Post-Game Thread: Dolphins hang tough but fall to Pats

A loss is a loss. But I'm very proud of how the Dolphins stuck with the Patriots. We all know that the Pats are the more talented team. But this Dolphins team played right with them. So let's not get too frustrated here.
The Patriots did win 27-17. But I'm not hanging my head at all.
As far as Ted Ginn goes, lay off him. Yes, he dropped that nice 4th down pass form Henne. But we should all know by now that Teddy isn't going to make that catch. In fact, no Dolphins' receiver is probably making that catch. That's the biggest need right now - a true number one, go-to receiver who will make those big catches.
Oh - and Brian Hartline dropped a pass on what would have been a big pass completion two plays earlier. And Davone Bess had a couple of drops himself. So don't single out Ginn.
That's all I'll say for now. Use this thread to discuss the game. Please don't create a new fanpost just to write a few sentences about today's game - that's what this post is for. So keep all of the talk about today's game in this thread.
My usual recap post will follow tonight.

I agree Henne really needs to start making better decesions he threw a couple in some tight coverage
but he is still young and having the wr’s that we have sure dont help in his cause either

You will have to throw it in tight coverage
Marino used to do it all the time. And like Marino, Henne has the arm strength to do it and get away with it as long as he is accurate with his throws…..which he was today.

I though Henne played a solid game
I don’t think the OC helped him much. He called a fairly vanilla game when Henne was under center. But i liked his arm strength, his decision making, and his accuracy is getting better.

Not bad
We did pretty good, not the healthiest showing we’ve seen all season, but at least we didn’t just sit there and let them pull a Tennessee on us.
Season gets easier from here until Pitts/NE again. And we’ve got em at home for Orange out. Suck it up and hope for a wild card. After all, we DID win the division 11-5.

Come on guys...
Be easy on the flames. We played the patriots well, on the road, after a bye week. Give them some love. I know it was a must win game, and it was huge to be 4-4, but that didn’t happen. Wipe that shitty look of your face and be proud about something.

And he has been since game one
Sure, he’s not going to burn anyone down field, but he seems to be in a position to make a catch on almost every passing play, but Henne never seems to look for him.

You guys are crazy
We been rehabbing him. He comes in and has been giving Henne an incredible 3rd down conversion rate in second halves.
Today was the first game we started him since the injury. He looks good and Henne is definitely looking for him… Still Bess is still getting some undeserved plays that would have better chances in Greg’s hands.

Wassup with bess? How did he do. I mean last year i was proclaiming him to be the Black wes welker. I am out to sea on deployment so keeping up with my favorite receiver is tough. How has he been doing? I’ve read he isnt doing as hot this year as last. What seems to be the problem?
by esco6781 on Nov 8, 2009 7:55 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
He's had a lot of trouble holding onto the ball this year
I think he’s having some confidence issues
by rroan28 on Nov 8, 2009 7:57 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Really?
how is that, I mean last year he beasted for an undrafted rookie. Do you think its because maybe Chad Henne doesnt put enough touch on the ball?
by esco6781 on Nov 8, 2009 8:19 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
No, it's not that
Once you start dropping passes as a WR, it affects your psyche. You become more self-aware and think too much rather than letting it come to you naturally
Now it’s spreading to other parts of his game too. See the fumble against N.O., and the muffed punt last week.

I have no problem admitting that NE is a good team.
It wasn’t too long ago that NE was in the pits, a lot of the older fans like Slot Machine remember the lean years. It’s the “Nation” complex that happened when they started winning SBs and the Sox finally won that created the insufferable Boston fans.

Overall
With a first-year starting quarterback, with no receiving corps to speak of, and with three rookies in the secondary, we were still in the game until the final minutes, against the winningest team of the decade.
It sucks to lose, but it’s not like we lost to the Bucs or anything.

Exactly
When I see the Packers play, I can’t help but think of the decision the Dolphins made in last year’s draft with Jake Long over Matt Ryan. A good QB behind a shitty O-Line is worthless. Rodgers is going to get killed. Brett Favre is lucky he got the hell out of there. And the Packers could have drafted Michael Oher this year but didn’t. I’m sure they regret that now.

