The Miami Dolphins commenced their clash against the formidable Baltimore Ravens with a promising start, but ultimately faced a tough road loss at M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Initially showcasing prowess on offense and a 10-7 lead through the first quarter, Miami (11-5) maintained a competitive edge until late in the first half, trailing narrowly at 14-13 after a field goal by Jason Sanders.

However, the game took a turn as the Dolphins struggled to maintain momentum. Baltimore swiftly capitalized, scoring 21 consecutive points in under 4:30 of game time, building a commanding 35-13 advantage.

Though Miami rallied early in the fourth quarter, closing the gap to two possessions on a touchdown pass from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to running back De’Von Achane, their efforts fell short. The Ravens surged ahead, claiming a convincing 56-19 victory.

Tagovailoa showcased resilience with 237 passing yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions, while Achane’s standout performance included 107 rushing yards and a crucial touchdown reception, marking his 10th score of the season.

Despite the team’s commendable start highlighted by a quick offensive rhythm, Baltimore’s determined response, led by quarterback Lamar Jackson‘s five touchdown passes, sealed the game in their favor.

The Dolphins, now focused on their regular-season finale against the Buffalo Bills (10-6), aim to rebound and secure the AFC East title with a win at Hard Rock Stadium, aiming for a significant achievement in their 2023 campaign.
