MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Any notions of the Jets still having a glimmer of hope at making a playoff run melted in the South Florida heat Sunday.

The Dolphins beat the Jets 13-6 in a game that set back offensive football about 80 years. No one told the Jets and Dolphins the NFL has become dominated by offense.

This was a game dominated by punters as both offenses sputtered and slipped up all day long. The only touchdown in the game came on an interception return for a score by Miami linebacker Jerome Baker with 10:56 left to go in the fourth quarter.
