Dolphins Give Jets Free Points on Moronic Ryan Fitzpatrick Play for a Safety
By Michael Luciano
Even if the Miami Dolphins aren't tanking, they aren't doing a good job of making it look like they aren't tanking. After picking off Sam Darnold on one of the worst throws in NFL history, Ryan Fitzpatrick just couldn't allow the momentum to stay on their side. Fitzpatrick's botched QB sneak cut the lead to 21-9 with under a minute left.
The Dolphins seemingly intended to run the clock out to end the first half.

Darnold proceeded to get the Jets in field goal range, where Sam Ficken drilled a 52-yard kick. The Dolphins have a 21-12 lead at halftime, but this could have been much worse for the Jets.
