MIAMI GARDENS — Next.
That’s Sunday’s prime takeaway.
Next game, next Sunday, next tomato can on the schedule.
The Miami Dolphins (4-6) move on after beating their latest patsy on Sunday, the 2-8 Las Vegas Raiders, a team so lost they promoted former Dolphins coach Joe Philbin leading into this game.
Next chance, next moment, next scheduled breath of hope for this Dolphins season.
It’s the New England Patriots (3-8) coming Hard Rock Stadium next Sunday, a point veteran Calais Campbell already knew in the moments after the Dolphins’ 34-19 win over the Raiders.
“That one will be a big one,” he said.

MIAMI GARDENS — This should have been “guaranteed victory day” for the Miami Dolphins.
The lowly Las Vegas Raiders came to Hard Rock Stadium riding a five-game losing streak and major replacements on their offensive staff.
The Dolphins (4-6) took advantage of the situation with a 34-19 victory.
Give the Dolphins credit for getting the victory they should have gotten, and doing it without a lot of drama.
Yes, there was some fourth quarter drama, but not a lot.
Plus, the Dolphins had their highest-scoring game of the season.
Here are some more takeaways from the win:
Dolphins win back-to-back games
The Dolphins won back-to-back games for the first time this season with Sunday’s victory.
Yes, that sounds strange considering the Dolphins started 8-3 in 2022 and 9-3 last season.
But that’s the way this season has gone.
MIAMI GARDENS — They got the plays they needed, the moments they needed and the win they needed.
The Miami Dolphins’ 34-19 win against the Las Vegas Raiders wasn’t perfect. But it was good enough for them to go 4-6 and keep their playoff hopes going.
Here are 10 thoughts on the win:
1.
MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins have been doubted for their ability to keep lengthy drives going without hitting the big play over the past two seasons.
On Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, it was exactly how they did most of their damage.
The Dolphins sustained three drives of around eight minutes before then making the big play late and won at Hard Rock Stadium for the first time in more than two months, 34-19, Sunday afternoon.
Miami (4-6) wins a second consecutive game after last Monday night’s victory against the Los Angeles Rams on the Pacific coast.
