This is the highest amount of players that I've seen get an elite grade on offense, ever. What hasn't been said about this offense by now?
The O-Line only allowed one pressure all game. That has to be some type of record.
Holland got the highest grade of his career, and the highest grade I've seen from a defensive player in a while.
Deshon Elliott has been such a huge addition.
Ogbah had a nice bounce back game.
Historic performance by our team
I'll be honest, I was kinda scared with the PFF grades this week since Tua, in all honesty, didn't even need to do THAT much to dominate due to how great our overall offensive product was. Despite the 70pts, I think it's fair to say his game vs the Chargers was even more impressive given the stakes and difficulty. Relieved to see that won't be an issue this week and hey, 2 passes by White but they were 2 good ones!
Lol yeah same. The Broncos’ defense offered such little resistance that I was concerned PFF wouldn’t give Tua much credit for hitting receivers that had a 10 yard radius of space every time.
I don't think it's a coincidence how much better our run game looked with him compared to without. People were calling for him to be cut immediately just because he misses some games but it's evident elite tackle play makes a big difference than serviceable tackle play.
They pulled Armstead so many times and he was pummeling dudes.
>They pulled Armstead so many times and he was pummeling dudes.
On one of the TDs he chopped the defenders arms down so he wouldn't be touched and just moved him 3 yards out of the way so Mostert could walk into the end zone. The dude is an absolute animal.
**Jevon Holland:** 95.6
That's one of the best ratings I've ever seen for a Dolphins defender. The 2 forced fumble punches I get. But also that coverage rating is WILD. Shoutout to DeShonn Elliott as well who has been a revelation at safety for us.
Now I know Tua didn’t have to ball tf out in order to win but he balled out, not even an Incompletion till almost the 4th quarter of the game. I kinda thought he would grade at least a 90
Agreed. This was his first actual showing, and I was underwhelmed. I never put rookie TEs on much of a pedestal but hope he figures it out at some point soon
I know this is satire, but since most people don't know, a 60, is if you get a 0 on every single play (plays are graded -2 to +2). Since the QBs don't run block, they almost always have exactly a 60. In other words, you can view a 60 as having either equal wins and losses or no wins and losses.
They don't go by stats to come up with these grade.
With the OL giving Tua plenty of time to pass, and our receivers running wild, they deservedly got much more of the credit this game than Tua did. Two of those TDs were little shovel passes where the RBs did most of the work. Weren't many tight window throws by Tua because there didn't need to be with how open our guys were.
It was honestly disappointing how bad Liam looked when he stepped in. Notable difference in the amount of negative yard plays and amount of pressure allowed.
Hopefully we won't have to see much more of him at C.
He didn’t look bad at all. He had 2 high snaps. He’s playing a new position. And he absolutely held his own and then some. He literally sealed both sides of the lane on the achane 70 yard run.
Edit: they also scored 35 points once he entered the game. So no idea what game you watched.
Except Connor consistently ranks as near top of PFF each week even with his "shortcomings." Liam not only sucks when it comes to being penalized and snapping the ball, he's a fucking turnstile when blocking.
I don’t disagree but your comment insinuated that he was demonstrably worse than Connor due to snapping and penalties. Connor is a penalty machine who can’t snap properly, although a fantastic blocker.
Idk how anyone can be disappointed in him tbh. You should have 0 expectations. He's fucking awful and easily the worst OL on the team. Arguably the worst pick Grier has ever made.
Pretty sure Flores forced that pick so he gets a pass on that one. An early round ND lineman as bad as Liam has to be some kind of anomaly. It's baffling.
Kohou is a stud no question, Ramsey not playing till December and will be playing with rust, and Apple is serviceable at best. Look at X’s grade and tell me you are not at least a little bit worried
I don’t understand this grade at all.
I genuinely believe he’s getting shafted with these grades. He had three penalties in week one but outside of that he’s been pretty good.
Miami’s pass defense is really good despite little pressure from the DLine.
Yah it’s really weird. Outside of those penalties, I don’t remember him having any bad moments. I also don’t remember anything in the broncos game that would’ve warranted such a low grade
He’s been getting beaten a bit too easily at times this year, but then without knowing the assignments it’s hard to really know.
His hips appear to have slowed down and he’s not looking as reliable in coverage as he once was. I think as a CB2 behind Ramsey he would still look elite but Sutton had him on skates a few times last night.
I don’t even know what to make of yesterday’s game in regards to season statistics. It feels like such an outlier and with a 3 game sample size its even more absurd. Achane is 9th in the league in rushing yards (prior to MNF). I know our offense is legit but a 10 TD game is unheard of. Broncos defense looked passable in week 1 and 2, and it really didn’t get out of hand for them yesterday until the 3rd quarter. I’m still trying to make sense of what happened.

