Sun Sentinel Miami Dolphins beat writer, Omar Kelly joined the Big O Show on 560 WQAM to discuss the Miami Dolphins match up against the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday. They also talk about Mike Pouncey's injury status, the blowout loss to Baltimore and quarterback Ryan Tannehill.

On Mike Pouncey's injury concerns- "You probably need to figure out a plan B."

On the loss to the Baltimore- "They're not playoff ready, Baltimore showed you what a playoff team looks like. It doesn't undo the previous six weeks."

On Ryan Tannehill- "Ryan Tannehill isn't the problem with this team. Everything you're seeing from Tannehill is fiction."

On Tannehill's progress this season- "Ryan Tannehill is a much better quarterback than last year. I don't think he's a Super Bowl winning quarterback unless you have a top 5 defense."

On Kiko Alonso- "If he doesn't play, you're not going to win."

On the Dolphins defense without Kiko Alonso- "I like [Mike] Hull, but let's not pretend that prayer isn't required."
