FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The long way back, if this somehow becomes that, started with a 21-yard pass to Tyreek Hill. “I saw him break open, and I went to him,” Miami Dolphins quarterback Tyler Huntley said after a 15-10 win over the New England Patriots. The long way back, if this final drive was proof of a better team and not perfume covering obvious problems, ended with fullback Alec Ingold scoring their lone touchdown on a simple handoff from the 3-yard line. “That play might be the Day One install for every offense in America,” Ingold said. It was such a long day’s journey continuing this season’s chronic weirdness and whack-a-mole problems that when the Dolphins turned into a football team for one drive — one game-winning, season-saving, 15-play, 80-yard touchdown drive — the actual question wasn’t so much where this win takes them. It’s what it blocked for now: A fourth-consecutive loss for a team whose season would have effectively ended. “It’s been 24 days since the Buffalo game,” Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said of that first loss.
