Speedy Wallace Helps Dolphins Get off to Fast Start
DAVIE, Fla. (AP) – Thanks to the addition of receiver Mike Wallace, the unbeaten Miami Dolphins might have enough offensive punch Sunday to keep up with the Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons.
Wallace served mostly as a decoy in Miami’s first game, opening up other options for quarterback Ryan Tannehill, and then matched his career high with nine catches for 115 yards and a touchdown in last week’s win at Indianapolis.
Wallace, Brian Hartline and tight end Charles Clay each have at least 10 receptions for at least 130 yards, and Miami has showed considerable quick-strike capability, something lacking in recent seasons. At Indy, the Dolphins’ touchdowns came on drives of six, three and six plays.
With a win this week, the Dolphins would be 3-0 for the first time since 2002.
