Tyreek Hill, the team’s star wide receiver, is missing due to an ankle injury, but the Miami Dolphins offense is playing explosively against the New York Jets.
The Dolphins led 17-0 with 7:42 left in the second quarter after Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa found third-year wide out Jaylen Waddle with a deep pass that resulted in a 60-yard touchdown.
For Miami, Hill’s injury is a severe blow. He leads the league going into Week 15 in receiving yards (1,542), receiving touchdowns (12), and receptions (97).
Nevertheless, offensive wizard Mike McDaniel is the head coach of the Dolphins, and Waddle is just one of several other difference-makers who can step up. The former first-round pick has 63 receptions for 822 yards and three touchdowns through 12 games.
Because of its wealth of offensive playmakers, Miami (9-4) has a good chance to go deep into the postseason and win the AFC East for the first time since 2008. The Dolphins are currently ranked fifth in the Super Bowl with oddschecker (+850) as of Sunday.