What happend with our running game. NE was supose to suck against the run and they stopped R&R.
Vontae is Mosses bitch that stiff arm was sick, our secondary will be good sooner than later
I now AGREE that we have the worst WR corp in the NFL i was delussional for a while its official they suck

Pat's fan here...
I don’t think anyone should have been surprised with them playing the run how they did. It’s the same every week- the defense tries to take away one of their most important players and forces them to attempt and play without them. This time, it was Ronnie Brown. That forced Chad to try and make the plays (which he did early on), but they eventually got him timing down and were able to disrupt his passes.
And I wouldn’t be too hard on Vontae. He got that pick on Moss early on and I thought it was going to be a long day. You’re going to have a STRONG defense in a year or two.
I won’t disagree with you, though, that you need a stud receiver. That was painfully evident.
Good game, though. I was nervous until the final 4 minutes. The WildPat attack is going to be awesome if Pat can create a relationship with his receivers. All he did was create space when he handled the ball.

Vontae did great
He was up against one of the best WRs in the game today. Yeah, Moss got the best of him a couple times, but Vontae stuck with him all day. Can’t ask for anything more than that. You can’t stop Moss, you can only hope to lessen the damage he does.

Also...
The Patriots were only able to run because the Phin Coaching deemed it more necessary to stop the passing game (which I agree with). I expected a little more from our TEs and from our 3rd and 4th WRs. We didn’t utilize our offensive weapons as much as I would have liked, but our running game was able to work so I shouldn’t complain.
Basically: Phins did a good job of stopping/slowing the pass attack, but that opened up running lanes for Maroney.
by The Hill on Nov 8, 2009 7:59 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
When you have that many weapons on offense...
It spreads the field and allows the damage to come on multiple sides. I’ve always thought the best thing to keep a defense honest is a draw play from a 4-5 WR set. It makes them respect the play action that much more, and can create separation down the field.
Miami went all in on trying to shut down the pass, and it caused them to lose out on the run game. You’re not going to stop the Pats passing game completely, it’s hard to do. When you allow the run game to get going too, it’s pretty much a death knell.
by rroan28 on Nov 8, 2009 9:25 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Ronnie
was almost certainly going to get neutralized, I agree. That’s just what Belichick does, attack the opposing teams strength. And I was really proud of how others guys stepped up. We all know we need a receiver—maybe Turner is the guy?—and we are all pretty hyped about our corners.
I also want to say that I love it when we play the pats. Not living in S. Florida anymore I’ve usually been at a bar watching the game, and there are usually pats fans there, and it’s always a lot of fun. It’s a heated rivalry, to be sure, but never mean-spirited and always competitive. Good sports, and I can’t wait for the rematch.

I don't think that they stopped our running game
I think that the OC just didn’t man up and force the ball down the Pats throats. I mean when you are only down by 7 to start the 4th Qtr, why did you abandon your bread and butter? Why did we hardly run it out of our base formation? IMO the play calling should be a 60-40 split in favor of running. Ronnie should carry the ball 20 times every game, with RIcky getting about 10-15 carries plus a couple screen passes.

Why would you throw to ginn in a crucial down when you know he won’t make the catch?? And what do you mean lay off ginn Matty I ? The clown is a 9th overall pick and even if he caught the ball we might have still lost but his drop ended the game so yeah ride his ass again and bench the guy and only let him return kicks and punts so hopefully he can return another and get some kind of value in the trade market. Camarillo or Bess should have been called on the fourth down. On a positive spin the rookies at corner are learning and a new war between Moss and Davis will be fun to watch as Moss gets older and vontae gets better. Thanks again blowhio state for another game lost by Teddy bear he straight dropped that pass by fear of being hit! Go Phins Go Gators phuck all you haters.

You don't have time to think...
You see someone with seperation (a rarity for a fins receiver) and the get the ball out of there before you get sacked again. It was a tough catch but very catchable. I think it was thrown harder than Ginn is used to catching, especially after getting used to catching CP10 passes.
by Vanman_FishFan13 on Nov 9, 2009 1:27 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
So, most people seem to be giving the wide receivers a pass here because they aren't #1 receivers
But there’s the problem. Their only job is to catch the ball and run towards the goal line, so I find it perplexing to see so many drops from guys who supposedly play the wide receiver position. The Phins have to address this, or we may never be able to win a close game again…

Anyone that thinks he is to blame for this game really needs to go back and watch it again. The coaching is more to blame for his loss than any single player. The WRs definitely played the worst of all positions. If Hartline makes the catch, it’s a first down and Ginns drop doesn’t matter. There were several key drops throughout the game.

