When it comes to passing yards the Miami defense fell all the way down to 25th in 2011.

No clear-cut answer at QB in Miami
The long-term quarterbacking answer is on the roster.
The short-term solution is less clear.
Ryan Tannehill has displayed the early earmarks of being the franchise passer the Miami Dolphins have sorely lacked since Dan Marino's retirement 12 years ago. But whether the 2012 first-round pick starts the season on the field or the bench isn't clear quite yet.
