Giants clobbered by Dolphins, 31-16, in latest embarrassment

The New York Giants faced off against the dynamic Miami Dolphins down at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida on Sunday afternoon in hopes of pulling off an upset that could rejuvenate their sagging season.

The Giants entered the game as 12.5-point underdogs to the Dolphins, who lead the NFL in offensive yards gained and total points through the first four weeks of the 2023 regular season.

The Giants played without Pro Bowl running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) for the third straight week and were also missing left tackle Andrew Thomas (hamstring) and center John Michael Schmitz (shoulder).

Needless to say, there was no upset and there was no rejuvenation. Instead, the Giants were smacked around and lost quarterback Daniel Jones (neck) in the process.

The Giants spent a lot of energy increasing their team speed. That effort will be under scrutiny this week when they face the fleet Dolphins offense, which features wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle as well as rookie running back De’Von Achane.

“Try to put our fastest guys out there and give them as good of looks as we can,” head coach Brian Daboll said when asked about his strategy.

“That’s what you do each week. So obviously, those two guys are lightning speed. But we’ve used all our receivers on the look team this week, guys that can run, and try to give them the best look we can.”
