Jets vs. Dolphins: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Sunday's NFL game
Live scores, highlights and updates from the Jets vs. Dolphins football game
This Sunday, the New York Jets are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 32.89 points per game. New York and the Miami Dolphins will face off in an AFC East battle at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday at MetLife Stadium. The Jets have some work to do to even out the 2-8 series between these two since November of 2016, but a win here would be a good start.
New York has to be hurting after a devastating 45-17 defeat at the hands of the Buffalo Bills last week. New York was down 38-3 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. QB Mike White had a memorable game, but not in the way you want to be remembered: besides failing to produce a single touchdown, he threw four interceptions with only 5.7 yards per passing attempt.
Meanwhile, Miami was able to grind out a solid victory over the Baltimore Ravens last Thursday, winning 22-10. Miami's only offensive touchdown came on a rush from QB Tua Tagovailoa. Tagovailoa ended up with a passer rating of 163.60.
Special teams collected ten points for the Dolphins. K Jason Sanders delivered a perfect 3-for-3 game.
The Jets are expected to lose this next one by 3.5. Those betting on them against the spread shouldn't have high expectations for them since the team is 2-7 ATS when expected to lose.
Miami's win lifted them to 3-7 while New York's loss dropped them down to 2-7. Giving up five turnovers, New York had had trouble holding onto the ball. We'll see if the Dolphins can exploit that vulnerability.
