Right after the Miami Dolphins broke the huddle and got into their offensive formation Cortland Finnegan would look Brandon Marshall right in the eye and tell him the exact route he was running.
Finnegan, Tennessee’s starting cornerback, admitted he wasn’t right all the time, but he guessed he was on the mark about 80 percent of the Dolphins’ offensive snaps.
“You shouldn’t be able to do that, but I’ve watched every single game Miami’s played this year and the formation doesn’t lie. Formations tell a lot,” Finnegan said. “He didn’t like that. Much respect.
“Whenever you can stop an elite receiver that gives you a chance to win.”
Finnegan, who often defended Marshall one-on-one without safety help over the top during Sunday’s 29-17 loss to the Dolphins, said he could tell based on Marshall’s mannerisms, and facial expressions that he was fuming inside.

Wow, Sparano. No way Henning could be the problem with the offense. Must be Chad Henne. Or the offensive line. Or the failure to execute plays. Or the lack of poise in the red zone. Or the strong play of the opposing D. Or the happiness to get points, no matter how they come (i.e. field goals).

I can only hope that Thigpen's penchant for breaking up this team's offensive plays (something the team said they wanted to 'corral') pays off. Go Thiggy.
 
Finnegan's defense got lit up. Not that transparent.
 
Thank you Finnegan.

Even guys on other teams are trying to help us get better by saying how bad our offensive coordinator is
 
We won, but Finnegan was doing a real good job on Brandon Marshall. He definitely wasn't the reason why they lost. He frustrated Marshall the entire game . . . backed up by the delay of game on Marshall.
 
Finneshigrin does have a point.. to bad the other guys on defense didnt get the memo...
 
Maybe he had a good game, maybe the Dolphins are too transparent, but when you give up 29 points maybe it's time to STFU
 
Umm, Finnegan had a very good game. The rest of his defense sucked but he locked down Marshall. He did his part. Give the guy his credit.
 
No wonder Marshall's body language was so off today. Poor guy. Every route he runs he probably doesn't believe in it doing much good.

Henning is a ****ing joke and honestly, so is Tony Sparano for being in charge.
 
ok . but henne overthrowed marshall on that deep pass . if henne works on his accuracy no CB can slow down marshall .
