Jets v. Dolphins: Game Day Thread

Here it is folks, week 18 and we face the Jets in a do or die situation to make the playoffs.

Thompson has been preparing all week and hopefully that will be enough to mount a scoring drive or two to outpoint the Jets with veteran QB Joe Flacco running the Jets offense. I've always liked Joe and think he is still formidable. It will be interesting to see how Joe fares against our pressure. He can still throw the long pass so he may try to take advantage of our below par secondary.

We need to run more and use Gesicki more too. The Jets will try and bump Waddle and Hill off their stride so it's up to them to get free and up to Thompson to hit them when they are open and not try to squeak it in between tight coverage. Thumbs up.

Go Dolphins.

Haha. Awesome. I’ll have to look that up. I’m picturing Tony Sparano is up in heaven right now saying “see? Field goals are to be celebrated!”

So this is the second phins game I can recall where the final play was the dolphins scoring a safety. The other was the Cincy game a few years back when we actually won the game as the result of a safety at the end—that was on a Halloween.

I also seem to recall a game (hey old timers—help me out here!) where we TOOK a safety at the end of the game. Meaning we gave up the two points to run out the clock, as we had a lead of more than two points but less than six, with a few seconds remaining. And now we arrive at the reason why they call it a Safety (I suppose). It was fourth down deep in our own territory. We needed to punt from our own end zone. If the opponent blocks the punt and recovers in the EZ, they win. Instead, our punter takes the snap and runs towards the sideline within the end zone, getting pushed out of bounds just as the clock runs out. It was the mid to late 1970s and I believe the punter was Larry Seiple. DOES ANYBODY OUT THERE REMEMBER THIS GAME ???

By the way, I was as frustrated as anyone with our offense today, but since we won the game I realized there were a few positives.


We actually ran the ball a little bit. Although Mostert ended up getting injured which sucked.
Skylar may have not lit things up but he DID NOT THROW AN INTERCEPTION. That turned out to be huge.
No lost fumbles I don’t think? The snap that whizzed past Skylar almost was tragic but he at least hustled back to fall on it.

If TUA / Armstead is playing, We have already beat them once and just about beat them until the weather went south.

The Bills have our attention.

If Teddy plays see ya next season fellas it's been an interesting season.

I don't know who will be our QB next season. But Oline needs to addressed if we are to be successful and build on making the playoffs this season. Basically every player except for Armstead and Little are 2nd string depth.

We need to find a QB like San Frans Purdy . That's kids going places. He's the next big thing.

GO DOLPHINS!!!!

I'm thinking you may have meant Armstead and Williams are the keeper starter material. I'd add Robert Hunt. He's no Armstead by any means, but he grades out well this season in a decent jump from his grades for his first 2 seasons. Ever since his crazy illegal reception vs. the Ravens last year, I've been secretly hoping they'd draw up a play for him this year :-)

I'd absolutely love it if they could upgrade LG and RT. That was supposed to be Jackson & Eichenberg as high picks on OL for those positions. Jackson has been bad, but I think I recall him playing a bit better when at LG between Armstead and Williams. Eichenberg is abysmal even with the advantage of having a couple good OL surrounding him.
