The Miami Dolphins didn't have much going for them entering Week 10. Still, they managed to take down one of the AFC's best squads.
Sunday's 30-13 victory over the Buffalo Bills improved the Dolphins to 3-7 in 2025, a surprising result given each AFC East team's trajectory thus far. While Tua Tagovailoa did toss two touchdown passes in the win, it was Miami's ground game that paved the way.
Specifically, De'Von Achane posted some huge numbers for the Dolphins, topping 200 scrimmage yards to put the Miami offense on his back.
Here's how Achane led the Dolphins' upset win over the Bills in Week 10.

Achane was everywhere for the Dolphins, posting the second-highest rushing total in a game in his young career. While he couldn't quite break the 200-yard plateau he did in September 2023, Achane's legs were all Miami needed to coast to a win.
His two touchdown runs weren't just from long range, but they each helped put the Bills' comeback hopes to rest. Around halfway through the fourth quarter, Achane went for a 59-yard touchdown, using his speed to beat the last few Buffalo defenders.
