Miami Dolphins - For nearly five straight minutes Ted Ginn Jr. couldn't stop making fun of his fellow receivers.

First, Ginn bragged to Greg Camarillo that while his third-down catch was big considering it extended the game-winning drive, his 53-yard touchdown reception was huge, and much more artistic.

Then he pointed out that rookie receiver Brian Hartline's yellow tie and vest outfit make him look like a Cowboy.

"All you need is the hat," Ginn said.

After weeks of being the butt of the jokes, and the source of constant criticism from the Dolphins fan base, Ginn could finally let loose after producing the offense's first big play from a receiver during Monday night's 31-27 victory over the Jets.

"One big catch and he won't shut up," Camarillo said of Ginn, who also caught a 4-yard pass against the Jets.

But it wasn't just one big catch. It was the type of catch the Dolphins fan base and coaches had been waiting for all season. No, actually three seasons; ever since the Dolphins used the No. 9 pick in the 2007 draft to select the former Ohio State receiver.

honeslty, ginn didn't do anything special. the ball laid right into his hands. it wasn't spectacular or anything. Just a great throw. Ginn did his job on that play. Whoop-dee-doo.

haha seriously?

this is what we've been waiting on Ginn for... hes been open LOTS of times the past few seasons and never hit in stride, yet he'd get blasted for not putting up the numbers...

hes been doing his job its just been the ball hasn't been put in situations he can catch them usually... its nice to finally see it all come together
 
Tony Sparano Q&A: 'Give some credit to Ted Ginn'

(On how much the long completion to Ginn and how much the final drive can mean to Henne going forward) - "I think one of the things is certainly for a young quarterback in that situation is going to be the confidence that comes with that. Along with growth, were going to make sure we learn from this, Chad learns from this and we don't want to get caught eating the cheese right now and those kind of things. I think he's a pretty level-headed guy and I think the ball he threw to Teddy was a tremendous throw. He missed one I believe it was the down before, two downs before down the middle of the field to [Anthony] Fasano and that could have been a big play for us and we ended up missing that, overthrowing it and came right back and made a heck of a throw to Teddy. Give some credit to Teddy, he made a heck of a play in that situation."

he burned Revis, one of the best corners, for a 53yd TD. Yes, the pass was perfect, but there wasn't any other receiver in that stadium that could have left the defense in the dust like that. I'm still nowhere near sold on Ginn, he'll probably come back next game a drop a couple. But he definitely gets credit for last night.

Ok, that's all great. We will see if Ginn can keep producing like he's supposed to. But as of right now, that was a better throw, than it was a catch. When he can lay out and make a great catch, or fight for the ball and catch it, then he can start talking smack.

Nothing special? There's a hell of a lot more that goes into being a WR than catching the ball. Having the best hands in the world doesn't mean anything if you can't get open. Ginn burned an elite NFL CB for a huge TD, I'd consider that particular play special.

he did do his job.. but its alot easier to do your job when you have some one who can get the ball to you and take advantage of your speed.. ever time pennington throw the ball to him he had to stop or slow down.. henne hit him in stride.. and that what ginn does best.. he gets open you hit him in stride and its 6 all day.. but we will have to see how the henne/ginn connection develops..
 
let the haters vent, they are embarrassed that they are wrong and have been wrong all along. All Ginn needed was a QB who could GET HIM THE BALL!!!!!

We are now going to be a FEARED offense. We CRUSHED the Jets offensively, better than the SAINTS or PATS or anybody else they played this year.
