The Miami Dolphins must come out victorious against the Pittsburgh Steelers in week 14 of the 2013 NFL Football schedule to have a legitimate chance at the final wild card spot. They will hope Steelers coach Mike Tomlin doesn’t do anything crazy again in this game when we watch Dolphins vs Steelers online free live streaming on Fox by following the links offered below.
Miami (6-6) is tied with the Baltimore Ravens for the final wild card spot in the AFC. However, they don’t hold the tie-breaker so in order to make the postseason, they must finish one game ahead of the Ravens by the time the next four games are completed. The Ravens have a tougher schedule remaining, but the Dolphins enter today’s game knowing they have lost the last five games against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The big story in today’s game is the return of former wide receiver Mike Wallace to his old home in Pittsburgh. Wallace signed with the Dolphins in the offseason. After a slow start, Wallace has been turning it on as of late with 209 yards receiving on 12 catches including two touchdowns over his past two games. The Steelers and their fans are all too familiar with what Wallace is capable of and might have signed him if the Dolphins didn’t outbid them.
The Dolphins offense has been clicking on all cylinders and will test the Steelers defense today. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill had his best game of the season last week with 331 yards receiving with a pair of touchdowns and one interception in a win over the NY Jets. As a team the Dolphins gained 453 yards of offense with Brian Hartline chipping in 127 yards of receiving. The Dolphins will look to extend their scoring ways when we watch Steelers vs Dolphins online live streaming free on Fox today as part of NFL Sunday Football.
The Steelers (5-7) still have an outside shot at winning the same wild card spot the Dolphins are chasing. A loss today would all but eliminate Pittsburgh from the playoffs so it’s do or die for them. They will have to put aside their coach’s bizarre interference on a touchdown run last week that cost him a fine and cast a negative light on the franchise. The incident could end up having a positive effect on the team and fire them up to beat the Dolphins at home.
Le’Veon Bell, the Steelers leading rusher and holder of all five rushing touchdowns they have on the year, is back after sustaining a concussion last week and will be starting today. He was having a great day last week with a touchdown and 73 yards rushing before being knocked out of the game. If Ben Roethlisberger can continue his hot streak of eight touchdowns versus no picks over his past three games and Bell can successfully run the ball, the Steelers could run away with this game.
