From the episode

Malik Willis is not playing very well. I don't really know what else there is to say about it. I mean, you look at the box score and that'll tell you with the two picks, but you just watch the process down to down. It's just all over the place.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Willis's process is erratic; chemistry issues and weak deep game plague Dolphins.

Malik Willis is not playing well for the Dolphins. The source describes his process as all over the place, with two interceptions in Week 5. The analysis notes Willis was a backup for his entire career before this and that the Dolphins' deep passing game is not very good, compounding the issue. Chemistry problems with a young receiver core that hasn't played with Willis before, combined with offensive line issues, are contributing factors. The source suggests the Dolphins are headed toward a 1-2 win season and a top draft pick reset.
