Game Thread: Week 5 Game 4 Game Thread

Another shot for the Fins to get it back together or see their season continue on a sour note.

For this game I hope Gase has the team fly back home from London ASAP rather than wait for the last 24-48 hours before the game to fly and prepare for them game in a rush to then have excuses after when it doesn't work out as you should've known it wouldn't

Cutler is a hack, as long as he is playing Fins will suffer. Time to bench him and start Moore

The weird part of all of this is how well Cutler and the offense looked in the first game on the road at the Chargers. I know they have talent and are underperforming.

This is the first week that the team has anything close to a normal schedule of practice and preparation. We'll see if the team bounces back. Last year the Fins had a winning streak after starting 1-4. They showed character by not giving up. There are a lot of guys on the roster from last year. They should know it's not over.

If Mariota doesn't start, you guys might have a shot at winning.

Still early in the season, so we should stick with Cutler as long as there is still something to play for. When the season OFFICIALLY slips away and there is nothing to play for than we can certainly turn to Matt Moore so you can see him turn in a similar performances to the one he had in the playoffs last season vs Pitt.

Now to serious business -- Whether its Cassel or Mariorta the Dolphins defense should be able to come out and do what they haven't done yet this season - and that is come out hungry and ready to eat from start to finish.

I am not suggesting scrapping the no-huddle offense all together or for good - but the Dolphins should really consider chewing up some clock on offense today and allow the heat and humidity to take its toll on the Titans defense as much as possible - keep our defense off the field as long as possible.

Cassel vs. Cutler, Welcome back to the fun!

Titans win toss and elect to receive because thats how its done - lets see if our defense comes to play on the first drive

 

[Paolo305613]

3 and out for the fins D - they bring the pressure on third down, and wouldn't you know it -- they make a stop. Amazing how things turn out when you make the common sense play call in a given situation. Now, the Fins must execute on offense and make sure to stick to their game plan especially early on

 

[Paolo305613]

And a quick 3 and out for the fins on offense after 2 weak ass runs don't work. Bad decision after the catch there for Parker instead of going up field and goes east and west - though the play should've been a more vertical approach to begin with.

Get another stop

 

[Paolo305613]

Not a 3 and out but a stop nonetheless. Seems the Fins D came to play at least to start with

 

[Paolo305613]

Weak ass second down and 5 play on that bubble screen to Landry - Fins have to be more vertical and attack more to find a rhythm - these behind the line of scrimmage passes, delays are going to be the death of me.

 

[Paolo305613]

A much needed takeaway for the Dolphins D

 

[Paolo305613]

Good to see Williams get some carries - he needs to get more.

Now Parker is apparently banged up

 

[Paolo305613]

Fins choke another 3rd down on offense - but no fear! fist pump! FG!

 

[Paolo305613]

Saved by the penalty otherwise it would've been a big play against fins for a score

 

[Paolo305613]

Fumble and TD for the Fins pending review? WOW ! potential momentum shifter

 

[Paolo305613]

1st half TD for fins this season. Great heads up situation for the defense. Keep the fucking focus
