What we saw today was more of the same pitiful slop we have had to endure the last two weeks. I have a sick feeling that Nick is going to Ride Daunte right into the ground. Sure Joey isnt Tom Brady and will surley throw interceptions but he can move and create opportunities on the fly. Daunte looks like a Statue just standing there. Every highlight show today all said the same thing including Marino. "Sure they won but Daunte looks sick!" "He looks confused" "Scared" Geese I feel sicker then when we lost because I know this win was just a diversion from reality. Sure the problems are bigger than daunte, they are the O line and secondary but the most glaring problem right now is that Nick Saban had 6 months to put things in place and this is the best he came up with. How do you explain that?
 
The bottom line is, if we were a good team or a solid playoff team we would've beaten the Titans soundly. It never would've been a game. Look at how San Diego dismantled the Titans 40-7.
 
lol, it was a pretty pathetic win, but a win nonetheless. Our D played well at least. That's a bright spot.
 
It looked bad....but 1-2 sounds much better than 0-3.....we should be 2-2 next week....but we have to play much better. DC is getting sacked, fumbling the ball...some of it you can blame on the line but I think he is taking way too long deciding what to do. Either run, pass or throw it away...but don't stand there and get hit. :rolleyes:
 
What I did not like was the long completions to especially Bennett. On the Collins TD pass looked like Tillman got beat by a step. Great catch by the way. We definitely stopped the run. I am going to watch the TIVO of the game and focus on breakdowns in the secondary especially at safety position. Goodman was a bright spot though.

I thought he ran for a TD or is that just me????
 
Simply put, it was another lousy performance. The O line was pathetic once again, both in pass protection and in creating holes for our running game. The secondary had so many lapses it was downright scary. There were at least 5 times where Bennett or another Titan receiver totally burnt one of our DB's and Collins barely overthrew them, but most of them would have been sure TD's.

The game was gift wrapped for the Dolphins with that lucky pick that Daniels got. If Collins throws the ball just a foot to the right, Bennett easily catches it and their drive continues.

I am not gonna be a moron and insist that the season is doomed, but in all honesty, there was little to be impressed with, except for Culpepper's completion to Welker that iced the game and Ronnie Brown's continued effort in gaining real tough yards.
 
Hey, If we lose every game this year I will still watch. I have been watching for 35 years. I live and die with this team just like we all do but I saw the decisions Joey was making in preseason and Cleo Lemon for that matter. They both were mobile and made plays. Sure they were against some scrubs at times but Daunte looked like crap when we put him in during preseason too. We all saw it but were just afraid to say it out loud.

This is one of THE MOST RIDICULOUS comments I have ever seen on these boards. No no no, the bottom line is... the Dolphins won the game. The record and whether the team makes the playoffs or not depends on wins and loses, that is the bottom line. But I agree it wasn't a good performance from the Phins again, but hey, I'm gonna be happy this team is not 0 - 3 until next week when hopefully I'll have more to be happy about.
 
Funny. It feels like a win to me. I dont give a **** what team we beat or how soundly we beat them. If we win, we win. Bottom ****ing line.
 
I'm sure every time Rosie Odonnell looks in the mirror she thinks she looks good. But from where the rest of the world stands we all know how she looks and she is no Scarlet Johansen! You may think the dolphins look better today becuase of this win. But to the rest of the league they still look like a team in trouble.

No they didnt. Collins had a good game, and would have been better if he hit those wide open receivers he had down the field. Nobody was within 5 yards most of the time, and Collins overthrew them. If we played a good team, we would have gotten killed!

Yeah man, we played piss poor football today. We don't look anything like the team that everyone thought was going places. The season isn't over but if they play the way the are now we are going nowhere.
