The Splash Zone 12/2/19: Dolphins Embarrass The Eagles

I’d say this was the upset of the week, but the Cincinnati Bengals got their first win against the New York Jets yesterday. It didn’t start out great, but this Dolphins team rallied in the second half with great plays from young players and some trickery. Hats off to Brian Flores who has gotten three wins out of what was supposed to be the worst roster in the league and not win a game all year. On a side note, that was the most fun I have had on a football Sunday in ages, that was a joy to watch.

You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
