Live updates: Dolphins trying to salvage their season vs. Rams

By / / Sports / 5 minutes of reading


The Los Angeles Rams decided not to make any blockbuster moves at the trade deadline, despite some chatter around possibly moving Matthew Stafford and reportedly shopping Cooper Kupp. The 4-4 Rams entered Week 10 second in the NFC West and are looking to stay connected to the Arizona Cardinals with the Miami Dolphins in town. Kyren Williams has been a red-zone focal point for the Rams this season, ranking third in the NFL with eight rushing touchdowns despite Los Angeles ranking 26th in rushing yards per game.

The 2-6 Dolphins, who got Tua Tagovailoa back two weeks ago, have looked significantly better on offense since his return but have yet to find a win after close losses to Buffalo and Arizona. Tagovailoa was very sharp against the Bills, going 25-of-28 for 231 yards and two touchdowns as he works his way back from a concussion he suffered in Week 2.

    Rams give the ball right back

    After the interception, the Rams gave the ball back to the Dolphins on the first play of their drive. Kyren Williams fumbled on a run up the middle, and the Dolphins recovered. The Rams can’t get anything right so far.

    Tua throws pick, leans head first for tackle on return

    Tua Tagovailoa just threw an interception to Rams linebacker Christian Rozeboom on an ill-advised pass over the middle. Nearly making matters worse, he leaned head first in an attempt to make a tackle on the return.

    He’s looks OK, but another dangerous play given his concussion history. Just let him go.

    Another Rams punt

    Another Rams possession, another punt. Calais Campbell sacks Matthew Stafford on third down, and the Rams punt after a 10-yard drive. Miami leads, 10-0 early on the second quarter.

    Dolphins extend lead to 10-0

    Miami picks up 22 yards after the interception of Matthew Stafford and settles for a Jason Sanders field goal. Sanders is good from 50 to extend the Dolphins lead to 10-0. Jaylen Waddle dropped a third-down pass that would have extended the drive.

    Anthony Walker picks off Matthew Stafford

    Defenses dominating after early Dolphins TD

    Now it’s the Rams’ turn for a stop. They force a punt after a 16-yard Dolphins drive to get the ball back. Both defenses have been smothering since Miami’s quick-strike opening-drive touchdown. Can the Rams get something going on offense? Miami leads, 7-0.

    Another three-and-out for the Rams offense. Dolphins defenders swarm Matthew Stafford on third down, and Chop Robinson comes up with a drive-ending sack. Rams can’t capitalize after starting their drive near midfield.

    The Rams defense responds with a three-and-out of its own. The Dolphins punt, and the Rams have the ball back in good field position.

    Dolphins strike first for 7-0 lead

    One play after Waddle’s 36-yard catch, rookie receiver Malik Washington carried the ball 18 yards on an end-around for a quick-strike Dolphins touchdown. Miami leads, 7-0.

    Tua Tagovailoa just kept Miami’s opening drive alive. Bought some time with his feet on third-and-13 and found a wide open Jaylen Waddle for a 36-yard gain.

    Late injury note for the Rams. Backup cornerback Charles Woods may not be available after injuring his ankle in warmups.

    We’re moments from kickoff. Two teams whose seasons were derailed early by injury are almost ready to take the field.

    The 4-4 Rams have bounced back and are relatively healthy with a shot at the postseason. Is it too late for the 2-6 Dolphins in an AFC where the last playoff spot could end up being claimed by a team with a losing record?
