They are behind in games in the division…no way, imo
What you’re saying is they can be 2-4 in division and their 3 wins were against us, and we can be 4-2 in division and they’re ahead of us….I don’t think so
2 wins
TO BREAK A TIE WITHIN A DIVISION
If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined.
Two Clubs
Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs)
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division
Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference
Thanks for verifying my point! We have more division wins, not identical at all…1up!
Sorry….wasn’t thinking same won loss record…are we tied with the Jets in won loss?
Thought they were 2-3
Why bother going crazy over who holds the edge after 5 games? There’s 12 more games to go. The whole landscape can change by then. If both Tua and Teddy B are out for a while, we could start falling down some. Hope that’s not the case. As Logen Ninefingers says, “You have to be realistic”
Just looked up…Jets 3-2…overall…but only 1 win in division
We are 2-1 in the division and they are 1-0. Not sure which is technically better in the division race. But then 2nd versus 3rd in the division is just a pride thing isn’t it?
Just fighting the getting shitted on…pointless, I know…lol
Pride? Just trying to understand….
Nothing matters now…lol. 12 more games to go….
I will say too, I was watching the game with a friend and I made the comment, “I don’t even know what the rules are these days.”
How ca there be one set of rules for breaking the plane of the goal line, but a receiver catches the ball with two feet (presumably that breaks the plane) but th gound dislodges it and it’s incomplete…I’m so fucking confused….lol
We were kicking the go ahead FG early in the 4th Quarter, right?
Then another series of mishaps occurred.
It seems like a terrible loss and it is, but only in certain ways.
I’m not sure what that means…we also made so many mistakes to put us in that position….
Did you guys notice how different the offensive formations were today until we were playing catch-up. Whole O was in tight, even the wideouts.
Have to think they were protecting Skylar. Also have to think would have been a most different O with Tua in there.
Our QBs need to be protected! Lol…that’s how they succeed….
A frontal assault on our QBs is not a good….
And, I’m trying to figure out how some of you are not faulting the OL…start with the first play of the game…TBs concussion!!!
It was a missle to the QB….lol
My kind of woman…. she’d fit in well at the Fest based on the last move.
Pretty sure you meant the comedian…right?
Of course. Chugging the beer was a classic move.
It’s what I would have done, even it wasn’t a Guinness….lol
Eagles and 49er’s won. It’s just an all-round shit day.
I had work all day today so I didn’t see the game (happy I didn’t). Saw our
highlightslowlights, read the whole blog, and scouted the box score, but haven’t hit Twitter yet.Holy fuck, Batman, our box score/team stats were very close to what the stej had. Absolutely unreal that it ended up being a blowout, even with our 2 turnovers.
As I’ve stated previously: Skylar Thompson is not yet a Jedi. He may have kicked ass in the preseason against 2s, 3s, and 4s, but he’s not yet ready for the BIG TIME. X missing today’s game had nothing to do with the final result, our entire Defense collapsed in the 4th quarter, albeit aided by a poor Offensive showing (minus Mostert).
These refs had it out for us, don’t like the new concussion rules (somebody thought Teddy looked concussed, yet he did not sustain a concussion), we were down to our 3rd string QB after our first Offense play, and I’m pretty bummed right now like the rest of y’all. *sigh* 😦
Lol…and you didn’t even see the game
Ah! But you guys DID (I trust you guys)! As I said, I read all of your comments, saw the final score and the box score, and saw the highlights.
That gives me a pretty good idea of what occurred today.
Reading this blog is more informative than most think.
I can’t wait to see Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes go down and get taken out of a big game because of this rule, and not be concussed
3-0 with Tua. 0-2 without Tua. He is just a game manager
Krishna,
Here’s something I can pick up on that nobody else stated during the live game (saw it on the highlights). Gesicki picked up a block on the Skyler sack/fumble. The announcer said “good block by Gesicki”, but the pass-rusher drove Gesicki back into Skyler (it was a BAD block!).
