NFL power rankings: Week 8 sees the Eagles sitting at No. 1
By Peter Panacy
The Dolphins might actually be better off with quarterback Matt Moore under center rather than Jay Cutler, who exited the game over the Jets with a chest injury.
Both Moore and Cutler put up decent numbers, each throwing two touchdowns against one interception apiece. But Moore was a key factor in Miami’s second-half comeback over New York, eventually tying the game at 28 with a touchdown pass to wide receiver Kenny Stills late in the fourth quarter.
Dolphins running back Jay Ajayi wasn’t much of a factor, but Stills and fellow wideout Jarvis Landry were.
The Dolphins defense might not be playing up to expectations this season, but a key road victory over the Jets certainly looks good.
