Sitting at 7-4, the Miami Dolphins have already surpassed expectations for a team in the second year of a full scale rebuild. Head Coach Brian Flores has done a commendable job creating a solid defense and maximizing the output of his players on the offensive side of the ball.
This team is nowhere near complete, but they have played well enough over the course of the season to legitimately have a shot at the playoffs. The playoffs are not guaranteed, however, but Miami can get there, if they win the games they should win.
This should be an obvious statement: win more games than the other teams and you make it to the playoffs; win the “winnable” games.
