MEADOWLANDS, NJ--Sometimes it's better not to question a victory but rather just enjoy it for what it is.  That's exactly what the Miami Dolphins did as they defeated the New York Jets in sloppy fashion 30-25. 

The Fins couldn't run the football, or for that matter pass it.  Chad Henne had a pedestrian 112 yards as the offense mustered six points getting a D.

Defensively the Fins gave up big points, but when it mattered most they held the Jets on two crucial plays to secure the victory, for that they get a C.

Now here's where we can get excited.  It doesn't get any better on special teams than the two touchdowns Ted Ginn, Jr. returned on kickoffs.  The Dolphins put up 17 points earning an A.

Tony Sparano at times tried to once again outsmart himself, but got a victory and he's not afraid to shake things up either.  The coaching gets a C+

Overall a C+.  The Dolphins got a win which is most important.  But how they got it still remains to be explained.
