In an exhilarating season opener, the Miami Dolphins clinched a 36-34 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, both of whom are anticipated to be strong AFC playoff contenders. Even with the absence of their Pro Bowl left tackle Terron Armstead on the road – typically a sign of impending trouble – the Dolphins rallied with an impressive offensive display. This was crucial in compensating for their somewhat wobbly defensive performance. Star wide receiver Tyreek Hill, aiming for a 2,000-yard receiving season, showcased his prowess by securing 215 yards from 11 catches, coupled with two touchdowns. With this momentum, Hill is projected to end the season with a whopping 3,655 receiving yards. To hit the 2,000-yard mark and set a new NFL record, he'll need to average 117.6 yards per game.
