Dolphins first loss of season shows they haven’t yet surpassed the Bills in AFC East

The Miami Dolphins still have work to do if they want to be the team to beat in the AFC. Buffalo handed the Dolphins (3-1) their first loss of the season Sunday in a 48-20 defeat that kept Miami from taking the lead in the division and exposed weaknesses that either weren't there in Miami's first three games or were hidden by its offensive firepower. The Dolphins had outscored their opponents 130-71 and averaged 550 yards in the first three games of the season, but that high-powered offense was uneven Sunday both because of a tough Bills defensive front and because of self-inflicted wounds.
