Dolphins Stun Buccaneers in Close Battle, But Tampa Bay Playoff Hopes Still Alive
In a thrilling Week 17 matchup, the Miami Dolphins edged out the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a score of 20-17, marking a significant win for the Dolphins as rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers shined, throwing two touchdown passes including a 63-yard strike to Theo Wease Jr. Despite the loss, the Buccaneers remain in the playoff hunt due to a fortunate outcome from other games in the NFC South. However, their performance against the Dolphins highlighted ongoing struggles, particularly with turnovers, as Baker Mayfield faced a tough day against a resilient Miami defense. As the season winds down, both teams look ahead to pivotal matchups that could determine their futures.
