The Splash Zone 10/9/23: Dolphins defeat Giants, improve to 4-1

For the first time since 2003, the Miami Dolphins have a record of 4-1 and sit on top of the AFC East. The Dolphins offense had over 500 yards of offense and put up 31 points on the New York Giants. But it could have been so much better had Tua Tagovailoa not thrown two boneheaded interceptions. Despite the mistakes, the Dolphins offense is still a high octane machine, which gives the Dolphins a chance to win any game. Next up for the Dolphins is the Carolina Panthers, who are currently winless.

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