Got to say Mike Wallace earned some respect from me after that. He could have went out of bounds but he wanted to put a hurting on that dude. I don't want to see that regularly but I thought the team needed that and credit to Moreno for sparking it.
 
Wallace notably played much more rough than usual. I liked it, That was a FUN game to watch, especially with me sitting next to a Pats fan at the bar the whole time.
 
Damn. Right. He's a little dude. He fought for that ball on the td too. He dropped a few passes roo. Overall a little above average game. Tannehill needs to improve on his accuracy though. Need some more passes to hartline as well
 
After that game w/ Wallace lined up in the backfield & running intermediate crossing routes, I'd bet Sherman had to be committed.

Little? He's 1.83 cm (6ft) and taller than the the average safety by 2 inches.

Whatever his weight is listed at IDC, he's not over 200 lbs. The average safety has about 20lbs on him and he made a statement by driving that dude into the dirt.
 
Besides that fumble and drop he played really solid. Wanna see him keep this up the rest of the year.
 
He had an awful stretch there at one point. He fumbles, shows no awareness on that sideline throw that should have been a TD, and then gives up early on that deflection that he could have snagged. Then drops that other ball.

After that though he made a couple plays and bounced back. He started playing with some emotion. I think Moreno's energy was carried over by everyone, and Mike definitely started showing some fire.
 
He had some awful plays today. Should have had two other touchdowns... Plus the one tannehill missed on

Knowshon Moreno rubbed off on Wallace without a doubt!

Not only on Wallace but Miller too. You could see the change happening and they manned up big time.

Can't say the same for Hartline who once again showed his softness after a catch by going to the ground instead of taking on the defender or bulling forward for more yards. The specific one that sticks in my mind was when he caught a pass for a 1st down (think it was in the 3rd quarter) and then just "ran to the ground". It looked like he could have gotten at least another 4 or 5 yards but went down instead of risking a hit.

This is not a freak occurrence with him.....pay close attention to his catches and you'll see 8 out of 10 times he falls to the ground after a catch....unless he is in the clear with no traffic around.
 
Two words: Knowshon Moreno!

He's starting to infect this teams attitude on O!
 
Someone said something in the locker room at half. This was a completely different team after that.
