Ranking 10 teams with the best chance to win Super Bowl LIX

10. Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins have won one playoff game since the Dan Marino era and that came in 2000, the year after he retired. Miami has four consecutive winning seasons and has built a new culture under Mike McDaniel, but playoff success has yet to follow. Part of that can be attributed to injuries as the Dolphins played without Tua Tagovailoa in the wild-card round in 2022 and had multiple injuries on both sides of the ball entering the playoffs this past season. 

When healthy, Miami features one of the most explosive offenses in the game with speed guys like Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Raheem Mostert and De’Von Achane. The big key for 2024 will be bringing back some players to what had been an emerging defense while healthy. If new defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver can improve the unit, Miami, who looked like the AFC’s top team through the first half of the 2023 season, could be capable of a Super Bowl run.
