The full read
Jahmyr Gibbs scored the only touchdown of the game against the Dolphins: 20 carries, 74 yards and +0.2 expected points added (EPA), what a play was worth given down, distance and field position. 8 of his 20 carries, 40%, were successful, meaning they gained what the situation asked for. His one target fell incomplete.
The score came up 9-6 with 1:25 left in the third. Fourth and 1 at the Miami 8, Detroit kept its offense on the field, and Gibbs went around right end for the touchdown: +3.3 EPA and 8.6 points of win probability, the estimate of each side's chance to win, and 16-6 after the extra point. On the opening drive he took a direct snap around left end for 16 yards to the Miami 6, +1.1 EPA, but he was stopped for no gain at the 4 two snaps later and Detroit kicked a field goal.
The left side was hard going otherwise: his four other runs around left end lost 5 yards, two of them losing 3 apiece from the Miami 22 before a second-quarter field goal.
Per carry it was a touch above his season. Through Week 8, in seven games, he had 157 carries for 773 yards, 8 touchdowns and -4.0 EPA, -0.03 a carry; here it was +0.01, at 3.7 yards a carry against 4.9. The touchdown was his ninth on the ground this season.
