In a commanding performance, the Miami Dolphins topped the Chicago Bears 40-21 in Week 14 of the 2026 season. With playoff implications on the line, the Dolphins showcased their offensive prowess, solidifying their position in the postseason race.
Leading the charge for Miami was quarterback Malik Willis, who threw for an impressive 538 yards and four touchdowns, consistently finding his rhythm against the Bears' defense. Wide receiver Jeff Caldwell also shined, racking up 183 receiving yards and contributing significantly to Miami's offensive explosion. On the other side, D'Andre Swift led the Bears' ground attack with 79 rushing yards, but it wasn't enough to keep pace with the Dolphins' high-octane offense.
Defensively, Miami made crucial stops at key moments, with Chris Johnson leading the way with eight total tackles. The Dolphins' defensive line, spearheaded by Chop Robinson's 1.5 sacks, pressured the Bears' offense consistently, forcing them into uncomfortable situations. The game's turning point came in the second quarter when a critical interception by Dillon Thieneman sparked a scoring drive that widened Miami's lead and shifted the momentum firmly in their favor.
