The Miami Dolphins lost their Saturday night matchup to the Las Vegas Raiders 15-13 at Hard Rock Stadium.
Mike McDaniel’s team, with a majority of their starters for a couple of possessions, couldn’t get a whole lot to go right, as the offense stalled and the defense was gashed early.
The defense shored up after the first drive, allowing just six points for the remainder of the game, and the offense had some flashes when Skylar Thompson entered the game.
However, a missed field goal from Jason Sanders with less than two minutes on the clock sealed the Dolphins’ fate.
Here’s how the fans reacted throughout the second game of the McDaniel era in South Florida.
ZACH SIELER IS HIMMMM

Hopefully Nik Needham doesn’t have the same finger injury that Will Fuller did last year

Tua having time and going through all his reads. When was the last time we saw this in Miami?

Larnel Coleman and Noah Igbinoghene must be roommates.
Staying up late all night, having pillow fights and comparing stories to prove whose worse at football. #finsup

Porter Gustin making a real strong case to be a reserve DE on this team

Put that safety on Teddy Bridgewater for not getting rid of the ball sooner, but it should be noted that the initial pressure came from the defender being blocked (or tried) by Mike Gesicki.

Wow between Gesicki and Carter I have to say I am not thrilled with our TEs

Erik Ezukanma is a stud — adjustment on an under-thrown ball makes the catch in traffic, and stays on his feet after the contact. If not for the safety coming over he has THE highlight play of the preseason
