The story of the 2020 Miami Dolphins is certainly an unpredictable one. It is hard to imagine a 10-win team missing the cut for the playoffs — especially with the league kicking the tires on a new format that allowed seven teams from each conference to earn a spot in the dance.
Miami’s hype train was ahead of schedule in 2020. The team had a chance to prove they belonged and Brian Flores, the team’s second-year head coach, was viewed as a potential coach of the year candidate.
With one game left in a year most will never forget, the Dolphins had a chance to prove they belonged in the same breathe as the AFC’s best, but a 28-point second quarter and a 21-point fourth quarter by the Bills will be a lasting memory until the 2021 season is underway.
