The Jets-Dolphins game was everything you could have wanted. The game went down to wire with the Jets pulling out the 20-14 victory.Brett Favre was, at times, amazing. His two TD passes came on great plays by him: a beautiful play-action pass deep to Jerricho Cotchery and a gritty (and lucky) pass to Chansi Stuckey on a 4th-and-13. He managed the game very well and didn't do anything stupid.
Add to the fact that the Dolphins were very competitive -- which isn't a huge surprise to those who watched them last season.
Sure, Miami was a horrid 1-15 last year .. but it wasn't as if they were totally inept. They took the Washington Redskins into overtime before falling 16-13 at FedEx Field ... just the first of five games the Dolphins lost by exactly three points.
Today, the Dolphins kept that fight alive. Trailing 20-7, Miami rallied late with an amazing drive that ended with Chad Pennington's 11-yard TD pass to Derek Martin. After stuffing the Jets, Miami again waltzed down the field to the New York 18-yd line. After a couple tough incompletions, Pennington was picked off in the end zone and the game was over.
