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.
Covered as usual...but that also means that Hartline, Bess and Fasano are not stepping up and making plays. Until that happens teams won't loosen up on Marshall.
I remember in the beginning of the game...the commentators said, "the Dolphins feel the can run on the Titans in the middle." Tells you how dumb the coaches are. We are not able to run the through the middle.
We should have never called that route in the first place...yes Henne threw a poorly placed ball and that pick was on him...but we should have been working the sidelines.
The two underthrows by Henne was probably as a result of him being criticized so much for throwing so hard. When you lose your job over a certain criticism, you tend to overcompensate when you get it back.
On the interception, you could say that was Henne's fault for not leading left instead of leading right as he did. However, if you noticed the replay there was a defender closing fast on the left. Henne could have legitimately thought that throwing to the open space to the left would have given that defender a better shot whereas, at least, if he throws to the right there is a competition for the ball.

Oh, I agree... but that's why I don't want to see Young in there. At least Collins isn't likely to scramble for positive yardage. With the way our guys have been tacking, it could get ugly if Young plays the second half.
This is so bad I may vomit. Brandon Marshall is being single covered by a 5'10" corner in the red zone, so they throw the fade to Hartline?!? What moron called that?!? That interception was a terrible throw. He throws it short and to Marshall's back shoulder, and it gets picked off. If he throws it where it should be thrown, it's a touchdown, or at least a long gainer! Thigpen, anyone?
