Easy dude ..We won!!! But I know what you mean...We should have crushed these guys.
It was 3rd and 7. If Miami ran it and didn't pick up the 1st down, the OP would probably be complaining about not trying to pass the ball on that play.

This is a serious issue in my eyes. I think we should have passed the ball on that play, we convert and we can pretty much ice the game. However, run plays when we are in field goal range (and fairly early in the game) on 3rd and 4 are unacceptable. Good teams convert those plays and we are good enough to not mail it in there.

The run though does eliminate TB's other TO and our punter was crushing it. I would have run the ball and not because it was intercepted but because of the TO factor.
If we were going to pass at all, it should of happened on 2nd down, trying something a little more unconventional and catching Tampa Bay sleeping. Our playcalling on offense is mediocre and easy to read.
This wasn't the only bad play call Henning made. How about that reverse on 3rd and 3/4 that went nowhere? The guy makes odd/easy read play calls consistently week in week out.

Miami won.
First change I would make is deporting fans like you to the Meadowlands.
Seriously though, how are posts like these helpful. More so when you win. Apparently some of you guys don't watch football enough to know any team can win. Also, the Dolphins are still growing. We are not this super elite team nor will we ever be one if you make a change every single time something doesn't go your way.

My friend and I disagreed on this just before the play. He, as many of you seem to agree, felt we should run the ball, burn their last time out, and let our defense win the game.
I disagreed. I think the pass was the right play call. There was 1:57 left, if we run, they call a time out and they have ~1:45. That's more than enough time to march down the field even with no time outs.
I think it was the right call to go for the win when you can. Henne simply made a bad decision to try to force the ball in a small window.

If not him then someone else. Or several someone elses. Typical message board mentality. I guess even FH isn't immune to bull**** like this.

I would have passed there as well. Sure you don't want to throw the INT but he did so there you go. Henne manned up and threw some good passes to get them the victory. Isn't that what it's all about?

Henne made a horrible throw,,,,but he did not get down and he brought us back for a nice win. The funny part was all the celebrating by Tampa's players when they went ahead on the field goal. Ooops.
