The Miami Dolphins have seen their NFL power rankings hovering around the middle of the league over the last couple of weeks, falling from a top ten team to 15 two weeks ago after their loss to the Baltimore Ravens, then plateauing as the rankings tried to figure out what to do with Miami after a win over the Arizona Cardinals but an injury to quarterback Ryan Tannehill.
This week, with the four-touchdown pass performance from Matt Moore and the Dolphins’ 34-13 win in Week 15 keeping the team in the Playoff hunt and clinching the franchise’s first winning season since 2008, the power rankings are beginning to move Miami back up.
