Could the Dolphins offense be the best ever?

This offense is explosive, fun to watch, and only getting better. The Dolphins are averaging 43.3 PPG, on pace for 737 points on the season, that would break the all-time NFL scoring record, that record was set by Peyton Manning and the 2013 Denver Broncos at 37.9 PPG. The Dolphins are practically a full TD per game ahead of them. They got the running game popping and the passing game, Tua is getting the ball out very quickly and his offensive line is protecting him, only one sack on the season, Jaylen Waddle didn't even suit up yesterday, one of their fastest receivers. This offense is scary good.

    I'm still in shock over yesterday's beatdown, the greatest offensive display I've ever seen, on the ground, through the air, they were unstoppable, Broncos fans were demoralized.

    It's amazing how well they fired off on all cylinders yesterday, and without Waddle like you said.

    One great game is what it is, but they have the pieces to be a consistent force to be reckoned with.

    Big test against the Bills this Sunday

    Dolphins 34
    Bills 23

    If Bill Belichick isn’t coaching it, then the answer is obviously no.

    I've never seen anything like it, they couldn't even run the game clock down without accidentally scoring, the players were having the time of their lives, dancing it up.

    I think as the NFL slowly morphs into the FFL, or flag football league, you will see more of this.
    The days of brutal hitting are over.

    I was not even alive the last time an NFL team put up 70 points. Amazing game. I dont know if they will be the greatest offense of all time, but they are on the right track.

    Tua will have to prove to me that he can play a full season without injury. I feel like he is one big hit to the head away from permanent retirement.

    I wish I could have been there to watch it in person, a team putting up 70 points, it was a party at the Miami game yesterday, they were dancing, taking selfies on the sidelines, heck I heard Mike McDaniel even brought in some strippers!

    Way to early to tell. Next week will be a good test against buffalo. The broncos gave up and mostert was running wild on them along with the passing game.

    Being a Denver Broncos fan I watched part of the first half of yesterday's game and turned off the TV.

    I did not want to watch anymore of the game and waste a gorgeous fall day by spending it getting into a foul mood. I am glad I turned off the TV

    It looks like Denver is going nowhere fast this year :(

    Where are my fellow Patriots fans to say ...

    In 2009 the Patriots beat the Titans 59-0. They didn't score in the 4th quarter, and Brady was taken out of the game, if I remember correctly, after his first drive in the 3rd. Here's some highlights.

    We are only into the third game of the season. “Greatest ever” seems a bit premature.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    It's actually alarming that a team would literally just give up.like that, I remember years ago the Cardinals came to Gillette to play my Pats and it was snowing a bunch and freezing out, the Cardinals players straight up just didn't want any part of it and just lsyed down.

    To let yourself get beat like that is a legit lack of self respect

    We'll see how good the Dolphins offense really is next week against the Bills, looking forward to that game. The Bills offense has been rolling the last two weeks as well, I hope we get a shootout!

    Eh, they averaged 30 points the first two games and scored just 24 against New England. Right now, this is akin to asking if somebody will break the home run record because they hit 3 homers the first week.

    After thinking about it, I actually agree, the 70 point game really sent people into a frenzy, if they had scored 31 yesterday we wouldn't even be talking about it.

    A lot of people defend him, particularly Chiefs fans.

    But it looks like he never really learned. https://youtu.be/l8g6-PhfUCw?si=zLqH-qvn2xmphJGQ

    Let's not forget Chiefs LB Jovan Belcher murdering his GF before killing himself back in 2012.

    If memory serves that happened in the chiefs parking lot and Romeo Cranell was head coach. I think he was there when it happened. The suicide I mean.

    My point is pats fans shouldn’t really be commenting on personal conduct by players on other teams.
    My understanding is Hernandez dropped way down in the draft until bb picked him in the fourth round
    and he dropped because of personal conduct problems at Florida. So billy boy kind of overlooked the warning signs.

    Even the Dolphins second string were scoring.
    They showed mercy on the Broncos and didn't set a new all time high score record.

    Llamas and alpacas are camels. They aren't like camels, or related. They are camels. When was anyone going to tell me this?! How long had Bill Nye been holding out on us?

    Yep He dropped down because he was a problem with his behavior

    Murder is still murder though when he killed his GF before that.

    Point taken but we could go dig up some real current/former scumbags on each and every team. Its not just a Pats thing. I think that's the point that Show was trying to make here.

    Also Belichick had zero clue on how disturbed Aaron Hernandez really was going into that draft. Once it became known how much of a monster the guy really was the team dropped him immediately even though they owed him like 40M.
