@MiamiDolphins

The last two years were winning seasons for the @MiamiDolphins, but neither resulted in a playoff berth. The potential was clear, though.

And in 2022 a bright new HC and a major acquisition made the difference. The Phins are in the postseason - here’s how they did it. 🧵

@cheetah

The Dolphins bolstered their offense big time last summer, making a blockbuster trade with KC for superstar WR @cheetah. The hope was that Hill and young QB @Tua would connect quickly, and Miami wasn’t disappointed with a 8-3 start to the season.

@cheetah

Hill immediately became one of Tua’s most vocal supporters, and his go-to guy. While he was already considered one of the best WRs, @cheetah broke both his career record and the Dolphins’ franchise record for receiving yards with 1,710 (2nd in NFL).

@cheetah

Oh, and just a general reminder - @cheetah literally can do it all.

@D1__JW

🐆 is not the only offensive star in the 305. @D1__JW finished with 1,356 yards, averaging 18.1 yards/rec (most in NFL), and @RMos_8Ball led the Dolphins run game with 181 carries and 891 rush yards this season.

As they face the Bills for the third time this season, the Dolphins offense will be led by rookie QB Skylar Thompson, who showed lots of promise in the preseason.

The Dolphins had some truly fun and memorable moments on their road to the postseason, from the infamous “butt punt” to McDaniel talking smack to his own players during games. 😂 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@miamidolphins

The team chemistry is strong, and the @miamidolphins have some of the best receivers in the league. Can 🐆, 🐧 and their comrades carry the team to an extended playoff run?

@dallascowboys

The @dallascowboys are back in the #NFLPlayoffs with big expectations and a lot to prove.

Their second consecutive 12-win season has them primed to make a run. Here’s how they got here. (THREAD)

@dak

In a Week 1 loss against the Bucs, @dak Prescott’s hand injury kicked off what was sure to be a rough start to a promising 2022 season.

Questions arose whether the Cowboys could stay afloat until his return.

Enter: backup QB Cooper Rush.

@seahawks

Many expected this season to be the start of a rebuild in Seattle. The @seahawks parted ways with two of the franchise’s best in the offseason.

But Pete Carroll, Geno Smith, and a list of rookies had other plans. After a remarkable year, the 12s are back in the playoffs. (🧵⬇️)

You're used to seeing Russell Wilson at Lumen Field in Week 1. But not in the visitor’s locker room.

All eyes on Russ' return in primetime, but it was Geno who stole the show with the hardest mic drop of 2022. 🎤

@GenoSmith3

The Week 1 win was no fluke. SEA was here to compete. Winners of five of six from Weeks 4-9, the Hawks were flying high.

Getting his first chance since 2014 as a full-time QB1 in the NFL, @GenoSmith3 was putting up early season MVP-type numbers. Nobody was sleeping on 7 anymore.

@buffalobills

The @buffalobills have reached the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season and finished with their third-straight season with 11 or more wins. Let’s look back at their journey to the playoffs ⬇️

@VonMiller

The Bills kicked off their season the best way possible, defeating the defending Super Bowl champs. A nice way for new Bills LB @VonMiller to kick off his first season as a Bill, proving they were the real deal on a primetime stage.

After a close loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 3, the Bills came back stronger with a four-game win streak.

@Jaguars

From worst in the league to first in their division, the @Jaguars are playoff bound once again.

With a new head coach and a star second-year QB, Jacksonville finished the regular season on a 5-game winning streak. Let’s recap a redemption season in #DUUUVAL. THREAD 🧵

@44Ytw

In the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft, the Jags selected Georgia’s standout LB, Travon Walker.

@44Ytw made an immediate impact, nabbing a crucial interception against Carson Wentz and the Commanders in his first NFL game.

From the start of the season, it was clear the Jaguars had made improvements defensively. Through the first four weeks, Trayvon Walker was second on the defense in pressures generated. LB Devin Lloyd was tied for the team lead in tackles.

@49ers

They were 3-4.

They finished 13-4.

A season once in question is now perfectly relevant behind Mr. Irrelevant and a 2-way cast of superstars.

Here’s how the @49ers did it. #FTTB [THREAD 🧵]

@CMC_22

One could say the 49ers' season turned around when they traded for @CMC_22 in Week 7.

They are 10-0 since CMC became a starter. An instant impact.

Could he have been the greatest mid-season acquisition of all time? The man even throws passes!

Now, you can't just have a good offense to make the playoffs. Defense wins championships, and boy does SF have a good one.

Ranked No. 1 in yards allowed per game and total points allowed, this unit literally flies to the football.
