Tyreek Hill stopped just one yard short of 100 on Sunday night. He would have preferred to have gained more, but what matters most is the scoreline at the end, which is in the Miami Dolphins‘ favor. They had recorded a hard-fought, narrow 22-20 win over the Dallas Cowboys.

The tie was a test of metal on both sides. Even though they boasted a 10-4 record going into the game at Hard Rock Stadium, they had yet to secure a proper victory over a .500 team. Especially Miami, which brushed aside the teams in the bottom half of the competition, but all of their losses have come against playoff-chasing opponents.

More than that, three of those defeats came against teams from the AFC (Chiefs, Bills, and Titans), and the fourth was in the Philadelphia Eagles match. For that reason, analysts like Shannon Sharpe, Colin Cowherd, and Stephen A. Smith weren’t ready to accept the Dolphins as legitimate contenders.

However, beating the Cowboys would have earned the Dolphins some brownie points. At least that’s what Hill believes. He was eagerly waiting to hear how Cowherd and Smith would react.

A lot of people have been saying that we can't beat good teams, and I feel like today we kind of showed that, so we can scratch that out of the box, and now we're just looking for what Stephen A., Shannon Sharpe, and I wonder what Skip Bayless is going to say.

Can Tyreek Hill reach 2000 yards?

Before the season began, the seven-time Pro Bowler had set the goal of eclipsing the 2000-yard barrier. His ultimate goal was to win another Super Bowl, but as a wide receiver, that landmark barrier would have set a massive precedence.

Tyreek Hill leads the NFL in receiving yards with 1641 from 106 catches. He also has 12 touchdowns to his name, trailing only Mike Evans (13) of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

As for reaching 2000 yards, that seems a bit tricky considering there are only 2 games left in the regular season. He would have to gain more than 150 yards on both occasions. But it would be not very reasonable to count Hill out just yet, even though those games are against the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills.

At the bare minimum, he can break the single-season receiving yards record set by Hall of Famer Calvin Johnson. The former Detroit Lions playmaker ended the 2012 season with 1,964 yards. Hill came close last season with 1,710 yards which was still short of Cooper Kupp‘s MVP season of 1,947 yards in 2021.
