Team Grades: Giants Eliminate Dolphins From Playoff Contention With 31-24 Victory

By Abraham Gutierrez

The New York Giants spoiled the Miami Dolphins celebration of the 50 greatest players with a 31-24 victory at Sun Life Stadium on the strength of near flawless performances from Eli Manning and wide receiver Odell Beckham. The win improves the G-Men’s record to 6-7 on the season, which brings Tom Coughlin & Co. into a three-way tie with the Washington Redskins and Philadelphia Eagles atop the NFC East division.

For Miami, the loss drops the Fins to 5-8 on the year, which automatically eliminates them from playoff contention in the AFC, and puts Dan Campbell’s head coaching job in limbo with three games to play.
