The New York Jets will face the Miami Dolphins in a game that will see both teams looking to post their first win of the season.
Given the status of both teams, the Jets perhaps aren't in a position people didn't expect them to be in, but for Miami, some thought this was a playoff team. Neither looks too good right now.
But for head coach Aaron Glenn, he knows that the rebuild will take time, and that there will be ups and downs throughout the season, and now comes another opportunity to continue building brick by brick.
And make no mistake, Glenn knows what is waiting for his team when they get to Miami.
"We're in a dog fight," Glenn said. "We have to make sure that the mindset is right, which the mindset will be right. We have one focus in mind, and that's to go down to Miami and go get a win, and we're looking forward to that.”

Who will be QB for Jets vs. Miami?
Justin Fields hit the practice field on Thursday as he looks to work his way back from a concussion, with Tyrod Taylor playing well in the second half of the loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Both quarterbacks have shown bright spots, but also have been poor at times, so it will be an interesting decision to see which way the coaching staff will lean.
We think if Fields is healthy, he gets the starting nod, but after Taylor nearly secured an unlikely comeback, who knows? Maybe the coaching staff wants to see a little more.
Either way, New York is in need of something to break their way, and against the 0-3 Dolphins, a win might just be on the way.
