Sparano and Henning are Total FOOLS....We are running the ball down the Bills throats and they get tricky....Ricky could have ran it in on that play. I don't blame Ricky all that much, he still played the best of everyone...heck Fasano even had a nice game. We just have no leadership when the game is on the line, the Defense looks like a bunch assclowns out there....it's disgusting.
 
I was pissed before but that article just made it worse. I hope Parcells is deep in his a$$.
 
When it happend I didn't blame Ricky because from where he was standing Haynos looked wide open. He just didn't see the defender coming across because he was shielded by the line. As far as the call, I agree it was silly to get cute there when they weren't stopping the run all the way down the field. I will say this though if it worked everyone would have loved it. It was perfectly set up with all the running.......but your right they should have just ran the damn thing in and left the circus stuff in the back page.
 
They need to play a game with no WC plays and stick to it. They may be amazed at the results. They don't need the WC to move the ball.
 
I didnt get why they called that play, when they were smashing it down Buffalo's throats on the ground that entire drive. Ricky could of scored on a run. Why go away from what got you down there???????????

Stupid call!!
 
I don't care about Wild Cat plays that means Ricky/Ronnie/Hilliard/Cobbs is rushing the ball. But throwing the ball? If his name is not Ronnie Brown or Chad Henne, stay away from throwing the ball out of the Wild Cat. When we rushed the ball on the Wild Cat there was many positive plays yesterday.

But passing the ball? Ricky Williams has not completed a pass in a real game since 2000 with the Saints. He's completed 1/3 attempts in his career. Let him do what he does best, don't put him in situations he's not familiar or comfortable with.

And with that said, what possible film did Sparano see? Did he forget to watch all those tapes of Ricky Williams passing the ball? Because there's only been 2 of those situations in the past and never has been as a Dolphin till yesterday. Absolutely stupid play call.
 
And what bothers me more is that they do the trickery in the very beginning of the game. Same that crap for when nothing else works!

Click to expand...

they tried to get too cute and out think themselves. we wont see that play again.
 
I don't give a damn what they saw on film.. When you are gashing them running it down their throats on a drive, you keep doing it when you are 1st and goal from the 3 yard line. The THREE !!!!

Dominate the line of scrimmage running the ball on that drive, the offense has a great rhythm going, and then a Ricky pass on 1st and goal from the 3 yard-line ?

When the guy hasn't passed the ball in almost 10 years ? And when the defense is all bunched up since it's at the 3 with a tight field from being at the door of the end zone ??

Are you F'in kidding me ?

Congrats on waking up that Buffalo crowd, sinking our momentum not getting any points out of the drive after the offense worked so hard to get down the field.

And congrats on making Buffalo "Believe" after that play. Having them believe early in the game.

Such a stupid F'ing play call. That play was a microcosm of our season right there.

They make everything so hard on themselves because of stupid coaching and play calling (on offense and defense).. Punch it in running the ball 3 times !!.... like we did on that entire drive to get down to the 3 to begin with ! We were destroying the Bills up front on that drive and the Bills D were wilting ready to give up early... then we run that stupid play to give them life? :lol:

I knew we would lose when I saw Ricky throw that INT on one of the worst playcalls I have seen in years.

Total idiots.
 
Yeah, with Ronnie out I don't thnk Ricky should be throwing the ball at all. If they feel they need to run the wildcat, then put Pat White in there and give it to him to throw. But let Ricky do what he does best, smash the ball down deffenses throats.
 
It has a lot more to do with the situation rather than "letting" Ricky throw a pass. I don't mind him throwing a pass "with some space", but not in that situation yesterday.

You see, those gimmick plays like a halfback pass are best used when you need a play to spark the offense.. Not when you are driving way down the field and the offense has great confidence and rhythm already, and when you are 1st and goal at the 3.

And especially not when you are in that area with the back of the end zone making things really tight in there on that portion of the field.

I know Ronnie threw one to Haynos against the Pats for a TD, but Ronnie was rolling out to create space.. Ricky was standing there like a QB in the pocket with a ton of defensive players in a tight space trying to throw a pass.

It was a different play call, and an incredibly stupid one.

It was such a stupid call to have Ricky throw when Miami was gashing them down the field on that drive. They could have easily walked into the end zone on a run the way the O-line was killing them on that first drive.

The Bills were ready to fold and we handed them momentum, starting to believe.

Ricky will have limited carries now that Ronnie is out.. And we wasted some good runs (and carries) with Ricky on that drive getting zero points out of it... For this team, that cannot happen or they will surely lose. They must be very efficient to have any chance of winning.

I knew the Dolphins would lose when that INT occured. Just knew it.
