Mike McDaniel returned to his roots on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. His Miami Dolphins team showed up in a big way — ready to play and fight back against some of the narratives that this team was aimlessly drifting about.

Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa threw 2 touchdown passes while De'Von Achane rushed for 174 yards and 2 touchdowns in a complete team performance.

The Buffalo Bills will wrap up their season series with the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, looking to sweep it for the third straight year.

The Dolphins defense had been a problem spot this season, but it had three takeaways, three sacks, held Buffalo to 5 of 15 on third downs and shut out the Bills in the first half.

At first glance, Josh Allen's 306 total passing yards wouldn't make you think the Buffalo Bills' passing game was in disarray on Sunday in Miami, but the stats don't tell the full story.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott did not take the easy answer after Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. Does it mean more January doom in Buffalo?
