CLEVELAND — The Miami Dolphins entered Sunday’s game at Cleveland needing to win both of their remaining games and needing Denver to lose next week at Kansas City. They took care of one part of that equation by defeating the Browns, 20-3, on Sunday. Now, the Dolphins (8-8) could have chance to earn their third consecutive playoff berth next week at the New York Jets (4-12). Quarterback Tyler “Snoop” Huntley, the Hallandale High School alum, led the way Sunday at Cleveland with a passing and rushing touchdown and rookie left tackle Patrick Paul played the second half, much of it against Cleveland defensive end Myles Garrett, the youngest in NFL history to record 100 sacks. The Dolphins also reached .500 for the first time since falling to 1-1 earlier this season. Here are some more takeaways from Sunday: Dolphins get impressive win Sunday’s win at Cleveland, a game the Dolphins needed to win to keep their playoff hopes alive, was one of the most impressive victories of the coach Mike McDaniel era considering quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (hip) missed the entire game and left tackle Terron Armstead (knee) missed the second half. The Dolphins, who have always had a string fighting spirit, showed a lot of grit. No, it wasn’t pretty — Miami lost two challenges in three plays in the third quarter — but the Dolphins gutted out the victory behind Huntley and Paul. The Dolphins also put themselves in position to have their fifth consecutive winning season and third consecutive playoff berth.
