Associated PressMIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Drake? When everything is said and done, no one can take that away from you.” That’s the goal for the Dolphins as they begin the second half of their season Sunday at home against the Las Vegas Raiders. What was important to me is that we take advantage of the rest, but we build upon everything that we’ve really built in these first nine games, which has been unbelievable for this team.” The Dolphins have also made significant strides on defense, which was an area of concern earlier this season. really the last couple weeks, it’s almost night and day honestly.” Phillips pointed to the Dolphins’ defensive performance against the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs in Germany as an example of their growth. “To be able to see how hard they’ve worked through training camp and whatnot, to see everything starting to come together for those guys is I think a really, really empowering thing to see for us offensively and as a whole.” NOTES: Running back De’Von Achane practiced for the second straight day as he works his way back from a knee injury.
