Tua Tagovailoa threw for 303 yards and three TDs to offset 179 rushing yards from Bears QB Justin Fields in a shootout.
The game-deciding score was a 3-yard touchdown pass from Tagovailoa to newly-acquired running back Jeff Wilson with 6:07 left in the third quarter.Tyreek Hill caught seven passes for 143 yards.The Dolphins have won three consecutive games, improving to 6-3, and closing with a half-game of the Bills in the AFC East.Tua Tagovailoa's early-season production appears no fluke.What's most startling is how Tua continues to complete deep ball after deep ball to Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
What is more encouraging for Miami is that Tua is going to be among the league leaders in yards per attempt.Tua is playing with an incredible amount of confidence in himself and the offensive scheme and his teammates. What a complete 180 from last season.In the second quarter, Tyreek Hill went over 1,000 receiving yards for the season.Hill may end up as the best offensive player in Dolphins history other than Dan Marino.
Considering that entering the game, Phillips was 31st among Dolphins players with only 19 special teams snaps, the Bears may not have been expecting to see him on that play. It's possible that the addition of a stud edge rusher like Bradley Chubb could open a top players like Phillips for a few additional special teams snaps.
Howard is a Pro Bowler. He is playing through groin injuries. He is playing without Pro Bowler Byron Jones at the opposite corner.At the end of the third quarter, Howard was called for holding on a less-than-obvious violation. On that play, Howard came up with what would have been his first interception of the season.
