Tua and the Dolphins keep playoff hopes alive in win vs. Rams

Miami's offense finally clicks, defense makes key stops in 37-20 victory

Dolphins improve to 8-7, remain in contention for AFC Wild Card berth

The Miami Dolphins kept their playoff hopes alive with a convincing 37-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Tua Tagovailoa had his best game of the season, throwing for 298 yards and two touchdowns. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle both had over 100 receiving yards, and Raheem Mostert rushed for two touchdowns.

The Dolphins' defense also played well, holding the Rams to just 20 points. Bradley Chubb had two sacks, and Xavien Howard had an interception. The Dolphins also forced two fumbles, which they converted into 10 points.

The win was a much-needed one for the Dolphins, who had lost two of their previous three games. It also keeps them in contention for an AFC Wild Card berth. The Dolphins are now 8-7, and they are just one game behind the New York Jets for the final Wild Card spot.

Tua Tagovailoa has breakout game

Tua Tagovailoa had his best game of the season against the Rams. He completed 23 of 33 passes for 298 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed for 21 yards.

Tagovailoa was accurate with his passes, and he made several big throws. He also showed good mobility, escaping pressure and scrambling for yards.

Tagovailoa's performance was a sign that he is finally starting to live up to his potential. He was the fifth overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, and he has shown flashes of brilliance at times. However, he has also been inconsistent, and he has struggled with injuries.

If Tagovailoa can continue to play at a high level, the Dolphins will be a dangerous team. They have a lot of offensive weapons, and Tagovailoa is capable of making big plays.

Dolphins' defense makes key stops

The Dolphins' defense played well against the Rams, holding them to just 20 points. The Rams had several chances to score in the second half, but the Dolphins' defense made key stops when they needed them most.

Bradley Chubb had two sacks for the Dolphins, and Xavien Howard had an interception. The Dolphins also forced two fumbles, which they converted into 10 points.

The Dolphins' defense has been playing well all season. They are ranked ninth in the NFL in points allowed, and they have forced 16 turnovers.

The Dolphins' defense will need to continue to play well if they want to make the playoffs. They have a tough schedule remaining, and they will need to win some big games down the stretch.
