Dolphins top Patriots 33-24 in regular-season finale

Associated Press  

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — They came running off the sideline after the last play, one final sprint of the season, one final moment of joy. Jaylen Waddle had a touchdown grab and set the NFL record for receptions in a rookie year, Tua Tagovailoa used his legs — not his arm — to get a critical first down in the final moments and the Dolphins finished their season by defeating the playoff-bound New England Patriots 33-24 on Sunday. And hours later, when Las Vegas beat the Los Angeles Chargers 35-32 in overtime, the Patriots’ opponent was set — they’re going to Buffalo for a wild-card game on Saturday night. We wanted to end this season with a bang and that’s what we went out there and did.” Jones completed 20 of 30 passes for 261 yards for New England. Waddle entered Sunday three catches from breaking Anquan Boldin’s NFL rookie record of 101 grabs set in 2003 — and the Dolphins got him that in their first four plays.
