    And once again a flat team who lets the opposing team drive right down the field on them..offense won this game with their efficiency, where the crowd doesn't matter..

    Some folks will tell me, well we won so it doesn't matter, buts that's BS, our defense couldn't get off the field, 0 energy on the first defensive drive...That's directly related to this issue imo..

    That right there is a problem, players come out for warmups and feel that lack of energy, go into the locker room with a negative vibe about their crowd..lack of defense on that first drive was as predictable as the sun rising..

    I think the Miami dolphins should publicly address the problem.

    And how should the Dolphins go about publicly addressing the problem?

    How many stadiums are packed during warm ups? I have a hard time believing we are that much different in regards to warmups.

    We take a little bit to fill, usually by mid 1st quarter. But what exactly do you want to do about it?

    I live in PA, and just wanted to say how grateful I am to those who went to the game to support the team.

    Thank you!

    Indeed. Just leave the chloroform at home. (Just kidding.)Are there any Dolphins' bars around here? I have to go to my brother-in-law's to watch the game, but I go every week.

    When Damon's was in Hanover a bunch of 'phin fans would meet up there and get the game on the big screen. I have Sunday Ticket so I catch every game except Oct. 6 vs. Baltimore this year..I have something that day and can't watch it :(

    First off Nasty, you must admit there is a correlation between the team coming out flat and the fans not being in their seats to start the game..I do, 100 percent, so I'm not gonna hide behind it, I'll find ways to address, emails to season ticket holders, public service announcements on the radio, a marketing campaign thru billboards, and the easiest way, we have a PA system at the stadium, use the freakin thing..

    your missing the point about final warmup, relatively speaking, there isn't as many fans in their seats during the last warmup, therefore, not in their seats during intros..these are the two Instances where players know what's up.

    over there
    It was half empty in the beginning because it was pouring rain 45 minutes before the game started. 5 minutes before kickoff the sun came out.
    Was a great crowd ! Place was loud most of the 4th Quarter.

    Live from the Internet.
    I was there as well.
    I agree with Frummundah and BlameItOn 100%. Unless you were at the stadium prior to rain starting to fall, you either got there at kickoff or were late. It stopped pouring at roughly 340. I packed up my stuff and headed inside. We tailgate at East 12 and it took me about 10 minutes to get in, at least. By the time I got to my seat, the National Anthem was near the end. Plus, it's Miami. People are going to be late. If you are still *****ing about it, you probably haven't spent alot of time in South Florida. Not saying its right or wrong, it's just how it is.
    Nasty, lol I hear you man. I was in 144, and me and couple of other dudes would jump up and get the whole section going. We had to, too many people were sitting on their hands. In the 4th quarter it got REALLY loud, haven't heard that stadium like that in a while. At Dolphins games at least lol 3 weeks against the Gators we were loud in there. You gotta take the initiative to start yelling and screaming, people will join you.
    As for the crowd, definitely one of, if not THE biggest over the last 3-4 years that I recall. The only game I can think of that was as loud/louder was my favorite game that I have ever seen in person, where THIS and THIS happened :king:

    Deej, I really gotta disagree with you on this one. First of all, these players know what kind of crowd they get and that it arrives late, it's just how it is. Plus, in all reality, fans matter when it matters in the GAME. You say players "know what's up" in warm ups in intros...I tell you players know what's up, when on third down the PA cranks *****s In Paris, Reshad Jones starts dancing and pumping out the crowd, the crowd goes nuts and Matt Ryan throws an in completion. That's when they know what's up. When they ask for the crowd involvement and they get it.