And I haven’t even watched the game yet and have yet to go on to Twitter.
Gesicki is in trouble with this team.
Not too shabby an observation for not having watched the game, wouldn’t ya say?
And I just spent the last hour watching Mark Levin.
Mike Gesicki 2022: 5 games, 9 catches, 101 yards, 1 TD.
This is killing me!
Gesicki is capable of those stats in a single game!!!
Hill in a walking boot after the game
Dammit, SMH.
Dolphins open up at home as 3 point dogs to the Vikings.
I sure hope Tua is available for the game, because our suspect defense and bottom 3 of the league special teams aren’t putting this team on their backs.

M13, not sure if you have followed this show. I have not but might go back and watch from beginning. Seems more cinematic than when on regular TV. Also has most of original characters. Besides, I always thought Jeri Ryan was hot in her own unique way.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/see-the-enterprise-f-just-unveiled-by-star-trek-picard/ar-AA12KJjJ?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=baf7597aaa824e8b8794001183058147

As a HUGE fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation, I’ve been tempted to watch it. However, I don’t subscribe to that streamer (Paramount+, is it?). I’ve heard nothing but VERY poor reviews regarding “Picard”, but I’ll eventually check it out.
Jeri Ryan is ALWAYS hot! She’s like a modern-day Yvonne Craig [RIP (Batgirl and the sexy green alien in the original Star Trek series)] when it comes to sci-fi, IMO.
Thanks for sharing!
I’m streaming tonight’s game and I’ve got a Spanish broadcast… I can understand about 33% of what they’re saying what with how quickly they’re talking. And to me, that’s worth at least 100% better than listening to Cris Collinsworth! LOL
NICE win, Ravens! Hopefully, that plays into our hands down the road.
Eff it! I woke up to this stinking pile of garbage. Shows our depth level is just not there. Hope Tua gets back next week but to quote Ken…he’s only a game manager.😜
So with identical records, no matter who wins the division or conference, the first tie breaker is head to head….no matter what else. Thank you.
Yes, but head to head only counts, when it’s head to head, unless everyone tied has played each other
I don’t get the talk of head to head in division play early in the season
Yeah we have it on Buffalo, but we still would have to win in Buffalo for it to mean anything, same goes for the jets with us
I’m trying to figure out why those that saw the game and watched our QBs getting destroyed on the field yesterday aren’t placing blame on the OL…
The first play of the game on O, Bridgewater got blasted. The second play on O, Skylar got blasted….and it was like that almost all day…🤷♂️
Armstead went out of this game pretty quick, he wasn’t right. He didn’t practice all week, as he’s been doing the whole season, but I guess his toe was especially bad this week. This day was fucked as far as sports are concerned, the Mets decided not to show up for the rubber game 3 of their playoff series, and the Dolphins lost to the Jets. That’s a bad day right there.
I know Mack Hollins wasn’t a great WR, but we miss him on ST’s. I think Fejedelem was another good STer, he’s injured.
He was back yesterday
Mike…those 2 are key STs as you said. I see where CF was activated of whatever list he was on so maybe this week to resume. MH is a big mistake letting him go. I don’t know who we have that can replace him. Any suggestions? Oh, MH is doing very nicely as a WR with the Raiders.
We definitely need to stop giving up big chunks on kick and punt returns.
We need sacks and turnovers
The one thing that stands out to me about our defense is the front 7 are just not getting to the QB. None of the DL, and none of the LB’s have been getting to the QB at all. You can understand that offenses have found ways to combat the zero blitzes, but why neither Ogbah, Wilkins, Davis, Phillips, Baker, and the exception of Ingram who has been the best of the bunch, can’t get pressure or hit or sack the QB, is frustrating. You figured those guys like Ogbah and Phillips would pick up where they left off and maybe do better. They’re basically invisible right now.

I sure hope Tua is available for the game
He will not be. They are going to continue to punish us for NOT BREAKING THE RULES but being the target of the MOB who want’s our blood.
