Reality smacked the Dolphins square in the face on Sunday in Houston as the Texans ended any Miami Dolphins playoff hopes, suffering a 20-12 loss to the playoff bound Texans. The cold facts indicate that the Fins are still very much a work in progress, highlighted by a weak running game, an average offensive line, and a gifted but limited quarterback in today’s game of phenomenal, duel-threat athletes playing the position such as Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Pat Mahomes, Kyler Murray, Bo Nix, Jordan Love, et al.
