Overview: Y2K was 24 years ago, and
that was the last time the Dolphins
won a playoff game. The good news for
Miami fans is that coach Mike McDaniel has the Dolphins moving in the right
direction, posting back-to-back winning
seasons and playoff appearances. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is coming off
a career year in which he led the NFL
in passing yards (4,624). Miami will
compete for the AFC East crown and is
a good bet to make the playoffs and end
its postseason win drought.
