Miami Dolphins rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa outdueled Arizona Cardinals second-year quarterback Kyler Murray to get his second-straight win.
Tagovailoa is the first Dolphins QB to win his first two career starts in 11 years. He completed 20-28 passes for 248 yards and threw for two touchdowns to lead Miami to a 34-31 come-from-behind victory.
The Dolphins were down by a touchdown, but ended up scoring 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter. Tagovailoa tied the game up at 31 with 11 minutes to play with a touchdown pass to receiver Mack Hollins. It was then up to kicker Jason Sanders booted a 50-yard field goal with 3:30 left in regulation to give the Dolphins the three-point victory.
Despite the loss, Murray was brilliant for Arizona, completing 21 of 26 passes for 283 yards and three touchdowns. He also rushed for a touchdown and had a career-high 106 yards rushing.
Murray now has seven games this season in which he tallied both a passing and running touchdown.
The Dolphins have now won four games in a row and will look to continue their winning streak next week against the Los Angeles Chargers, who have dropped their last two.