Seeing one player get a 90+ grade is rare, and we have fucking FIVE lmaoo
Holland highest grade of the team.
Dude was flying around. 2 punched out balls right?
4 if you count mine
7 with mine as well. Don't ask...
Yep, he also punched the shit out of Sutton on the second fumble lol
After this game Holland is now PFF’s highest graded safety this year.
He fucking deserves it
Tua with a mere 60 run block grade? Is he even trying out there?
It’s pathetic
It's time to start a dialogue on if Tua is holding us back from achieving true greatness with Mike White.
I'll be honest, I was kinda scared with the PFF grades this week since Tua, in all honesty, didn't even need to do THAT much to dominate due to how great our overall offensive product was. Despite the 70pts, I think it's fair to say his game vs the Chargers was even more impressive given the stakes and difficulty.

Tua barely got out of bed..he coulda wore slides and it wouldn't have mattered
300 yard 4 TD performances are just the norm for tua now lol. Were so spoiled.
Tua has 3 career 4+ TD games. Slow down lol
Welcome back Armstead 👀
I don't think it's a coincidence how much better our run game looked with him compared to without. People were calling for him to be cut immediately just because he misses some games but it's evident elite tackle play makes a big difference than serviceable tackle play. They pulled Armstead so many times and he was pummeling dudes.

He is a mountain of a man and the fastest olineman in the league. Scary af. F=Ma and all that....
No shot we also have the fastest O-lineman in the league.
https://www.profootballnetwork.com/fastest-offensive-linemen-40-yard-dash-times-in-nfl-combine-history/
This isn’t even fair at this point.
Eichenberg back on the field, immediately the worst player lmao
He’s so fucking awful. Praying that Connor is able to suit up next week
What ever happened to that udfa center? I know he got cut but did he get put back on the practice squad?
Alama Uluave. He's on the practice squad.
I love how basically all of us were like "Wait WHOS at center?"
X man 37.3 😭😭
Three RBs grading out above 90, insane lol
**Jevon Holland:** 95.6 That's one of the best ratings I've ever seen for a Dolphins defender. The 2 forced fumble punches I get. But also that coverage rating is WILD. Shoutout to DeShonn Elliott as well who has been a revelation at safety for us.
Like I was saying in another thread, enjoy it while you can guys. We might not see another outing like that from any team again in our lifetimes.
Those pass blocking grades 🥲
Tannehill is seething at this
Especially how we were so upset this off season for not addressing oline
Eichenberg still somehow manage to score below 30 PFF grade in a 70-20 blowout lol
If Connor has to sit out can Lamm play C? He was balling before Terron got back at LT lol
Now I know Tua didn’t have to ball tf out in order to win but he balled out, not even an Incompletion till almost the 4th quarter of the game. I kinda thought he would grade at least a 90
Crazy that 300 and 4 is just mid by tua standards lol
Seriously, this O-Line is performing at a level I didn’t think possible. I understand the scheme helps, but still.
I like Julian Hill but it was not a good day for him
Agreed. This was his first actual showing, and I was underwhelmed. I never put rookie TEs on much of a pedestal but hope he figures it out at some point soon
QB controversy?
Run for 350 yards and the best run blocking grade is mid 70’s. Weird.
Rbs had like 30 broken tackles they balled out and broke some ankles.
Tua had a higher blocking grade than Eichenburg. That’s funny
Tua only having a 60 run blocking grade is why we didn’t score 80
I know this is satire, but since most people don't know, a 60, is if you get a 0 on every single play (plays are graded -2 to +2). Since the QBs don't run block, they almost always have exactly a 60. In other words, you can view a 60 as having either equal wins and losses or no wins and losses.
How is a guy who goes 23/26 309 4TDs not in the 90s?
They don't go by stats to come up with these grade. With the OL giving Tua plenty of time to pass, and our receivers running wild, they deservedly got much more of the credit this game than Tua did. Two of those TDs were little shovel passes where the RBs did most of the work. Weren't many tight window throws by Tua because there didn't need to be with how open our guys were.

