MIAMI GARDENS (CBSMiami/AP) — A real chess match could play out on the field during Monday Night football this week.

The New York Giants rank last in the NFL in pass defense, which will tempt the Miami Dolphins to revert to their old ways Monday night.

After the Dolphins threw 58 times two weeks ago, they fired their offensive coordinator and passed only 19 times in last week’s win over Baltimore. But Miami’s newfound devotion to the ground game will be tested against New York.
