    That was a terrible call. We had a realistic FG up until that point. We have just absolutely killed ourselves this game over and over and over. We didnt do this stuff in the regular season which is why we went 11-5. Chalk it up to inexperience, less talent, aggressive ravens, what have you.

    Whatever, it was a great season and something to build on for sure. Now we just need to bring in the right guys to take us the next step.

    Not the INTs or Fumbles? Really? Even if that handoff makes it. We still need to:Score a TD, Two Point Conversion, FG. And keep them from scoring.

    no. even bigger than that mishap are the 5 turnovers. without them, this is an entirely different game. In my mind, we've out played them. and would be on top of the scoreboard right now if it wasnt for 4 INT's and Cobbs' fumble.

    I disagree. We've been moving the ball with our base offense, there's no need for trickery.

    Actually if you look at the replay, Ginn had an excellent chance of scoring on that end. An all out blitz and that side of the field was empty.

    I did not like the call too much myself but after seeing that open field it could have been genius.

    Not the four interceptions or the fumble deep in our own zone? Me thinks that those had more to do with it.

    I should rephrase that.

    That play is what killed our comeback and chance to overcome those other mistakes.

    no that was a terrible call. And I am not being results oriented here. We had them reeling on their back feet, there was no reason to try the trickery there. Had to focus on getting first downs, but at least get 3 out of it....

    They get the exchange and it probably goes for a TD. Lots of green grass out front.

    Looked like it was actually a good call.

    Give Ginn a break, it happens. He is trying to make things happen.Maybe, Penny could have placed it in his chest.Just saying, it was a mistake.

    It was a terrible call, its such an easy play to screw up, thats the point. There was no reason to try anything high risk there, we had 3 points easy. I hate that call. High percentage short passes were eating this team up, no reason whatsoever to get cute.

    The reverse was a good call. The blitz was a good call. The handoff sucked. None of which had anything to do with Ted Ginn.

    You go by risk-reward ratio. The reward is great, but the risk is a hell of a lot greater.

    Pretty much sums up why I like big WR's. They give you that extra weapon in a team's arsenal. Just ask the Giants and how Burress came in handy during the playoffs.

    I need to ask you that question. We're still fighting. That's not typical of what we had in the postseason in the past decade. Try again.

    But are the coaches and players the same? No. This year's different. And anyone who has watched Dolphins football this year knows this ain't us. We give up few turnovers and we execute well (you need to in order for a Wildcat to succeed). This is atypical.

    And here comes the results of having our D on the field the whole first half. They're exhausted and not tackling well.

    Fellow PhinFans..4 int's and one back for TD is a heck of a burden.

    We only have soo much talent to go around...and I think we have plummed the depths of what we have to work with.
