Griese Returns As Dolphins Blank Bengals 21-0
Miami quarterback Bob Griese returned from a knee injury to play the fourth quarter and help the Dolphins rout the winless Cincinnati Bengals 21-0. Griese connected twice on four passes, with one incomplete and one dropped, as coach Don Shula weighed starting him Sunday in San Diego. He said the knee felt fine, though not in peak shape, and blamed rust for the stalled late drive from the Bengals’ 37.
