Game Thread: Miami Dolphins Week 9 Game Thread vs New York Jets

[Paolo305613]

3rd and 13 and the Fins use the speed of Jakeem Grant and the mismatch to pick up a crucial 3rd down as we reach the 2-minute warning of the first half.

 

[Paolo305613]

Fins forced to settle for another 3 points after a tipped pass kills the drive for the Fins

 

[Paolo305613]

6-3 Halftime lead for Fins in this FG-filled game after the Fins give up a late FG to the Wets -- Who get the ball first in the second half

 

[Paolo305613]

Jets spend an early timeout with 1339 left in the third to try to avoid a delay of game penalty - lets see if that factors late into what is currently a close game.

 

[Paolo305613]

Quick stop for the Fins D to open the second half.

 

[Paolo305613]

3rd and 1 and Gase reverts to his silly ways and calls for a pass play and Brocktober gets sacked again.

The second half of a close game is not the best time to stall offensively due to bad play calling

 

[Paolo305613]

Howard lets what would've been a big INT get away from him

 

[Paolo305613]

yet another sack on Brocktober

 

[Paolo305613]

Now McTyer lets a potential INT bounce of his hands - could've been a pick-6 IMO, had he caught it

 

[Paolo305613]

And now an idiot penalty by Branch gives the Wets a first down - just costly at this point of a game like this

 

[Paolo305613]

And now McMillian on a facemark on what would've been a good stop on defense on that down -- the collapse of the Fins may be on now

 

[Paolo305613]

6-3 lead for the Fins into the 4th but they look poised to hand the Wets this game with their silly mistakes

 

[Paolo305613]

Big sack by Wake that could help push the Jets back out of FG range and prevent a tie for now

 

[Paolo305613]

A delay of game will push them even further back

 

[Paolo305613]

Wets still attempt a FG but miss it from 50 yards out -- will the Fins finally apply the dagger or continue to keep this a game

 

[Paolo305613]

Fins fail to execute on a crucial 3rd down play -- A good idea to go to Gesicki but no reason to have tried it by way of a big play - the Fins just continue to refuse to work the short and middle part of the field

 

[Paolo305613]

Jerome Baker with a huge pick 6 that could decide this close game between two offenses doing virtually nothing.

Jerome Baker is one of those Fins by this front office this lousy fan base will no give them credit for due to being focused on the ones they got wrong to criticize them like idiots.

Jerome Baker continues to flash his skills - he will break out eventually.

 

[Paolo305613]

bad snap for the Jets as they are now the ones falling apart at the worst possible time -- and its great.

 

[Paolo305613]

And... of course he actually makes it from 56 and this is still a 1-possession/TD game - Fins need to take care of the ball and work the clock some to put this one away

 

[Paolo305613]

3rd and 1 - Gore tries to run it up the middle but goes no where -- that would've been a good time to run Drake and see if he could use his speed to gain a little more
