Dolphins rout Broncos 70-20, scoring the most points by an NFL team in a game since 1966
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- - De’Von Achane could hear the crowd at Hard Rock Stadium chanting “Three more points!” on Miami’s final drive. The Dolphins had the ball inside the Denver Broncos’ 30 with less than a minute left, and they were three points shy of breaking the NFL’s single-game scoring record.
Instead of sending out his kicker for a potential record-setting field goal, Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel elected to take a knee and run out the clock.
“It felt like chasing points and chasing a record - that’s not what we came to the game to do," McDaniel said.
