The New York Giants trail the Miami Dolphins 10-7 at halftime.
The game started about how we would have expected a showdown between a 2-11 team and a 3-10 team — with a whole lot of nothing.
The Giants benefited from a missed field goal and fourth-down stand from their defense against the Dolphins’ offense for good field position, but drops and miscues forced punts on their part.
The action picked up in the second half when the two teams traded touchdown drives. The Dolphins scored first, driving 98 yards, with Ryan Fitzpatrick — who went to Harvard, by the way — completing every pass attempt.
