The Dolphins have already converted a Wildcat package play into a touchdown today.
They have tried the package three times with the last one resulting in a 53 yard touchdown pass from quarterback Chad Pennington to running back Patrick Cobbs.
On the play, Ronnie Brown took the snap from center, handed the ball to Ricky Williams, who flipped the ball to Pennington, who then threw the TD pass to a wide open Cobbs.
The Texans have moved the ball well, outgaining the Dolphins, but two interceptions have stopped drives. Andre' Goodman and Akin Ayodele have those interceptions.
The Texans drove on their third drive of the day to score on a 27-yard field goal by Kris Brown.

is ronnie hurt?
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:09 PM
That is a big first down. It steals the momentum from the Texans, at least temporarily.

Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:09 PM

Posted by: Joel | October 12, 2008 at 02:10 PM
And there is no way you can ask David Martin to block Mario Willaims.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:10 PM
horrible playcalling.
Posted by: Eric | October 12, 2008 at 02:11 PM

Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:11 PM

Posted by: mr. x | October 12, 2008 at 02:11 PM
Ronnie doesn't look as quick today.
Posted by: Joel | October 12, 2008 at 02:11 PM

Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:11 PM
They are great tacklers. They are out playhing us all half.
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 02:11 PM
isn't it about time the Dolphins special teams makes a play this year? I mean, geez, that was the unit that was addressed much of the offseason, no?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:12 PM
our play calling is really bad this game..outside to trick plays..we are not hitting the TE, WR's or anyone else..outside swing passes...
Posted by: mr. x | October 12, 2008 at 02:12 PM
boy we need to stop them on the next series. i think our d has to win this one
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:12 PM
our special teams will give the game away! they suck!
Posted by: Eric | October 12, 2008 at 02:12 PM
Ronnie seems like he is trying to dance too much today.
Posted by: bubbleRefuge | October 12, 2008 at 02:12 PM
yea our special teams unit is garbage
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:13 PM
we need to start mixing it up a little more..pennington does not look like he is seeing the field well today.
Posted by: mr. x | October 12, 2008 at 02:13 PM
I hope we can stop em during these 2 mins
Posted by: lgmack | October 12, 2008 at 02:13 PM

Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:14 PM

Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:14 PM
THANK YOU SPECIAL TEAMS about time we stopped them to less than ten yards
Posted by: finfan2009 | October 12, 2008 at 02:14 PM
Dolphins got a break there because if Jones goes wide, he's still running.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:14 PM
Need a big stop here.
Posted by: Joel | October 12, 2008 at 02:15 PM

Posted by: Chase | October 12, 2008 at 02:15 PM
texans are trying to drain the clock.
Posted by: Eric | October 12, 2008 at 02:16 PM
We need a big turnover now!
Posted by: Haywood | October 12, 2008 at 02:16 PM

Posted by: finfan2009 | October 12, 2008 at 02:17 PM

Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:17 PM

Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:17 PM

Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:18 PM
Bess staring into the sun.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:18 PM
geez.
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:19 PM
We have punt catcher...not returner.
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 02:19 PM
Dolphins have all three time outs with 42 second left. do you try to get a FG or take a knee?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:19 PM
we are running out the clock
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:19 PM
we should have tried to score
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:20 PM
We're done for this half. I will put up a halftime post and the live blog will move to the comments section there.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:20 PM
Playing not to lose...cannot stand it. Do something with the possession.
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 02:20 PM
not a good half
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 02:20 PM
that was crap
Posted by: dolphan4life | October 12, 2008 at 02:22 PM
why are we scared to try to score before half
Posted by: dmac72 | October 12, 2008 at 02:22 PM
I liked the aggressiveness early in the first half, we need to get back into it.
Mando, are our receivers open? Is the running game opening up the potential to pass?
Posted by: Haywood | October 12, 2008 at 02:23 PM
we are being dominatedso far. now we see how they respond
Posted by: dmac72 | October 12, 2008 at 02:23 PM
OK THE NEW POST FOR THE START OF THE THIRD QUARTER IS UP AND AT 'EM. RESUME THE LIVE BLOG OVER THERE PLEASE.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 02:26 PM

Posted by: Fred Flintstone | October 12, 2008 at 02:26 PM
I dont know what the hell you all have against Devon Bess. He hasnt made any bad decisions yet... Hes had two returns over 20 yards. One fumble last week and ya'all treat him like hes garbage.... Show some respect. Hes been solid
