Sure, they were able to win some games, but they weren\u2019t high-pressure games.<span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-182\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/23058284193,22531816661\/gridironheroics_com-large-leaderboard-2_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"ezoic-ad ezoic-at-0 large-leaderboard-2 large-leaderboard-2182 adtester-container adtester-container-182\" data-ez-name=\"gridironheroics_com-large-leaderboard-2\"><span id=\"div-gpt-ad-gridironheroics_com-large-leaderboard-2-0\" class=\"ezoic-ad ezoic-adl\" data-google-query-id=\"\"><\/span><span class=\"reportline\" data-nosnippet=\"\" data-ez-ph-owner-id=\"182\"><span class=\"ezoicwhat\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"ezoic\" src=\"https:\/\/go.ezodn.com\/utilcave_com\/ezoicbwa.png\" alt=\"Ezoic\" name=\"?pageview_id=dcbe929c-c304-4353-7f86-7c4bdd083ee4&amp;ad_position_id=182&amp;impression_group_id=gridironheroics_com-large-leaderboard-2\/2024-12-01\/8638946469814493&amp;ad_size=250x250&amp;domain_id=356191&amp;url=https:\/\/gridironheroics.com\/former-miami-dolphins-rb-slams-mike-mcdaniel\/\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-112\" data-inserter-version=\"2\"><\/span>The Miami Dolphins finished Thursday\u2019s game with just 14 carries for 39 yards, and since Week 9\u2019s loss against the Buffalo Bills, Miami has averaged 63.25 yards per game on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>From the beginning of Thursday\u2019s matchup against\u00a0Green Bay, Miami\u2019s defense struggled early, and were turning the ball over left and right.

With a victory over the Jets, the Dolphins can be sitting at the .500 mark.
