The Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins played an entertaining one in western New York on Saturday, that ended with the Dolphins winning 34-31.
Bills eliminated from playoffs for 17th straight year after Dolphins hit game-winning FG in OT
Things aren’t looking great for Rex Ryan.
The game went to overtime after a crazy finish that included Ryan trying but not really trying to call a timeout before a field goal at the end of regulation.
In overtime, Ryan opted to punt with four minutes left. A tie would eliminate the Bills from playoff contention, yet Ryan still decided to roll the dice.
Upon receiving the ball, the Dolphins got a big chunk of yardage, putting themselves into Bills territory thanks to Jay Ajayi.
As it turns out, the Bills had just 10 players on the field for that play.
After a couple more runs from Ajayi, the Dolphins took a knee in the middle of the field to set up a game-winning field goal by Andrew Franks.
Franks had tied the game from 55 yards out, and he won it with the 27-yard attempt.
The win effectively knocked the Bills out of playoff contention and put the Dolphins at 10-5. The Dolphins will clinch a playoff spot if the Broncos lose on Christmas.
