The Red Zone!

[Dajesus]

The sucsess the Dolphins are having on both sides of the ball in the most important part of the football feild needs alot more attention. The defense has only given up 1 TD inside the redzone, and have held their opponets to 0 points in 5 of the 12 times they have let them in the zone. Our offense has scored every time they have entered the zone, and have only had to settle for a field goal 3 times. This is huge, and the main reason this team just won it's 3rd straight game.

Our defense yah, but our O messed it up inside the five with a first down twice. That is pitiful. Last year we were automatic in there.

true, the O-Line and Konrad need to get their heads on straight and start blocking down there, Ricky is great, but he can't do it when 2 (or more) defenders are meeting him at the handoff.

well, you got to give the giants credit on D. They were playing ricky all day with slants/stunts and DB's up on the line crashing. those games are going to be more frequent when we play good teams cus they know its the only chance they have to win. expect it from jaxonville and new england. But the thing is, the more jay knows a team the more comfortable he will be. we dont play the giants at all so he was playing it safe yesterday. it was obvious to me.
