weapon that can score from any point on the field.

Philbin benched two starters -- tailback Reggie Bush and left guard Richie Incognito -- for their mindless plays during Miami's embarrassing loss. Bush, who ended with 21 yards on four carries, was...

The Dolphins got ambushed Sunday, and it wasn't a good day for running back Reggie Bush.
After fumbling early during a 37-3 loss to the Titans, Bush was benched for the final 23 minutes of the first half. Bush wasn't angry after the game, saying he earned a place on the sideline.
