You can count on the dolphins D to fold at some point in the 4th qtr. especially if it is a close game.
Still no shot gun?
what did we have? maybe one PA roll-out?
And I swear we only have one running play in the play book. Send somebody in motion, usually McMike then run up the middle. even if it is 3rd and 21.
I swear I have seen other teams run to the outside with sweeps and pitches. it has to be still legal. Let our wr's block since obviously the o-line can't. the play calling sucks. why don't they run the 2 min offense early in the game. it is the only time we have success.

the good points:
the oline looked slightly better - still sucks.
we have finally found a rb that can average more then 1 yard per carry--- almost.. congrats to henry for getting 41 yds on 21 carries for a solid 1.95 average. if you want to round it up you can give him 2.
umm.... yeah... no other good points.
 
Look Gotta...you CANT expect your D to pitch a shutout every week.

Our team needs our D to hold them scoreless AND score a TD for us to win.

this is exactly what i been screaming. The point is not about us having a "fold in the 4th quarter on the last drive everytime" defense. If it wasn't for them, we'd look like the 49ers did today, for 16 straight games. Probably even worse. I'm happy we've been in the game most of the time. Oh well, back to ruining my liver.......
 
I really don't blame the defense outside of Sam Madison and his continued immatureness. They have to exert so much energy to hold the other team scoreless just to go out there again in three plays. What do you think was running through their minds when on the first play of the game we turn it over? They must have felt like Atlas carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. These guys cannot continue to be put in this situation. We didn't even score a TD tonight. This was the worst performance I have seen from the Dolphins ever. Funny, I said that a week ago too...
