why did the offense?

[nick1]

why was the offense shut down in the 2nd half? we were moving the ball good in the 1st half and I felt should have scored even more but the drives ended in FGs. but in the 2nd half the offense was nowhere. we are lucky we have such a good defense. our offense also handed KC their only TD. not trying to be negative but we need to improve. I blame the playcalling, you don't run 2 WR reverses in the same game (the second one was fumbled and the first one only got 2 yards). Harrington was also not looking over his WRs, we had guys open and he had tons of time yesterday but he never progressed through the WRs.

BTW big props to the o-line yesterday, another no sack performance

I think KC got one sack. But the o-line did a great job.

my mistake but I'm just going on what I saw from the game, didn't look at stats. the o-line gave Harrington tons of time

Harrington kept throwing up incompletions in the second half and Mularkey kept calling passing plays, and then the play that nearly broke our backs, the goddamned reverse.

I think we got a little conservative after we had a 13-0 lead. But a win is a win. :tongue:

I think something has to be done about the play calling. That reverse put us in a horrible position. The call was so bad. Plus, they need to run the ball more. Ronnie Brown can do the job, they just have to give him the ball. We're passing way to much. I just can't get over how terrible the play calling has been.

I think the opposite. By throwing so much it shows we are trying to get down the field and score again and not just running ronnie to run out the clock. A few more throws downfield would have been good though. The reverse was more of the players fault then mularkey. It could have gone for a couple of yards if pulled out correctly and the whole defensive line wasn't standing in our backfield. Not saying it was appropriate becuz I would have personally just pounded ronnie. But then again maybe thats why they didn't just pound ronnie?

the first half of the game the dolphins looked great.the second half. they dummed down some,along with the trick play.the sack was a misdirection trick play that the d-end didnt bite on.he wasnt even blocked.then late in the game we are throwing deep outs?tuffest throws in the nfl.i was just happy one didnt get picked.

I don't think we got conservative. I think we lost all rhythm in our playcalling.

Plus Ronnie Browns pass attemp. If he would have ran the ball he would have went in untouched.

Something needs to happen with Mare too. %50 for a kicker usually doesnt cut it. Our seasonmight look different if he hadnt missed at NE and the Texans game. Hes usually money too.

I think the problem was Ronnies groin injury, which limited his workload and speed in the second half.

They read pass. Why he would have gone in untouched. I think that was a play time decision for Ronnie and only ronnie to make.

I guess he made the wrong one. The reciever was double covered. A pump fake would have worked instead of trying to squeeze it in or throw it away.

Yup. Least how I see it. Ive noticed though when they let ronnie throw the ball...............he is not a good qb.
