CUP OF JOE: The Dolphins are SO SOFT
Since losing to the Ravens back on October 30, the Dolphins reeled off 4 straight wins on the heels of a strong running game, averaging 192 yards per game by ground during that stretch. Meanwhile the Steelers, the Dolphins Monday Night opponent, have struggled defending the run. It seemed reasonable to think the Dolphins had a fighter’s chance last night because a productive running game travels well and it stands up against frigid conditions.
The Dolphins even took some extra time to arrive in Pittsburgh early and get acclimated to Western PA’s winter wonderland. Maybe, I thought, this Dolphins team was different than their predecessors who haven’t won a playoff game in a quarter of a century

Unfortunately, these are the same old Dolphins. The same old soft team that shrivels in the cold and shits the bed in meaningful games. Their effort in Pittsburgh last night amounted to nothing more than sushi served on ice.
How could I fall for this trap? Why would I possibly think that Flipper could beat a steelworker along the shores of the Monongahela River? The Dolphins. Even their name is soft, modeled after a sea mammal that feeds on guppies, jumps through hoops at aquariums across the world and even smiles at you when it breaks the water’s surface.
And speaking of smiling, while being handed his frozen ass, Tua Tagovailoa sported a big old grin while laughing along the sidelines in Q4 as the Steelers skull-dragged fish heads through the cow dung pasture called Acrisure Stadium. Afterwards there were Dolphins fans defending Tua’s performance.

The fans are as soft as the team. Let’s put some perspective on this.
The Steelers took a 28-3 lead early in the 4th quarter. At that time, Tagovailoa was 6 for 10 for 72 yards and an INT. That’s a passer rating of 42.5. The game was over when Tua started chucking it all over the Steelers prevent defense. His final numbers are the epitome of stat padding during garbage time when he was 16 of 18 for 181 yards and 2 scores.

They should just change the name of the Dolphins to the Snowbirds. Why not? The fans are more concerned about SPF than they are TDs. And the players that go there REALLY don’t think they have a chance to win. They, like the snowbirds, follow the sunshine along with the hefty salaries the Dolphins shell out to vets on the move seeking shelter from State income taxes.
Without a comeback, Dolphins will fall to
0-14 streak when under 40 degrees
0-6 for Tua as starter when 40 degrees or colder
4-13 in primetime under Mike McDaniel
25th straight season without playoff win— Joe Schad (@schadjoe) December 16, 2025
I was totally duped into thinking that the Dolphins could beat the Steelers in a meaningful game. Thankfully I’m not a Dolphins’ fan. They’re duped annually into thinking their team actually cares.
But hey, at least the players got to play and laugh in the snow for an hour or so.
