Lets get some chatter going Fins Fans

FINS UP!

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Getting pumped up! It's going to be Miller time soon finally unleashed!

 

[CaptO]

This for Fins fans only - or are Browns also welcome?

 

[CaptO]

Helluva wind blowing up here. Short passes definitely the best bet

Gooooooo Brownies

 

[FlyerFinFan]

More nerves in Gibsons case shitty drop.

Gibson with a drop? Who'd have thought it? (Every single Rams fan raises a hand).

Sturgis looks solid can't say that about the oline blocking. Guaranteed carps would have missed at least one.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

D looking stellar! Especially secondary.

 

[BritishDolfan]

That pick was if anything bad luck, or good defence. It wasn't a bad throw.

Up until the pick Tannehill had looked good. The Dolphins OL has been shaky and Miller isn't getting it done. Thomas might get more opportunities.

Possibly, but Tannehill tends to throw low and have a few balls tipped - normally at the line. I didn't get to see the replay.

Foolish penalty by Patterson there.

It wasn't tipped at the line, it was an LB in coverage who made a good play to tip it.

 

[BritishDolfan]

Not much you can do about passes and catches like that.

 

[fastforward]

If Grimes was playing the outside he should have been in position to do something about it. The press at the line was designed to take away the quick inside release. I think the Dolphins had the right defense and Weeden didn't read it. Grimes was in position but he overplayed it. At that distance you have to gamble. You're going to get beat a lot of times. The Dolphins look like the better team. The lack of rushing attacks is a surprise.

 

[BritishDolfan]

Anyone got another stream, the on up-thread seems to have died. Edit: it worked again.

 

[Paolo305613]

The only reason why Miller hasn't been effective yet, is because the types of run plays they are calling for him are weak and don't suit him as well - He is better at running perimeter runs, but he has to be more decisive and not dance around. If we continue to run between the tackles, our running game will not get going at all. Our offensive line is not doing well enough to be calling plays in which patience is required to have things develop. In passing, we need to get the TE involved to open things up for Wallace... Fins are trying so far with their play-calling... They will make excuses about the lack of talent they have at TE but don't even try getting those guys the ball to see what they can do.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Don't take away from the browns D it's stout especially at the line. Pick wasn't completely Tannys fault.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Fins have to still try to run the ball. Just don't dance. Man the punters are letting it rip!
