"And more wins could be coming, something that would keep the the Dolphins, who rushed for 241 yards Sunday, in the AFC wild-card playoff race. The Dolphins (6-7) are among the NFL's hottest teams, and they're getting hot in November and December, which is the time of the year to start reeling off victories. Also, the Dolphins are still fairly healthy, which hasn't been the trend of recent seasons."
"If you consider "cold weather" 45 degrees or below, the Dolphins are now 1-5 in cold weather games in the McDaniel-QB Tua Tagovailoa era. They lost at Buffalo (32-29) in the 2022 regular season, at Buffalo (34-31) in the 2022 playoffs, at Kansas City (26-7) in the 2023 playoffs, at Green Bay on Thanksgiving last season (30-17), and lost at the New York Jets (32-20) in last season's finale."
The Miami Dolphins have won four straight games and improved to 6-7 following a 34-10 victory in which they rushed for 241 yards. The team remains relatively healthy and has generated momentum with strong November and December performances. Attendance at MetLife Stadium appeared light, with an estimated 60% occupancy. The Dolphins recorded their first McDaniel-era cold-weather win with a 41-degree kickoff but still sit 1-5 in games defined as 45 degrees or below. The team carries late-season momentum into a pivotal Monday night matchup at Pittsburgh as playoff hopes persist.
