The Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints closed out Week 16 of the 2021 NFL season with a Monday night showdown. The Dolphins did not seem to find their rhythm until the second half, then turned it on to dominate the Saints down the stretch. The Saints finished the game 0-12 on third down and quarterback Ian Book, making his first career start, was sacked eight times. Things went well for the Miami defense.
With the win, the Dolphins are now in the seventh seed position in the AFC playoff picture and are the first team in NFL history to have a seven-game losing streak and a seven-game winning streak in the same season.
