MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Weird things happen in Brocktober.
The Miami Dolphins' season was on the brink of falling apart and just their luck -- they needed their backup quarterback needed to save the day. Brock Osweiler responded with a career-high 380 passing yards in a crazy, back-and-forth 31-28 victory in overtime over the Chicago Bears.
It was one of the most exciting games of the season, with dramatic turns toward both teams. At several points Sunday, Miami looked down and out.
Chicago had the ball on Miami’s 1-yard line twice -- including once midway through the fourth quarter with a chance to go ahead by two touchdowns -- and the Dolphins forced a turnover on both occasions.