That was a tough pass....
Just the location alone makes it difficult….now…add the fact that it was a laser throw, and you can see by Ginns reaction (late) that the ball was a rocket and slightly behind him. It is hard to turn your body behind you, but even harder on a laser throw.
Just want to point out again, that Hartline’s drop was a much easier catch and if he would have converted, it would have been a 1st down and Ginn’s drop doesn’t “lose” the game as Doberman believes. So using that arguement, you could say that Hartline lost the game.
Reality is that no single player lost the game. It was a good effort for the most part but we shouldn’t have been in that position anyways. If we would have had better play calling offensively and put more pressure on the QB defensively we probably wouldn’t have been in that situation.

I hope you are right! Camarillo and Bess are good enough possession receivers if we were to get a true number one we would be looking good.

Honestly it was probably Henne's decision...
I remember earlier in the game the announcers were talking about how Henne goes to Henning to tell him what plays he feels comfortable with before the game and they go off those.
But then again I have no real idea who does what down there.

He said Henne give the 7 or 8 plays he is most comfortable with
But you are absolutely correct Doberman, we under utilize the screen pass to both RBs. They are both great pass catchers coming out of the backfield and Ricky has really looked good this year catching the few passes coming his way. That is a nice thing to have with a young qb!

We have ALL SORTS of young talent on our team, an awesome young LINE the best RB tandem in football and a good smart young QB.
We are heading up and that is why we stay positive.
The jets have aging, shittalkers led by their pompous head coach and do the same thing every year… start hot and fade away.

But thats like saying when you control the clock for 3 quarters of the game, you should win, or when you only have a little over a 100 yards of offense you will lose. I think the Jets and Fins wind up with 8-8 records at best.

Turning Point
Hey Matty, for tommorrow’s write-up, I nominate the the timekeeper’s call at the end of the 1st half as the turning point of the game. Those 3 free points made all the difference. Without them, NE is only up 3 pts after the Moss TD, because they’re would have been no need for a 2 pt convert. Changes everything.

I am not down
We indeed hung in there. Moss had the one big play, and we just don’t have a big time receiver-yet to match that. We play this same team again later in the year, and I wouldn’t count us out of that game either.
To many dropped passes today. Maybe a few too many “tricks” with the wildcat/pat. It seemed we were getting our running game going, and then went to the air, that confused me a bit early in the 4th. We have a good football team that is close to being great. I hate to say it, but….next year we should win some of these tough games.
The pass that Ginn dropped, is not a pass he ever catches.

matty i can see why you are loved. this post, esp the lay off ginn stuff, and the mistakes made by others, the need for a true no. 1, etc. and the fight put up by fins — is exactly my sentiment. i’ve been a fan since 1970. first post to this site, which i more or less admire. some good play calling, and some strange — esp. calls with 3.20 on the clock in the fourth. but creative at other points. pats now have a tough run; we less so, tho we need to finish out the four ‘easy’ games upcoming. that will keep the game on dec. 6 at 8:20.

Am I the only one who thinks the coaching staff blew an opportunity to win this game?
I’m really beginning to question Sparano’s in-game awareness. 3rd & 4 on the Pats side of the field, less than half a quarter left to play…with an offense like New England’s, how is that NOT 4 down territory? You CANNOT give the ball back to them.
One of my biggest pet peeves is coaches waiting UNTIL 4th down to make the decision to go for it. We should’ve made the call to play 4 down ball on 3rd down, then run it twice down their throats with R&R/Polite. It’s a completely different ballgame, playing 3 vs. 4 downs. You need to make the decision early and stick with it. Would’ve been likely to convert, and then…who knows? Coulda run right down to the end of the game and punched it in.
Woulda, coulda, shoulda, I know, but…I’m not the only one who thinks that pass on 3rd & 4 followed by the punt was a serious misstep by Tony, am I?

You CANNOT give the ball back to the patriots at that point in the game. We were down 24-17 with time running out. Thats when we go for it. That was a much more desirable situation than the 4th and 15 that we ended up in. Alotta woulda shouldas like u said.