That call to eliminate Teddy from the game was BS and was blatant overreach by the league to be punitive.
They are not done with us yet. I will bet Tua doesn’t play next week.
Everyone’s favorite whooping girl MTG is being censored by the left, for calling Biden Hitler
How quick they forget how many of them did the same to Trump
isn’t that “whipping”?
Our D only plays well, when we have good one on one coverage, which allows the Cover-0 to thrive, otherwise big chunks is what will happen, allowing crap QBs like Wilson to look great
Our DC needs to design a successful game plan
based on more than just cover 0.
Jest was a trap game in the classic sense.
They have lost to us so much recently that they had a lot of built up motivation.
It was on the road.
We had significant injuries.
I think of it as similar in all those ways to Buffalo losing to us earlier in the season.
They have a lot of new rookies that no one has much tape on.
The refs and league concussion guy in the booth had it in for us as payback for us using a concussed player to win a game.
PLUS:
Saleh knows McDaniel’s ways better than anybody outside of SF.
There are still only 6 teams with a better W-L than we have.
Listening to that presser, the coaches seem somewhat disappointed at the lack of takeaways.
Also, sounds like Armstead will already be out for the next game.
Getting Armstead through a full season has always been the problem with him. When healthy he is a stud
Also trap game or not, injuries or not bottom line we needed to make more plays and commit fewer penalties. We could have won this game. No excuses
Oh I did not mean those were excuses.
We have to get a better pass rush.
We have to scheme something to take the pressure off Hill and Waddle to do it all.
We have to tackle better.
We have to stop making multiple errors in the ST game.
At least we are not the Panthers. They just fired their HC
Mike e, I agree. I’d say our defense has been the biggest disappointment this year. It seems they regressed. Hopefully they can get better later in the season like they did last year.
Bunch of dispirited unhappy bloggers around here! I don’t think I have ever seen a 3.5 hour period without a post!
I am discouraged to levels not felt in years after the high of the early season.
I am looking forward to seeing you guys, but I don’t even want to go to the game at this point!
Stand the fuck up
“Receiver Tyreek Hill downplayed a foot injury sustained late in Sunday’s game. And his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said on his weekly WSVN-7 segment on Sunday night that “in all likelihood, he will be fine for the Vikings game.”
Well that game sucked. Besides a poor performance the injuries are really starting to pile up. Then I got to see the Mets get knocked out of the playoffs. Real shitty sports weekend. But had a great time with some friends.
Ok.
so.
Guys.
Did the Bills or Ravens or even patsies cave in their season after we beat them?
If we win out, we’ll be 15-2.
I don’t remember.
Did anyone here pick us that high, preseason? Maybe Phel or Piggs.
I thought we would lose 6 games.
So the players and the coaches must dig down and
find ways to not lose like they did the last two games.
So do we.
Well even as much as everyone likes Skylar Thompson he’s still a 3rd string QB who showed he needs some seasoning so that could hurt us as long as he has to play. The injuries to some key players also doesn’t help. But we do have to battle through it if we want to have a good season.
hey btw
about the Fest …
We’ll be arriving in the afternoon Friday.
When are y’all getting there?
We’ll be driving 2+ hours across the Everglades
(think Highway Hypnosis)
so we’ll be in the mood to party
around (not in) the pool and
then go out to eat supper and
then out to drink at a late night bar.
Where will we be able to connect up?
That’s normally Tunes with the Dog, but haven’t heard much from him on that. Folks will be on Hollywood Beach regardless. I suspect either wherever that happens or Margarittville, where a number of folks stay.
Ken has your contact info? He’s setting up a group text.
Not sure if this has been discussed already.
Tom Pelissero @TomPelissero
The NFL and NFLPA announce they agree concussion protocols were properly applied with Tua Tagovailoa on Sept. 25, but that those protocols — now modified — were insufficient. Joint statement:
Skylar had a passer rating of 58.4. I actually thought he looked better than that. Was a tough spot to be thrown into. Can see him as a solid #2 down the road.
