2.) Miami Dolphins - won vs. Los Angeles Chargers, 36-34

In the game of the week in Englewood, California, the Miami Dolphins traveled to play the Los Angeles Chargers in which it would turn into a burnburner of a game. In a back and forth game between these two high-powered offenses, it was Dolphins’ quarterback Tua Tagovailoa who shined with 466 passing yards and three touchdowns, with two of them going to Tyreek Hill (11 receptions, 215 yards and two touchdowns). 

There were six total touchdowns between these two teams and it featured the number five and number six pick in the 2020 draft with Tua and Justin Herbert. After the Dolphins took the lead with 1:45 left in the fourth, this is where Herbert, who just received a huge contract extension this offseason, was set up to make a comeback win.

Instead, after the Dolphins defense was being shredded, they came up with three consecutive sacks on the last Chargers drive that sealed the deal. After an electrifying win, the Dolphins will get back on the plan to head north for a visit with the Patriots.
