EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Miami Dolphins have won four consecutive games after a 34-10 victory over the hapless New York Jets.

The Dolphins have improved from 1-6 to 6-7 and are mathematically alive in the AFC playoff hunt.

The Jets played without Quinnen Williams and Sauce Gardner (traded) and Justin Fields (injury). They also lost quarterback Tyrod Taylor to a groin injury in the first half of this game.

Dolphin Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa improved to 1-7 when the temperature is 46 degrees or colder at kickoff. It was 41 degrees.

The odds of Mike McDaniel returning as Miami head coach in 2026 appear to be improving each week.

The Jets drop to 3-10 on the season. Now the Jets prepare to go on the road to face the Jacksonville Jaguars next week.
