ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The Miami Dolphins’ defense needed one more stop, one final big play like the ones it had made throughout the second half.
At worst, a stop on the Buffalo Bills’ final drive would have forced overtime. At best, it would have given the Dolphins a chance to take home a key road win late in the season and improve their slim chances for an AFC East title.
But as snow swirled around Highmark Stadium as the game neared its conclusion, the Dolphins couldn’t get the stop.
