MIAMI (AP) -- Rookie Lee Evans made the biggest catch for the Buffalo Bills, and defensive tackle Pat Williams came up with a nice grab, too.
Evans' 69-yard touchdown reception capped a comeback Sunday by the Bills, who forced seven turnovers, including Williams' lumbering interception return for a touchdown to clinch a 42-32 win over the Miami Dolphins.| Allen's Analysis |

Bills at Dolphins: Is the Bills' recent success a sign that Mike Mularkey's offense is finally working?Mularkey has an offensive philosophy that he wants to get out there, but like all coaches he needs the right players to institute that philosophy. He's only recently gotten a solid running game, which was lacking in the beginning of the season. That running game has enabled the rest of his offense to start to play well as the Bills have been able to do a much better job with play action against defenses focused on stopping the run. Also he's getting solid play from WRs Lee Evans and Eric Moulds, while QB Drew Bledsoe has stopped making as many mistakes and has shown more mobility. Those are the reasons why Mularkey's offense is now starting to click.Eric Allen played cornerback for 14 NFL seasons with the Eagles, Saints and Raiders. He's a regular contributor to Insider. |
Game notes
Bills tight end Mark Campbell hurt his knee in the first quarter and missed the rest of the game. ... The Dolphins' season-long ineptitude spread to the national anthem. It was marred by a faulty sound system and a profanity picked up on the public address system when uttered by a stadium worker. ... Mike Mularkey became the first first-year Bills coach to sweep the Dolphins since Joe Collier in 1966. ... The game was announced as a sellout, but Pro Player Stadium was at least half empty, as it has been since Miami started 0-6.
