Why Giants aren’t expecting a tank-fest with Dolphins

If the Dolphins are tanking, what in the name of losing football are the Giants doing?

Accused by fans, media and ex-NFL players of fielding a non-competitive team this season in hopes of landing the No. 1 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Dolphins (3-10) enter Sunday’s game against the Giants (2-11) with the better record.

It’s a truth that sounded impossible only a few weeks ago and even bookmakers who list the Giants as a 3-point home favorite don’t want to believe it.

The possibility of setting a franchise record with a 10th straight loss is insulting enough to the Giants.
