The Miami Dolphins have officially been eliminated from the NFL postseason after losing 34-31 to the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium on Sunday.
Miami’s offense, led by rookie Skylar Thompson, just wasn’t consistent enough to walk away with a win despite the defense and special teams giving them the ball twice, some solid field position and a score of their own.
Before we move on to the offseason, let’s take a quick look to see how the fan base reacted on social media throughout their first playoff appearance in six seasons:
Waddle had a chance to change the narrative he failed. Up 7 , Watch Buffalo go after Skylar like there no tomorrow.

Josh Allen has ran it in 3rd down at least 3 or 4 times each time he’s played against the dolphins , why is there no QB soy in these 3rd downs smh he walking into these first downs smh

Wilkins and Phillips are the only guys on this defense that deserve to be paid.

3rd & 19 ✔️
Phenomenal play by Skylar waiting it out to hit Tyreek when he's open. Keeps the drive alive.

Salvon runnin his ass off today — converts on a 2nd and 18 slipping tackles left and right with the line out in front with an escort.

JEFF WILSON FOR 6!! #FinsUp

I cannot see what the future awaits for chirstian Wilkins, Zach sieler, and Jalen Phillips. This D line will be top 3 in a couple years

The Thompson-Waddle connection has been nonexistent this season, today included

#Dolphins Bradley Chubb making a big play for us. #FinsUp
— Dolphins Talk (@clarkkentsports) January 15, 2023
that's a great freaking throw from Skylar Thompson
— Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) January 15, 2023
Well done all Dolphins, feel pride in defeat. Not taking anything away from Skylar but if we had Tua we win today! #finsup
— Will Gardner (@WilliemGardner) January 15, 2023
This season makes you think, What if Tua didn't get 3 concussion in 3 months? What if Tua was never cleared for the Cincinnati? This is a completely different offense when he's health, as seen earlier this season, and I hope he's able to comeback health next season. #FinsUp

Nothing to be ashamed of. We'll be back #MIAvsBUF #FinsUp

If the @dolphins can fix this offense bruh they are going to win the Super Bowl next year. The defense is there. #FinsUp
— nomad_ (@_nomad_lifestyl) January 15, 2023
Mike McDaniels looked every bit of a rookie coach today costing the Dolphins any chance to win this game, still a great effort by the team…#FinsUp
