After the loss to the Patriots, the Dolphins are officially locked into the sixth seed. The Dolphins will travel to the Steel City to take on the Steelers. This makes it bad for me as I live in the middle of Steeler Country, so I'm going to be dealing with smack talk all week. But I am so happy (and I know all Dolfans are) that the team is actually in the postseason. It was a great/memorable season and the arrow is pointing up with Adam Gase at the helm.
You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day's round-up below.
