"The Dolphins were shining stars Sunday. They dispatched the Jets with a fairly clean performance (OK, punt coverage had some blemishes) in cold weather, dispelling a false narrative, and staying in the AFC wild-card playoff picture. The running game was the star of the show for the Dolphins but there were plenty of other areas to be proud, including not committing any turnovers. Nice work."
"The Jets offense, compromised as it has been under normal circumstances, was an utter zero when Tyrod Taylor exited. Offensively for Miami, the tectonic shift from the pass-happy Tyreek days of 2022-24 to the bludgeoning run-first personality of now is like 1983 Don Shula with brand-new Dan Marino in reverse. Now, a chance at .500 in a difficult environment in Pittsburgh next Monday night."
Miami improved its record to 6-7, extending a four-game winning streak after defeating the New York Jets at MetLife. The ground attack dominated, producing more than 230 rushing yards even with De'Von Achane sidelined for a half, and the team committed no turnovers. The defense held the Jets out of the end zone and limited Tyrod Taylor after his exit. Punt coverage showed some blemishes in cold weather. The offense’s identity has shifted from recent pass-heavy seasons to a run-first approach. The team now faces a crucial Monday night game in Pittsburgh to bolster playoff chances.
