Chris Bell was a standout receiver for Miami, racking up 66 yards, and Breece Hall led New York's ground game with 58 rushing yards, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Dolphins' balanced offensive performance.

The turning point came late in the second half when the Dolphins' defense stifled a crucial Jets drive, allowing Miami to hold on to their lead and clinch the win.
