The Miami Dolphins’ 2022 campaign was one of the most intriguing in recent memory.
Obviously, the string of five-straight wins followed by five-straight losses really guided the ship, but, when Week 18 was over, the Dolphins were in the postseason for the first time in six years.
Head coach Mike McDaniel got his team to play with pride and emotion despite not having quarterback Tua Tagovailoa for a number of games this season due to concussions.
With their quest for a Lombardi Trophy officially coming to a close, it’s time we look back at the year through the lens of Pro Football Focus to see just how those in aqua and orange graded out.
