Dolphins take care of business against the Raiders – The Splash Zone 11/18/24

For the first time this season, the Miami Dolphins have a two game win streak after defeating the Las Vegas Raiders yesterday afternoon. The Dolphins offense was methodical as they did not have to punt at all yesterday. Tight end Jonnu Smith has become a weapon over the past few weeks as he went for 101 yards and 2 touchdowns on 6 receptions. It could have been a bit cleaner on defense, but the Dolphins will take a win any way they can get it right now. Next weekend, the Dolphins will host the New England Patriots for an AFC East showdown.

You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
