Brandon Allen completed 5 passes for 45 yards, and Jaxson Dart went 3 for 4 for 26 yards and 1 score. Devin Singletary led all New York receivers last week with 40 yards on 1 catch.

De’Von Achane led the way on the ground for Miami with 39 yards and 1 touchdown on 7 carries. Ollie Gordon also added 39 yards on 7 carries. Caleb Douglas led the way for the Miami receivers with 28 yards on 1 reception, while Jalen Tolbert added 1 catch for 27 yards as well. Jaylen Wright added production out of the backfield with 22 yards on 6 carries last week.

Giants vs Dolphins Pick

Both teams had issues in week 1, as each comes into this matchup winless. Look for Miami, however, to do the job on both sides of the ball to pick up their first victory in the preseason. The Dolphins will overwhelm a bad New York team Saturday, leading to the win and cover in Game 2.