Deja Vu...
Let me start this off by saying that I am proud of the Miami Dolphins, they hung in tough for really the entirety of the game with a pretty good Patriots squad. With that said, there is ONE thing that is bugging the hell outta me. Why is it that every single time this season when our offense has put together an incredible, time-consuming, draining possession to take the lead in a game, our defense turns right around and craps the bed in less than 5 minutes? WTF is going on? Is it lack of talent, bad coaching, or a mixture of those two? It always seems to happen when we take the lead in the 2nd half. If our defense could at least get a damn 3 & Out on the following drive after we take the lead, we probably have a winning record…
by illmaticone on Nov 8, 2009 6:32 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Probably has a more to do with
Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Tom Brady. Those are three Hall of Fame QB’s. The few times they surrendered leads to the Jets it just felt like more cause of what we’d been watching in these other games.
Our D has statistically outperformed other D’s against these high scoring offences.

Why is our O-line paid so much when they cant even open holes for Ronnie or Ricky?
waste of money when you can spend 5 million and have 5 people from the Biggest Loser play our Linemen
but there is praise to be handed out. Good job to our D-line, they get better every week, the corners were goodish. Vontae was out matched with Moss and NE exploited that very nicely. DC$ is playing very well. and Henne is starting to feel some groove now if only we had people down field who can catch something

Just a couple thoughts
Well, they played as hard as they could. The offense was decent, minus the whole dropping passes scenario. I like this WildPat thing, i hope we get a few more things with that. Also, where was JT and Porter today?? Porter ran his mouth a ton and doesn’t do anything, as usual. Oh, and Vontae Davis looked overall very good, he’ll be great in the future. Henne threw excelent today, most of the incompletions were because they were dropped. I really think we’re a wide receiver away from being a superbowl contender.

I think we need to improve our personnel at linebacker and safety, too
We are doing a poor job of getting to the QB. People will strongly disagree with this, but defensive performances like this make me think we should maybe consider going after Taylor Mays in April.

Cornerback matchup question
I am curious, how did sean Smith play. I have not heard anything about Wes Welker lighting us up. And do you think that Sean Smith would have done a better job covering Randy Moss? I have read on here that they play on sides, as compared to matching up against receivers. Is that true?
by esco6781 on Nov 8, 2009 8:11 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
I don't know about the matching up...
…but Wes isn’t ever going to light any team up. He does his damage underneath, moving the chains, which he did. I don’t think Smith is as physical as Davis on coverage, so I have to say that Davis was their best chance on Moss. The best way to get to him is disrupt him early and mess up his pattern with Brady, which Davis did. I don’t think pure cover corners do well against Moss, but physical, athletic corners who have an eye for the ball do very well.
I’m still on the wagon that thinks Davis is going to be better than Smith, though, so I might seem a little biased.
by The Hill on Nov 8, 2009 9:07 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
It's suprising too that Vontae would be the better matchup..
…because at first glance you would expect to see Smith on Moss because Smith has the size. However, as you said, with a receiver like Moss, you need someone physical.
A cover corner is great, but it doesn’t matter how well you cover Moss, he’s still open. He showed his on the long pass early where Vontae blanketed him and he still got the ball.
by rroan28 on Nov 8, 2009 9:29 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Yep.
Which is why you need to disrupt his timing so Brady will be off the mark. Davis can do that, I don’t think Smith can.
by The Hill on Nov 8, 2009 9:43 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Saw the downside with a physical guy like Vontae today though too...
Kept getting flagged for contact. He would have fit in better about 20 years ago. Teams started going away from bump and press guys like him because of all the interference and contact rules. However, with time, backs are learning how to still be physical within the tighter rules.
Conventional wisdom would say this:
Smith can blanket a guy, and matches up on size, which makes him better on the track guys that run a lot of fly routes. Davis is better on the route runners because his physical play style disrupts the routes.
Problem is, Moss is big, fast, strong, runs great routes, and has great hands and awareness. Basically throwing a monkey wrench in everything I just said.
Meaning, if I was the DC in today’s game, the Pats probably would have put up 47 because I would’ve had Smith on Moss and Davis on Welker.

Davis shows he can play the ball as well as any WR
He went up on two different occassions and took the ball away from Moss, or broke the pass up. Not to mention the 2 point conversion last game. He was definitely the better matchup….plush he as much better quickness and speed. Did anyone else notice when he went from almost flat footed to stride for stride with Randy Moss?

Not mad at all but need to see some potential in the WR(Patrick Turner or sign Somone)
I like the future of this team. Secondary looks good, and the QB is solid. Just need a #1 WR and we would be good to go. The defence played well they made stops when we needed it. Its our offence that couldnt produce plays. We are really in a dire need of A #1 WR. Since the easy part of the schedule is coming up i hope to see Patrick Turner in the Mix to see what hes got. I mean What do we have to lose?. Everyone drops passes on this team on crucial plays and it continues to kill this team. Tedd Ginn is just a real good solid Return man and Camarillo is a average 2nd WR and Bess is a slot WR. At this point we have seen enough of this average WR core (at best). And its time to really mix things up. The lack of a passing game is starting to screw up the running game. But other than that this team is heading in the right direction.

