If you read my column that ran in today's paper and is on the website, you would see how coach Tony Sparano believes he has three receivers on the roster whose roles are well defined. Beyond that, Sparano said, "the waters start to get muddy."
How muddy?
Well, today Ernest Wilford and Derek Hagan are both inactive for this game against Houston.
Anyway, we'll be blogging live starting in the comments section here. We'll move to a new post at the start of every quarter and jump to the comments section there.

Shows it every week
Posted by: Vic Skim | October 12, 2008 at 12:19 PM
Well if we lose today the decision to have those 2 guys inactive is going to weigh like an anchor around sparano's neck
Posted by: dolphan4life | October 12, 2008 at 12:28 PM
I am sorry, but you have to have either Wilford or Hagan active. You got to see if they can do something.
By the way, remember the damn Jets game where we had nobody with the ability to go get it in the endzone at the end of the game.
Not good, boys.

Well, London will get his chance beyond STs.
Wilford is a the biggest (maybe only) Trifecta bust. Got his (6mil) and quit trying -- generally means he doesn't really enjoy football. Got a feeling Pennington doesn't really trust Hagan either...
Tough match-ups for Dolphin's DBs today and Texans have an excellent TE.

ty,,,,,,,,,we better win this game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: ehm pizzle | October 12, 2008 at 12:34 PM
Not Sure If This Is A Must Win,but It Would Show The Vegas People To Show A Little R.e.s.p.e.c.t! Houston Favored By 3...

Go Fish

Just as a reminder of Travis Johnson's disgusting act when he talked crap over an unconscience Trent Green. I hope Miami gives him some physical play back or makes it hurt even more by sending these guys to 0-5.
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 12:50 PM
COME ON PHINS. DO US PROUD AND GET TO 3-2. NEXT WEEK WILL REALLY SHOW HOW WE ARE DOING AGAINST BMORE
Posted by: | October 12, 2008 at 12:51 PM
How can Steve Slaton have success in this league?
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 12:56 PM
Need more production frm Ted Ginn Jr's family
Posted by: Colorado Fin Fan | October 12, 2008 at 12:59 PM
They should throw a wrinkle in where they line up in the wildcat and then switch to a regular formation and throw deep.
Posted by: Joel | October 12, 2008 at 01:02 PM
OK, guys the Dolphins win the toss and defer. here we gooooooo.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:02 PM
must win game
Posted by: G money | October 12, 2008 at 01:03 PM
I do not like this deferring stuff
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 01:03 PM
Houston establishes Andre Johnson on first down. That is the key matchup for Miami on D today. The secondary vs. Johnson and Walter -- two big WRs.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:04 PM
Come on, Steve Slaton?
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 01:05 PM
i dont like the start.
Posted by: | October 12, 2008 at 01:05 PM
Slaton got a couple of good blocks, one on Bell, one on Will Allen.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:05 PM
yes. interception!!
Posted by: | October 12, 2008 at 01:06 PM
INTERCEPTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: finfan2009 | October 12, 2008 at 01:06 PM

Posted by: dolphan4life | October 12, 2008 at 01:06 PM
Ayodele EXCELLENT athletic move to run his body practically all the way around to make the INT
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:06 PM
will we see alot of the wild cat today?
Posted by: | October 12, 2008 at 01:07 PM
No huddle on third down.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:07 PM
the pass from Pennington was behind Fasano. Incomplete on third down.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:08 PM
we had the rb open on that one
Posted by: | October 12, 2008 at 01:08 PM
Hmm, 3rd & 1 and we don't run?
Posted by: Joel | October 12, 2008 at 01:08 PM
i didnt like that call.
Posted by: | October 12, 2008 at 01:08 PM
wasted interception
Posted by: | October 12, 2008 at 01:10 PM
Penny had a checkdown eh to Brown?
Posted by: Hayden Fox | October 12, 2008 at 01:10 PM
by the way, I'm told ESPN's Mortensen reported the Lions not going to trade Roy Williams while Glazer reported on Fox they're open to trading him.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:10 PM
slaton was very good in west virginia
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:11 PM
That is the second big running play to the right side that Houston has had success with.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:11 PM
run defense looking shaky
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:12 PM
another first down
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:12 PM
Mando, you keep pushing Roy Williams. Do you know something you're not telling us?
Posted by: Joel | October 12, 2008 at 01:12 PM
geez. i have a bad feeling about this one
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:13 PM
TE Owen Daniels beats Channing Crowder in coverage for a first down pass.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:13 PM
Texans in passing mode now on second down.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:14 PM
they are picking us apart already
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:14 PM
I love Andre' Davis. I wondered why the Dolphins didn't try to sign him in the offseason. Good returner, too.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:14 PM
should have ran for the first
Posted by: dolphan4life | October 12, 2008 at 01:14 PM
our o needs to put a long drive together to give our d some rest. if we keep going 3 and out its going to be a long day
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:16 PM
ANOTHER ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: finfan2009 | October 12, 2008 at 01:17 PM
yes interception again
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:17 PM
Another interception. Andre' Goodman gets this one. And the crowd is hating on Matt Schaub.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:17 PM
now lets run the ball
Posted by: G Money | October 12, 2008 at 01:17 PM
PLEASE LETS DO SOMETHING WITH IT THIS TIME!!!!
Posted by: finfan2009 | October 12, 2008 at 01:17 PM
Wildcat!
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:17 PM
WOW...Goodman actually got a pick...amazing
Posted by: Marc | October 12, 2008 at 01:18 PM

Posted by: dolphan4life | October 12, 2008 at 01:18 PM
That felt like it was a setup for something we haven't seen yet.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 12, 2008 at 01:18 PM
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: finfan2009 | October 12, 2008 at 01:18 PM
Too easy
