Happy to get the victory and feeling great about being 8-5 but we lost our star QB to an intentional cheap shot to his knees. Even worse than the piece of garbage, Campbell, intentionally injuring Ryan Tannehill was the refs not even throwing a flag. I remember a similar intentional cheap shot on Dustin Keller by Swearinger that ended his career. This was that flagrant and that awful. The refs burned us all day and it reminded me of the San Diego game where they out and out cheated us all day. Ajayi recovered that fumble, no damn question about it! There was an angle I saw and it was plain as day. There were many other bull crap flags, we all saw them. So I ask, why are the refs cheating against our Dolphins? Who's behind this? Who's pulling the strings? And how can we make it stop. After the Diego game I called the league office. I got through to one of the guys who oversees the officials but I'm sure I didn't accomplish a thing. As I told the league office guy, it's not sour grapes because the team I root for won the game! After the game Jarvis Landry said that for the past few weeks the team has had to beat the refs, the weather and the other team. Tannehill went down like a warrior and I know he would want the fan base to shake it off, be tough and get behind the team and root hard for Matt Moore to do great.
 
That was a cheap low blow. Hope Matt Moore can be magical and get us in the playoffs. I'll definitely be cheering him on. Hope Philbin gave Moore that magic potion
 
Miami to the NFL isn't a marquee name. They want Denver in the playoffs. The league is a joke and if it came out that it's rigged I wouldn't be shocked at all. Every 50/50 call went against us in our own stadium. It's just the reality of Miami sports.
 
The way the NFL operates under this Fascist Nazi Commissioner is just sickening. Every aspect of their operations and logistics is either evil or monumentally STUPID!!!!!

Why are there old men and women who don't know their heads from their asses and can't even see well acting as officials for the highest level competition in the world.

Start an academy and place gifted,talented, and highly trained and skilled young men and women, who would be true professionals and paid a good wage, as the officials in the NFL.

No more town hall meetings on the fifty yard line. Every official would always know what to do at all times immediately because they train 3 or 4 days a week in preparation for games.

They would be true paid professionals who would be accountable for the smallest of details. Only the smallest error percentage would be allowed. Those not able to uphold the standards, or showing the slightest bias would be fired.
 
its absurd there was no flag thrown on that hit on tannehill...ive seen guys flagged for way less of a hit and flagged just because it was low. Today the refs were really bad all day.
 
Find a friend in the FBI and coax him into initiating a RICO act investigation into the NFL.

lol

Love the idea. There is no accountability for these refs and they **** up more than ever and they even have replay to help them now. I wanna know what the hell a hold is because steen got a holding call for pushing a guy to the ground but there was no call when the right tackle consistently had his arm wrapped around wakes neck....is there a reason holdings are rarely called on the guy guarding Wake? every week im yelling "HOW THE **** IS THAT NOT A HOLDING!!!!!!!!"
 
I'm not happy Tannehill got injures, but I really don't think there was intent to injure there. I've seen too many plays were it happened both ways opponents and Dolphins making similar plays. It's dangerous, but I don't think it's done with malice.

A lot of my extended family are Cowboys fans. You know when everyone around you is in disbelief and telling you how badly your team is getting screwed over by the officials that it's not just in your head. That's been me the past few weeks as well. People who aren't used to watching Dolphins football are taken aback by the officiating we are being dealt.

The fact that the Dolphins have have won a majority of these screw jobs? It's making fans out of my extended family. They've been an exciting product, so maybe something will give soon?
 
The refs calls today led directly to points being put on and taken off the board. The fumble recovery by Ajayi was unconscionable. To watch that replay and still give the ball to the Cardinals is beyond explanation. There were three holding calls where Cards players were either pancaked or slipped, but the refs decided to err on the side of holding. Meanwhile there were clear plays where Wake was pulled to the ground, Phillips' jersey almost ripped off, not to mention Ajayi's facemask being ripped to the point that his mouthpiece fell out....none of them called.

And then the topper...not calling a personal foul on Campbell for ending Tannehill's season.

This always seems to happen to the Dolphins. I still remember the Darren Sharper fumble after his interception when we had the big lead on the Saints. Clear as day. One of the most inexplicable calls in NFL history to me. A few calls today were at that level.
 
Officiating like this today just reinforces to me that the nfl definitely has an idea of what teams they want to showcase in the playoffs, the teams with the big names ...a show....
The calls today were indefensible and so so obvious

That's ridiculous....South Florida is a much larger market than metro Denver...and Miami was NFL royalty when the Bronco's were nothing.

The NFL wants attractive match ups...right now Denver is not attractive due to its offense.

The Dolphins aren't there yet.

If I was the nfl I don't want the Broncos in the playoffs. That's not a pretty football team. Time for new blood. Why not Miami?
 
Pittsburgh and Denver pull in better ratings than Miami. They don't want Miami in this year.
