There were lopsided and low-scoring events that permeated the NFL in Week 1 on Sunday, September 10, 2023.
One of the most interesting games was between the Miami Dolphins and the Los Angeles Chargers.
For the Miami Dolphins, Tua Tagovailoa’s concussion and injury history in 2022 are well-documented.
However, his performance on Sunday seemingly indicates it is past history.
Some thoughts on @Tua , @cheetah and the @MiamiDolphins … WOW. pic.twitter.com/iiR5VKzdsQ

Here are some of the positives for the Dolphins from their Week 1 game and specifically from Tua’s performance.

1. Tua Was Not Sacked
For Tua’s sake and for the fate of the 2023 Dolphins, he needs to be protected.
Last season’s issues came from him getting hit too much.
Against the Chargers, he was not sacked one time.
Thought y’all needed a different perspective of Tua climbing the pocket pic.twitter.com/bDmgOTd1rd

2. Tua Rushed For 5 Yards
How is this a positive when Tua is a mobile quarterback?
We know Tua can run, but he did not have to against the Chargers.
He had 5 carries for 5 yards.
Tua was not running because his receivers were open, and he had time to throw.
3. Tua Threw For 466 Yards
Safe to say Tua’s performance yesterday was an all-time great 😏 pic.twitter.com/UZHfBtxL9b

As the Kansas City Chiefs well know, having Tyreek Hill on the roster is comparable to having a wide receiver with running back speed.
Hill was targeted 15 times and caught 11 balls for 215 yards and 2 touchdowns.
.@MichaelIrvin88: Tua & Tyreek are the most dangerous QB-WR duo in the NFL

Tua’s revenge tour is underway.
Tua Tagovailoa is coming for everything he’s owed this year. Still thinking about this throw yesterday to lead 4th Q comeback over Chargers: pic.twitter.com/cZOnTEdaXC

With all of the offseason chatter about the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets, it will be fun to watch this Miami Dolphins team as the season wears on.
They are on the road again in Week 2 facing the New England Patriots whose defense did a good job on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1.
This should be an intriguing matchup.
