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.
Tonight, under the lights on Sunday Night Football is the biggest and most important game of the day. Will it be Josh Allen or our QB Tua celebrating victory at the end of the night? I know that I can speak for all of us that it would be fantastic for Tua to be on stage and excelling for a victory.
The Dolphins need to come out smoking hot, put points on the board and then keep Josh Allen and his running backs from matching our points. We can only hope this happens.
Once again tonight is a major opportunity for the Dolphins to show what they got and change up their previous miss-steps on the national TV stage. The Dolphins have something to prove. PROVE IT!
Let's go Dolphins! Victory is a must. No exceptions.

I hear the same. But for the most part broadcasters are afraid to root for Miami. As soon as we start building steam and changing opinions......we take a giant shit on the carpet.
At the beginning of free agency I couldn't believe we scored Ramsey. Then he got hurt. Since returning he's been phenomenal. Even telling coaches how to tighten up coverages .
Look for him to have a great night if whoever is covering for Howard just plays half decent.
Ramsey has to be outstanding. Van Ginkle needs to get after Allen along with Ogbah,
Wilkins and Sieler all need to be on thier " A" game.

My thoughts exactly.Third and long, at least he didn't get sacked or throw a short interception. Like a decent punt to the 15 yard line. Could have been worse.
What was dumb was running the same play to Achane two times in a row.

I guess Diggs dropping that TD pass is the karma-equalizer for their fluke TD?
We must re-establish the run in the second half and continue to stop them on Defense. We also need to anticipate their halftime adjustments. What will they do differently? Will they try to run the ball more?
Honestly, I am amazed we are ahead at the half. When Tua throw that intercept I thought bad things were coming. Surprised to say the least, the guys are playing pretty well. The return of Baker has added energy to the defense.
If we can keep up the good play...there's hope we win the division. Worry about the next game after we win this one.
Well I hope someone can make adjustments during the half for Miami to keep Diggs from getting wide open play after play or they'll keep marching down the field at will.
Run game to chew up the clock is essential to keeping the ball away from Allen. And if Miami wins, having to play these guys again next week is total bullshit.

I think this game is over. Can't do shit on offense.

That blowout loss to the Ravens probably had something to do with it. Now that Titans loss really comes back to haunt. But most of this team is banged up anyway. Too many key players are hurt. This team has become the Walking Dead.
Nice job, Tua. He always wilts in these situations, then in his press conference, he'll say something about there being another day.
Hate the lack of emotion from him. I know it won't happen, but I would not shed a tear if we moved on from him. Totally tired of his crap. WIN A TOUGH GAME!!!!!!!
Tua does it again- GIVE the DAMN GAME AWAY! five 3-and-outs in the second half- then an interception to LOSE the game! We cannot win in primetime! This kid is TERRIBLE when the pressure is on.
The loss of Van Ginkle and the return TD for 96 yards by the Bills, (allowed because of leg injury and Ingold falling over Cameron) was indicative of what was about to happen in the second half.
We also saw the superior play by a big, tough athlete (Allen) who took the game effort to a higher offensive level and the outcome for the Bills was inevitable. Tua, IMO, can't perform in the same manner. To me he manages the game and doesn't have the ability to carry a team to victory when the game is on the line. He is not the comeback kid.
McDaniel, has not mastered the use of time outs. He was out out coached again.
Collingsworth loves Josh Allen and is impressed by Allen's tenacity. Tua is just another QB--so-so to him. I have to agree with him. Tua is a 'B' level QB. Allen is an 'A' player. It shows.
Now the team will be off to play the Chiefs. Our top players are out or banged up. Elimination by the Chiefs is coming and won't be pretty. Am I grossly disappointed. Hell yeah.
Now that this debacle of a late season is over, Miami might as well just miss the plane for next Sat. AVG hurt now. Wtf who's next, Wilkins?
And the NFL can f off. There's no way I'm downloading a f'ing streaming app just to watch an NFL playoff game. The NFL has whored itself and I really hope the ratings suck for that game. Did you hear Collinsworth say to have your grandkids download the Peacock app for for you? What an asshat.
Yeah-PEACOCK. Just won't do it. Coverage may be local to us in South Florida.
I can understand why Hollingsworth gets excited watching Josh Allen play, the guy makes plays, is big and quite athletic, and has an abundance of confidence to step it up two notches when the game is on the line. Unfortunately, Tua has none of these qualities.

It’s been like this for years. Decades. Fans of the visiting team either have second homes in the area or make a vacation of it. At least Ross makes money either way.
