NFL Playoff Picture 2021: Dolphins holding on through Week 14 bye

The Miami Dolphins come of their bye week still needing a lot of help from around the AFC to fight their way from a fringe team in the 2021 NFL playoff picture to a team in realistic position to make a run. The Dolphins are doing everything they can to fight back from a 1-7 start, having won their last five games, but Week 14 actually hurt the team in their comeback attempt.

According to FiveThirtyEight.com, Miami entered Week 14 with an 11 percent chance to make the playoffs. No team has ever gone from 1-7 to the postseason, so Miami being in double-digit chances seems to show just how much they have turned around their season already.
