After today not sure how much more I can handle! Either way they won but next week is also a must win to keep pace. Do that and things look pretty good. A little frustrated that they blew the game last week if Gase would only run the ball consistently like he did today they'd always have a shot.

As usual , things get lost in a magic of a win — this is this teams biggest problem — the fact that they won doesn’t take away from the fact that they must address some things.

On the play that Drake fumbled , there was no need to be in shotgun formation given the down and distance . It was Gase once again refusing to go with the simple , smart play in favor of the wannabe tough guy play .

Then , as i expected, he did NOTHING to own up to it after the game even as he saw how devastated Drake once on the sideline over being forced into a mistake that didn’t need to happen .

Expect more of the same frustrating mistakes from this team because the coach refuses to acknowledge his role in the matter .

Oh btw , Gase did say today that Tannehill will be the unquestioned starter when healthy

Now the team is saying he is out indefinitely— although when healthy , the above still stands

yeah he's day to day according to espn. Hopefully back soon and in the meantime let's hope that Os can play well or even better.

Hopefully he's fully better after the BYE.

We got a lot of winnable games left this season, regardless. BUF x2, IND, DET, NYJ. GB and HOU look beatable. Now Leonard Fournette could be out for JAX. Just 5-5 over the rest of the season gets us to.............9-7!

IMO Tannehill is likely gone next year. Too many injuries and can't stay on field. To costly to keep him around next year.

if Brock Osweiler has more good starts, I think you may be right. I'm not sure they draft a 1st round QB in 2019. There's so many good DE prospects, and we really need a LDE, a la Zach Allen, who can consistently set the edge in the running game whilst providing pass rush ability. Bosa, Gary, and Allen are my top 3 for that role. It also looks like the 1st round could net a few teams an excellent DT.

Hard to say health is always part of the equation. They also kept Falk who is currently on IR maybe they like him...

Ryan Tannehill, DeVante Parker, A.J. Derby, Charles Harris, Jonathan Woodard, Sam Young, Maurice Smith

Young and Parker healthy scratches because AG is an idiot who likes to hold out healthy players

A quick 3-and-out after a sack kills the drive.

TD Lions. Absolutely no resistance from the Dolphins defense -- which isn't a surprise.

Looking good early. I expect Osweiler's day to be miserable. 4-5 sacks and a couple INTs.

I love me some Frank Gore, from? The U! But, Adam Gase continues to prove his stupidity as an HC by neglecting Kenyan Drake on offense like the Fins ignore the TE on both sides of the ball.

Once again the broadcast replay shows Dolphins defenders looking around pre-snap trying to figure out what to do and then the opponent torches them for big yards -- been an issue all year. Its inexperience from some players - and just terrible coaching.

Fins finally get on the board. And Kenny Still inadvertently takes down security personnel

Deactivating Devante Parker for no reason beyond stupidity from the coach, could prove costly now

And the Lions run it down the Fins throat to make the deficit 10 -- just before the half -- Lions will start second half with the ball as well
