Las Vegas was able to capitalize on a failed pass attempt inside the Dolphins’ end zone, resulting in a safety.

The Dolphins could have extended the halftime lead to five points; however, the 48-yard field goal attempt hit the post, keeping the Raiders within two points at the break.

A touchdown to Hunter Renfrow in the third quarter gave Las Vegas the lead.

The last quarter looked to be going all the Raiders’ way, but a missed extra point attempt opened the door for Miami.

A field goal left the Dolphins trailing Las Vegas by eight points, and there was a chance to level the game with a touchdown and two-point conversion.

After a 61-yard drive and eight seconds left on the clock, Miami quarterback Jacoby Brissett stepped up and ran it himself for the touchdown.
