With their season resuscitated, the Miami Dolphins (5-6) travel to Lambeau Field on Thanksgiving for a game against Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers (8-3).
Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins have won three straight to pull to within one game of .500 and more importantly within one game of a playoff berth while Jordan Love and the Packers remain in firm control of a Wild Card berth and within shouting distance of the Lions and Vikings in the NFC North.
This past Sunday, the Dolphins dominated New England building a 31-0 lead before ultimately winning 34-15. Tagovailoa threw 4 TD passes and the Miami defense limited the Pats to under 275 yards. Meanwhile, the Packers cruised to an impressive win of their own. Josh Jacobs rushed for 106 yards and 3 TDs to lead Green Bay to a win at Lambeau over the banged up and floundering 49ers.
Speaking of Lambeau, the forecast is calling for freezing temps Thursday night. We know Jordan Love and the Packers can handle the cold. We also know the Dolphins have had issues venturing to venues up north during the holiday season.
