Dolphins hang on to win in OT against Bengals 38-35

I admit it. I changed the channel at 35-12. I think it was when Myles Gaskin got injured. I mean the game was over, right? It’s really not important that the hapless Bengals scored 23 points in less than 5 minutes against us. It sure did make for a more interesting ending though. Bengals fans were probably getting pissed, and I bet some Dolphins fans were getting excited that we might get a better pick in the draft. In the end a Jason Sanders FG won it and all that went away.

How about that Ryan Fitzpatrick? No running game, adequate pass blocking at best, and this guy just keeps throwing TD’s and moving the ball up and down the field. 52 pass attempts, 419 yards and 4 TD’s. Unbelievable. DeVante Parker and Mike Gesicki do NOT have the seasons they are having w/o Fitzpatrick. I firmly believe that. This guy is playing out of his mind. His escapability out there is uncanny and his running ability shocks team week in and week out. He keeps so many drives going by eluding the rush and getting positive yards. Major props to Ryan Fitzpatrick who I admittedly didn’t want to see at the helm. I had hoped Josh Rosen would be leading our team but I’m happy that I got to see football worth watching this season because of Ryan Fitzpatrick.

I don’t stress over blowing a 23 point 4th quarter lead because this has been declared a stress free season and it’s legitimately been just that. The only thing that upsets me are injuries. Myles Gaskin left with an ankle injury and his status for next week is unclear. That’s a good sign as far as I’m concerned, I thought it was bad. We’ve had a record number of players that have been on this roster so what Brian Flores has been able to do with that is impressive.

DeVante Parker. The boy went over 1000 yards receiving this past Sunday. 64 receptions for 1065 yards and 9 TD’s with a 16.6 yards per catch average. If he had more catches he’d be in some elite company. Mike Gesicki now has 47 catches and 536 yards and 4 TD’s. He’s just getting started . . . These are things that get you pumped about next season. Draft well, bring in some more talent in the trenches on both sides of the ball, and we should be on our way to being a very tough team to beat. Flores has a bunch of no-names right now. He’s done amazing things. If you bring a bunch of names in here the whole dynamic changes. It may be harder for Flores. No joking. It’s easier to get guys who want to be on a roster to play hard for that spot but bring in a bunch of big name players who believe they’re already there and it’s more difficult to keep these players lit. It will be great to have more talent but I’m very interested to see how Flores handles these new guys. It’s why I feel that we may not necessarily be looking for the big names but possibly more unsung talent. In other words maybe not Tua or Young. We’ll see.

Merry Christmas

Happy Hannukah

Happy Kwanzaa

Go Dolphins!!!

    Ah, the myth of Andrew Luck again

    I would love to see us land Swift and Helaire. That would add a lot of dynamic play to our running game.

    • manitobafinfan's avatar manitobafinfan says:

      What ya don’t want a Taylor Swift backfield ?? 🤔🤡

      I actually don’t, not that they wouldn’t be good , just too much ammonia for non Phindog fans lol

  3. Wyoming85's avatar wyoming85 says:

    Dobbins with over 100 in the first QT!

  4. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    That was head to head but I wouldn’t have ejected Wade. Penalty yes, ejection no.

  5. Ken's avatar Ken says:

    Trevor Lawrence wow!

    • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

      He’s really impressive. Not sure he can run like that in the NFL, he really throws himself around. But he’s super talented.

      • Ken's avatar Ken says:

        That is what is blowing me away is his mobility. He has the size, he has the arm and he can flat out fly. He is the best athlete on the field. He has unlimited potential as a pro prospect.

  6. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    At this time anyone disagree Burrow and Young are top 2?

  7. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    Wow Simmons

  8. Ken's avatar Ken says:

    This is a ridiculously good game between OSU and Clemson

  9. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    This is the kind of college football I like, good matchups that are equally talented.

  10. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    Ken, we have the luxury with three 1’s and two 2’s to take a chance on a potential franchise QB. So yeah Tua is still a possibility or another QB.

  11. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    That’s the game. Very entertaining game.

  12. Ken's avatar Ken says:

    Great college football game. Great players on both teams making great plays

  13. New Age's avatar New Age says:

    This will probably end up the best game of this season. Amazing battle of two elite programs.

    GO DOLPHINS!!!

  16. bailbondmike's avatar bailbondmike says:

    Great game last night! Will be interesting to see how Burrow/LSU handles those Clemson blitz packages. Also, my second favorite DE/OLB this draft Chaisson and how he contains Lawrence.

  17. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    I probably won’t get to watch most of the game today. We’re hosting a big family Hanukkah party today, having about 25 people over. I’ll have the game on, just won’t have a lot of time to watch it.

  18. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    Krishna – Enjoy Hollywood FLA and Margaritaville. I love being there, it really feels like vacation there.

  19. pheloniusphish's avatar pheloniusphish says:

    Not sold on Tua. I tried. And I’m not sure there’s any QB outside of Burrow that is 1st round worthy.

    Flipping through the channels and Arachnophobia is on. They lead is wearing a Miami Dolphins hat.

  23. bailbondmike's avatar bailbondmike says:

    Phelon, I 100% agree about your QB statement. If a miracle happens and Burrow is there for us, GREAT! If not, I am not looking at QB until, at least, end of second round. Would be great to nab Anthony Gordon in the 3rd just to see how they could develop him.

  24. bailbondmike's avatar bailbondmike says:

    If Burrow, Young and OT Thomas are gone before we pick, I was leaning toward DT Derrick Brown, but after watching CB Jeff Okudah last night, I am convinced he would be my pick at 5 to play opposite X. Those OSU CB’s gave Lawrence fits last night. Of course, the pressure OSU put on him helped the DB’s as well. There are a few other stout DT’s available later in round 1 or 2.

    If you like Superhero stuff, check out ‘The Boys’ on Amazon Prime. That is a great flippin series.

    How is that not pass interference or blocking down field. Yep, refs showing up for Pats. SMH

  35. Ken's avatar Ken says:

    A penalty that would negate a Patriots first down? We have to pick that flag up.

  36. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    Are you allowed to block before the ball is thrown as a WR? Are you allowed to block 11 yds down field? WTF WAS THAT!? How is that not a penalty?

  37. Ken's avatar Ken says:

    Nice job Flores!

  38. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    Good Challenge!

  39. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    There is still a lot of talk going on about that penalty

    SSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    I didn’t say this universe

    Kind of nice that our noname D is stymieing the Pat’s offense.

    What would a Tie do to our draft slot? I know it would fuck the Pats almost as much as a loss.

  65. New Age's avatar New Age says:

    Pats fans were calling this a historic defense most of the year. It’s a great defense and we’ve still done a great job of moving on it without a running game. Get some fatties to stop the run and help it and we should surprise a ton of people next year. Team is super impressive today. Great coaching.

    Loving this game but it’s almost as fun seeing the Bengals destroying Cleveland,

  72. bailbondmike's avatar bailbondmike says:

    Damn, lets give Brady 5 min to find a receiver why don’t we. SMH

  73. bailbondmike's avatar bailbondmike says:

    There’s a legion of Dolphin fans that think that falling from 5 to 7 in the draft is going to be the difference between being a contender and 7-9
