The season has demonstrated some remarkable passing offenses, led by standout quarterbacks. These players are crucial in determining a team’s overall success, but even more when assessing the passing game exclusively. Surprisingly, some of these high-performing offenses don’t necessarily have widely recognized star quarterbacks.

Leading the pack are the Miami Dolphins, who have emerged as the undisputed leaders in the passing game. They command the league in total offense, averaging an impressive 462.3 yards per game. This season, they have exploded with a healthy Tua Tagovailoa leading the way and utilizing speedy wide receivers.

The Dolphins currently stand atop the passing charts, averaging 300 passing yards per game, making them the only team to reach this milestone after seven matchups. Their most impressive performance came in week 1 against the Chargers, where they passed for an astonishing 466 yards.
