The Miami Dolphins have lost 11 of their last 12 home games, including a Week 2 loss to the Houston Texans, and LB Jason Taylor admitted that some of the players are starting to lose confidence. "To be honest, we have," Taylor said. "Not everybody, but I'm sure there's a faction of the group that's trying to figure this thing out, figure out where we are. That's kind of the product of losing sometimes, you start to question, second-guess a little bit, question what you're doing as a team. And until you win, those things will linger out there a little bit."

Taylor has incentive bonuses tied to his sack total this year, which is currently at four. If he finishes with fewer than seven sacks, a $750,000 guarantee for the 2011 season will be lost.
