Anyone think the Dolphins played a heck of a game today?

Overall they did OK...you can't expect Wheeler to cover a WR EVER...and you can't NOT expect a fake spike in that situation...a smart corner could have had a pick-6 there...and RT really needs to come out and get comfortable at the beginning of the game...they gotta get him warmed up better, and he needs to own that also. But ya...they didn't really sh*t the bed (outside Wilson, Wheeler, RT's first half). The coaches gave this one away on a silver platter.

 

Can't play the way the offense did in th first half, and say they played a heck of a game. They played decent overall, IMO.

Defense played very good, Coyle is a moron. Offense had a nice half time adjustment, first half was terrible 99% to blame on Tannehill.

 

inconsistant as has been the case ....its Philbins middle name

 

On the final TD, Wheeler was covering their TE.

 

The effort and heart of the team were great. The coaching sucked

 

Attitude reflects leadership. To me its no wonder the QB, and the entire offense is so inconsistent.

 

There were some positives today but I'm not a believer in a moral victories. A loss is a loss and unacceptable when you do it as much as we do.

The positives:

Our team showed a lot of heart today
Our defense kept us in this game
Our OL is light years better than I could have imagined
Landry is going to be very good
Vernon and Wake are absolute beasts
Jenkins continues to impress me

The bad:
Joe Philbin
Ryan Tannehill's turnovers and inconsistent play
Phillip Wheeler
Cortland Finnegan
Brent Grimes meteoric drop in play from last year
Where are the 2 corners we drafted last year?

 

He also had pretty decent position, IIRC. The ball was a rocket and it was in the perfect place. I saw a lot of guys in position to make plays. They made some of them, and the Packers made some of them. Wheeler might have had a faster reaction to the ball, but he was in the right place, IMO.

 

Yeah the players played great but the coaching cost us the game. Its truly sad. Philbin shouldn't be our HC anymore.

 

A smarter corner would have tackled the guy in bounds. A pick-6 on that play is a fantasy, especially against Rodgers. Why would he throw the ball to a breaking DB on the play?

 

Since the play was designed, a pick-6 is not a fantasy?

All I'm saying is that if you're expecting a pick-6 instead of a simple tackle in bounds, you might need to lower some expectations. I'm not sure a QB not named Favre makes the throw if he sees a white blur moving toward his only read on the play.

 

"You play to win the game!" -some idiot.

 

For the most part, Grimes has been OK this season, not as good as last season but certainly not bench him bad. Today, however, Nelson used his size mismatch to abuse him. For the life of me I don't know why Coyle insist on leaving his corners on one side or the other. Flip-flopping them occasionally would have given GB something to at least think about.

 

Wait until Brandon Marshall gets him next week.

 

Good strategy by Green Bay and Rodgers: Locate Jimmy Wilson, throw the ball at whoever he is covering.

 

If the d-line plays as well as they played this week, the Dolphins will have a good chance. Cutler is good at moving around in the pocket, but he's no Aaron Rodgers.

 

the fake spike is a great example. I bet philbin has never mentioned the words fake spike in his 3 years here.

 

Which even further screams his *** shouldn't have been on the field for that last drive. Everybody in the Dolphins universe knows he sucks at coverage...hell, put in an extra safety, anything, just not Wheeler in coverage.

 

Well they were awful (on offense) in the first half. Great 2nd half yes. But terrible coaching all game from the non-FG, the last drive where they couldn't decide if they wanted to be ballsy or play it safe, the badly wasted timeouts and the man-to-man coverage at the goal line against the best passing offense in the game.

They did well against a good team but who cares, they lost. And there was a fake spike on the game winning drive to add insult to injury. I'm just sick of seeing good games that they lose closely to playoff teams. It was fine in 2005/2008/2009 when I didn't expect much and figured they could build on close losses. But they can't build on it. We've been waiting and waiting and waiting... I'd like them to be a playoff team, not just lose close games to them every year and finish mediocre.

 

Not happy, but proud of them for looking decent and making it a game in the second half. Phins Up everybody.

 

I won't go so far as to say heck of a game as a team, but it was a good effort by a lot of guys. Really bummed about the loss.

 

"Best players on the field" my *** Philbin...fail fail fail. Left your team out to dry today turtle-boy...

 

No. Its over...for Philbin and Tannehill.

 

Exactly. They suck.

 

Team held their own and philbin gave put Ty hem in a position to lose. Same story every week.

Fire him. Promote lazor on a tr ouu as l basis. Start open interviews. Beatle f philbin is here next year I am taking the year off as a fan.

 

Did Grimes wear cleats today? Dude looked like he was running on ice.....sad day for him.

 

Im sure the raiders feel the same way by almost beating the chargers.Not playing horeshoes here dude.

 

More of the same. Lazor came out throwing and stalled. We fell behind. In the second half he ran balanced offense, we climbed back in. End on the final drive he goes for a pass when he should run the clock down. We lose. This was another Lazor special where the offense tried to make RT into a Dan Marino and failed, ended up unbalanced, 32 passes, 23 runs, 2 ints, and a loss.

Dude is an idiot. This is the 3rd loss in 5 games on same basis. He needs to be fired. We keep losing games because of Bill Lazor and no other reason.

 

Not sure what point your trying to make but I sure its a good one.

 

Do you think the raiders fans are proud of the way they played the chargers today?Probally not because in the end they blew the game just like us and its just another loss.

 

NO. Our QB still sucks. STILL SUCKS. If Rodgers was on our team, we win by 2 touchdowns.

 

There's a sh*tload of QBs that look lesser than Rodgers...what's your point?

 

Why do we suck so much in the first half?

 

I caught very little of the game but it appeared it was a game of halves. The O was horrible in the first and superb in the second and the D was great in the first and not so much in the second, correct? This happened in the first game of the season. It feels that they are close at times. Say what you will about Tannehill and Philbin, they were in position to win this game. Take away a INT or a bad TO and they win. With that said, they have to win the next two games or 3 out of the next 4.

KP

 

And there's a **** load of QBs better then ours.

 

OK. I will rephrase. Mediocre QB play would do. Any one of the 15 below Rodgers would do. Matt freakin Moore would do. Comprendo?
