The Dline had a dominating performance the entire game except the last drive so that helped...

But how about the job these 2 did against the seahawks?


Makes you forget about the 2 scrubs we had starting last year.


The rookie howard is going to be something else.

___________________________________________________________________


Overall im not down so much about the loss.


Going into the game everybody was saying how the seahawks had one of the best teams in the nfl. They were supposed to be in the superbowl this year.

The Oline and the LBs and cbs worried me to start the year but guess what, they had a great game yesterday. Brandon albert gave up some sacks he was the weak link of the Oline yesterday....Not worried going forward about that.


The rookie center is going to be a good one.....He made 2 mistakes that i saw but overall and in such noise he did very well.


About the mistake by wake, it happens......Good that it happens now than in the playoffs right?

Im suddenly positive about tannehill the only knock on him and i know he doesnt want to throw incompletions.....but he needs to have a clock in his head.......Let it go and throw and incomplete pass instead of getting sacked for a 9 yard loss......Throw out of bounce get out of the pocket........He also changed some plays in the LOS and it worked........Keep doing that.....

I hope mario williams is ok......He is a huge part of this defense....

Jordan phillips ankle should be fine.....He did very well for those who critisize him....

Can anyone block suh one on one?

Alonzo did very good most of the game......I think he got beat on that 4th down in the 4th quarter........


Isa Abdul-Quddus had that nice int...


Matt Darr had a average of 46 yards punting.....Very good.


Arian Foster monster receiver.....Not so good running the football........except that one fake run to get a first down...


Overall there is a lot of room for improvement.

We have the players....


Now its up to the coaches to make right calls....


Most of all its all about coaching. Im most down on coaching than anything else....

A player is going to drop a pass......a player is going to allow a sack a qb is going to throw a pick...........Its all part of football....

But when coaches make mental mistakes like that timeout on 4th down......There is no excuse for that. It was philbin revisited.


______________________________________________________________


We will see how we play next week against the pats.

There can be a tie for first place in the AFC East you know.

GO PHINS.

Coaching is a lot like a boxer "bobbing and weaving." Sometimes the boxer weaves when he should be bobbing...that's what happened to the Dolphins yesterday. That's the only explanation I can come up with on that "Timeout" ...which was an absurd call at that moment in the game.

Losing 12-10. Wish we had won 10-6, but We couldn't derail them on that Seattle winning drive.

I was unhappy about the try on 4th down in the 1st quarter rather than kicking a FG. I didn't think our team was ready for it against a team like Seattle. Want to work on 4th and inches? Do it against Cleveland...not Seattle. That one FG could have been the difference in the entire game, based on the way our defense played.

Thats would had been the difference...


You take the points all the time in that situation.

Actually, a quickly run QB sneak is what should have been called.
Hurry up to the line, before the D gets set, and snap it on first sound.
A strong push forward, with a running back providing an extra shove, would have gotten the first down. Easy-peasy.

A FG there would have felt like the Sparano/Philbin era all over again.

Im OK with going for it. But the play call was horrendous!

We don't know what was called. Whatever was called Tannehill audibled out of it. As I recall Tannehill was motioning with his arms before taking the snap. He may have audibled out of a QB sneak.

Can't agree with you, Monti.

Can't make an inch or two? Gase showed a lot of confidence in his OL that they would get just enough push. Didn't happen. Foster played OK yesterday. One good play for the whole game. Could Ajayi have made that first down? We'll never know.

Sure, that one FG could have been the difference....if everything fell exactly into place as it did. Make that FG and maybe Seattle does things a little differently than they did with Miami not making it.

Stills catches the damn ball (that some here say RT can't throw) and Seattle probably plays a whole different game.

I always believe in the cause-and-effect.
