The Jets only could envy their opponent’s stability at quarterback going into Saturday night’s matchup with the AFC East-rival Dolphins.
What remains a perpetual merry-go-round position for Gang Green has been — for better or worse — a virtual rock for Miami, as witnessed by what the Dolphins did when Ryan Tannehill likely was lost for the season with a knee injury in a victory last week over the Cardinals.
In stepped Matt Moore, a veteran who until Saturday had not started an NFL game since 2011 but who has been the Dolphins’ primary backup since the following season — despite numerous chances to start elsewhere.
