Grading the Miami Dolphins; Week XV: Jettisoning the Jets.

The Dolphins earned the skepticism of their fans by consistently and constantly failing in these moments. Not just last year, go back to Flores, Philbin, and Gase and Miami had several seasons where they needed to win only one of their final three games to clinch a playoff berth and couldn’t do it. Farther back, in Dan’s final season the Fins started 7-1 only to finish 9-7 and get embarrassed by the kittens in Duval in the second round. Tua said these aren’t the “same ‘ol Fins” Sunday was the first step in proving that true, now go finish the season strong and claim the Bye. 

Grading the Miami Dolphins; Week IX: Self-Tomahawked against KC.

Yes, the Philadelphia and Kansas City games were competitive compared to the Bills fiasco, but going into half time down by twenty one points would’ve made it a top seven comeback in NFL history. The Giants earlier this year came back from a 20-0 halftime deficit against Arizona marking the franchise’s largest halftime comeback in it’s 99 year history. So let’s not get too carried away with the “well it was competitive” narrative. The Dolphins left themselves no margin for error and they had a lot of gaps in their game.

Fins @ Chiefs: 4Keys to Delfin-Sieg

Will Miami finally make that moment theirs or will they continue to be the behemoths of the bottom, the lords of the lowly, the caesars of the cellar?

Grading the Miami Dolphins; Week VIII: Porpoises Pulverized the Pats.

“One if by land, two if by sea, and if by air it shall be three” most of us have only ever heard the first stanza of the Patriot Paul Revere’s midnight ride. When the Greatest Surf on Turf comes, we know “they’re in the air, they’re on the ground, they’re always in control, and when you say Miami, you’re talking Super Bowl!” These Patriots were not prepared for an air assault.

Grading the Dolphins; Week III: SurFins to 70.

My favorite play of the game was when he called the no-look shovel pass, again. Fool them once, great job you; Fool them twice, nana nana boo boo.
