But the Dolphins had other things on their minds at home Sunday; They kept Josh Allen and the Bills from scoring until the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, players like De’Von Achane went to work the moment Miami had the ball.
Achane was a key factor in the Dolphins’ victory; He rushed for 174 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries; Both came in the fourth quarter to kill any hope of a Bills comeback.

The first was a 59-yard run with 6:31 left in the fourth quarter, which came after Allen fumbled a 15-yard run that extended Buffalo’s drive in a 16-6 game. However, Achane’s goal broke the game completely.
Allen finally found the end zone when Keon Coleman made a contested catch for a 35-yard touchdown. Jackson Hawes then caught a 26-yard touchdown pass to make it a 10-point game, 23-13.

But on the next drive, after a failed onside kick by Buffalo, Achane found an opening and went 35 yards for a touchdown, securing a 30-13 lead with 3:15 left in the game.
It was a turnover-filled game for the Bills, and Allen threw an interception in the end zone and fumbled once. Star running back James Cook, who rushed for just 53 yards after a great week in Buffalo against the Chiefs, also fumbled on a big run.
Tua Tagovailoa, who also had an up-and-down season with the Dolphins, was confident in his throws despite two interceptions. He threw for two touchdowns, including a 38-yard strike to Jaylen Waddle, the team’s leading receiver with 84 yards. He also found Malik Washington on a 9-yard touchdown pass early in the game.

It also didn’t help the Bills when Darton Kincaid left the game in the second half due to injury. Kincaid has been one of Allen’s favorite targets this season.
Looking further at the box score, Achane also had six catches for 51 yards for the Dolphins in an incredible individual performance. Tagovailoa was 15-for-21 for 173 yards, while Allen was 28-for-40 for 306 yards and also rushed for 31 yards.
