Fins get nothing out of the fumble - Bills go up 14-7

2nd and 3 3rd and 3 and Fitzpatrick reverts to his old self and tries to do too much on both plays and comes up empty.

Fins cut the deficit to 7 at the half. Get ball first in the second half.

Rather than take the points at the goal line - the Dolphins go for it on 4th down and fail. The deficit is 4. Not a good decision but the one I expected with Fitzpatrick at QB -- aggressive rather than smart.

Van Noy almost gets a potential pick-6. Thankfully, no damage is done to the Dolphins failing to execute at the goal line.

Jordan Howard gives the Dolphins a 3-point lead. A smarter approach from Fitzpatrick on this drive.

Bills back up by 4 -- crucial, game-deciding drive coming for the Fins

Fitzpatrick gets sacked at a horrible time while trying to go for an unnecessary big play.

Nothing on that drive for the Dolphins - now a TD could seal their fate.

This will end up being another worthless challenge for the Dolphins

And there is the dagger the Dolphins secondary was looking to give a while ago

The dolphins made it closer than it really was at the end but still not good enough. Poor coaching decisions on the offensive side of the ball and poor executions causes them to fall short. On to a short week vs the Jaguars

20 - the number of carries total for Dolphins RBs/FBs today -- still not good enough. As I said in week 1, I am all for the RB-by-committee approach but you must give those guys the ball more to help the offense.

Can’t disagree. They also stuck to man playing Noah on their best wr with no help. Rarely played zone but when they did Allen struggled. Poor coaching in my opinion.
Meanwhile Fitz wasn’t horrible but he’s simply not good enough to win when you need him. I’m watching Herbert look pretty good against the champs and Tanny threw 4 TDs today. Can’t wait to see fitztragic against the jags I’m expecting another loss but he’s somehow better than those two and Tua….I guess better to lose for one more year with all of those picks. Texans 0-2 as well.

Nice coaching adjustment. Your starter goes down so you simply expect a rookie to seamlessly take over with no help. Sure try it in the first quarter but after getting torched do you think that it would be wise to make an adjustment? How about at halftime… uh nothing. Any idiot could see this but our coaches. I’ve seen this questioned by various reporters…F me.

Cameron Wolfe ESPN Staff Writer
Xavien Howard said it was the game plan that had Noah Igbinoghene covering Stefon Diggs. He was Byron Jones’ guy coming in and Igbinoghene had him after the injury. It didn’t work. Diggs had 5 catches for 123 yards and a TD on nine targets with Igbinoghene as nearest defender.
