Heading into the 2023 NFL season, the AFC is brimming with talent, and Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is optimistic about his team’s chances. After making the playoffs for the first time since 2016, the Dolphins have high expectations for the upcoming season, especially after acquiring six-time Pro Bowler Jalen Ramsey to bolster their defense. “I think we’re definitely legit contenders,” Tagovailoa confidently stated to The Palm Beach Post.
Tagovailoa recognizes the talent on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball and believes that with more time together as an offense, they can become a truly formidable force. Despite missing five starts last season due to multiple head injuries, Tagovailoa had his most successful year as a professional, throwing for 3,548 yards, 25 touchdowns, and only eight interceptions.
The Dolphins’ success in 2023 will depend heavily on Tagovailoa’s health, as well as the team’s overall well-being. Wide receiver Tyreek Hill, who had an outstanding season in 2022, emphasized the importance of staying healthy and practicing sound fundamentals to have a more consistent year. The Dolphins are aware that the AFC, particularly the AFC East, has become more competitive with the addition of quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Justin Herbert, and Lamar Jackson.
Despite the increased competition, Miami remains one of the top teams in the AFC. However, they currently have the sixth-best odds to win the Super Bowl in the conference, according to Bet MGM. It will be an exciting and challenging season for the Dolphins as they strive to achieve their goals.
