Marcus Mariota has started his career well from a fantasy football perspective. He sits 12th among quarterbacks in fantasy points per game so far. He's averaging 2 touchdowns per game and has scored more than 15 fantasy points in three of his four games.

He has also played well from a real football standpoint. His 0.16 Passing Net Expected Points (NEP) per drop back ranks 11th out of the 32 quarterbacks to record at least 100 drop backs on the season.

He's got a great matchup to continue his success this week, as the Miami Dolphins' defense, once expected to be among the best units in the league, ranks dead last in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP on a per-play basis.
