One thing became evident in Week 1 of the NFL season: the Miami Dolphins are a team that launches an offensive onslaught rapidly.

One of their significant strengths lies in their aerial attack. They’re a hotspot for completions and explosive plays. Much of the credit goes to their top-notch receiving duo: Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill. Their dual attack renders them virtually unstoppable, making the Dolphins a nightmare for any secondary.

While the offense is turning heads, it’s essential to zoom in on their core strength: quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. His performance is paramount to the Dolphins’ success. The goal should be clear: protect him. The increased risk of concussions and other injuries due to hits and potential falls is concerning. If the Dolphins want to maximize their success this season, they must ensure Tua remains upright, avoiding the hard impacts that come with being a pocket passer in the NFL. Given a clean pocket and time to make decisions, Tagovailoa emerges as one of the NFL’s most lethal quarterbacks.

A glance at their defense might raise some eyebrows, especially after conceding 34 points during their recent game against the Los Angeles Chargers. But context is critical. The Dolphins had to manage the taxing cross-country flight and adjust to the West Coast clock. Yet, they overcame these challenges and secured a win. The number of points allowed isn’t the primary concern. However, the Dolphins’ resilience and determination solidify their reputation as a formidable playoff contender.

The return of Jalen Ramsey later this season will only bolster their defensive prowess. But for now, the formula is clear: keep Tua protected, exploit the Waddle-Hill dynamic, and build upon their defensive strengths.

It’s hard to argue against their emerging dominance. As this season progresses, remember this: The Dolphins aren’t just a playoff team; they’re a genuine threat to any opponent they face.
