While producing a ****** record in the first half of the ****** season, the Miami Dolphins had their share of memorable plays, mostly on offense but also with some on defense and at least a couple of special teams.With that in mind, let's rank the ****** biggest plays of the first half, based on quality of the play, game significance with bonus points for uniquene s.Let's do this countdown style:This came in the first quarter with the Dolphins trailing ****** San Diego Padres and was a big play in jump-starting the comeback, even if there was a lot of time left. It also was really impre sive how, on third-and ****** from the Miami 41, Hill ran right past a double team after lining up in the slot and then adjusted to the underthrown pa s to beat the two defenders for the catch.Veteran newcomer Thomas Morstead's first nine games with the Dolphins probably will be remembered for the "butt punt," but it's the kick that followed that was huge and an underrated key to Miami hanging on to beat the Bills. Morstead unleashed a ****** yard boomer that forced Buffalo to start its final drive at its ****** when the ****** yard line is often a more typical starting point after a team receives a post-safety kick. It was Wil Myers Jersey an amazingly clutch punt.The Dolphins offense didn't do much in the second half of that victory against the Bills in Week 3, but it produce the game-winning touchdown after the team fell behind ****** . And the play that set up that game-winning touchdown by Chase Edmonds was a ****** yard completion from Tua on third-and ****** from the Miami ****** when he just reared back and fired a perfect pa s downfield to Waddle for the long gain.Defense won the opener against the Patriots and the tone was set on the very first drive after New England appeared ready to take the lead. For some reason, the Patriots decided to test Xavien Howard on a first-and ****** from the Miami ****** by going to DeVante Parker in the right end zone. Howard was all over Parker, tipped the ball in the air and Holland came down with it to end the threat, the first of two Dolphins takeaways in the game and the first of two from this game to make this list.It's been a rough year overall for the special teams so far, but Phillips came up with a huge play with his block against the Bears, where he showed nice body control after getting to punter Trenton Gill so quickly that he would have been easy to overrun him and run into him instead of getting the ball. Phillips got there so quickly because he easily the block attempt by running back Khalil Herbert on the wing when Herbert tried to go low. The block became a huge play in a three-point victory. ****** ****** ****** ****** Ozzie Smith Jersey ****** Scroll to Continue ****** ****** ****** ****** The Dolphins were fortunate to be able to outlast the Steelers in that Sunday night game, doing so thanks to two late interceptions. Igbinoghene's game-clincher gets bonus points here because, while the pick came as the result of a mix-up between QB Kenny Pickett and WR Diontae Johnson, Igbinoghene did a great job of getting both feet down before he fell out of bounds.While it was the defense that led the way in the opener, the offense contributed one of the biggest momentum changers in the final seconds of the first half. Up ****** and facing a fourth-and-7 from the New England ****** with ****** seconds left, head coach Mike McDaniel showed he wasn't afraid to be bold even though going for it always was more logical than punting Chase Headley Jersey or attempting a ****** yard field goal attempt. Tua made the "gamble" pay off by hitting Waddle in stride at the 30, and Waddle split three New England defenders before strolling into the end zone for the touchdown and a ****** halftime lead.There's been a lot of criticism about the Dolphins defense because of the Detroit and Chicago games, so it's easy to forget the difference-making plays that were made earlier in the season. After Holland's pick in the opener, Melvin Ingram scored the team's first touchdown of the season after safety Brandon Jones' sack-strip of Mac Jones.That Baltimore game in Week 2 clearly was the signature game for the Dolphins so far in ****** , and the most dramatic highlight clearly was Tyreek Eric Hosmer Jersey Hill being left wide open down the left sideline behind the Baltimore secondary. The ****** yard touchdown tied the score ****** , paving the way for the Dolphins' ****** victory.Somehow, we just felt the top play had to come from the top game, and we settled on this one for a couple of reasons. The first was the degree of difficulty involved because this might have been Tua's best throw of the season as he threw the ball high in the back of the end zone on third-and ****** where nobody but Gesicki could get it, and Gesicki did the rest by coming down with the ball. While this happened only in the third quarter and it's in the fourth that the Dolphins had their incredible comeback, they pretty much needed touchdowns to close the gap and the ****** yard score by Gesicki cut their deficit to ****** and put them in position for that incredible fourth-quarter comeback.
