Dolphins vs Texans

[FanofPelicans]

Big test for the Fins tonight. The Texans are a top contender. They are a complete team. The secondary for the Fins will be tested against some very good WR's. On offense Lance Louis will get time in this game at RG. I'm eager to see if he can solidify the Oline.

The Stars will shine. Grimes with an INT. Wallace with 3 catches & a TD on the scoring drive. Tannehill is playing very well. The score is 7 to 7 but the Texans scored with many of the Fins' starters out of the game.

Bad news: Keller looks severely injured. I wish him the best in his recovery. The Fins' other TE's will need to step up.

Tore his ACL, MCL and PCL. Obviously out for the year. That is a real shame. He was only on a 1 year deal. He and Tannehill had really built some chemistry in camp thus far. So now, Clay, Sims and Egnew must step here.

It is a shame. He would have made an impact for sure for the Fins this year & that hit really affected his career. Swearinger blamed the NFL (RE no hits to the head) rather than just saying sorry, I'll try not to hit players low at the knees or high to the head. I hope that other opponents have better placed hits because Keller had no chance to defend himself on that play. Some of Tannehill's best throws were to Keller. He'll be missed on the field. That being said, the Pats are still contenders with their losses at TE. The Dolphins can still win games also. The Fins still have a great defense, underrated running game & talented WR's. I hope that one of the TE's (or more) on the roster emerges & becomes the reliable player(s) the team needs. Right after the injury the Fins had one of the best drives they had all preseason, Tannehill & the team were able to refocus. It will take a team effort to win & the Fins still have a lot of talent on the roster.

Sorry to hear about your loss.
I had you guys winning the AFC East (you still have more of a chance than anyone gives you credit).
The Dolphins will still compete but they looked much better with TWO legitimate receiving options.

Why are hits like that not outlawed in the NFL? Dude was leading with helmet, looked like?

The NFL has traded head shots for knee shots. At the same time defensive players don't have to focus on the knee to make a tackle. Its too bad.

Did you guys see the hit Bostic from Chicago had on that receiver from San Diego? Word is Bostic was fined $21,000 for that hit today. I watched the replay several times. Looks to me like a great CLEAN hit. I find it funny how that hit drew a fine. Get ready for a lot of blown out knees from tackles in the near future...
