Things we learned in Miami Dolphins' 16-13 OT victory over the Washington Commanders
"The Dolphins are now 5-12 (.294) in prime time games under coach Mike McDaniel, who took over in 2022. The Dolphins were 3-10 in prime time games under McDaniel entering the season. This season they've lost to Buffalo on Thursday, 31-21, defeated the New York Jets on Monday, 27-21, and lost to Baltimore on Thursday's 28-6, making them 4-12 going into the Washington game."
"McDaniel tried to be a bully late in the fourth quarter and win it on a touchdown instead of a 20-some yard field goal. It didn't work. Running back Ollie Gordon II was stuffed on fourth and goal from the Washington 1-yard line with the game tied at 13. Fortunately for McDaniel and the Dolphins it turned into a victory because Washington missed a 56-yard field goal attempt wide right at the end of regulation."
The Miami Dolphins defeated the Washington Commanders 16-13 in overtime in Madrid, earning back-to-back wins and improving to 4-7 heading into a bye week. Washington ran effectively and limited big plays, making the game tougher than recent form suggested. Miami's prime-time record under coach Mike McDaniel sits at 5-12, with two prime-time games remaining. McDaniel opted to attempt a touchdown on fourth-and-goal from the 1 instead of a short field goal late in the fourth quarter; the run was stopped and regulation ended when Washington missed a 56-yard field goal wide right. An overtime interception by Jack Jones secured the winning possession after a muffed punt recovery.
