Tua, Dolphins survive scoreless 2nd half to beat Steelers

Associated Press  

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel wanted his team to generate more turnovers. However, despite a scoreless second half, Miami held on to defeat the Steelers 16-10 Sunday night thanks to two interceptions of rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett in the game’s closing minutes. “It’s not an easy thing to do,” Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said. “They made the necessary plays to secure victory, man, and really, we didn’t,” said Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, “and oftentimes, particularly when’s it’s a defensive battle the way the game developed into, it’s about who catches the interception opportunities and who doesn’t.” Tagovailoa finished 21 of 35 for 261 yards and an 8-yard touchdown pass to Raheem Mostert on the Dolphins’ opening drive. But we’ll take the win.” Pittsburgh got within 13-10 in the second quarter when Pickett hit rookie receiver George Pickens for a 7-yard touchdown to conclude a 13-play, 86-yard drive.
