For one half of football, it looked like the Miami Dolphins were going to start their playoff push by dispatching a reeling Green Bay franchise in front of their home crowd. The offense was explosive, the running game was consistent, Tua Tagovailoa was deadly accurate, and the defense was solid. It looked like their formula for winning in December and January.
Maybe that still will be their formula for winning some games down the stretch and in the postseason, but they looked like a very different team in the second half. The defense held up, but the running game stalled and Tua Tagovailoa had the worst quarter of his football playing career (by a wide margin).
