You don't know how true that really is. Eli just had the highest completion percentage VS the Fins ever (minimum 20 attempts) and second highest passer rating ever against them. Absolutely brutal. He also averaged 10.9 yards per attempt. Not per comlpetion, PER ATTEMPT. That's just mind-blowingly insane Shocked

How in the fuk do you not cover Odell freakin becham on a fly pattern right down the middle. Landry with the stupid ass personal foul. What else? Where was Lamar Miller in the 2nd half? Not to mention hennehill coming up short, when we need him to lead, once again. Even when he made the nice pass to Stills, I said it is a mirage. It is not the rule, it is the exception. At least we did not screw up our draft spot with a meaningless win.

Another astonishingly shitty draft pick, Taylor, blew the coverage when Jones jumped the slant route. Taylor made the wrong decision because apparently Beckham is an unknown talent.

That's why I just can't get upset in the least. Funny thing is, during the game all the old nervousness I always used to feel started creeping in. Force of habit I suppose. But now I just feel...nothing.

Best thing this team could do is finish 5-11. I don't think Campbell stays regardless, so they might as well just lose out.

Grimes made one or two plays tonight, but was toast the rest of the time.  He's either finished for his career or mailing it in as a veteran trying not to get injured.  Our defense is really weak right now.  We have very little in the secondary, the linebackers are second-stringers and worse, we're short at defensive tackle, Wake is aging and may be done completely.  Vernon will want bank.

Our defense next season, barring some amazing draft picks and/or free agent steals, is going to be bottom 5 in the league, and that is ENTIRELY due to the GMs.

I had gotten the impression lately that the D was actually fighting and competing their asses off during the past 5-6 games, only to finally wear out late due to the offense's insistence on giving up the ball quickly and repeatedly.

That did happen to a point tonight, but what I saw tonight (when I could stand to look) was a pass D as bad as any I have ever seen in my life. How were they not giving up at least 30 a game coming in? Shocked

Here's a post-game thought for you. Has Ross' Dolphins ever had a winning season? I don't think they have.

Well played, Jets mole.

So have you started believing it just now, or have you felt that way all along? Cool

You know I've thought Ross was trying to keep this team crap.

He's no moron, so he makes himself out to look like one to keep his cover. He's done things that are absolutely mind-blowing when it comes to decision making. The Harbaugh/Sparano thing was really over the top though. He almost blew his cover entirely on that one. Thank god he was smart enough to bring along Ireland to deflect blame.

At this point it goes FAR beyond mere incompetence for sure. Firing coaches after each Jets loss was a cute little ploy to throw us off the trail but it won't work Ross, Degarmo and I are on to you!!! Evil or Very Mad

LOL! Real teams with real defenses struggle to cover Beckham, that's why he's setting records for most catches and touchdowns to start his career. You think our sorry squad sporting Jamar Taylor at corner and basically a weakside linebacker at Safety, under the guidance of "Boy Wonder" Anurumo is gonna get it done?!? Nope.

Wasn't Anarumo the secondary coach before getting promoted? That would explain a lot.

After last night's game, here's the team's rankings in yards per play:

Rushing Offense: 3rd (Campbell had a valid point about wanting to run more; we were 2nd in the NFL last year)
Rushing Defense: 15th (mediocre, but up from 21st last year)

Passing Offense: 28th (Virtually no change, we were 26th last year)
Passing Defense: 27th (down from 11th last year, way down)

About the only Play that I liked From Tanny was when he Killed The Call and changed the Play and threw the Long Pass to Stills for a Td. It looked like he Changed about 6 or 7 plays Last night.

And that play right there is the example of hennehill's inconsistency. I refuse to fall into the trap of if he could just do that all the time. He has proven time after time that that is not who he is. As he showed when we needed him down the stretch, no show. Yes, he had some drops, but bottom line, a good QB wins this game. Eli won the game and hennehill did not. Let's move on. I have given up on him ever bring anything but average.

I agree, scot. When the game is on the line, Tannehill NEVER comes through. Sure, it's great to throw a long TD in the 3rd quarter...but where were the big plays on the three possessions Miami had in the 4th quarter, with the game on the line? I know, I know...it was everyone else's fault, not Tannehill's. He's a terrible 3rd down passer, and he's a terrible 4th quarter QB, and he's a terrible big game QB. That's who he's been since day 1, and 4 years later nothing has changed. At some point, you just have to realize that he is what he is.

Well...that's not entirely true. Somehow, Hennehill did manage to come back from a whopping 3-point 4th quarter deficit this season--twice Shocked And the first time all he did was lead the tying FG drive, and Landry actually won it with a punt return score.

Here's a complete list of all his 4th quarter comebacks/game winning drives. It's actually more than you think, we just don't remember them because when a team keeps missing the playoffs year after year, all wins are ultimately meaningless. Also, he's never come back from more than 7 down in the 4th to win. Meaning that if the Fins are ever down 2 scores in the 4th with Hennehill at QB the game is officially over. Hell, even down by just 7 it's likely over these days.

That's a pretty sad list. Not a lot of comebacks at all.

I remember the 2013 comeback over the Patriots. Followed up by two of the worst games Tannehill ever played, against the Bills and Jets in two games we had to win to make the playoffs. Tannehill led the offense to 7 points combined in those two games.

You know, if he'd have just gotten the Fins in the red zone in the 4th against the Giants, I might've been able to live with that. But the best Hennehill could do was get them on the outer fringes of FG range--in four tries down by 7! In today's NFL that's beyond sad.

So the best game out of the 9 was the Minnesota game. 4 td 1 int and 396 yards.
