The 2016 Miami Dolphins enjoyed a resurgent season under first-year head coach Adam Gase, finishing with a 10-6 record and securing their first playoff berth since 2008. After a 1-4 start, the team rallied behind a breakout season from running back Jay Ajayi, who recorded three 200-yard rushing games, and a strong passing attack led by Ryan Tannehill and Jarvis Landry. Winning nine of their final eleven games, the Dolphins demonstrated remarkable resilience to end an eight-year postseason drought.
