While Ricky Williams was shut down by the Giants’ defense, the Dolphins were able to force four turnovers and defeat the Giants.

A favorite to go to the Super Bowl by some experts in the beginning of the season, the Giants are fading fast. The 2-2 Giants seem to have a jinx on special teams.

First it was the playoff loss against the San Francisco 49ers because of long-snapping problems; on Sunday it was Matt Bryant hurting his hamstring.

It hurt the Giants the most at the beginning of the third quarter when Giants Coach Jim Fossil sent in punter Jeff Feagles to try and cap off a nine minute drive with a chip shot field goal. Feagles, who had never attempted a NFL kick, missed wide right.

After that it was all cruise control for the Dolphins, who move to first in the AFC East.
