@_MLFootball People need to stop trash-talking after games. Leave it to the players to handle their business on the field. Nobody wants to hear all the negative things from work after you clock out.

@NFL_DovKleiman Bruh, leave the dude alone once’s he’s off the field. It’s so simple.

Tyreek Hill had a difficult time finding any momentum against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. He finished the night with just 40 receiving yards for four catches. Shane Steichen's team took an early lead, thanks to a 24-yard field goal by Spencer Shrader in the first quarter.

They continued their offensive dominance throughout the first half. Quarterback Daniel Jones scored two total touchdowns, followed by another field goal by Shrader to give the Colts a 20-0 lead.

In the second half, Spencer Shrader and Daniel Jones continued to light up the scoreboard. The only time the Dolphins found the end zone was when quarterback Tua Tagovailoa connected with De'Von Achane for an 11-yard passing touchdown in the fourth quarter.

Unfortunately, the damage was already done for Mike McDaniel's team to make any realistic comeback.

Tyreek Hill shares thoughts on disappointing season-opening loss to the Colts

"This is a big kick in the ball for us," Hill said (as per ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques).

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill: “This was a big kick in the balls for us.”

Last season, the Dolphins failed to qualify after finishing second in the AFC East with an 8-9 record. That left Hill unhappy with the outcome, and he hinted at the possibility of exiting.

However, the wide receiver ended up staying in Miami but had already lost the trust of his teammates because of his comments, including quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

The Dolphins next take on the New England Patriots at Hard Rock Stadium on Sept.14. The game will be broadcast on CBS at 1 p.m. ET.
