We Are Still Going To The SB
Hey when we suck, the wrath of hell is unleashed like a blood bath in a **** finding ring. So when, were good, why not go to the opposite extreme..
The Dolphins not only have five victories through eight games, but every one of them has included a double-digit margin. After only eight games, the Dolphins already have more victories by 10 points or more than in any full season since 2003 when they had seven.
Miami is averaging 26.4 points per game, a figure the team hasn’t reached since the 1986 season. Furthermore, the Dolphins scored 24 points or more six times in the first half of the season, marking only the second time in franchise history they accomplished that feat. Not surprisingly, the first time occurred in 1984 when Dan Marino was setting NFL passing records on a regular basis.
The 2014 Dolphins also have done something no Miami team has done since that 1997 season: score 24 or more points in five consecutive games. This year’s Dolphins would have to score 24 or more the rest of the way to match the 1984 team’s feat of 13 consecutive games reaching that mark.
Defensively, the Dolphins remain on pace to break the NFL record for interception return average. Their average actually went down from 43.2 yards to 33.4 after their three-interception day against the Chargers, but that still tops the 33.3-yard record set by the Baltimore Ravens in 2004.
The Dolphins have gained a league-high 301 yards on their nine interception returns this season. Houston is second in interception return yards with 256. The Dolphins are on pace to break the franchise record of 522 yards, established in the inaugural 1966 season.
The Dolphins also ended the first half of the season with 25 sacks, putting them on pace to break the franchise record of 49, set in 1983. Cameron Wake leads the Dolphins with 6.5 sacks, putting him on pace for the third double-digit season of his career. Wake had 14 sacks in 2010 and 15 sacks in 2012.
Through eight games, Tannehill has completed 63.3 percent of his passes, which would put him in fourth place on the Dolphins’ single-season list behind the 67.4 percent of Chad Pennington in 2008 and the 64.2 and 64.1 by Marino in 1984 and 1995, respectively.
Tannehill also has a passer rating of 90.8, which currently ranks as the sixth-highest in franchise history and the best since Pennington’s 97.4 in 2008. Marino holds the record with his 108.9 in 1984, followed by Pennington’s 97.4, Marino’s 96.0 in 1983, Marino’s 92.5 in 1986, and Bob Griese’s 90.9 in 1971.
When it comes to his running, Tannehill is well on his way to breaking the single-season franchise record for quarterbacks. Through eight games, Tannehill already has 245 yards and is 76 yards shy of the record of 321 yards set by Jay Fiedler in 2001.
Tannehill currently ranks fourth in the NFL in rushing yards among quarterbacks — behind Russell Wilson, Colin Kaepernick and Cam Newton — but his 7.9 average leads the league. It also should be noted that Tannehill has three of the six longest runs by a quarterback this season — his 40-yarder against Green Bay, and his 30-yarders against both Chicago and Jacksonville.
