The Miami Dolphins steamrolled the Cleveland Browns 20-3 in an AFC clash at Huntington Bank Field.

Miami's Tyler Huntley started at quarterback in place of star QB Tua Tagovailoa, who is suffering from a hip injury.

Huntley went on to completed 22-of-26 passes for 225 yards and one touchdown.

He also led the team on the ground with seven carries for 52 yards and another score.

“I feel good,” Huntley said after the game. “I actually feel more comfortable with these plays. A couple weeks in the office definitely makes a difference.”

Tyreek Hill finished with nine receptions for 105 yards, his third triple-digit game of the year and second in four weeks.

With Jaylen Waddle out of action and a backup quarterback at the reins, Hill stepped up in a big way for the Dolphins offense.

Thanks to Huntley and Hill, the Dolphins kept their playoff hopes alive and improved to 8-and-8.

They visit the New York Jets in Week 18.
