It’s a seven-month wait to see what the Miami Dolphins look like in Mike McDaniel’s second year as head coach — but we can still talk about it.
Miami finished the 2022 regular season with a record of 9-8, earning a trip to the playoffs despite a five-game losing streak late in the year.
The Dolphins came within three points of upsetting the Buffalo Bills with rookie seventh-round pick Skylar Thompson behind center but ultimately fell short 34-31.
While the late-season skid soured expectations, a lively performance in the Wild Card round is a reason to be optimistic about Miami headed into the 2023 season.
