Hill, Tagovailoa too much for Chargers as Dolphins open with 36-34 victory

Associated Press  

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Tua Tagovailoa might have shocked some observers by putting up one of the best passing days in an opener in NFL history. That’s kind of what I expected to happen,” coach Mike McDaniel said after the Miami Dolphins rallied for a 36-34 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. In last season’s 23-17 win in Week 13, the Chargers held the Dolphins to 219 total yards, with 119 coming on two plays, and didn’t allow Miami to get into the red zone. “I feel like it’s a rare occasion when you’ve got two guys like that on the field at the same time, blazing up and down the field,” Mack said. “We’ve just got to look at it and get better, make sure we get better on the back end and the front end.” Miami had nine plays of at least 21 yards.