He threw a lot of passes late. It looked to me that he struggled reading the defense. But it was his first RS game so I’m going to write him off or anything.
Guess depends on how you look at. He looked liked a NFL QB. Not so bad for a number three.
Just going by what I saw. He looked unsure and then you could see some throws were late especially outside. I did not see a big arm either. Adequate though.
One of the cool things that happened being at the game is my friend and I met Christian Wilkins’ older brother. Looks just like him, not as big but very much in shape. He also played college ball but Division III as a LB and FB. Very cool dude.
M13, Seahawks RB Rashaad Penny to miss rest of 2022 season after fracturing fibula vs. Saints
Feel bad for him.
OUCH! That’s terrible to hear, man. I wish him well in his recovery.
From Masala:
“the Dolphins have released defensive lineman Big Kat Bryant and cornerback Chris Steele from the practice squad. With the two open spots, Miami has signed cornerback Tino Ellis and defensive lineman Jaylen Twyman.”
Minnesota Vikings

INJURIES
RB Ty Chandler broke his thumb in Sunday’s win over the Bears and could be out for several weeks, coach Kevin O’Connell announced Monday.
S Lewis Cine (broken leg) returned to the Vikings facility today and is in good spirits, per O’Connell.
So DL Jaylen Twyman was just released from the Vikings on 10/4/22.
At 6-2 300 he’s very strong 40 reps but also ran in the 5.39 range. Was a 2021 6th round pick.
I think he is strictly a trench guy. He did put up some sack numbers in college though.
Yeah and a depth player.
This dropped 5 hours ago. Country music coupled with Snoop Dogg.
FWIW, I’ve never been a fan of Snoop Dogg, but that’s neither here nor there.
I like a good number of Justin’s songs. Some I like are more because of what is in the video. This will probably fall in that category. Snoop didn’t seem to fit, not believable. Something like that.
Good for Justin though. He needed to up his clout. Seems he had hit a plateau for a couple years.
His album last year wasn’t all bad. Maybe he is getting ready to drop a new one.
I cannot express enough how our weakness is defending outside runs. Yeah, there were a handful of times Breece Hall (and Michael Carter in the redzone) gouged us inside for a few positive yards, but not many times nor for extravagant yards.
Our Defense let us down yesterday, and X being out was not the reason. It’s not as though little Zach Wilson carved us up through the air. Subtract the fortunate Breece Hall reception for 79 yards (probably miscommunication on our D), and he was worse than PEDESTRIAN: 131 yards in 4 quarters.
Our pass-rush is absolutely horrific this year.
I think the defense has been average at best most of the time and not what I expected as well. Tackling has been sub par.
Right on regarding our tackling… it’s extremely sub-par.
Too much grabby attempts and not enough hitting and wrapping up. We have missed ending the play for little gain all season and that has to be corrected.
And for the record, we outrushed the stej yesterday 137-135.
Again, look at the box score… it was damn near equal in every facet.
That should NEVER equal a 40-17 blowout.
We made a lot of mistakes and were bad in situational football. At one point I thought we were getting settled in and taking over the game and then the missed FG to go up 20-19 gave the momentum back to the Jets and we fell apart.
YUP! Even Coach McDaniel noted in his presser today that THAT was when everything went to hell… after the missed FG. It was as though the whole team decided to take the rest of the day off.
I didn’t know McDaniel said that but that’s the kind of thing he’s been preaching since he came here; I want to see how the team deals with adversity. They didn’t do that well in this game.
I’ll also give credit to the Jets, they played well and they’re very young. We didn’t match their intensity.
The safety was a farce as was the “observed wobble” that gave them the first two points. The next three points was directly given to them by the referees with back-to-back facemask penalties. In The replay of the second facemask penalty you can see a Jets player turning a dolphins player helmet sideways so he’s looking out the ear hole but they called a penalty on us for a nonexistent facemask. There were two flagrant blocks in the back during one of their kick returns that were not called. This game was stolen from the Dolphins by the league. Period.
