• Just to provide an idea of the significance of this victory, it was the Dolphins’ most lopsided road victory against the Jets since a 43-0 rout at Shea Stadium way back in 1975.
• This really was beautiful to watch from a Dolphins perspective, from the performance of backup quarterback

• Where do you start with the special teams? A perfectly executed surprise onside kick after the first score of the game?





• The Dolphins defense shut down the Jets running game just the way we figured they would and teed off on Mark Sanchez all afternoon.
• There was quite the buildup for this game with the back-and-forth during the week involving Rex Ryan (how shocking!),


• The Dolphins got to have the last laugh (most of them, actually) on Sunday and we can just imagine what Bush told Ryan when he wound up near the Jets bench at the end of a run in the second half.
• And did you catch

• That onside kick after the Dolphins’ first field goal was just awesome, from the guts to make the call to the execution. That the Dolphins went three-and-out after

• Of course, that drive right after the onside kick ended with

• Despite not seeing any action to this point in the season, Moore had his share of beautiful throws, including a 17-yard strike to Hartline in the first quarter, a bomb to


• Gaffney finally made his Dolphins debut three weeks after being signed and his first catch in a Miami uniform was a 30-yard gain. His drop aside, he’s somebody who rounds out nicely the wide receiver corps.

• Wilson’s sack was part of a day where the Dolphins blitz was tremendously effective. In addition to Wilson’s big play,

• Wow, Tim Tebow sure made a big difference in this game, didn’t he?
• How about that footwork by

• Here’s the bottom line in this thing: The Dolphins didn’t run the ball particularly well and they still spanked the Jets. Miami now finds itself at 4-3, only half a game behind the Patriots in the AFC East.
• The Dolphins’ next three games are against the Colts, Titans and Bills, and envisioning a 7-3 record isn’t that crazy anymore. Then again, let’s take things one at a time. Indy, we must remind you, is 4-3 and that rookie quarterback of theirs isn’t too shabby.
• What remains to be seen is whether we’ll have a battle of rookie first-round QBs next week or whether Tannehill will have to sit out the game. Regardless, the Dolphins showed Sunday against the Jets they’re a pretty complete team that doesn’t solely rely on one player.
