Defensive struggle

Bills down Dolphins to reignite slim playoff hopes

Defence came out on top in the battle for second spot in the AFC East.

WEEK 11 OF the NFL kicked off Thursday night with the Buffalo Bills defeating the Miami Dolphins to move into second place in the AFC East.

The Bills snapped a three-game losing streak thanks in large part to the foot of Rian Lindell who kicked four field goals in the 19-14 win.

Leodis McKelvin’s 79-yard punt return was the highlight of a game that saw CJ Spiller rush for just 91 yards on 22 attempts and QB Ryan Fitzpatrick finish with only 168 yards from 27 passes.

The Miami offense was even more insipid with both Daniel Thomas and Reggie Bush combining for just 53 yards from 22 attempts while Ryan Tannehill threw two interceptions in the final two minutes of the game to seal the ‘Fins third consecutive loss.
