4 takeaways from Dolphins’ disheartening loss to the Bills

What we learned from Miami’s first loss of the season.

The Miami Dolphins find themselves in second place in the AFC East for the first time in 2023, as the Buffalo Bills defeated Miami by a score of 48-20 Sunday afternoon in what was an all-around beatdown.

The game looked like it was going to be a shootout when the first four drives resulted in both teams trading touchdowns, making it a 14-14 tie early in the second quarter. However, it was all Bills the rest of the way. This game shows the Dolphins still have much to learn about themselves and how they’re going to compete with the top teams in the AFC moving forward.

Here are four things we learned from the Dolphins’ first loss of the season:

WATCH: Mike McDaniel, Chris Grier tell RB Devon Achane he’s being drafted by Dolphins

“Hey, you’re still fast, right?”

With their final selection on Day 2 of the 2023 NFL draft, the Miami Dolphins attacked offense, as they selected Texas A&M running back Devon Achane with pick No. 84 overall.

During their post-draft media availability general manager Chris Grier made it clear that head coach Mike McDaniel was enamored with the running back’s athleticism and wanted him to be a part of the offense.

The Dolphins social team shared the moment that Grier and McDaniel let Achane know that he’d be wearing aqua and orange for the foreseeable future.
