The New York Jets look to get back on the winning track in Week 3 against the Miami Dolphins.
The New York Jets will try to improve to 2-0 in the AFC East on Sunday when they travel to Miami for a Week 3 matchup against the Dolphins. The Jets are coming off an ugly 17-point loss to the Steelers in which quarterback Mark Sanchez completed only 10 of 27 attempts. After the poor performance, there were the inevitable Tim Tebow questions, which bothered head coach Rex Ryan this week. They'll have an opportunity to bounce back against the Dolphins, who pulled off an upset thrashing of the Raiders in Week 2.
Quarterback Ryan Tannehill was one of three rookies who picked up his first career win last Sunday. Tannehill was 18 of 30 for 200 yards and a touchdown, managing the offense in the blowout. Miami relied on the running game, which was led by Reggie Bush. The former Heisman winner had one of his best days as a pro and looks to be a key part of the Miami offense early in the season, but the Jets had success bottling up the Pittsburgh ground game last week. Miami will need Tannehill to make some plays through the air for another upset at Sun Life Stadium.
The Dolphins are home underdogs, getting 3 points from the Jets. Kick is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET and CBS will have the broadcast.
