The Giants kicked off the game and started off with a promising drive. They gained early success by utilizing their former Dolphins running back, Matt Breida, who rushed for a solid six yards up the middle. Quarterback Daniel Jones then connected with wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins for an impressive 15-yard gain. However, the momentum quickly fizzled out as the drive came to an end with a mere five additional yards before the Giants were forced to punt.

For the Dolphins, their key focus will be on shutting down the Giants' rushing attack, particularly in the middle. If they can effectively neutralize this aspect of the Giants' offense, it will significantly bolster their chances of securing a victory.

Miami's rookie running back, De'Von Achane, wasted no time making an impact as he kick-started the Dolphins' offensive drive with an explosive 24-yard gain on an end-around play. This showcased the immediate rhythm and cohesion of the Dolphins' offense. Throughout the drive, which consisted of eight plays, the Dolphins only had one incomplete pass. Their shortest gain was a modest two yards, while they also had impressive gains of 24, 20, and 23 yards. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa sealed the drive with a two-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, putting the Dolphins ahead 7-0.

The Dolphins have certainly set the tone early in the game, displaying their offensive prowess and ability to capitalize on opportunities. As the game progresses, it will be intriguing to see how both teams respond and adapt to the challenges they face. Will the Giants find a way to bounce back and regain control, or will the Dolphins continue their dominant performance? Only time will tell. Stay tuned for more updates and analysis as the game unfolds.
