God is great. I&#8217;ve been calling my shot since I came in this league,&#8221; Hill said Sunday, via Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN. &#8220;A lot of people doubted me, saying I couldn&#8217;t do this and do that, but it&#8217;s all about believing in yourself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hill&#8217;s 1,014 yards and eight receiving TDs lead the NFL, entering MNF.<\/p>\n<p>The wideout became the first player in NFL history to earn 1,000-plus yards through the first eight games in a single season in the Super Bowl era, per NFL Research.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Tyreek Hill:<\/strong> 1,014 rec. yards, 2023<\/li>\n<li><strong>Torry Holt:<\/strong> 978 rec yards, 2003<\/li>\n<li><strong>Marvin Harrison:<\/strong> 962, 2000<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hill:<\/strong> 961, 2022<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wes Welker:<\/strong> 960, 2011<\/li>\n<li><strong>Isaac Bruce:<\/strong> 960, 2000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>          <span>            Related Links          <\/span>        <\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>              The First Read: Five season-altering wins from Week 8; plus, MVP rankings and Week 9&#x27;s must-see game            <\/li>\n<li>              NFL stats and records, Week 8: Titans QB Will Levis has historic NFL debut; Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill chasing receiving record            <\/li>\n<li>              2023 NFL season, Week 8: What We Learned from Sunday&#x27;s games            <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The only other players to generate 1,000-plus receiving yards in the first eight games of a season all came before 1962: Charley Hennigan (1961), HOF Elroy Hirsch (1951) &amp; HOF Don Hutson (1942).<\/p>\n<p>With a 17-game schedule, Hill is on pace for 2,155 receiving yards in 2023 (Calvin Johnson holds the single-season receiving yards record with 1,964 in 16 games in 2012).<\/p>\n<p>In eight games, Hill has been held under the 100-yard mark three times and went over the 150-yard barrier four times, including a 215-yard output in Week 1. His season-low came in Week 2 against the Patriots, when he had five catches for 40 yards but still scored a TD. He has at least one touchdown in seven of eight games.<\/p>\n<p>Hill has dominated defenses on deep passes. Despite often seeing safeties over the top, opponents still can&#8217;t match the wideout&#8217;s speed. Hill leads the NFL with 12 catches for 470 yards and six TDs on deep targets in 2023 (20-plus air yards), per Next Gen Stats.<\/p>\n<p>Hill will attempt to keep up his otherworldly pace against his former team, Kansas City, next week when the current top two seeds in the AFC face off in Week 9 in Frankfurt, Germany.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m ready, man. It&#8217;s just another game. I&#8217;m just excited to play against my old brothers,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s just like if you&#8217;re in high school and you move to a different city, it&#8217;s still ball. At the end of the day, my job is to go out there and do what I&#8217;ve been doing all year, and that&#8217;s have fun, help lead this team and create opportunities for whoever. I&#8217;m still going to be the same old Cheetah, baby.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/dolphins-wr-tyreek-hill-on-surpassing-1-000-yard-mark-in-eight-games-i-ve-been-c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill is halfway to his goal of 2,000 yards through eight games in 2023.
