Head coach Frank Reich is eager to break the bad spell and turn things around as they challenge the Dolphins.

Meanwhile, the hosts try to bounce back from a 31-28 overtime defeat to the Raiders last Sunday. Now second in the AFC East, tied with the Patriots, a win gives the Dolphins a tighter grip at the spot. And if things go in their favor, we might even see them take the top spot in the division.
