Ryan Tannehill was excellent, completing 23-31 passes for 278 yards and 2 TD's.
He was crisp. Accurate. Smart. Everything you've been waiting for out of the third year QB.
Maybe Joe Philbin's silly antics this week worked? Who knows.
It wasn't just Tannehill though.
Brian Hartline was terrific. Mike Wallace was, well, Mike Wallace. Lamar Miller, fumbling issue aside, had a career day, scoring two TD's.
The defense, after the first drive, was nothing short of dominant.
Brent Grimes had an INT. Walt Aikens had an INT. Cortland Finnegan returned a fumble for a touchdown.
When this group gets a lead they're fun to watch, folks.
Sure, there were problems. Mike Wallace, Jarvis Landry, and Lamar Miller all fumbled. That can't happen.
The defense was gashed the first possession.
But, for the most part, it was as close to a flawless afternoon for this team as I've seen in a long, long time.
And going into a much needed bye week, that's a HUGE accomplishment for a team that's faced it's fair share of adversity this season.
More to come.
