My Team of the Week (Week 2)


        This was a hard decision to make and even though I hate to say it, the Dolphins are my team of the week in week 2 of the NFL season. Their comeback was unbelievable and unheard of as they advanced to a rare 2-0 start.

        It was a 35-14 game late in the second half and I turned to my friends who are dolphins fans and said turn the game off its over no need to keep watching. Boy was I wrong! The Ravens defense collapsed so badly that it was almost as if it was unethical for them to not give up a touchdown to the dolphins every drive.

        Lamar Jackson did everything he could and had easily one of the best games of his career, but his defense could not bail him out. Led by Tua, Jaylen Waddle, and Tyreek Hill the dolphins turned a 21 point deficit to a 4 point victory.

        Tua turned a lot of heads this week after throwing for a good chunk of yardage along with 6 touchdowns. Not to mention waddle and hill both had over 170 receiving yards which is almost unheard of for a single game for 2 receivers on the same team! 

        Their defense looked awful throughout the entire game, but that didn't affect how their offense performed in that 4th quarter whatsoever. It was definitely one of the most unbelievable comebacks that I have ever seen happen in that short period of time. Along with the dolphins the rest of the AFC East dominated this week as each and every team in the division pulled off convincing W's and the New York Jets were runners-up for team of the week this week as well. 

        The Dolphins broke records, pulled off an unbelievable win, and might have pulled off the best victory they have ever had in the history of their historic franchise. In recent history, this and the Miami Miracle certainly show how clutch the Dolphins can be and that is why they got team of the week in week 2.
