DAVIE, Fla. -- As Kenyan Drake crossed the goal line to complete the Miami Miracle on Sunday, several Dolphins coaches and players jumped on coach Adam Gase. He was wrapped up like a tamale by players and assistants. A minute or two later, defensive tackle Akeem Spence bear-hugged him in celebration. Nearly everybody on Miami's sideline predictably erupted with raw energy.
Gase? He offered some smirks, smiles and handshakes, but mostly he remained Joe Cool.
That moment sticks out amid the weird happenings that often surround the Dolphins. Despite the overflow of injuries to key players, Gase has kept his team steady and cool.
