Dolphins Can’t Hold Late Lead In Indy, Lose 27-24 On Last Second Field Goal

INDIANAPOLIS (CBSMiami) – The Miami Dolphins blew a double digit lead in the fourth quarter Sunday in Indianapolis, losing to the Colts 27-24.

Miami led 24-14 with 8:27 to, but three straight scoring drives led by Andrew Luck proved to be the difference.

Luck finished the game completing 30-of-37 for 343 yards and three touchdowns, good for a passer rating of 109.8.

The crowning moment of Luck’s afternoon actually ended taking 3:18 off the clock. It was a seven-play, 89-yard touchdown drive that tied the game late in the fourth quarter.

A quick and confusing Dolphins three and out later, Luck and the Colts drained the clock and Adam Vinatieri hit a 32-yard field goal as time expired.
