MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Reviews on the weather were mixed Sunday at the Miami Dolphins-Arizona Cardinals game.Every time we got the ball it seemed like it was pouring, like a monsoon, Cardinals receiver J.J. Nelson said. Ive never played in anything like that.Dolphins receiver Jarvis Landry found the rain fun.When you think about football, you dream about this type of game, he said.Guess which team won.Frequent heavy showers made for a sloppy game, and the Cardinals were unable to overcome four turnovers in the first 20 minutes, losing 26-23 .Carson Palmer threw two interceptions and lost a fumble when he bobbled a snap . David Johnson also lost a fumble. A slick ball contributed to all four giveaways by a team accustomed to desert conditions, not monsoons.We practiced with a wet ball on Wednesday and didnt have any problems, Arizona coach Bruce Arians said. But when it continually pours when you have the ball, which was kind of odd, its tough.Palmer agreed the timing on the passing showers was weird.Every time we had the ball, it just started turning on and staying on, Palmer said. Then it would stop.Turnovers are a big reason the Cardinals (5-7-1) will likely sit out the playoffs. They have 26 turnovers this year, two more than in 2015, when they went 13-3.Road missteps have been a chronic problem too. Arizona is 1-5 away from home, including 0-4 in games in the Eastern time zone. Last season the Cardinals went 8-1 away from home.In Miami, turnovers were far from the only issue. Palmer threw for only 145 yards. Larry Fitzgerald had just 12 yards receiving. Johnson, who came into the game leading the NFL in touchdowns, was kept out of the end zone.Chander Catanzaro missed a field-goal attempt and two extra points, with one blocked PAT returned for a 2-point conversion by Walt Aikens , who didnt mind the weather a bit.What weather? Aikens said. Football weather. Perfect. Not so much for the offense, but for the defense. Reminds me of my childhood.The blocked kick and Aikens score with 7:05 left represented a three-point swing, which turned out to be the difference in the game.So it has gone in 2016 for the Cardinals.The ball, Palmer said, has not bounced our way once.---For more NFL coverage: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Steve-Wine.

Robredo, ranked No. 16, bounced back from an upset loss to Leonardo Mayer in the second round of the Royal Guard Open in Chile last week to down Carreno Busta in 1 hour, 25 minutes.

Still boast a hard-edge midfield, a superb defence and multi-pronged attack. And their ability to win big games is legendary.GEELONG (2nd, 10-4, 139.2%)To come: Sydney (home), Fremantle (away), Adelaide (home), Western Bulldogs (home), Essendon (home), Richmond (away), Brisbane (away), Melbourne (home)Against top eight teams: 3Predicted finish: 1st (18-4)Flag favourites who have dates with three other top-eight sides but, crucially, all are at home where they rarely lose. Will bolster their already-healthy percentage in the final four rounds, which should be enough to secure top spot.

Have plenty of attacking options, are the second-highest scoring club this season, and have the second-best percentage. But the great unknown is: will their lack of finals experience count against them in September?SYDNEY (4th, 10-4, 137%)To come: Geelong (away), Hawthorn (home), Carlton (home), Fremantle (away), Port Adelaide (home), St Kilda (away), North Melbourne (away), Richmond (home)Against top eight teams: 3Predicted finish: 5th (17-5)Premiership odds: $6.00Face two telling weeks with fixtures against the Cats and then Hawthorn. And while Lance Franklin headlines their attack, it is defence which gets the job done for the Swans: they have conceded the least points of any club (average score against is 70.2 points). The second-lowest scorers in the top eight, and prospects of a top-four finish could come down to percentage.ADELAIDE (5th, 10-4, 128.6%)Too come: Carlton (away), Collingwood (home), Geelong (away), Essendon (home), Brisbane (home), Fremantle (away), Port Adelaide (away), West Coast (home)Against top eight teams: 2Predicted finish: 4th (17-5)The highest-scoring side in the competition, averaging 113 points a game.dddddddddddd And the Crows can expect a whopping percentage boost in the run home with games against Essendon and Brisbane, both at home, and Fremantle away.

Their reputation as a freewheeling side is a myth: theyre the lowest-scoring side in the top eight. But they are ranked the best defensive unit and are ranked second behind Sydney for winning contested ball.NORTH MELBOURNE (7th, 10-4, 116.6%)To come: West Coast (away), Port Adelaide (home), Collingwood (away), St Kilda (home), Western Bulldogs (away), Hawthorn (away), Sydney (away), GWS (home)Against top eight teams: 5Predicted finish: 8th (14-8)The early pacesetters have slipped with four losses in their past five matches - and all those defeats have been against fellow top-eight sides. Have the lowest percentage of any side in the eight and also have the toughest run home: they meet five fellow finalists, and their last four games before the playoffs are all against sides currently above it on the ladder.WEST COAST (8th, 9-5, 134.8%)To come: North Melbourne (home), Carlton (away), Melbourne (home), Collingwood (away), Fremantle (away), GWS (away), Hawthorn (home), Adelaide (away)Against top eight teams: 4Predicted finish: 7th (14-8)Last years beaten grand finalists may struggle to make an imprint on the finals, given they battle to win on the road - and will likely face an away elimination final in week one of the playoffs.
