Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills won their third game of the season. The Bills defeated the Miami Dolphins 31-21, and despite a fine effort from the visitors, Sean McDermott's team was never in danger of losing the game, once again beating the Dolphins.
There was, however, one play that caught the attention of the fans. Right before the end of the first half, quarterback Josh Allen went for a kneel-down to end the half. However, it looked like he never touched his knee on the ground before throwing the ball to the referees.
This would've resulted in a live ball, and technically, a fumble. NFL fans took to Twitter to discuss the matter and had mixed reactions. Some of them saw this as an honest mistake by the referees, while others said that the referee caught the ball to undo Josh Allen's mistake:

"Ref should let it hit the ground. It definitely wasn't down", a second fan said. "Technically yes, but it’s not their fault if the refs call it dead," a third fan opinioned.Ref had a clear opportunity for 6 but chose the locker room
They calling this a fumble if it’s not Josh Allen tbh
Bills defeat Dolphins following Tua Tagovailoa's late-game mistake
Those who expected the game to be easily won by the hosts were surprised to see how the contest developed. Despite a two-possession win by the Buffalo Bills, the score was only defined in the fourth quarter, following a big mistake by Tua Tagovailoa.
The Dolphins quarterback never recognized the linebacker closing the quick pass. Tagovailoa kept his eyes solely on his wide receiver, and it was easy for the defender to intercept the throw. As such, Miami never touched the ball again and the game ended with a 31-21 score.
Despite his late-game mistake, it was Tagovailoa's best game of the season. He largely executed the game plan with simple throws, many behind the line of scrimmage. He also connected on a few good passes with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
The Dolphins now have to climb a mountain to make the playoffs. The last team to start the season 0-3 but still make the postseason was the Houston Texans in 2018.
