The Miami Dolphins were able to secure their eighth victory of the season on Sunday, as they defeated the Houston Texans in an afternoon matchup.
Mike McDaniel’s team had one of the most intriguing games of the season in Week 12, as they won 30-15, but the score wasn’t indicative of how the game was played. Miami’s offense and defense were rolling in the first half, but the final two quarters were not quite as impressive.
