Dolphins want to prove at Green Bay they can beat good team in the cold
MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins pounded the New England Patriots, 34-15, on Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium.
The Dolphins are 5-6, on a three-game win streak, and headed to frigid Green Bay for a Thanksgiving clash.
Tua Tagovailoa, Jaylen Waddle, Chop Robinson and Zach Sieler all shined for the Dolphins.
Would the Dolphins have a shot at the playoffs with a 9-8 record? Probably not.
At 10-7, with a 5-1 finish, they’re certainly right in the NFL Playoffs mix.
