Overview
- De’Von Achane led Miami with 174 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries, plus 51 receiving yards, driving a run-first plan that Buffalo failed to stop.
- Miami built a 16-0 halftime lead and finished with three takeaways and three sacks, including an end-zone interception of Josh Allen and forced fumbles on Allen and James Cook.
- Josh Allen threw for 306 yards and two touchdowns but committed an interception and a lost fumble, while Buffalo opened with five straight three-and-outs.
- Dolphins edge rusher Bradley Chubb drew a taunting flag after a late sack of Allen, and the NFL will review the play for a possible fine that is typically announced on Saturday.
- Bills coach Sean McDermott cited extensive injuries and said the team must "turn over every stone" to address recurring health issues; Buffalo is 6-3 behind the 8-2 Patriots, with Tampa Bay up next as Miami heads to Madrid to face Washington.
