The Dolphins are rebounding from a 17-point deficit to take the lead over Payments within the second half
ORCHARD PARK, NY — The Miami Dolphins entered Sunday’s wildcard matchup against the Buffalo Bills as a record 14-point underdog; maybe someone forgot to tell you.
The Dolphins had 17 unanswered points after trailing 17-0 in the first half and tied the game with a 7-yard touchdown pass from Skylar Thompson to Mike Gesicki.

The game was set up by Miami’s second interception of the game when Jevon Holland penned a deflected pass and returned it to the Bills’ 17-yard line.
Buffalo hit a field goal just before halftime to go 20-17 at the break, but the Miami fireworks continued after halftime when Dolphins safety Eric Rowe stripped Allen and defensive tackle Zach Sieler in the end zone rallied to give Miami its first lead of the game, 24-20.
