Dolphins winless after first half of season

The Miami Dolphins had the privilege of playing in the first ever regular season NFL game outside the United States. On a cold, wet London evening at Wembley Stadium, the Dolphins lost a sloppy game to the NY Giants, 13-10, hopefully not turning British fans off NFL football forever.

The Dolphins have now started the season 0-8, with 11 straight losses dating back to last season. The weather adversely affected both offenses, with both teams combining for less than 500 yards. The Dolphins D held the Giants to 59 yards passing... and still lost. Cleo Lemon completed 17 of 30 passes for a measly 149 yards, with one touchdown in the final minutes of the game to Ted Ginn Jr., his first TD reception as a pro. Jesse Chatman filled in for Ronnie Brown by rushing 16 times for 79 yards.

The team has a bye week coming up before starting the second half of the season. Let's hope things start getting better.
