QB Ryan Tannehill ignites Dolphins with four early touchdown passes

DAVIE, Fla. – Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is a fantasy football owner's dream on Sunday.

Tannehill has four touchdown passes early in the second quarter as the Dolphins lead the Houston Texans, 35-0. Three of Tannehill's touchdown throws are for 50 yards or more. He had a 50-yard touchdown throw to receiver Jarvis Landry, a 53-yard touchdown throw to receiver Rishard Matthews and a 54-yard touchdown screen to running back Lamar Miller.

Two weeks ago the Dolphins were the worst first-quarter team in the NFL. They were outscored 37-3 in the first quarters of the first four games.
