Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley states there could be consequences looming for one of Miami\u2019s most frustrating moments from a 27-13 loss to Las Vegas. <\/p>\n

One of the first warning signs that things would go awry on Sunday in Las Vegas<\/a> for the Miami Dolphins<\/a> came upon their first defensive stop. <\/p>\n

Miami safety Zayne Anderson crashed into a Raiders receiver on third down, forcing the football to fall harmlessly to the ground. But then, after a long delay, a yellow flag fell to the ground. And the Raiders were awarded a fresh set of downs courtesy of a \u201ctaunting\u201d penalty via CB JuJu Brents. It cost the Dolphins points early \u2014\u00a0a deficit they never recovered from. And, after the game, head coach Jeff Hafley touched on the play in question. There may be consequences looming for Brents. <\/p>\n

Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley states that CB JuJu Brents could be fined for taunting penalty that helped swing loss to Raiders<\/p>\n

\u201cI asked. They just told me they called him for taunting. Which was obviously one of the biggest calls in the game. It\u2019s a third-down stop, and it led to\u2026points. That\u2019s a huge momentum swing in the game. So we\u2019ll watch the film and learn from it, but that\u2019s something that we\u2019ve emphasized. You can\u2019t taunt. So if it was indeed taunting, then he\u2019s going to get fined for it. You can\u2019t do it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The penalty in question was\u2026let\u2019s just call it questionable at best. The penalty drew ire from the broadcast team, too \u2014\u00a0as Brents held his hands out to signal incomplete while standing next to the Raiders\u2019 receiver, waiting for SAF Zayne Anderson to return to the field of play. But I will say this, Hafley being very matter of fact about an incident like this is something I can appreciate. <\/p>\n

A costly mistake deserves consequences. I remember a few years ago watching one Dolphins linebacker make several costly miscues on special teams in consecutive games \u2014\u00a0while never having any known repercussions for errors that were hurting the team. If you play poorly, your playing time should be on notice. If you make an unforced, avoidable error, there should be some blowback. <\/p>\n

Perhaps the Dolphins will determine that the side judge in this case is full of mud. And if that\u2019s the case, they\u2019ll band together and try to put it behind them. But if they determine Brents was at fault, we know for certain there\u2019s a punishment awaiting him. There were plenty of errors on Sunday. Few were more costly than that penalty call, though. So Brents will need to hope Hafley sees the exchange as innocently as the broadcast team seemed to believe. Or else. <\/p>\n