They show alot of young inconsistency. Vontae Davis made two unreal plays on balls thrown to Moss, the first he picked off. And the one handed play Moss made was such a pushoff it was sick. Vontae doesn’t just fly back two yards for no reason by himself. Still a nasty catch. With him and Sean Smith I think we finally have two ball hawking guys once they mature, like Madison and Surtain were. But we have NO threat at reciever. Its pitiful. And Im afraid to say, there is NOBODY out there to get in FA or the draft(Don’t think we’re going to be able to get Dez Bryant). Why isn’t Patrick Turner getting any looks? Henne has nobody to throw to.
As for Ginn, why do we do this to him and ourselves? It seems like we set him up to fail. You finally use him as a reciever on 4th and 15?! What!?
Where was our pass rush? We sat back and held off on blitzing, which has been what has helped us every first half, and Sporano moves away from it and does this stupid Nickle crap. Brady had all day with us rushing 4 guys. You can’t expect out guys to cover them for an hour and a half.
Sporano looks very very young and inexperienced as a coach.
We drop every single pass. And its usually when Henne puts it in a perfect position for the receivers.
All that being said, do we realize we are COMPLETELY competing here against teams we aren’t considered to have a chance against with a first year starting qb who has NO reciever threat, and two rookie CB’s. The potential for this team is pretty high up there. If Henne gets a WR who can stretch the field and catch a damn ball, there is no reason we aren’t a force for years to come here.
Can we please just play ONE game where we figure out what’s working, and STAY with it?

Rec'd
I agree on pretty much every point but I just want to point out that the Nickel package is necessary for us to cover tight ends in clear passing situations. The real problem is that we aren’t running corner/safety blitzes out of the nickel to create pressure. Our DBs have shown that they can get to the QB, we need to use them.

I didn’t really convey what I meant. My point was more about us blitzing than the nickel. I like how our blitzes out of the nickel have been working. I meant more, us sitting back in coverage.

That's true
As a defender, you’re always at a disadvantage. No matter how great of a corner you are, eventually, given enough time, anyone can get open on anyone.
Our line isn’t getting the pressure they need, which requires us to send that nickel blitz, or to rush 6 or 7 to get the pressure, which of course causes havoc on the secondary
by rroan28 on Nov 8, 2009 11:29 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Honestly though....
I can not believe how under talked about it is that we are doing what we are doing with our backup QB, in his first starts of his career, who has a ridiculously bad WR group.
I knew we were in trouble when I saw JASON ALLEN in the game.
Still, I don’t understand how we weren’t using Jason Taylor and blitzes on the side with their backup LT.
Pat White is going to get hurt, and I hope he proves me wrong. But I have never seen anybody run as upright as he was running on that 33 yard run. haha. He looked scared for his life.
They were giving us such a cushion, I wish Henne threw some quick passes to the perimeter,, sure you might get a yard or two on it. But what if you break one?
I dont remember a blitz more than maybe one or two times, so it was usually our 4 pass rushers on their 5 OL and an RB.
Did anyone else see that Chambers had 2 TD’s today!! The irony.
I cannot wait until Henne gets a WR to throw to. The kid is going to be something special.

The idea of someone who can not only stretch the field, but also catch a pass is the goal. We run every play like we are in the red zone with only 20 yds. of field to work with. Im so optimistic of our future right now, but there is NO WR out there to be had unless Dez Bryant slips, not that he’s a sure bet anyhow. But the potential of Braylon for us, to grow with Henne(AGAIN) far outweighed the risk. He was the NCAA’s reciever of the year, he showed us on that monday night what he can do. We have nobody in his world at reciever, and nobody on the horizon.
Though, its against everything Parcells stands for to go after a WR like that, not named Keyshawn.

and though I didn't expect him to catch it...
and it was a rocket from Henne, when I saw the reply of the Ginn drop, he had both hands on it, and it didn’t look like it was hard to catch, and he had such green ahead of him on that slant if he catches that, he could easily have taken it to the house The irony of him getting that pass, being open, and that happening.

live though, that was an absolutely rocket. Henne could throw a football through a car window.
