Back in the race. Gotta pick it going.

The Fins are back in the race, that's true. What does Gotta pick it going mean?

IMO the game vs the Panthers is one of the toughest, if not the toughest game remaining on the Fins' schedule because of the Panthers' defense. I think Thomas should keep getting carries. He had a heck of a game vs the Chargers. Great game by Clay. Good to see the Oline play well. The Fins' defense has more playmakers this year. Brent Grimes is having a pro bowler type of year along with Wake.

Nice to see them beat the belicheats now hopefully take advantage of them at home on a short week.

I meant to say gotta keep it going. Autocorrect fucked me over while using my phone.

Dolphins injury report: Mike Pouncey doubtful - ESPN

Richie Incognito was seen arriving at practice by reporters.

I wanted to be done with this subject but seems difficult for it to go away, so I will say this - The Dolphins have handled this horribly for one reason, and it is not the reason(s) other fans or the media has mentioned… IMO, my biggest problem has been that through this entire time, from the players to the FO they have seemed to be on Richie’s corner who I would say is the guilty party in this case as opposed to JM who is the victim… JM does not want to return for obvious reasons, but it is absolutely wrong for the organization to give Richie hope that he can return to the team after what he has put this organization through… The best thing to do would have been to part ways with him the moment this happen.. An indefinite suspension is just a temporary and soft solution to the problem… Shouldve just gotten rid of him and provided JM with any and all help he needed… The team is valuing the wrong person in this case. JM is younger and with a brighter future ahead of him as an NFL player - RI has a bad rep and this situation should have done nothing but hurt him. Doubtful it happens at this point, but it would be best to see the Fins part ways with RI for good already and try to repair their situation with JM.

RI is also a FA next year so no matter who's side you're on you are correct. Sucks all around....

RB Mike Gillislee
C Mike Pouncey
CB Dimitri Patterson
QB Pat Devlin
OL David Arkin
DL Isaako Aaitui
RT Jonathan Martin These are the inactives for today - Mike Pouncey, who may decide on removal of gall bladder surgery which might end his season and Patterson , who cant stay healthy are the notable in actives.

 

[Paolo305613]

Backup cornerback Nolan Carroll will replace Patterson in the starting lineup. Sam Brenner will get his second consecutive start at guard and Nate Garner will move to center.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Tough to lose Pouncey especially with two other starters out unbelievable. No luck! Will be tough for any team to hold it together especially against a good Carolina team. Crossing my fingers.

 

[Paolo305613]

Keys to the game - Win the toss - Take the ball. Run the ball early and often and keep the faith in it. Score a TD in the first drive. Defensively, we have to be discipline when bringing the pressure and finish our tackles. Special teams will be as important as ever in this one.

Lets keep our playoff hopes alive.

Keep the faith… We were under similar circumstances last week and pulled it off. We can do it again this week!

FINS UP!

 

[Paolo305613]

Just based off of that first play I can gather that that “Go-Go, Go” thing which determines whether it is a run or pass for Miami, is in fact something they are tipping off to the defense… Turnover already.

 

[Paolo305613]

Weak run call leads to that

 

[Paolo305613]

Dion Jordan on the block FG I believe. Big play for the D after a TO

 

[Paolo305613]

We need to run on first down otherwise we will be on bad second and third situations

 

[Paolo305613]

I hate these Miami’s games on Fox - This Tim Ryan dude is an idiot and Miami hater.

Nice play by RT and a finish by MW

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Nice TD by Wallace bad throw but will take it! D has been sell.

 

[Paolo305613]

Philbin still perfect on challenges

 

[FlyerFinFan]

Yep Ryans an idiot great stop by Vernon. I could see he was short on my dvr.

 

[Paolo305613]

Wallace with hamstring issues - Playing real hard already. Might be out the rest of the half - Hopefully no longer

 

[Paolo305613]

At first glance it seemed he crossed the line but the first replay showed he was clearly short of the first. Great challenge
