It takes a focused mind to keep playing hard the way the Miami Dolphins did even though it had to be infuriating to be a part of.

It was majorly frustrating for us fans watching this game. We hardly got to see our really cool awesome offense on the field. The Bills played small ball and kept it away from the Dolphins, which if you think about it is a major compliment and a bit revealing on their part. Seems like they were afraid of our offense? When has that ever happened in the last 20 years?

Every single Buffalo drive eventually had multiple 3rd downs and every time we all just figured we’d get off the field and then get the offense back out there and let them do their thing. Nope. Not yesterday.

With the Bills seemingly having infinite success on 3rd down thus leading to being on defense for about 2/3rds of the game, which had to make the offense antsy as they sat on the sideline, it showed tremendous poise for everyone on the team continuing to stay sharp, except the punt off Scherfield for the safety.

Miami played a game last week against the Ravens where they showed they could win when the odds were massively against them in terms of being down 21 in the 4th quarter. This week they won a game when the never could get on offense while also their defense did everything they could to keep Buffalo out of the endzone.

This team is showing character by the truckload every week. It will be difficult to keep this pace up of always having to dig deep. It be nice to have win a game early and just lean on a team for a chance. I hope that happens this week.
