I'm tired of hearing excuses for tonight. "They were a desperate team." Yes, because they fucking suck. "They were 11-5 last year." Yes, but not with freakin Henne. "Their running game is good." Yet Henne beat us when it counted. Sorry, we lost to a bad teaman a team I saw almost everyone on this board tearing up this entire week. You want the "darksiders" to stop the sane old Jets talk, then you stop making Miami sound like the Giants. Seriously.
Have you considered that maybe they could be a BETTER team with Henne, In fact, that's one of the biggest reasons that I was very worried about this game. With Pennington, you totally know what you're going to get. Now that they have a QB with an arm, it opens up a whole new dimension to their Offense. The Dolphins are obviously much better than their record would have you believe.
They aren't the Giants. The Dolphins have a below average defense. Giants' defense is top 5. If we want to beat the Dolphins, we need to sustain longer drives and score on more drives. We need to score in the 30's.
The Dolphins should be a better team with Henne as it opens up for more pass plays, as much as I'm grateful for Penny and last year, he can't make some of the throws that Henne made tonight. On that bomb to Ginn, all Ginn had to do was put his hands up and catch the ball, he didn't need to slow down at all. The play action is going to open up a lot more of those the rest of the year.
The weakness in our defense is our middle linebackers, and our secondary hasn't been playing together that long at all.
their offensive line played out of their minds. ronnie brown ran hard as shit...and found the holes and made the right cuts. with that said, our defensive play calling sucked and so did our execution and tackling. the dolphins deserve credit because no matter how good the D played they still would have churned out a good bit of yards yards, but there was NO excuse for that ted ginn TD and some of those plays that went for 10-15 yards that should have been 3-4 yard gains. it's not black and white. there's a lot of things you can pick apart..but the dolphins played and were coached better than us in the end. FUCK, that blows to say
Dolphins aren't all that bad--they almost beat Indy. If Ginn doesn't drop 2 TD passes on the final drive, they win that game. Today, Ginn caught his TD pass.
