Dan Marino throws for 5 touchdowns vs New England in 1994

September 4th, 1994.

It was the season opener, and fans were excited to see how their future Hall of Fame quarterback would respond after suffering an Achilles injury the year prior. The answer? Exactly what you’d expect from the greatest player to ever wear a Miami Dolphins’ uniform. In typical Marino fashion, the GOAT led the Dolphins back from a late 32-28 deficit.

Marino finished the game 23/42 473 yards, 5 touchdowns and 1 interception. Most importantly, he led the Dolphins to a comeback victory over Drew Bledsoe and the New England Patriots. It was a back and forth contest, that showcased two of the league’s best quarterbacks dueling it out on national television.
