Gonna Be A Long Week In Dol-Fanville

Ugh. As in ugly.

Just when I thought I saw every way you could lose a game, we found another.

Who ordered the bonehead penalties with a side of freaky turnovers?

It's too tough to even recap it all.

A wasted outstanding effort by our special teams. Except for bonehead unsportsmanlike penalty.

A wasted good effort by our defense. Except for a bonehead contacting a defenseless receiver penalty.

Better off forgotten by the fans. This is a hard pill to swallow. This week will drag.

The pain will last. The fourth quarter will replay and replay in our mind's eye all week long.

The biggest issue right now is Tunsil and if he can get back in the line up.

Without him, we are toast.

With him, we are a bagel. Just one big hole in the middle of our O Line.

The "O" seems so symbolic right now.

I don't understand why with 14 seconds left and down by 10, you don't throw the Hail Mary.  It's the only chance to score, kick the onside and then score again on a final Hail Mary.

If your worried about getting Tannehill hurt, throw in the back up. But throw the Hail Mary. You may score with 5 seconds left. Then recover the onside with 2 seconds left. And try another Hail Mary.

At least give yourself a chance.

Anyway. Disappointed and dismayed.

Da Bears are next. Maybe we should sit Tannehill. Khalil Mack will rip his head off with the O Line we got.

Phins Up,

3rd and 1 up 17 try a long pass to stills? Gase is awful.turning point of the game.

avatar

I thought the same thing. We were running the ball pretty good. They did it twice on third and one. Unbelievable.

avatar

Got to agree with you there jelly

avatar

Unbelievable is right ben

avatar

Gase will be fired at the end of the season .Start all over, New coach and qb.

avatar

We can only hope Gase is fired and Tannesuck is finally released.

Is Tannesuck really worth 15 million dollars a season? Could you probably have better success with a rookie QB at a 400k salary? Use the extra salary cap savings to further upgrade the team

Cannot argue with you right now

That's for next year

Tanehill clearly showed how incompetant he can be under pressure today , where great QBs can make things happen in these circumstances Tanehill can not.He is a pedestrian QB that needs a good line in front of him because he is not Fast enough with desiscion making like an instinctive natural born QB. This is the year he makes or breaks . Making a QB outta a receiver in collage and drafting that high sounds hair brained to me any ways.there is a reason he was not a QB at the college level .If this offense doesnt get on track soon this will be the end of the Tanehill experiment and possibly Gase too

The play calling was and has been atrocious. Those 3rd and 1 air ball. But even worse is 2nd and 20. Every team knows that Gase is going to call a run. This loss again falls directly on the QB and Coach. Everyone else played great, well not Sam Young . It's bad when the two leaders are incompetent.Hope they can get it together, but I hate hearing the same BS "we just gotta get better every week". They should already be better

Who didn't think this team was going to completely & pathetically revert back to their typical selves? I mean, with any other franchise, you would be absolutely stoked that your team starts off 3-0....but with THIS horribly run football team, starting off 3-0 only means that a 5 or 6 game losing streak is lurking. Tannehill is a poor man's Andy Dalton. Surround him with a team full of pro-bowlers & he can win you some games....but if you're counting on THill to win the game in crunch time or heaven forbid put his team on his back, then you will lose EVERY SINGLE TIME. Tannenbaum has done Gase no favors, as all his trades /signings have amounted to zero. Fire everyone, start over yet again. Such a very incompetent franchise....wow

Lol Phinsfan54zt. It's becoming an epidemic.

avatar

The O Line is a mess again so I don't know how we can win the next 3 weeks.

avatar

That post game message could run longer than The Lion King.

avatar

No depth on the O Line. Once again.

avatar

But but but, QBR!!! Tanny’s Is a 92!!! Don’t you guys know that makes him ELITE? Ask Gase! He’ll tell you dopes how great he is!!

avatar

I've given up hope that TH17 will ever be a competent QB. Sucks under pressure, on 3rd downs, in 4th qtr, and when playing behind in games. He is just plain awful.

avatar

That's right Carl.....but more specifically, just exactly HOW MANY YEARS does it take to build a semi-decent offensive line??? I mean, aren't we going on like, 10? 15? 20 ridiculous years with 5 guys from accounting as our offensive linemen??? It is utterly comical that NOBODY in Miami's front office over the past 10-15 years has been able to build anything that might be confused with a solid offensive line. Not to bring up old stuff, but genius Parcels set this team back 10 yrs with his caveman philosophies. And the incompetence continues.....

avatar

There were three pro bowlers on the OL 2 years ago. The team still sucked. Time to put the blame where it belongs. The QB Whisperer and his Goldenboy. They both suck!

avatar

Who does Weasleface cut this week? I know who it SHOULD be!

avatar

He had some bad luck on the second pick 6 but the first one was boneheaded.

avatar

Steven, I dont consider him completely awful. At times, yes. Others great, good, ok and bad.
He is just inconsistent. You never know what you are going to get.
I am not convinced he is a money player. That's for sure.

avatar

Ok Drumrboy. We see were you stand.

avatar

The draft is such a crap shoot. We have to spend 2-3 front end picks for 2 years to get the depth we need at OL. Maybe now we could afford that luxury as most other rooms look solid enough depth wise.
