The Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins engaged in a rock fight for early control over the AFC East. Despite falling behind three separate times in a back-and-forth game — including headed into the fourth quarter — the Dolphins survived to improve to 3-0 while dealing the current Super Bowl favorites their first loss of the season.
But it wasn’t without drama. First came the apparent head injury that cost Tua Tagovailoa four snaps before his controversial return in the second half. Then came an uncharacteristic fourth down throw where Josh Allen bounced a pass to a wide-open Isaiah McKenzie. Then, after a safety, the Bills’ comeback efforts ground to a halt when McKenzie was tackled in bounds with eight seconds to play and Buffalo was unable to spike the ball in time to set up one final play.
