COVID-19 screws things up again. The NFL changes the schedule and we will play the Jets next Sunday. It appears to be a late game. More to come on this as things unwind.

We had a great day winning 43-17. All Dolphins fans have to be pleased with this outcome. Progress.

Damn, just saw the footage of Prescott's broken ankle. Gruesome. How terrible. I hope the surgeons are really good.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I didn't see Dak's Prescott's injury. Ugh I'll catch that later. Another FG makes it 40 Dolphins points. We have it clicking today. Wonderful effort.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Too many penalties committed by the Dolphins keep the 49ers alive. More points so 49ers now have 17. We need to be smart, but aggressive. Keep putting pressure on them defensively. Nice sack Baker! 4th Quarter and we need to get another TD at least.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Pass down the middle to Williams. Another TD. This is fantastic TC been waiting for this for a damn long time. Fitz is hot today. I love it. The team is making plays. The last series by 49ers was aided by the Refs. Bad calls kept them alive to get a TD against us. BUT, we responded. That is great to see.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Mistakes and great plays put us way up at the half. It's a great day for Dolphins fans. We need to keep the pressure up. Don't curl up into a ball but stay hungry for a win. Kick butt. Build confidence. Go MIAMI!!!
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Fitzpatrick read the third down play wrong trying to hit Gesicki for a TD and missed because of good LB coverage. Rather have 7 but 3 more is good for 24 with 2 minutes left in the first half. Now we need to stop the 49ers and go in with ahead 24-7. Get tough defense.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Gesicki---- Long, long play! Great throw and catch. Let's get another TD guys. This is fun!
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Fitzpatrick to Parker for 6. Yes!!!!! Our QB is playing very well and our receivers are getting free and catching. Great. Things are looking up offensively.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Well, we were outplayed on that drive leading to 7 points for the 49ers. It all started with out bad field position. Go Dolphins!
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Grant should of let that punt go; muffed it and we start deep. C'mon Fitzpatrick...get us going again. 2nd quarter now. Let's go!
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Another excellent drive and a run to the left side for a TD. Yes, yes, yes. Looking good, huh TC!
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Stopped the 49ers drive on 4th down. Excellent so far.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Excellent drive down the field for TD and extra point. Good long pass started this drive off with a bang. Keep it up. Colonel

The Dolphins this Sunday have made the long flight to SF to disrupt the 49ers and play havoc with Jimmy Garoppolo's offense. It time for the Dolphins's secondary to come alive, play together as a unit, understand coverages and take it to the 49ers in SF (2-2). Yes, we can do this! The Dolphins have talent and it's time they get traction on offense and defense. Garoppolo has been out since
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

TSStamper--it's about synchronization. I think you nailed it. Practice and on field play and post game review will help get the players on the same coverage play. Look for fewer coverage mistakes each game and that will be evidence that things are coming together. Look for improvement this week against the 49ers. If we can score some TDs we might just beat them.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

TC, I agree that Iggy should be better than he is showing...no question about that. While not stated earlier (above) I don't wonder about his physical ability, but wonder about his football smarts, his awareness. That may be his real problem and if it's very low, no amount of work will improve it to match his draft rank. We need to see how he progresses. He needs tutoring!!!
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Competition at the professional level is far greater than what college players see and experience even against the best opponents. Iggy as he is being called for short, is not matching up well at the moment. He's like a puppy chasing a ball that's thrown in the back yard. He knows a ball is being thrown but has to wait for it to bounce a few times before he gets it. With experience that same pupp
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

With 5 field goals instead of TDs, one has to wonder whether it's plays being called that are failing from the start because they are bad plays or whether they are good plays with miserable execution that causes them to fail. Clearly, nothing is a sure thing and lots of teams have difficulty once they get to the 20 or inside it close to the end zone, yet we, the Dolphins seem to show a lack o
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Well, no celebration today. We had chances and just couldn't do it. Secondary is still showing inexperience although the O-line looks like it is coming around. RB #34 Howard had few touches and he doesn't seem to be close to what was expected of him. What was key to this game IMO was Russell Wilson. He's an elite QB and is quite capable of carrying his team to victory. He's very capable of
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Howard picks off Russell in the end zone stopping Seattle cold. Great play. Now we can get back into this ball game. Go Dolphins!!!
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Damn--it was close at 10-9 going with seconds left before half time. Secondary screw up allows BIG passing play and sets thing up for a Seattle TD. Receiver was uncovered. Big mistake; Wilson found his receiver and is still saying " I can't believe how open your were" to his receiver. Half time now and I hope we can regain composure and strike back with some good offensive play
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

SACK--Stopped them on 4th down gambit.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Brieda run was good; Parker moves the chains some more and we get 3 more points. Still in the game. Fitzpatrick trying hard to thread the needle and is getting close to being picked off again. He needs to find the open receiver, IMO, and they exist.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Couple of things: The field looks like crap. With all the rain we've had, why does it look so dry and patchy. Parker: He continues to be injury prone. Losing him will make it difficult for the offense to click. If he comes back to play he will not be close to being able to get free of his defender. Fitzpatrick seems to have a weak throw this week...at this point in the game. Gettin

The Mariners make the long trek to South Florida to engage the Dolphins on a wet field of play. The Mariners are a good team and the Dolphins will be tested everywhere. Each week the Dolphins have showed a few degrees of improvement and I do expect the same this week but will it be enough for the team to hang with the Mariners? The challenge is there. How far will the Dolphins step up to meet
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Okay, guys, let's leave Tannehill out of the current Dolphins play. Nothing to be gained by dragging that crap into any conversation. Let's support the current Dolphins team and watch them get their footing. After 10 games or so, fans like us should have a good idea on position play that is way off the mark. Look for improvement each game against opponents with their own play problems. It

Samsam, why in the world are you already thinking about the NFL draft in 2021? There's a lot of football left in 2020. Many things can happen, good, bad, or somewhere in between.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Howard intercepts and stops a good drive by the Jaguars. Now less than 2 minutes left and we are going to win this one. Conservative play during the 2nd half--not what I like to see, but there were no critical mistakes made that cost us points so that is good. Nice turn around from last Sunday. Fun for a change!
