The Miami Dolphins expected a tough game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night but probably didn't expect their starting quarterback to spend the second half in the hospital. Tua Tagovailoa was carted off late in the second quarter after being thrown down and sacked by Josh Tupou. Teddy Bridgewater replaced Tua and led the Fish to a TD to cut the Bengal lead to 14-12 at the half. In the third quarter, the Dolphins took the lead 15-12 on one of Jason Sanders' 3 FGs, but in the fourth, a costly Bridgewater INT inside the Bengal ten led to a Joe Burrow's TD pass to Hayden Hurst and the 27-15 final--one TD shy of the O/U 48.
