I could make a case for any of these guys to get the game ball today. Gase FINALLY made some adjustments with the offense and while we still had some issues punching the ball in he certainly cannot be faulted for it.
How about that offensive line! Together for the first time and wow did they look great. I don't recall feeling nervous a single time that Tannehill dropped back to pass today and the last time I felt that way was the 1st half against the Texans last year. They kept him clean, opened huge running lames and never let Blitzburgh get our O out of rythym. Now please please please stay healthy and aggressive and for once lets look like men against Buffalo.
Tannehill looked decisive and actually had time to make multiple reads and find his open targets. Several times he extended plays by rolling out or avoiding a tackle or making subtle movements in the pocket. Whomever it was who told Ryan and Gase that that is allowed in the NFL deserves serious kudos.
Without a doubt though my vote would go to JTrain Ajayi!!!!! That boy bad!! I love nothing more than seeing a young dreaded badass RB absolutely owning a defense and looking like a vintage Ricky Williams. That's the first time since Moreno in the opener a couple years ago that I can remember our RB setting the tone for the team and putting them on his back with power and 2nd effort.
Props to... Landry for being the stud that he is and always lifting up our boys emotionally. Maxwell for looking like the CB he's paid to be. The D for finally stopping a team from running all over us and for actually tackling guys (minus DHB TD of course). Our TEs for some terrific plays. Our LBs who you know are having a good day when you barely hear their names being called. To all the fans who didn't jump off the Dolphins bandwagon despite all the vitriol spewed in the media and on here. To the fans who have stuck with Tannehill and insisted that with proper NFL blocking that he can be a top 15 or better QB.
A lot of things to clean up before next week but damn it feels good to win today over a very good team and do it in a way where it almost feels disappointing that we didn't blow them out.
Bring on the Jills!!!
