Lindell, Bills edge winless Dolphins
By Steven Wine, THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI - Even when the Miami Dolphins play keep-away, they lose.
Winless Miami controlled the ball for nearly 37 minutes and led most of the game, but Rian Lindell kicked a 34-yard field goal with 46 seconds left and the Buffalo Bills earned their fourth consecutive victory Sunday, 13-10.
Buffalo scored 11 points in the final 9:46 to improve to 5-4. The Bills' winning streak is their longest since 2004.
The Dolphins fell to 0-9, extending the worst start in franchise history. Five defeats have been by three points, none more wrenching than the latest.
Buffalo's only touchdown came after a long drive by the Dolphins put them ahead 10-2. The Bills capped a 66-yard march with a three-yard run by Marshawn Lynch, who then ran for the two-point conversion, spinning across the goal after he was hit to make it 10-all.
Miami's Ted Ginn Jr. returned the ensuing kickoff 86 yards for an apparent score, but the touchdown was negated by a holding penalty on Greg Camarillo. The Dolphins punted, and Roscoe Parrish returned the kick 40 yards to midfield with 4:37 left.
