Winners and losers from Dolphins' surprising beatdown of the Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons were without their starting quarterback and No. 1 wide receiver, but that still doesn't diminish what the Miami Dolphins were capable of in their second win of the season.

The Dolphins dominated in their 34-10 victory at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. As a result, the winners' section on Miami's side is unexpectedly heavy this week.