It did have a feel of a home field advantage but I don’t think we played very well with the exception of a few players here and there.
The face mask on Ingram was legit. The one on Davis was kind of ticky tack but his hand was up around the helmet. Both calls are not the reason why we lost
I agree and neither Davis or Ingram had to go to the helmet or face mask on those plays. Those are the kind of mistakes that lead to points they might not have gotten.
I thought if our D and STs played a good game, we would have won. Neither played well, imo….
And, if one play from scrimmage carries the yard total, isn’t that the one play you never want to happen….lol
So you failed…lol…only on one play though…whatever
Breece Hall looks the part. That guy could become one of the top bell cow RBs in the league sooner than later. That was the player that worried me the most that the Jets landed in the draft.

+100000000000000
And as it has turned out so far, Teddy was NOT concussed. The league decided to shaft us.
The new rules have given the NFL more power to rig games.
Say a player like A-Rod gets sacked, but it was a foot injury. He stumbles due to the injury, now he gets ruled out for the rest of the game because maybe he sustained a concussion when his helmet hit the ground (happens on ALL sacks).
Now upon a sack, QBs are going to be more prone to NOT allow their helmet to hit the ground… which makes them even MORE susceptible to major injury when somebody hits them.
I’ve thought about that but once they’re forced to be consistent with the new rule they’re going to find themselves in trouble taking top players out of the game. They’re already under a microscope. Won’t be easy to do.
It was a weird and unfortunate play. Not why we lost.
See above… not saying that’s why we lost. I think the league has once again fucked up.
DID ANY OF YOU see the brief analysis the Sunday Night crew did on the Bengals COMPLETELY CHANGING their O-Line during the off-season?? Burrow suffered more sacks last season than any other NFL QB . –Somehow,Cincy STILL GOT TO THE SUPER BOWL and NEARLY WON IT!! But, unlike Miami, the Bengals went right to work and replaced their entire O-Line with, I believe, 4 free agents and 1 draft choice. The difference has been noticeable. Fewer sacks, better running game, and Burrow’s still standing upright with NO CONCUSSIONS!!!
——————————-
GOTTA WONDER IF ANYONE from Miami’s Front Office even watched this game. Sure as HELL, they’ll do nothing meaningful this week, despite the fact that, as usual, Armstead is injured and likely WON’T be ready for the Vikings. AFTER GETTING QB#1 and QB#2 concussed, you’d think our head coach would be screaming to the FO to “Get me some help in the O-LINE!!!”
——————————
REST ASSURED, Coach, your wishes have fallen on deaf (and STUPID) ears!
Joe Burrow is tied for 4th most sacked at 18 where Tua has been sacked 6 times tied at 27th least sacked. I know he’s missed 1.5 games but your conclusion on the Bengals OL is not accurate. None of what they did has been very good. They’re also 2-3.
TIM–it wasn’t my conclusion. It was the network’s. I’d trade Cicy’s front line for ours in a heart beat. AND THAT’s MY CONCLUSION!! IF YOU THINK our line is a lot better than Cincy’s you certainly are welcome to your opinion.
What networks? So you don’t believe in numbers? It’s not your conclusion but then it is your conclusion?
It’s not my opinion, those are the facts. Your assessment of the Cincy OL and Burrow are inaccurate. They’re struggling.
You can’t take one or another questionable play that hurt Tua and blame the FO and the entire OL. You don’t like Ross and Grier and that’s apparent. Tua made a mistake with the hit he took in Cincy. He was in the clear on a bootleg and readjusted back to the pocket and he got caught and thrown down hard. The OL was not to blame on that play or being pushed down against the Bills on a roughing the passer call.
17 points isn’t saying much, for sure.
