The margin for error is gone. The Dolphins remain in control of their playoff destiny, at least for now.

With Tua Tagovailoa back in the concussion protocol and all but ruled out for Sunday, the Dolphins are preparing for Teddy Bridgewater to start a massive Week 17 clash in Foxboro with the New England Patriots. A loss wouldn’t mean elimination for the Dolphins, but it would be a 5th straight loss and require the Dolphins to win in Week 18 AND get help elsewhere. Additionally, Xavien Howard has picked up a new knee injury and Bradley Chubb and Alec Ingold are both questionable with hand injuries.

In spite of all of this, the Dolphins are still the better team from top to bottom and SHOULD be able to get a win on the road…IF they can play a clean game, while avoiding additional injuries.

Aaron and Josh are back to discuss it all on another episode of THE SAME OLD DOLPHINS SHOW at DolphinsTalk.com!
