新澳门六合高手论坛 quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been named AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in Sunday's win against New England, the NFL announced Wednesday.
It is Tagovailoa's third overall AFC Offensive Player of the Week award and Miami's first AFC Offensive Player of the Week honor since running back Raheem Mostert earned the accolade in Week 6 of the 2023 season vs. Carolina.
Tagovailoa is one of only three players in the league to earn a Player of the Week award in each of the last three seasons, joining Buffalo's Josh Allen and Tennessee's Nick Folk. Tagovailoa earned the accolade in Week 2 of the 2022 season at Baltimore and in Week 1 of the 2023 season at the L.A. Chargers.
Tagovailoa connected with eight different pass catchers against the Patriots to lead the Dolphins to their third-straight win in one of the best performances of his career. He completed 29-of-40 passes (72.5 pct.) for 317 yards and four touchdowns for a 128.9 passer rating. His 128.9 passer rating and four touchdown throws led the NFL in Week 12, while his 317 passing yards were the most in the AFC. It was also Tagovailoa's fifth consecutive game with a 70.0-plus completion percentage, which is the longest active streak in the NFL and the longest of his career.
Tagovailoa ignited Miami's offense in the second quarter, scoring on all four of the team's possessions. He completed 15-of-21 passes for 183 yards and three touchdowns with a passer rating of 137.5 in the quarter, which marked the second time in his career that Tagovailoa has passed for at least three touchdowns and 175 yards in a single quarter. He then led Miami to a field goal with two seconds remaining in the half to finish with 24 points scored in the quarter, which is tied for the second-most points scored by a team in a quarter this season.
Tagovailoa currently leads the NFL with a 73.3 completion percentage, which is on track to break his career best and top Miami's record books. Meanwhile, his 106.3 passer rating ranks fifth this year. He has completed 170-of-232 passes for 1,760 yards, 13 touchdowns and four interceptions on the season.
