The Jets were good enough Monday night to win handily with a 24-6 rout of the Dolphins.

That’s not saying much — the Dolphins, five games in, already have the appearance of a team ready for the season to end. Between Tony Sparano opting to run the clock out at the end of the first half, Matt Moore tossing high-arcing lobs from sideline to sideline and the defensive line giving Mark Sanchez a virtual day off, Miami looked more like a team that will challenge 0-16 than one capable of winning on the road on national TV.

Against a better and more motivated opponent, the Jets’ effort might not fly. If not for a 100-yard Darrelle Revis interception return in the first half, who knows what would have happened.

Miami led 3-0 when Revis eased Brandon Marshall out of the way and picked Moore off in the end zone. A Mark Sanchez 5-yard TD run just before the half pushed the Jets’ lead up to 14-6 and effectively ended Miami’s hopes. Nothing that happened from then on could be considered inspiring.
