Although I started watching late at 9:07 Eastern time.

Even when Tanny handed off early, it was clear he had he was a threat to pull it out of the back's belly.

There were several drop back passes of course.

Whipped a pretty good team BADLY.

Yes we did! Stadium was electric! Bills fans didn't know what hit them....

GO DOLPHINS!!!!

The one good run RT had could have been a TD but he slid. He said he wishes he would have kept running. Me too.

Not needed. I would rather have a healthy QB than another RGIII.

He wouldn't have gotten hurt. No one was around. Besides, he's a tough SOB.

At first glance I thought Tannehill should have continued forward, but after re-watching the play I think he did the right thing. Robey was just a few steps away from hitting him from behind and possibly forcing another fumble...or causing injury to Tannehill.

Nice juke to even get the 1st on that run.

That was our most complete offensive game yet IMO. Even better than the SanDeigo game. Sacks are gonna happen against a DLine like that. Clean up the things that were in our control (the two turnovers and a couple of red zone penalties) and we would have laid over 30 pts on a defense with some pretty good teeth.

will be interesting to see if Treasuer thinks he is a puss for sliding, in the past all other QBs have been if they slid.

It was a very nice run, woulda like to have seen him run to see if he could get in.

I would say the Chargers game was way better, many points left on the field in this game. However, to play that well against that D was impresssive.

and there it is!

I saw a slant pattern too!!! I was thrilled.

slant for first down, imagine that.

Right, and since Tannehill throws those slants well it would be interesting to see Lazor get rid of the 9-routes that Wallace has been running and instead call some skinny posts. Maybe Tannehill would be more comfortable with that route instead. They've got to be able to attack the deep third of the field. It was there for the taking all night.

it would really open things up for the offense.

It would be nice but won't happen. This coaching staff is stubborn. Mr Philben himself.

Stubborn how? Playing to their QB's strengths?

This staff has the offense clicking even though they can't utilize the entire field.

How many slants do we see in a game? Not as much as we should. The offense is not clicking. It does zero good to move the ball all the way down the field just to fumble/gumble it all a way.

Ive been calling for slants for years. Not sure why they dont use them. It is such an easy route and can be broken for a long one.

Especially with Wallace. Tanner ill can hit him in stride with a 20 yard cut into the slant pass that can break it to the house. We never seen it but it would work because Tannehill excels at that type of pass.

it would be brilliant.

and even Matthews because he is so strong he could get the seperation at line of scrimmage if needed.

True. Even Landry. Heck Hartline made a huge gain running a short slant. I mean come on Lazor!!

the Hartline play was huge.... he showed his speed off, certainly need more calls like that.

I do think Lazer is figuring it out.

We hope he is.

Nah , but its nice to see you admit in your own way that Tannehill is the QB of the future and you were completely 100% wrong about him.

Whats that!!? )))))Beep Beep((((( Its Dolphins back up lights!

GO DOLPHINS!!!!
