I'm experiencing a feeling I haven't felt since the Cam years--game is lost with more than 1 Q left, wondering what the hell I am doing watching this on such a beautiful day. of course I'll continue to watch and suffer

We had a horrible start last year, too. Remember Arizona? And losing to the Jets (ugh) in week 1?

Give 'em a chance.

its not 2007. Our front 7 is outstanding. Problems are, No WR's at all. Ronnie Brown is on the verge of becoming a #2 overall pick BUST. And our saftey's stink

In my opinion, the problem wasn't Ronnie... it was putrid blocking from our offensive line. The blocking was positively putrid (not to mention all the turnovers). Defense played well enough to win. If you're going to lay an egg, its better to do it against an NFC team on the road. We need to take care of business at home and particularly against division rivals. It's a long season and we'll see.

Berk, although it really was beside the point late in the game, think about this.

The Score is 19-0. We score a touchdown making it temporarily 19-6.

We kick the extra point instead of going for 2.

Why??????????????????????????

It is now 19-7. We are behind by 12 points which means two touchdowns no matter how you slice it.

If we go for 2 and FAIL, we are behind by 13, two touchdowns. THE SAME.

However, if we go for 2 and succeed, the score is 19-8. We are behind by 11, a touchdown and another two point conversion and a field goal.

With 3 minutes left in the game, it makes no difference, ...................................................................................but what happens when our staff can't do this simple math with 1 minute left IN THE THIRD QUARTER????

The team needs to re-evaluate what they have been doing. The o-ling especailly looked like they were still playing in the preseason

Ok Ronnie, and Ricky looked solid, our o-line collapsed just about every play, them, and Fasano lost us the game, good job to Atlanta's defense, and good job to our defense. Oh yeah Ginn should just kneel in the endzone, he failed every time to get it to the 20. Cobbs got it to the 24!!!!

Ricky looked great. Ronnie looked terrible. Same O-line. Same play calling.

Ronnie was bad!

Ricky looked sharp in preseason, and he's still the more talented back.

We did go for two, but when you go for two it is only worth one point. Had we only gone for one, we wouldn't have received any points because they are rookie points and they don't count.

I'm glad somebody understood the joke. Don't get mad ChyrenB. I just needed some comic relief after that piece of crap performance by the Phins.
