The Miami Dolphins ended a three-game losing streak and kept their slim playoff hopes alive with a 23-15 victory over the Los Angeles Rams.

Tua Tagovailoa passed for 207 yards and completed 20 of 28 passes, helping the Dolphins improve to three wins and six losses this season.

Tyreek Hill and Malik Washington scored touchdowns and Jason Sanders kicked three field goals, including two from 50 yards, to seal the win at SoFi Stadium in California.

Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 32 of 46 passes for 293 yards but did not throw a touchdown pass as their three-game winning streak came to an end.

The Dolphins remain second in the AFC East behind the top-ranked Buffalo Bills, but still harbor hopes of clinching the final wild-card spot with seven games to go.

“If we play our best ball, we can still beat anyone,” Dolphins defensive tackle Calais Campbell said.

“We just have to keep believing and keep fighting. The error rate is zero. So it’s a game, but we have to move on.

“In order for us to get where we want to go, we have to keep fighting and believing.”
