It's been a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time since anyone who follows Miami has see a performance like that today from a pair of WRs in the same game.  Tua had a helluva game too although it still looks like Hill is just too fast for him as he had to come back a little bit on that deep throw for the TD.  Good to see them come back after being down 28-7 at the half in Baltimore of all places (kinda a house of horrors for them).

Down 35-14 entering the 4th, too. Scored 28 points in the final quarter and allowed just a field goal to win this one. I've never seen the Dolphins do that before.

Dolphins good?

 

 

Also first Dolphins win in Baltimore since 1997.

wouldn't go that far just yet.  too early to tell.  They have a ridiculous group of WRs though.  That OL though man....phew....it's been a sore spot for ages now and they just can't seem to fix it.  If the OL ever improves drastically and keeps Tua upright I think they'll do pretty well.

They didn't allow a sack today so there's that.

The one sack Tua did take was because a tight end missed a block.

Yep...and 42pts were the result!

 

that said....that line is still very suspect - if they could somehow get a running game to the point people have to respect it at least a tiny bit? phew....OFFENSIVE EXPLOSION!

Certainly. Also worth noting Armstead was playing with a foot [toe?] injury and probably played the best of anyone on the line.

yeah he has a lengthy injury history - he's great if he can stay healthy. the rest of the line though is a question mark still.  time will tell! 

 

They nutted up though today when it counted and came back.  Good for them.  I would like to have ONE team that is actually worth watching.

I've been so grateful for UCF Football the last five years for this exact reason. Lol.

And I HATE th current NFL product out there and haven't watched any football outside of a few quarters of the Superbowl (stop watching after halftime show usually). Nothing to do with Miami also being shitty - I just think the NFL is insanely boring to watch now.  I follow Miami in boxscores and news and always will though. If they start actually dominating I may get that Sunday ticket or whatever it's called though.

Hoping NFL goes fully available on streaming services soon cause I rarely get Dolphins games broadcast in Orlando. I got the first two games this year so far which is the first time since I moved here.

The NFL has been very exciting the first two weeks. A bunch of crazy comebacks/endings to games, Dolphins game included.

It’s been the opposite of Marlins baseball.

my biggest gripe is that there's waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much offense in the NFL now.  I mean I don't see much point in watching teams going up and down the field over and over and over.  Every week it seems like there are multiple 40+ pt games from various teams.  You MAAAAYBE would get 1 on a given week back in the mid 90s to mid 2000's but it wasn't like teams were only scoring 7pts or something either...there was just a much better balance to the games that made the truly big plays that much more exciting.  I know, i'm in the minority but I have tried every year to watch games for the last decade and literally....just meh.
