The New York Giants have been able to sprinkle in wins here and there, but they haven’t been able to sustain success, and they’ve played their worst ball on the road. The Miami Dolphins have quietly put together four straight wins, as the defense has flipped a switch looking like one of the better units in the league, and we’re seeing Tagovailoa get better and better each week. The Dolphins aren’t the same team they were during their seven-game winning streak, and now they have to be thinking about sneaking in that wild card spot. This should be a comfortable win for the home team.
