Miami - a good team with a crappy record.

Tampa played a solid game last week, but they're not at Miami's level.

 

[Cryolemon]

Miami should win this one. I hope to see more of Pat White this week, that package worked well against the Pats, so why not against Tampa Bay?

If we lose to Josh fucking Freeman and Raheem Morris.......I'll put my nuts in my wife's hot curling iron.

 

[ram29jackson]

both teams suck, it doesnt matter who wins. its a good thing they are playing each other in the same state. They dont have to travel and bore another State with their ineptness.

O man.... Thats a tad much, but i doubt youll have to. miami wins.

 

[f16harm]

I don't like the feel of today's game, hope I am wrong. Miami has A LOT of people out of the lineup.

 

[BigBucs]

What the fuck was that call? They call that a fucking catch anf fumble on Clayton when he was clearly down by contact. WTF are the refs watching????

 

[BigBucs]

We are still in this game and can win but if we were to lose by anything less than 8 then this will be tough to swallow.

 

[Tailback U]

How bad did Ronnie Brown's injury look?

 

[Esjay]

Wow @ Tampa Bay's defense.

f16harm, rejoice in the fact you still have your nuts.

 

[BigBucs]

Should have had a stop on that last drive but 7 points is seven points and Miami was handed 7 on a fucking platter. Hurts to lose like this.

 

[ram29jackson]

There are a few things I love about your constant trash talking of the Miami Dolphins.

A) You don't know shit about what you're talking about.

B) You're a god damn Rams fan which means you don't know what you're talking about.

C) Read Above.

haha, a fieldgoal festival by too sucky teams.

again simpleton, having ram in my name is not a life definition for me. Your arguments are childish, lame and very poor.

Freeman was ok again. He had a great splash play with his touchdown pass to Stovall. However, he had 2 fumbled snaps, and was stripped twice. I watched each play and broke down each passing play where a pass was actually attempted. This does not include plays were Freeman tucked and run or was sacked, etc.

Shotgun: 13/20

Under Center: 4/8

2 WR's: 7/12

3+WR's: 10/16

***Note that the 2 wide and 3+ wide sets were tracked based off of the alarming differences in numbers last week against Green Bay. Basically, I charted if only 2 WIDE RECEIVERS were on the field. This included when the team utilized a running back or tight end in the passing game. Same applies for the 3+ sets.***

So Freeman didn't perform poorly, but, still isn't so great when under center. Olson can not rely on shotgun to move the offense. Freeman has to get more work under center. Especially if this is going to be a "run first," "smashmouth" team. You need to utilize play-action more too.

Wow @ Tampa Bay's defense.

f16harm, rejoice in the fact you still have your nuts.

The wife is happy....she didn't want to ruin a good curling iron.

Should have had a stop on that last drive but 7 points is seven points and Miami was handed 7 on a fucking platter. Hurts to lose like this.

It was the correct call, I don't know why everyone can't understand this. It was ruled an INTERCEPTION. Per NFL rules the receiver must "complete the catch" when being taken to the ground. Clayton made the catch in his hands, left his feet, came to the ground, and as he hit the ground rolling the ball popped up in the air BEFORE THE PLAY COMPLETED (ie. whistle blew). Taylor grabbed the ball in the air before it ever touched the ground from the time it left the QBs hands.

 

[MVP1991]

It didn't look good that's for sure. He has a history of leg injuries. The way it bent it could be severe or just a minor tweak. My fingers are crossed.

Right ankle injury.

Might be done for the season.

 

[f16harm]

Right ankle injury.

Might be done for the season.

if so, we need to sign Larry Johnson. We already lost arguably the best running back no one knows about, Patrick Cobbs, due to the ACL. All we have then is Ricky, Lex Hilliard from our practice squad last season, and Kory Sheets from the 49ers practice squad this year.

 

[f16harm]

We have a logic problem here. The officials acknowledged it was a late whistle, no? If the ball was live when it changed possession, then why didn't the runback count?

What day is it that the NFL does it's mea culpas for the previous week's officiating mistakes? Is it Thursday or Friday?

uhmmmmm, because the call on the field was an INCOMPLETE PASS. It was reviewed upstairs as to whether it was complete. In the review, it was actually noted that it was not an incomplete pass, but an interception due to the scenario I stated in the previous post. According to NFL rules the interception on a reviewed incomplete pass counts, but any return does not. Intercepting team gets teh ball at the spot of the interception. Why that is, I don't understand, and truly is the only question there should be with this scenario.

I see Florio on PFT just posted this a bit ago as well.

Regardless, the call was 100% correct.

went to the game. had a hell of a time. met new Bucs fans. overall good experience at landshark stadium but some dolphins fans are straight classless throwing stuff at Bucs fans. the Clayton call was total BS. Freeman played good again. the defense on the last drive was mentally retarded.
