Monday’s roundup: Beckham’s 2 TDs help Giants beat Dolphins

Ryan Tannehill found Kenny Stills for a 47-yard touchdown to restore Miami’s advantage midway through the third quarter, but Beckham Jr was determined to get the Giants back into the game and he levelled the scores with yet another sensational catch.

Needing a win over the Dolphins in Miami Monday night, they played a complete game for only the third time this season.

EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey – For all the Giants offense accomplished in their 31-24 win over the Dolphins, Tom Coughlin was grateful Tuesday for two plays that involved neither a pass nor run.

When asked if losing has become more than he can handle Campbell said, “I would say this: I’ve been here six years and nothing has gone the way we wanted it to be”. And I think he’s well aware of that, and well aware of his role in leading us to compete and have a chance to win. His passer rating of 151.5 was his highest since 2009, and his 87-percent completion percentage was a career high.

But now, the Giants have three most games that they would like to win and if they win those, they are almost guaranteed a spot in the playoffs.

The NFL announced earlier Monday that its December 27 prime-time matchup would hinge on the result of the game between NY and the Dolphins.

The best the team can finish is.500, which means Miami will have its seventh consecutive non-winning season.

As far as Monday night was concerned, the humbled Beckham, who finished with seven receptions for 166 yards and two touchdowns, admitted that he was indeed sick in the truest definition of the word. The last time Beckham jr. recorded less than 100 yards receiving was in October. The game was a microcosm of the Giants’ season – with their warts exposed for all to see, yet with opportunities still presenting themselves for success. The Giants’ visit to Minnesota in Week 16 now shifts into “Sunday Night Football” on NBC under the league’s flexible scheduling policy.

GOING DEEP: Beckham’s long touchdown catch put the Giants ahead to stay with 11 minutes to go.

“They got it to a star player, and he made plays for them”, Dolphins defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said. It appeared Taylor thought he would have help over the top from strong safety Reshad Jones, but Jones said that wasn’t the case.

The Dolphins, who honored the 50 greatest players in franchise history during a halftime ceremony, have not made the playoffs since 2008. While his play is nothing short of torrid, Beckham is still giving the credit to the team around him.

The Bengals (10-3) lead the AFC North by two games over Pittsburgh (8-5). Beckham made a sliding catch inside two minutes to keep the ball away from Miami.

Beckham’s connection with Landry was a big storyline entering the night. He told them “The playoffs start now” because they can’t afford any more losses at this stage of the season. Vincent Jackson was 2-for-6 for 31 yards with a pass defensed and an interception. He briefly lay motionless when he was injured covering the kickoff to start the second half, but walked off the field…. The Dolphins would take the lead on a 14-yard Lamar Miller run, making it 7-3 Dolphins at the end of one.
