Mike McDaniel avoids disaster in Madrid after surviving his own huge blunder

The 2025 season is still alive for the Miami Dolphins after they came back to beat the Washington Commanders in Madrid, Spain. The NFL's first trip to the country provided fans with an enjoyable second half, at least.

Miami suffered through three quarters of shooting themselves in the foot before finally getting something going late in the 3rd and early in the 4th. It was enough to keep fans' hopes alive for another two weeks.

Mike McDaniel's late-game decision to go for it on 4th and two from the Commanders' goal line almost set the team up for a brutal loss.
