Need to stop the screen passes - they dont do shit and our blocking is shit

 

[Paolo305613]

Well, we get ball to start the second half and only down a TD. crucial to get points on the first drive to have a chance. We havent done jack shit to this point

Branden Albert down is no good. But this is why Jason Fox or Turner need to be active more often - they are capable replacements to our OL

J Fox didn't really prove himself in preseason in my opinion. The Oline is playing well though without him right now. RE Turner: He also hasn't shown a lot to earn time either. These guys could be active in the near future to provide depth. Albert's injury looks severe unfortunately. J James is playing great at LT & D Thomas is playing well at RT. The Fins are on the board. The score is 3 to 10. The Fins get the ball to start the second half. Landry has made an impact at WR. Grimes had a great INT. The Fins are being resilient in this game against the best defense in the NFL.

Daniel Thomas fumble - doing what he does.

Great return by Landry. Field position is huge in a game like this. D Thomas fumbled. That's the last thin the team needs. Huge sack by Jenkins & Jones.

Funny because the team and beat writers said the opposite all through camp. He was just the victim of our depth at the position at the time and fell behind. I never said we werent doing well without him - I just know the guy could really help us .

Damn Thomas. Got to hold onto the ball.

 

[Paolo305613]

He’s a gator, but good to see Jenkins come up big thus far this season. Was afraid they may give up on him too early. THe guy has potential.

 

[Paolo305613]

Good stop by our defense after DT gave it to them

 

[Paolo305613]

Thuggish Lions with another late hit - we have to take advantage of their dirtyness

 

[FanofPelicans]

D Jordan had a nice tackle on Bush. The Fins will have good field position again after Landry's kick return.

I think they are frustrated because Landry is making a big impact. RB Williams is playing well.

 

[Paolo305613]

Read option not working but it wont cuz we arent running effecticely to begin with

 

[Paolo305613]

settle for 3. Need another quick stop.

 

[FanofPelicans]

Sturgis hit a 50 yrd FG to bring the Fins within 4. I think the Fins D can stop the Lions offense.

 

[Paolo305613]

Tannehill banged up - if he cant come back in, we are done

 

[Paolo305613]

Defense not doing their job this drive so far. Letting them run it down their throat

 

[Paolo305613]

Heard a lot of praise for our D this week - some called it dominant... Hard to see that in this game. They looked undisicplined and soft . - which is the same ive thought of them all season long. I know pass D ranks well, but not good enough. Our pass d is why the Lions are going for it on 4th down so much.

 

[Paolo305613]

Big play by Dion Jordan. Hope we can execute now.
