As the third quarter began the Miami Dolphins found themselves with a lead and that lead lasted almost through the third period of play. Miami posted a 16 play drive that ate up almost the entire third period driving down to the Buffalo two yard line.
Facing 4th and a half yard for a first down, Brian Flores ran a fake field goal that got Miami a first and goal. It appeared that the Dolphins would improve their 14-9 lead by another seven points. Then, Ryan Fitzpatrick became, well, Ryan Fitzpatrick.
The Dolphins quarterback commited his first turnover of the game with a pick at the three yard line and for the Dolphins, it spiraled downward from there.
