Dolphins-Falcons in the Benz had the makings of a get-right Sunday for Atlanta, but Miami swaggered in as more-than-a-touchdown underdogs and turned the script into a highlight reel. Behind a chef’s-kiss day from Tua Tagovailoa (20/26, 205 yards, 4 TD, 0 INT), the Fins flattened the Falcons 34-10, cashing in red-zone trips while ATL kept settling for scraps. And remember, most folks had the Birds circled pregame — top-ranked pass D, home dome, seven-and-a-hook on the line — plus Miami limped in at 1-6 with injuries piling up. Not today. (espn.com)

Miami’s first punch landed late in the first quarter when De’Von Achane slipped out for a short catch-and-score, and the two-minute drill hit different: Malik Washington boxed out for a nine-yard TD with 0:18 left in the half for a 17-3 cushion. Then came the haymaker — mid-third, Jaylen Waddle hit the turbo for a 43-yard dart down the seam, and the Benz got library-quiet. Early fourth, Ollie Gordon II leaked on a wheel for a slick 20-yard TD to make it 31-3, and Riley Patterson tacked on a pair of field goals to keep the scoreboard humming.

Atlanta’s window cracked open briefly after a long PI put them in the red zone, but Bijan Robinson coughed it up at the Miami 19 — a pure momentum theft that Miami immediately turned into clock-chewing control. Kirk Cousins finished a modest 21/31 for 173 with no scores, while Kyle Pitts was busy (9-for-9, 59 yards) but stuck on a diet of underneath throws. The Falcons’ season-long red-zone headaches popped back up on cue, a storyline that’s dogged them all week, while Miami — down pass-catchers like Darren Waller (IR) and even navigating life without Tyreek Hill — found answers with pace, spacing, and YAC. Final tally: Miami outgained ATL 346-218, bullied the ground game 141-45, and never flinched. (espn.com)

Big Dill of the Game: Tua Tagovailoa. Four touchdowns on just 26 attempts, no turnovers, complete command — that’s surgical. Waddle’s 5-99-1 popped, Achane stacked 91 scrimmage yards and a score, and the defense’s red-zone rip flipped the vibe, but Tua set the thermostat from snap one. That’s a wrap from Big Dill Sports — where ballin’ is a big dill.
