On Halloween the 2021 Miami Dolphins were, historically speaking, dead.
That day Miami lost to the Buffalo Bills to fall to 1-7. No NFL team has gone from 1-7 to the playoffs. Even with the extra week this season and the expanded playoff field, it was crazy to think Miami could make a playoff push.
Two months later, the Dolphins currently hold the No. 7 seed in the AFC playoffs.
The Dolphins moved into the bracket for now with a 20-3 win over the New Orleans Saints.
