The New York Giants hobbled into their Week 13 matchup with the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday. They hobbled out with another humiliating loss that is sure to further erode fan confidence and interest.

Mike Glennon was in at quarterback for the injured Daniel Jones (neck), who could be done the season. Jones is ‘week-to-week’ right now but reports indicate he could miss significant time depending on medical tests this week.

First-round draft pick Kadarius Toney and veteran wideout Sterling Shepard were both inactive again with quad issues, as was starting cornerback Adoree’ Jackson.

Right tackle Nate Solder (elbow), tight end Kyle Rudolph (ankle), wide receiver John Ross (illness/quad) and fullback/special teamer Cullen Gillaspia (calf) all dressed but entered the game with ‘questionable’ tags.

Wide receiver Kenny Golladay left the game in the second quarter with injured ribs but returned in the second half.

The defense picked up where they left off last week against Philadelphia and carried the team the best they could, but the offense is still so pathetically bad that a 10-6 deficit after three quarters seemed insurmountable.

When Miami scored a touchdown early in the fourth quarter to extend their lead to 17-6, the game was essentially sealed. The final was 20-9.

Glennon is a professional backup and he has his limitations, which he showed several times during the afternoon. He got little help from his teammates and coaches in this game which didn’t help.

The Giants dropped to 4-8 on the year and have now lost eight or more games for the fifth straight season and in eight of their last nine.

Notes

The point spread at game time was Miami -7 with an over/under of 40. That was a layup given the way the Giants have played this year. The nine points scored in this game were the lowest output of the season. They have scored 20 or fewer points in eight of their 12 games this year. They have not scored 30 points in a game this season. The Giants committed just one turnover — a deep pass that was intercepted — and were flagged for just three penalties for 23 yards. For the first time this season, the Giants did not have a takeaway. The Giants surrendered a touchdown with 26 seconds remaining in the first half. They have now been outscored 52-0 in the final two minutes of the first half this season. Graham Gano’s 51-yard field goal in the fourth quarter set a new franchise record for 50-yarders in a single season (6).
