The Miami Dolphins (1-0) are heading into Week 2 after coming off an impressive win on the road against the Los Angeles Chargers (36-34).

The Dolphins and Chargers had a back-and-forth contest and featured career performances from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Tagovailoa completed 28-of-45 passing for 466 yards and three touchdowns, leading him to AFC Offensive Player of the Week and FedEx Air Player of the Week honors. While Hill racked up 11 receptions for 215 receiving yards and two touchdowns, winning Week 1 Nickelodeon NVP.

Sunday's game featured nine lead changes and the Dolphins' defense came up big late, forcing the Chargers to turn over the ball on downs courtesy of a split sack between linebacker Jaelan Phillips and cornerback Justin Bethel.
