kickoff against the New York Giants (+6.5) this afternoon. Normally, inter-conference meetings such as this one only happen every four years, but the Dolphins faced the Giants just two years ago. As part of the league’s expansion to a 17-game regular season, they added another inter-conference meeting, which, for Miami, means they are facing the Giants.
Miami enters this game looking to extend their current four-game winning streak. Miami has climbed from 1-7 on the season to their current 5-7 record, somehow turning a miserable early season into a team that is fighting their way back into playoff contention.
