Postgame Presser


Dolphins 21, Bills 14

Q. Last drive, last interception, what did you see?

TUA TAGOVAILOA: They played two man. Tried to anticipate the throw and throw and that was the result.

Q. (Indiscernible.)

TUA TAGOVAILOA: Well, we're going to have to come in tomorrow, of course going to have to watch the film, see things we can get corrected and then move on. It's a short week. We know that.

Q. (Indiscernible.)

TUA TAGOVAILOA: I think when you say opportunities that we didn't have, I think we did have opportunities. We just didn't make the best out of them when we had them.

Missed throw, miscommunication on some plays. You just can't do that. Yeah, you can't do that.

Q. How did the run game in the second half maybe throw you guys off in the second half? First half ran for over 100 yards.

TUA TAGOVAILOA: Yeah, I mean, it's just the flow of the game. Sometimes that happens. We got to adjust and find a way.

Q. I know the mandate is always next-man-up when somebody gets hurt. How much more can this team take?

TUA TAGOVAILOA: I think it takes a toll on the guys that had gotten reps in practice. It's tough for a certain position to have a couple guys go down and then you got to find spot guys to come in and try to play that position the way that a couple of our guys have.

So it's tough, but no one is going to feel sorry for us. There are a lot of other teams that have injuries that are going through some tough deals, so we're not making any excuses. No one is going to make any excuses for us.

Just got to come back next week and be ready.

Q. At one point you had a healthy lead in the division race and now you see Buffalo come in here and win the division. How would you describe the collective mindset in the locker room right now?

TUA TAGOVAILOA: Any time we lose it's never a good feeling. The stakes are high every time we play, so we understand what was at stake tonight and didn't come through. It started with me.
