Josh Jacobs, the running back for the Green Bay Packers, had a hilarious reaction to the Miami Dolphins’ performance in their Thanksgiving finale. Jacobs quipped, “Them boys looked cold out there” ¹. And it’s hard to blame him, given the Dolphins’ lackluster performance in the freezing Wisconsin weather.
The Dolphins struggled to get their offense going, and their defense couldn’t contain the Packers’ attack. Jacobs himself had a solid game, helping the Packers secure a 30-17 win ¹.
It’s worth noting that the Dolphins have historically struggled in cold weather. According to reports, they’ve lost their last 12 games in temperatures below 40 degrees ¹.
While Jacobs’ comment was likely made in jest, it highlights the challenges that teams from warmer climates face when playing in cold weather. The Dolphins will likely look to regroup and rebound from this loss as they head into the final stretch of the season.
In other news, the Packers’ win marks their first home victory of the season, and they’ll look to build on this momentum as they head into the playoffs ¹.