Chop block they just called on Raiders was awful
Go Chiefs
TONIGHT’s CHIEFS-RAIDERS game could be a real crowd pleaser. Lotsa points and entertaining football is what I’m expecting
—————-
Tomorrow the NHL season lid lifter features the Tampa Bay Lightning at the New York Rangers! REALLY,REALLY, looking forward to it! HOCKEY IS BACK!!!
YOU READY for some hockey, Steve??
Game 2 tomorrow is VGK vs Kings
Yeah, especially how Fins are playing without Tua
Old Dolfan,
The hit that supposedly left Teddy “concussed” came from a CB blitz… nothing the O-Line could have done about it, man. Perhaps we should have left a RB in to chip the blitz, but it had nothing to do with our O-Line.
KEEP TELLING YOURSELF that when our next QB goes down.
But it’s not on the O-Line when Dawner and Blitzen do a surgical strike on us from the Defensive secondary.
Remember when Brandon Jones sacked lil’ Zach Wilson yesterday? NOTHING their O-Line could do would have stopped it.
Now do NOT get me wrong! I think our O-Line should be far better than it currently is, but it’s already MUCH better than last year. Allow them to gel and I think it’s going to be manageable.
YES, you and I definitely thought Terron Armstead’s chronic injuries were a mistake for the $$$ we spent on him.
Thinking about PFF stats for rushing the passer
They might be better off just watching a game and using their perception
For example, yesterday anyone watching Parsons can see he’s a great pass rusher
I said he’s the next LT and so far those of us who thought that have been right. 😉
You and MF13, he was all in
Yep! A few others liked him a lot too.
This game is like the Pro Bowl tackling, it’s already cost KC. 7 pts
On the last drive on 3rd down the catch on Raiders side of field was well short, instead of just tackling him, they pushy footed around, giving time for the OL to push him 5 yards forward, .asking it 4th and 1, which went 58 yard td
Both sacks in game neither team took the QB to ground
I posted a Fins video a couple of weeks ago, someone responded, what is he like 10 years old
IDK, but he could be the Chiefs baby faced kicker
Do you think with the new concussion standards/protocol, do you think teams will start having 3 QBs active for games?
That was a total mess of a question but I think you can decipher. 😂
Yes
Yes it was a mess and you could decipher or yes to 3 QBs? 😂
Ooops, 3 QBs. We’re already seeing it.
No, I think it’ll be reeled in a bit, after the over compensated Betty debacle
And as a result of that debacle I see Tua starting Sunday, if possible, meaning if it’s up to us and Tua he plays
Thinking like belicheat
On a kickoff, the deep man puts his arms out to side to indicate a fair catch, but the back judge doesn’t blow his whistle until the ball hits the ground
So what if you were kicking off against the wind and kicked it high and deep, the wind hangs the ball up and your coverage man catches it? Is it a TD?
Was a bit noisy in the house.. KC got hosed on that NON Turnover .. did they also get flagged for roughing passer on the play ??
Saw replays now … WOW they screwed the pooch on that one
Didn’t see it, but did see a phantom chop block early, and a phantom D holding on a missed FG, they turned into a TD
Yep they’re reading us
I’ve been saying at the end of games up 7 you should always go for 2, to go up 2 scores
KC didn’t get it, but they did it right
Now Raiders 2 pt try was asinine, because if you make it, now you’ve put KC in 4 down territory for the entire drive, if you miss, probably going to lose
Booth crew said, the analytics say go for 2
I think PFF is providing the analytics
After all that Raiders with the ball down 1 with chance to win
NFL has no balls or transparency
That other spring league they had a mike on during replay
I’d be pissed, if Josh McDaniels was our coach
Did you know our D ranks in the bottom 5 of most categories….
….is that bending or is it broken?
Schad tweeted these Krishna:
The Dolphins are 23rd in the NFL in team sacks per game, 30th in QB pressure percentage and 29th in QB knockdowns. How is that possible with Phillips, Ingram, Van Ginkel, Ogbah, Wilkins, Sieler, Baker, Holland, Jones?
