NFL team stats: Dolphins offense, defense, special teams rankings at end of 2023 season

The Miami Dolphins may have come up short of their ultimate goal and had some struggles down the stretch, but they accomplished many things throughout the regular season.

In their second year under head coach Mike McDaniel, Miami finished the 17-game schedule with an 11-6 which was an improvement from 2022, when they went 9-8.

While we’ve taken the time to break down some of the statistics and rankings of the individuals on the field, we haven’t yet done so for the team, as a whole.

Let’s do that now.