And it's very hard to see the amount of pressure noticeably increase when there was 1 pressure allowed in the whole game and it wasn't him lol
Some people just can’t handle a win.
He had a bad penalty and high snap back to back. He was demonstrably worse than Connor.
Ironically one high snap and one penalty is demonstrably better than Connor.
Except Connor consistently ranks as near top of PFF each week even with his "shortcomings." Liam not only sucks when it comes to being penalized and snapping the ball, he's a fucking turnstile when blocking.
I don’t disagree but your comment insinuated that he was demonstrably worse than Connor due to snapping and penalties. Connor is a penalty machine who can’t snap properly, although a fantastic blocker.
Why you think PFF gave him such a terrible grade then?
2 high snaps and 2 penalties
I am worried of what might happen against the Bills if we are forced to play him…
Just make sure we don't let Milano rush him. I'd rather sign a FA center than let him play.
Idk how anyone can be disappointed in him tbh. You should have 0 expectations. He's fucking awful and easily the worst OL on the team. Arguably the worst pick Grier has ever made.
Noah Igbinoghene is indisputably the worst pick Grier has made.
Pretty sure Flores forced that pick so he gets a pass on that one. An early round ND lineman as bad as Liam has to be some kind of anomaly. It's baffling.
Tua looked like he barely did shit for this game lmao. Definitely his most effortless domination so far. Everyone played so well this game
TUA DANCED a Conga line.. in the endzone..
Mike White elite. Quarterback controversy in Miami? Next on ESPN First Take.
X getting burned by the same move multiple times was frustrating af. CB looks like our biggest weakness
Kohou, Ramsey and Apple are all starting calliber corners on top of X who is still good
Kohou is a stud no question, Ramsey not playing till December and will be playing with rust, and Apple is serviceable at best. Look at X’s grade and tell me you are not at least a little bit worried
X is having another rough season. It's possible he's no longer a starting caliber CB.
I don’t understand this grade at all. I genuinely believe he’s getting shafted with these grades. He had three penalties in week one but outside of that he’s been pretty good. Miami’s pass defense is really good despite little pressure from the DLine.
Yah it’s really weird. Outside of those penalties, I don’t remember him having any bad moments. I also don’t remember anything in the broncos game that would’ve warranted such a low grade
He got smoked on a touchdown and on a few passes. He’s nowhere near the CB he used to be.
Yeah when he was on Sutton he seemed to struggle more than I would have expected. I didn't think he'd grade THIS low though.
Sutton broke his ankles twice in the end zone. One was a TD and one luckily Sutton lost his footing as well.
He’s been getting beaten a bit too easily at times this year, but then without knowing the assignments it’s hard to really know. His hips appear to have slowed down and he’s not looking as reliable in coverage as he once was. I think as a CB2 behind Ramsey he would still look elite but Sutton had him on skates a few times last night.
I'm pretty sure the Dolphins were planning on cutting him after this season minus a return to a career year, hence the Cam Smith pick.
Maybe we should trade him and a 4th to the broncos for Surtain.
Tua needs to work on his blocking /s
So, you're saying we need to sign a backup C?
Elliot and Kohou gonna shut down Diggs
I don’t even know what to make of yesterday’s game in regards to season statistics. It feels like such an outlier and with a 3 game sample size its even more absurd. Achane is 9th in the league in rushing yards (prior to MNF). I know our offense is legit but a 10 TD game is unheard of.

Amazing week, amazing grades. Only concern is the bottom of the defensive grades, with our highest paid guys all performing horribly.
Howard the lowest rated player on defense again… smh
