    Buffalo 17- Colts 0 with less than a minute to go in the first half. Anyone still think the Dolphins are going to start out 6-0?

    Cut blocking the DLine was , is a very smart game plan . Takes out the push and balance of our better players and exposes the LB's .

    Need to counter that this half and stop the Skins from winning each or most plays . Oh yeah , tackle better too. More pace on O , get the tempo up like last drive to start the half , not just end it .

    He's ****ing right though. This **** right here is very reminiscent of over half our games last year where we started flat then played lights out in the 2nd half.

    Buff by 17-0 over Indy is rather shocking. Jets up over Clv too 14-10.

    The fact that cut blocks are still a thing in the game shows me how they really feel about player safety.

    That implies that the staff is going to actually have some sort of game plan or preparation.

    typical week one game. we came out flat but are starting to find our groove. keep tanny in the pocket for now. dial up some more passes for cameron. r jones looked like the only guy ready for week one on defense. hopefully we adjust our schemes because they are gashing us in the run gm

    Just how Miami played last year offensively. They tend to rebound well. I'm more worried about the defense at this point.

    We need to run the ball, though. We can't stay this one dimensional.

    Guys.. we've seen some bad play everywhere, and I don't like this lack of preparation we're seeing, but there's no reason why we shouldn't win this game. Halftime adjustments Philbin is usually good at, and I have no doubt the defense (esp. DL) and Tannehill will play better in the 2nd half.

    I want to see the team come out aggressive on both offense and defense. The first half felt like both units were passively waiting for the fight to be brought to them rather than making the first move. Offense needs to stick with the urgency they showed at the end of the first half.

    Ooh, got a keyboard warrior over here! Stop expecting every God damn performance to be perfect. The world doesn't owe you anything. Appreciate a quality drive, holy ****, and stop beating the "Dur Philbum doesn't prepare us dur" drum. It's a team sport.

    Yes. We did it a lot last year, started very, very poorly then played much better in the 2nd half.

    They can be ugly , but since they are legal ( some ) it was smart strategy to utilize them . Not saying they should be legal or not but we need to adjust , fast .

    Not a surprise that we haven't been able to run the ball in short yardage. we failed twice Miller on one went the wrong side of Albert and tackled for the loss and Williams on the second I don't know what he was thinking. Not good.

    For as good of a coordinator as Bill Lazor his, his play-calling is suspect more than people acknowledge; ESPECIALLY in the red zone and, to a lesser extent, critical down and distance situations. Ryan Kerrigan made a tremendous play. But I think if you have Miller, a healthy Ajayi, or Jonas Gray carrying on that same play, it's a first down. Damien Williams is too slow at recognizing the holes made for him.

    I agree, but we need to run block better too.

    We weren't all that one dimensional before that last drive either, we would have ran more if we could have got some first downs.

    Kevin Coyle's playing right into Washington's hands in that regard playing so much Under defense with Suh lined up as a 1-technique. It's simply asinine. Some things don't change though, I guess.

    For once I was screaming to take the points, we have about 0.6 yards per rush and he tries to run the most indecisive back we have on the roster on a 4th down.

    Unbelievably bad call.

    Oh, no doubt. Can't run if the blocking is atrocious. The run blocking needs to improve, so that we aren't so one dimensional.

    I'm going to talk about my team I really don't give a **** if you like what I have to say Mary. If they are playing poorly obviously I'm gonna talk about what's going wrong. Now go get your pom POM's.

    Unfortuntely the Dolphins need the DL to play much better to cover up for the poor play of the LB's and the secondary. The Dolphins basically have Grimes and Jones in the secondary and that's about it. I really don't see any LB on their starting unit who is playing worth a damn today.

    I guess many people assumed the addition of Suh would cover up for the fact the LB's and the secondary were not upgraded in the off season. Right now the defense looks like it did at the end of last season and as we all know, that defense was terrible.
