Two minutes later, Platek scored the go-ahead TD.

Platek also caught a touchdown pass earlier from quarterback Mike Piatkowski, as did Spencer Cady and Mike Bilton. Piatkowski was 17 for 29 for 212 yards passing and ran for one TD.

Jacksonville had kept the lead most of the game as quarterback Josh McGregor had 321 passing yards for three touchdowns.

The Dolphins' Kennan Bowe returned an interception 35 yards for a TD.
