This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
Miami has won 10 of last 12 meetings and six of last seven in Cincy.
Cincinnati has wins against Cleveland, Washington and Jacksonville and a loss to Baltimore. Looks like they win againsts bad teams and lose to better teams.
Personally I think we are so close to turning the corner and the team seem to believe they are as well. I think we are better than Cle, Was and Jax and pretty close to Baltimore who is not as good this year.
The Bengals lead the league with 17 sacks but look at who they were playing. Dalton has been sacked 12 times. Jeff Faine is not playing very well and I think Solia eats him alive.
We have to shut down AJ but their number 2 guy Andrew Hawkins has 247 yards. 203 of those are yard after catch so we have to wrap this kid up.
Should be another nail biter. Don't know if my nerves can take another one.
Wake and Starks will get pressure for sure. Sean Smith is actually playing very well and I am looking forward to him matching up with Green. Remember that we have faced the very best WR in the first few weeks, Dre, Fitz, and now Green. This could be skewing our pass D ratings since those guys are gonna get their yards no matter what you do. If we can shut down their run and bottle up their secondary passing threats then I think we win. Green will probably get his yards and a TD but hopefully Smith can get another pick since Dalton will target Green a ton.
Special teams are a serious problem here. Let's see what the team is gonna do with Rizzi and Fipp. Those last two loses were solely on bad plays by the ST's.
Pass rusher goes in has clear view of QB but knows he won't get there so he does not even stick his hands up to try to distract the QB so the QB throws the pass. That's elementary. Just sayin'. Fundamentals in coaching lacking. Even College coaches keep reiterating those things. Pro coaches gotta do it too. Every year. Every practice.

He is inactive, most likely he isnt completely healthy, better option to sit and learn the offense another week...

No point in the review. You can't review who recovered the fumble and it was clear that the ball was out before the receiver had even finished his forward progress.
