Dolphins hoping recent losses help right offensive wrongs

Associated Press  

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Tua Tagovailoa believes the Miami Dolphins’ recent losses have taught them lessons their early season success didn’t. Ahead of Miami’s pivotal division matchup against Buffalo, Tagovailoa said the Dolphins are learning the importance of putting bad drives behind them and not letting incompletions or miscommunication dictate how a game progresses. Entering Miami’s matchup against San Francisco, Tagovailoa led all NFL quarterbacks in passes that traveled 10-plus yards over the middle of the field, according to Next Gen Stats. “I would say regardless of the coverages, I think we have good enough or more than good enough players to account for whatever routes they have,” Tagovailoa said, “and me being the distributor, I’ve got to give them those opportunities.” ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl and https://twitter.com/AP_NFL
