Hey, we possessed the ball by not giving up on the run. We won the turnover battle. We reduced the sacks, a little. Not so many false starts. Look at the rushing yards!!! I know, the end arounds, but those were great play calls. Notice, no INTs for C-Pep. If we block a little better and get the ball to McMike and Chambers more, we can really give the D some rest and play 10x better. Overall, I think we played better.
 
I didn't get to see the game but I'll take a win any day! However, I was expecting the Dolphins to do more against a Titan's team that is in disarray.
 
The O-line is still a work in progress, but if they can buy us some more time, I think we will be a different team.
 
The rushing stats are skewed as we had nearly 60 yards on 2 end arounds to WR's. Ronnie ran 26 times for 90 yards, an average of only 3.46 yards per carry. You can be even more pessimistic by saying that he also only had 63 yards on 25 carries which equates to a whopping 2.52 yards per carry if we take away that long draw run in the 4th. (Obviously it would be stupid to remove it since it actually happened. :))

I know, but we stuck with the run, even though the line wasn't blocking very well. That discipline paid off in a 3 point win and that one big Ronnie run. Can't say the same about the Buffalo game.

Remember though, Vince Young did not play as he did in the other two games which opens the game up for turnovers and miscues and Kerry was literally brand new to the team. People should remember that Kerry Collins used to be an effective QB for the giants and Panthers.

Yea, Thank You!!!! I'm seeing too much criticism after a WIN because people are basically saying that we should have crushed the Titans because they are so bad, but the Titans played a really good game!!! Collins did a very nice job of delivering under pressure(well at least half the time lol) and their dfense is better than their 0-2 record and stats would have indicated. Titans are more talented then people think, and they had a good game, so that is why it was a tough game for Miami!!! Now Miami obviously could have played better, but it's not like they did horrible, or even bad because if they did then they would have lost.
