The Jets had a chance to take the lead just before halftime, but Ammendola hit the left upright on a 55-yarder. Three plays later, the Jets went for it on fourth down - and Flacco found Crowder in the end zone to tie it. Tagovailoa was picked off by Ashtyn Davis on Miami’s next possession, and Michael Carter had a 39-yard run on first down to give New York first-and-goal at the 1. The Dolphins opened the game by going 83 yards on 11 plays to take a 7-0 lead on Waddle’s 1-yard run off a handoff from Gaskin in the wildcat. On third-and-8, Flacco zipped a pass across the middle to Moore, who caught the ball ahead of a diving Byron Jones and took off for a 62-yard TD to tie it at 14 late in the third quarter. The Dolphins receiver turned upfield and raced into the end zone for a 65-yard TD to give the Dolphins a 14-7 lead with 9:06 left in the third quarter.Īmmendola was wide left on a 40-yarder, but the Jets sent the Dolphins on a three-and-out - and got some help from Miami on an interference call on the punt. Tagovailoa launched a deep pass down the left sideline to a wide-open and waiting Hollins. New York was called for delay of game and then punted. “But we made too many mistakes to win the football game.”Īmmendola lined up to attempt a 56-yarder on the Jets’ first possession after halftime, but Saleh said he changed his mind.
Moore finished with eight catches for a career-best 141 yards. New York opted to go with the 36-year-old Flacco over Mike White, saying the veteran would give them a better chance against Miami’s aggressive defense.įlacco was 24 of 39 for 291 yards and touchdowns to Elijah Moore and Jamison Crowder. Joe Flacco made his first start in place of the injured Zach Wilson, who missed his fourth straight game. And they couldn’t get much going consistently on offense.
