Ja’Wuan James, who played just 22 of Miami’s 62 snaps, said he could have come back from a stinger and played in the second half Sunday. But the Dolphins didn't believe he would have enough strength.

Lazor doesn’t blame Tannehill at all for the tipped ball interception.

“That kind of game – there is low margin for error and we have to find a way to avoid those mistakes,” Lazor said.

### On the offensive line play, Lazor said: “Pass protection in the red zone was very good. Dallas Thomas continues to improve. Not perfect but played better as the game went on; best game run-blocking that he had. Jason Fox held his own.”

He said left guard snaps were split because Daryn Colledge was coming back from injury and Shelley Smith “has earned playing time.”

### Lazor loves how Jarvis Landry has developed but said “there were a couple times I felt Jarvis could have used technique to get open in tight coverage.”

### LaMichael James, making his Dolphins debut, played four snaps and carried twice (for four yards). Philbin said James played because “we saw some good things out of him” in practice.

### Philbin said the Dolphins used Dion Jordan once at tight end --- the Broncos called time out before the play was run --- because we’re “trying to use everyone we can to score points… It was something we’ve been working on for a little bit of time.”

### Philbin said the odd-looking onside kick --- in which Caleb Sturgis contorts his body and kicks the opposite direction than many would expect --- has worked in practice. “We’ve been practicing that type of kick for a year and a half.”

Pro Football Focus gave its worst defensive grades to Randy Starks (sealed off on Denver’s go-ahead TD run), Jenkins (allowed all six passes thrown against him to be caught for 84 yards and a touchdown). Delmas missed three tackles.

Offensively, PFF gave its worst grade to Dallas Thomas, who allowed four hurries and one hit.

### CBS' 4:25 p.m. games (Dolphins-Broncos went to most of the country) were its second-highest rated window all season, behind a Broncos-Patriots games. In major market overnight ratings, CBS' 4:25 p.m. games yesterday comfortably outdrew Cowboys-Giants on Sunday night on NBC.

damn...james sat the rest of the game with only a stinger...i wonder if they reevaluated him at half time...well at least i know he will suit up monday night...better news on the injury front than i expected for sure...we needed a break and looks like we got some

the lamichael james play was puzzling...almost threw a pick cause he and the qb were not on the same page...
 
Why did LaMichael James get 4 snaps and Williams only 3??? This coaching staff baffles me sometimes. Williams should be getting Daniella Thomas's carries.

I noticed the same thing. RT threw outside and Lamichael sat down inside.

The game was the second biggest draw only behind Broncos - Patriots. People are taking notice.
 
Honestly, I'd go with Shelley Smith at LG unless he shows he can't pass pro. I like the run game with Smith in there. Colledge is meh..just there.
 
LeMichael James stopped his route and Tanny expected him to keep going. Plus the ball almost gets picked and James does not even bother to go over to touch the guy down or get tackled. Not ispiring confidence by the coaching staff

There are a lot of Dolphin fans all across this country, not surprising, and Tannehill is emerging onto the national scene

Wasn't Tannehills jersey a top selling jersey this past offseason?

Says a lot about our special teams if that onside kick has been working in practice.
 
One of my main questions is why was williams back there with landry on kick returns. He had a bad one where he ran just straight and really got nothing. Then on another one he got in landrys way.
