The Miami Dolphins have not been the most dominant team this year, but neither have they been a push-over for opponents. The team has been fairly solid for most of the season, and their 8-6 record reflects that. While the Dolphins are pursuing the playoffs, there are several players closing in on personal or team milestones. This morning, we take a look at the offense.
Ryan Tannehill
- Tannehill has thrown for 3,627 yards this year, meaning he needs to average 186.5 yards per game over the last two weeks of the season to break 4,000 yards, a club currently only populated by Dan Marino. Tannehill's 3,627 yards ranks 12th all time on the Dolphins' single season passing yardage list. Marino holds the 10th spot (1995), with 3,668 yards (41 yards ahead of Tannehill), as well as the fifth position (1985) with 4,137 yards (510 yards ahead of Tannehill).
- Tannehill has completed 325 passes this season, seventh most in team history. With 11 completions, Tannehill will tie Marino's 1985 season with 336 completions. He's 60 completions shy of Marino's 1994 record of 385.
- Tannehill has attempted 521 passes, the 12th highest single season mark. He is 15 shy of 10th place (Marino, 1998 - 537 attempts) and 43 short of fifth place (Marino, 1984 - 564 attempts).
- Tannehill has a 62.4% completion rate this year. He is just behind Marino's 1994 62.6% rate for the fifth best percentage in single season team history. The 2008 season from Chad Pennington holds the record at 67.4%.
- Tannehill has been sacked 51 times, the most in an year for any single quarterback in team history.
- Tannehill has 219 rushing yards. He trails Jay Fiedler's all time single season record for quarterback rushing by 102 yards (321 in 2001).
Lamar Miller

- Miller needs 372 yards (186 yards per game) to reach 1,000 rushing yards for the season.

- Hartline has 925 receiving yards, the 22nd highest single season total in team history. Mark Clayton is in tenth place with 1,011 yards in 1991, while Hartline is 10th with his 1,083 yards last season. Brandon Marshall's 2011 season ranks fifth with 1,214 yards; Hartline would have to average 144.5 yards per game to break the top five.
