MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Ryan Fitzpatrick threw three touchdown passes, two of them to the rookie Preston Williams, and the Miami Dolphins got their first win of the season by beating their former coach, Adam Gase, and the Jets, 26-18, on Sunday. The Dolphins avoided what would have been the second 0-8 start in franchise history, joining 2007. The win leaves the Cincinnati Bengals (0-8) as the N.F.L.’s lone winless team this season, and for now the front-runners to win the No. Fitzpatrick completed 24 of 36 passes for 288 yards, and led the Dolphins to their highest point total of the season. It was also Miami’s fourth straight win over the Jets — the first three of those coming with Gase being the coach on the winning side.
