Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Jets’ 32-26 overtime loss to the Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday:
Hero
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa threw for 331 yards and orchestrated two game-tying touchdowns in the fourth quarter and the game-winning drive in overtime, throwing a 10-yard pass to Jonnu Smith to end the game.
Zero
Jets kicker Anders Carlson made four field goals, but his kickoff with 56 seconds left in the fourth quarter needed to go into the end zone. Instead, he kicked it to the 1, and Malik Washington returned it 45 yards to the Miami 46, giving the Dolphins a chance to get in position to kick the game-tying field goal.
Unsung Hero
Dolphins TE Jonnu Smith did not have a catch until overtime but then he made three huge catches on the game-winning drive, including a 10-yard touchdown to end it.
Key Stat
0: Quarterback hits by the Jets defense in the game despite Tagovailoa throwing 47 times.
Quote of the Day
“When you’re up in the fourth quarter, all of a sudden it starts to feel like you have a losing problem. It’s like you have a gene or some [expletive].”
— Jets WR Garrett Wilson on the team losing five games this season after they had a fourth-quarter lead
