The Dolphins battled the Bills on Thursday Night Football, but in the end, Miami couldn’t overcome its own mistakes—or Buffalo’s superior roster. We break down another frustrating primetime performance from Tua Tagovailoa, whose late interception sealed the loss despite a solid gameplan from Mike McDaniel. Zach Sieler’s roughing-the-punter penalty proved costly, but the Dolphins still had a shot to tie the game late. We dive into how this game exposed the gap in talent between Miami and true AFC contenders like the Bills, and whether the Dolphins can make that leap — or if they’re stuck in the middle of the pack.

Tua's late interception costs Dolphins in TNF loss to the Bills. McDaniel schemed a good gameplan despite Tua's limitations. Zach Sieler's crucial penalty adds to Dolphins woes, but Fins still had a chance to tie the game late.

Joe gets a speeding ticket but takes the high-road and doesn't use the "Do you know who I am?" card, unlike Drake at the Miami Heat championship celebration. Larry Blustein joins and breaks down a loaded weekend of high school football in south Florida. Joe's leans favorite-heavy in his week 3 NFL picks, Joe is 15-13 ATS this season.

Omar Kelly joins and defends Tua after he threw a crucial interception late in the loss to the Bills. Dolphins hang in there, but at the end of the day Buffalo just has more talent than Miami. Don Bailey Jr. joins ahead of the big Canes/Gators showdown Saturday night.

Joe doesn't understand how the media/fans continue to defend Tua Tagovailoa. Mike Florio joins and breaks down all things NFL.

Omar Kelly joins after the Dolphins TNF loss to the Bills. Although Tua didn’t have his best game, Omar ranks Tua as the Dolphins 8th biggest problem right now. Omar and Joe disagree about Tyreek Hill’s performance.

Mike Florio says Xavien Howard was right when he said Tua tends to go into "panic mode". Florio doesn't see a problem with the tush push, says it's a glorified QB sneak. Tom Brady being both a broadcaster and part owner of the Las Vegas Raiders is a mess.
