*Official Week 6 Game Thread: Dolphins at Titans*

Excellent win!

Me at work tomorrow:

 

Don't follow the post at all ?

 

more on cameron and miller than Tannehill, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Looked like they were on diff pages, and Tanny relays it to them.

 

tanny rating should be like 115 without that first interception caused by cameron

 

Please don't drive like this.

 

wtf

 

You're drunk.

Call a cab.

 

Don't call for more cabernet .......

 

near the end of the game could've sworn I heard our portion of the crowd chant "Dan-iel Campbell" [clap clap clap-clap-clap]

 

I freakin love the personnel and bigger formations that they were switching in and out on offense.

 

Back to talking playoffs.

 

In typical Dolphin fashion - likely go on a stunning winning streak and then fall short, losing in a tie-breaker to Buff or NYJ

 

Two TE set is the best group Lazor has, not having Sims was a huge handicap.

 

No, no, that was a Philbin era Dolphins. This'll be different because even at the end of this game they were still going for the kill. If they win enough games that it comes down to the end, they WILL win due to a HC that isn't spineless.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again....the key to winning is RUN THE DAMN BALL!!!! Today's performance?

32 rushes for a total of 180 yards
29 passes (22 Complete) for 266 yards.

Not only did we dominate the scoreboard, we won time of possession.

Granted, it's only the first game with Campbell as head coach, but it was indeed a decisive win and if we continue this level of play for the remainder of the season, expect to see that "interim" title go away and become permanent.

Great win today!!!!

 

I dont think anyone is expecting playoffs, theyre just expecting inspired play. We have many holes on defense and on the offensive line that we can get away with against the Titans but not top teams. But at least we finally played like we belonged, and thats all you can ask for now.

 

This is the team we all thought we had .

Another very winnable game next week... the plan must be the same... attack their quarterback.. and don't abandon the run.

 

The Titans are the #1 pass defense in the league at the moment. I agree about the holes though, the secondary was leaving dudes open all day long. The OL looked at least serviceable for the most part, not the dumpster fire they'd been all year.

 

Yup, same game plan. Attack their QB. Get sacks and turnovers. The offense will need to be smart about protecting RT from Watt all day. And maybe not trying to throw the ball through him like in 2012.

 

#1 against the pass. #9 against the run.

 

No, I mean the early losses piling up end up amounting to a tie-breaker in an equal record scenario to keep us out of the playoffs.

 

Is this real life?

 

Really digging Dan's post game speech. Great win. Some things to clean up, still, but a lot to build off of moving forward.

Loved what he said about changing the system, the way the practice and prepare, and getting the players to buy in.

Had forgotten how euphoric it felt not just to win a game - but to do so in CONVINCING fashion.

 

I might have to stop watching the team on Sundays. Was at a fair with the kids and didn't watch a single play besides checking the score a few times. Figures the one game I don't watch in about the last 5 years is a blowout win.

 

Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality...

 

Happiest iv'e seen the Dolphins sideline and i'm sure most fans in the last 5 years.

 

And Tannehill got me a solid 15 on my fantasy football team. Sweetness!

 

Thoughts on Turner's debut?

edit: Today was his birthday.

 

Marcus Mariota on the OV low hit on him: "He came up to me after the game and apologized so I don't think it was malicious at all."

 

Did you miss the blow-out wins last season as well? Pats, Raiders, Bolts... lol...

Hope the fair was as much fun as this game was. ;-)

 

Vernon will get fined. Ken Whisenhunt cried enough today for the NFL to give it attention. Doesnt matter, we need Vernon to make those hits. Walk that line like Campbell says, keep walking that line. Mariota will always remember about that long day when he played the Dolphins. Sad to hear their center is done but its part of the game, if we are going to be aggressive, injuries will happen. Playing nice has gotten us nowhere.

 

we only have this team when our dline is healthy and when pouncey, albert and james are healthy. eleven more games. lets hope we skate through the season with as few injuries as possible to the two lines. but if we do get injuries to the oline then expect the offense to tank again and if the dline gets injured again then expect zero pass rush again. no scheme will cover for that. only tannenbaum could but he isnt going to find anybody this late in the season

 

How many teams have great players on the bench ready to step in at multiple positions though?

 

True when it comes to dline. The entire dline was hurting. The oline, more could have been done this past off season. We literally went into the regular season healthy and having only 3/5ths of a line. One injury all year and our offense sucks. That could have and should have been handled better

 

You misread his post cuch
