The Miami Dolphins were welcomed into a frigid Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday night, and they were beaten down by the Kansas City Chiefs 26-7.
Mike McDaniel’s team had just one positive offensive drive that Tua Tagovailoa hit Tyreek Hill for a 53-yard touchdown on, but beyond that, their performance was brutal. And, on the other side, the defense allowed the Chiefs to move up and down the field and put them in position to score points on six of their 10 possessions.
Throughout the contest, Dolphins fans on social media were not happy with their team’s performance. Here’s what they had to say:
Another blown coverage by Apple.

Please leave Jake Bailey in KC, and leave him out in the cold

Tyreek Hill the best YAC guy in history

Fangio was a defensive mastermind when teams were tryna find the next Peyton Manning

McDaniel cannot call a game, run the damn ball

Dolphins get away with another one. Getting lucky with the refs and mistakes by the chiefs. Take advantage Miami

I give up.

Dolphins defense has been getting the stops. Offense just can’t get anything going. #NFL #NFLPlayoffs

The absolute implosion of this offense from the beginning of the season till now is wild.
From the greatest show on Surf to can't get to 20 points anymore.

Duke Riley has had 2 chances to behead Mahomes and just refuses

Y’all say run run run, run isn’t working and neither is the o line… whole
Offense not good tonight— Milex (@pink1320) January 14, 2024
Christian Wilkins gotta be the dumbest..
— Chris (@DaRuffWay_) January 14, 2024
Jaylen Waddle alligatored that one, and the Dolphins' effort left a lot to be desired tonight in general.

As a dolphins fan, I’m not mad at them for losing this game. I’m not mad at Tua for losing this game.
I’m mad at them for not winning the division. Because had they, they wouldn’t be in this position. They would’ve played at home and won a playoff game.#Finsup

Another disappointing end to a @MiamiDolphins season that had a lot of promise. I still believe in Tua and Coach McDaniel, but absolutely must accomplish something tangible next year. #FinsUp

A lifetime of pain continues. #FinsUp

Brutal loss today. Have too many thoughts and complaints to write a coherent tweet. The overall sentiment though is that something needs to change. Sick of watching my dolphins fold under pressure. #FinsUp

Can’t keep sticking with Tua…. #FinsUp

And now Sept-November doesn’t matter cause all we will hear is
“cool, now do it in the cold against a good team.”
Which will be rightfully deserved.#FinsUp