Miami is blitzing 21.4 percent of downs, 13th in the NFL. Last year it was 39.6 percent, 2nd in the NFL. They’re trying to protect CBs with injuries to Byron and X.
He puts it all down to injuries – maybe there’s a sprinkling of Flores in there too? One thing’s for sure, this D philosophy works with the right personnel, but looks less good with back-ups in.
Rematch Jan 8. If we’re healthy, I expect revenge living up to it’s reputation as a dish best served cold.
The way Tua was slammed should have been another. He could have just pulled him down, but he used everything he had to whip he around and drive him into the ground. You could tell that dude wanted to purposely hurt Tua.
With this new protocol, 5 players were put on concussion protocol in Sunday’s games. That’s what I found so far. There may have been more.
Our defense has given up 131 points in 5 games. That is worse than 6 out of the 8 last place teams in every division.
Last year, I would be like, OK they are just on the field to long. Can’t use that this year. Our offense has been moving the ball and scoring points. Offense is currently tied for 12th in scoring offense.
Any news on Tua?
Should be a National Holliday!
I still got his football card.
The NFL has changed over the years, back in the 70s, when I first started watching the advantages were done at a team/player level, for example whatever it was the Steelers were doing with steroids
Today the advantages they give teams seem to come from a greed/money standpoint
We see it in scheduling, and calls on the field at just the right time as needed, we see it in suspensions
The last 2 SB winners were hand picked to be in the game, because of tv ratings that accursed during the season and the fact that the game was in their stadium
Many people believe the networks have a say in who they want to win certain games
Hard to believe calls like our Betty safety play are totally on the level, let alone the non PI called against the Rams vs Saints a few years back, that prompted the PI instant replay review rule change
The NFL does what they do to maximize revenue
Thanks Wyo! Sucks though. I wonder what the reason is he can’t resume football activities. Are they doing brain scans, MRI’s?
Stanger Need a way to send you ticket money. Not going to be able to make the Fest. Mike has my contact info.
What about D&B?
Was really looking forward to meeting ya
That sucks Phelon. I may be able to sell your ticket. Krishna was asking if there was an extra one recently.
Let’s be sure pp is out
He says he is. Have to trust his word.
Rankings on O or D can be misleading, in our case the yards we’ve given up has been influenced by Jones and X injuries, tough schedule to start, Tua and Betty protocols
Sure we’ve sucked on D in yardage, but have come up big at crucial times first 3 games
Once Jones, X and Tua get back on the field I expect we’ll see our real D, a D good enough to win when the O does their thing, like we saw the first 3 weeks
Yeah, was waiting for that to happen last game but they didn’t come through.
Tulsi Gabbard announces she is leaving the Democratic Party.
I think she just got hotter! lol
She’s been “out” for a while now, after what they did to her for using “facts”
So, gotta figure if Tua isn’t practicing by Thursday, we’ll be starting Teddy ‘I can’t see a free blitzer even when I spin around and he’s in my field of vision‘ Bridgewater
It’s funny how everyone in finance is telling you what to look for, in a bottom to the bear market, because historically…
Until the next big event hits, like US in WWIII officially, or unemployment skyrocketing…
Crazy
and who was that guy?
and where does he live?
My guess it was a Dolphins fan who thought he was doing us a favor. Poor Teddy. Must be his personality but just doesn’t seem like he has any fire in him. Like he is doing this just to have fun and play a sport and make tons of money.
wow
Where exactly is the stumble? What a crock of shit.
There’s no stumble, but I do see him slightly shaking off the cobwebs
Dude he got blasted up into his rib cage under his arm….are you fucking kidding me?! It’s football….and absolutely NO evidence of a concussion…geez, loueez!
I’ll be honest, I wasn’t exactly mad that Bridgewater got taken out. I really wanted to see Skyler.
