The Miami Dolphins decided to take a knee instead of driving for the NFL's all-time record for highest-scoring regular season game.
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel, according to CNN. “Ten times out of 10 you concede and kneel down in those situations. Because there was an attainable record, that was cool, but the message I thought it would send wasn’t in line with how I view things.”
The top record is the 73 points earned by the Chicago Bears in the 1940 NFL Championship. But for a regular season game, the record is 72 points by Washington in 1966. The third record was set in 1950 when the L.A. Rams trounced the Baltimore Colts by 43 points. Starting QB Tua Tagovailoa completed all 17 of his first pass attempts of the game, finishing 23-for-26 for 309 yards and four touchdowns for his win. In addition, running back Raheem Mostert had four total touchdowns, and Devon Achane had 202 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, and one receiving touchdown, including a 67-yard TD run that brought the Dolphins to the 70-point record in the fourth quarter.
