MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — The Miami Dolphins know their margin for error is microscopic as the team vies for a rare AFC playoff spot.
Ryan Tannehill was heading out the door when someone noted the predicted high temperature of 83 for Sunday’s game between the Dolphins and New England Patriots.
“Not quite hot enough,” Tannehill responded with a smile.
Turn up the heat. That’s what the Dolphins tend to do when the Patriots play in Miami.
While New England has dominated Miami — and everyone else — in the AFC East over the past decade, the reverse has been true lately when the teams meet in South Florida.