Obviously I regret it after the fact. And him being removed by a spotter based on that video is pretty unreal.
Part of me wanted to see Skylar but the other part of me felt safer with a vet.
I am still enraged by the “UNC” calling Teddy a no go after witnessing Ataxia. There was no stumble there was no Ataxia. There was a Jets fan pretending to be a Doctor watching TV like the rest of us that unilaterally decided to put Teddy in the protocol for a FUCKING WEEK when it was a BS call to begin with.
I am willing to bet$1000 right now that UNC has a NY accent!
Now there is going to have to be training for player on how NOT to react after a tackle.
1. Do not adjust your facemask even if your helmet slipped and is sitting uncomfortably. Leave it until you are in the huddle.
2. Do NOT shake your head or touch your head. Do not wipe dirt out of your eyes.
3. Do NOT get up from the ground until / unless you are stable (can breath, if the wind got knocked out, etc)
Otherwise YOU WILL BE SITTING FOR A WEEK.
Meanwhile, the league is treating this like a QB rule. it’s NOT. Just this weekend I saw 5-6 guys that should have been pulled from the game if the same rules were applied to them as was apply to Teddy. INCLUDING the Milf Hunter on the play where he dove for the TD that wasn’t a TD. (Fumbled before breaking the plane)
It’s going to take a lawsuit by a fan saying, I came to see Tua play and you removed him from the game for no reason
Wait, so are you saying Teddy can’t practice this week because of that crap?
holy crap, unreal
milf hunter?
lol
ahh, Wilsom, I remember now…

Well I have never worked on a truck and I’m never worried about getting in…lol
How about this defensive holding on a fg attempt by Raiders #51…
This gave the Chiefs a 1st down and allowed them to score a TD that ended up being the game winner.
That is after the ridiculous roughing call called against the Chiefs earlier in the game, where the defender strip sacked the QB and has the ball, then gets called for roughing the passer, even though the defender was technically the guy getting tackled since he had possession.
I mentioned earlier the FG call and a chop block called on Raiders
NFL manipulates games, that’s a fact jack
I didn’t watch the game last night, that’s a pretty crazy call. Defensive holding on a fg hasn’t been called since 2015, and THIS is when they call it?
Pretty hard to argue it isn’t manipulation…
I stopped watching cheats games, especially SBs, because fan interest = that team getting calls
When Dallas was America’s team they got Pat’s kind of calls
If money isn’t directly changing hands on a game the NFL is allowed legally to manipulate them
The networks paying 10B for the rights to broadcast games, go to the league and say we’d like this team to advance, the NFL does what they can to accommodate them
Jags vs Cheats AFC Championship, you think the PIs cheats got before the half leading to TDs was on the level, or Rams vs Saints NFC Championship game?
Kong, yeah, Teddy is in the protocol. He cannot practice until at least Thursday even though he was not diagnosed with a concussion. The NFL just gave themselves another tool to manipulate outcomes.
They were all very upset with the Dolphins doing well the first quarter of the year. It was “unnatural” so they have fixed it.
I’m stunned. Exactly like you said above, one guy, who is not a doctor, can unilaterally take a team’s most important player out of a whole game and mess with his practice the whole next week based on absolutely nothing.
un-effing-believable
“Cornerback Byron Jones – who had surgery in his Achilles/ankle injury in March – is still not ready to practice this week, per McDaniel.”
Stanger:
Orange parking lot for Fest? Captain Stubbs was seeking confirmation
Orange it is. Might not end up being same section, but same general area as last year.
This new concussion protocol already has a lot of flaws. It doesn’t seem to be consistent.
Why does it have to be a spotter making this call, some rando? Why not keep the change about gross motor instability, and if either the team doctor or the UNC review the video and make the call there was ataxia, then the player is out for the game and goes into concussion protocol?
It’s not that fucking hard. Why does the NFL always have to do shit the wrong way?
The spotter can make the call that the play needs to be reviewed by the two doctors, if needed.
