Goal line stand keeps Miami up 17-10 in 4th Q
The Dolphins have just come with an excellent goal line stand on fourth-and-goal from the 1 yard line to start the fourth quarter.
LaDainian Tomlinson was stopped short after the Chargers threatened to tie the game.
The third quarter pretty much belonged to the Chargers as they scored the period's only touchdown on a 17-yard pass from Phillip Rivers to former Dolphins receiver Chris Chambers.
That TD cut Miami's lead from 17-3 at the half to 17-10.
The Chargers then kicked off and Davone Bess fumbled the kickoff, putting San Diego in position for yet another score. But the Dolphins defense answered the challenge, stopping Tomlinson at the 1 yard line.

Pass interference called. Good call.

this is so much fun
Posted by: NaplesGator | October 05, 2008 at 03:19 PM
It is amazing to me how Miami receivers (all of them) are running so free in the secondary. SD secondary really sucks.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 05, 2008 at 03:19 PM
back on track. all we need is 3 points
Posted by: G MONEY | October 05, 2008 at 03:19 PM
Pennington has had EXCELLENT protection, AGAIN...It seems like everything's in slow motion
Posted by: Marc | October 05, 2008 at 03:19 PM
Fasano!!
Posted by: Sammy in Dubai | October 05, 2008 at 03:19 PM
they are pretty bad. with a secondary like that they are not a contender
Posted by: G MONEY | October 05, 2008 at 03:20 PM
This is where the Dolphins have to win with their base offense. Wildcat works for a while, but they need to move with base offense.

Mando are you allowed to just diss on the other team like that being a journalist?
Posted by: finfan2009 | October 05, 2008 at 03:20 PM

Posted by: G MONEY | October 05, 2008 at 03:22 PM
Somebody on the defense needs to earn their paycheck on this game is over...
Posted by: Marc | October 05, 2008 at 03:22 PM
with 2 R and R we should be able to pick up 1 yard
Posted by: G MONEY | October 05, 2008 at 03:23 PM
why punt we had nothing to loose? play to win.
Posted by: | October 05, 2008 at 03:23 PM
I bet Jay Feely was celebrating after that missed FG...
Posted by: Marc | October 05, 2008 at 03:23 PM
cant believe we punted. gained 18 yards. shoulda just taken the risk and gone for it.
Posted by: finfan2009 | October 05, 2008 at 03:23 PM
I hate when its 4th and 1 from the 40 and you decide to punt
Posted by: NaplesGator | October 05, 2008 at 03:23 PM
Chris Chambers is out of the game, by the way.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 05, 2008 at 03:23 PM

Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 05, 2008 at 03:24 PM

Posted by: | October 05, 2008 at 03:24 PM

Matt Roth ran through LT like wasn't even there. Sack is for 9 yard loss.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 05, 2008 at 03:25 PM
Roth has been great as a linebacker, amazing.
Posted by: Joel | October 05, 2008 at 03:25 PM
