The jury was very much out on Rhamondre Stevenson last week after a poor rushing performance against the Raiders in Week 1. After an offensive performance that saw the New England Patriots score just 13 points and Stevenson gain 15 rushing yards from seven carries, the feeling was understandable.
Against a Miami defensive line that featured a group of proven edge defenders and first-round pick Kenneth Grant on the interior, things didn't seem like they'd improve much.
In contrast to Week 1, Rhamondre looked to be a man possessed, totaling an incredible 142 yards, 88 of which came through the air, a career high.
