Overview

  • Terrel Bernard intercepted Tua Tagovailoa at the Buffalo 21 with just over three minutes left, returning it 24 yards to set up a clinching 48-yard field goal.
  • A roughing-the-punter call on Dolphins captain Zach Sieler extended a late Bills drive that ended in Josh Allen’s 15-yard go-ahead touchdown to Khalil Shakir.
  • Josh Allen completed 22 of 28 passes for 213 yards and three touchdowns, reaching 200 career TD passes, while James Cook rushed for 108 yards and a 2-yard score.
  • Buffalo extended its dominance over Miami with a seventh straight win and 10th straight at home, as the Dolphins nevertheless went 10-for-15 on third down.
  • Debate over McDaniel’s future sharpened after the loss, though NFL reporter Ian Rapoport said Stephen Ross favors patience and that no move is imminent; Miami next hosts the Jets on Sept. 29.
