"Apparently the Pop-A-Shot basketball game, former general manager Chris Grier and edge rusher Jaelan Phillips were what was ailing the Miami Dolphins this season. Granted, that's a joking explanation for the Dolphins defeating Buffalo, 30-13, on Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium, ending a seven-game losing streak to the Bills and capping one of the most tumultuous weeks of the season. But speaking with tongue planted firmly in cheek, it's the only thing that makes sense."
"The Dolphins (3-7) controlled the Bills (6-3) for the entire game, forcing turnovers, scoring in key situations and not having the mindless penalties, blown coverages and operational errors that have plagued them all season. It was a smooth game. The Dolphins' brain trust of owner Steve Ross, president and CEO Tom Garfinkel, interim general manager Champ Kelly and executive Brandon Shore, the senior vice president of football and business administration, gleefully gathered on the sideline in the final minutes to celebrate."
