Coming off of the Miami Miracle, fans became hopeful that the Miami Dolphins could push for a playoff berth in the team’s final three games. With a tough matchup at Minnesota looming, the thought was that the Dolphins could carry the momentum from their amazing victory over the Patriots. Unfortunately, that would not be the case as Miami’s road woes continued in their 41-17 lopsided loss to the Vikings.
The Dolphins are still mathematically in the playoffs, but they need to win out, and get some help in the process. The odds are not in their favor, and even if Miami did manage to sneak into the playoffs, we saw from Sunday that they would have an early exit.
