Despite Miami starting from their own three-yard line and generating 39 yards, the Bengals defense ratcheted up the violence a little, with a jaw-jarring hits from Rey Maualuga and Adam Jones, which forced the Miami Dolphins to punt the football into the endzone with over six minutes remaining.
The collision between Mauauga and running back Daniel Thomas with 7:36 remaining in the fourth quarter, stalled the running back's porgression not unlike slamming into a brick wall.
Rey Maualuga pulled himself out of the game, being evaluated for a possible concussion.
