It's a slugfest!
The Colts score a TD. The Dolphins answered.
The Dolphins got a go-ahead field goal to take a 13-10 lead. The Colts tied it as time ran out in the half.
Ronnie Brown already has 83 yards on 11 carries. He carried it all of 10 times vs. Atlanta.
the Dolphins have been outgained 198-186 at halftime. But the home team has 132 of its yards on the ground. Spectacular!







8 seconds left on the clock and they need 20 yards... why not press??????????

Mando,
GET ON SPARANO'S CASE WITH CLOCK MANAGEMENT AFTER THIS GAME. !! thank you
Posted by: Andrew H | September 21, 2009 at 10:11 PM
why is this secondary so poor
Posted by: NARVELL | September 21, 2009 at 10:12 PM
I hate the fact that they discuss every other game other than the Dolphins game in the halftime show.
Posted by: DFJ305 | September 21, 2009 at 10:13 PM
Thats because the dolphins are not woth talking about DFJ305
Posted by: dolphanforlife | September 21, 2009 at 10:14 PM
We gave them 10 easy points last half. We aren't as bad as last week showed. We can WIN!
Posted by: Andrew H | September 21, 2009 at 10:14 PM
Going to bed... i´ll watch the 2nd half tomorrow, its already 4.15 am here in spain.
Go phins!!!!!!
Posted by: andy | September 21, 2009 at 10:15 PM
We are going to do this. Keep the faith!
Posted by: Wnyphinphan | September 21, 2009 at 10:15 PM
The colts d will wear down in the 4rth.
Posted by: NJ PHIN FAN | September 21, 2009 at 10:15 PM
What's with these guys? All that hard work in the first half for nothing. Do we have a DB that can make a play?
Posted by: Jim | September 21, 2009 at 10:15 PM
Everybody do a shot!
Posted by: Po White Trash | September 21, 2009 at 10:15 PM
We're a much better squad than that first drive.
I'd really like to see Porter puts a hit on Manning, the guy's barely getting touched.
Posted by: Sohail | September 21, 2009 at 10:16 PM
Sorry Mando & Andrew, but i don't think i can agree with the clock argument...if he was really playing for the FG (and killing the clock) he woulda had a much safer 3rd-down play just to get the clock right. Fins were going for 7, not 3...and they'd need the time for that.
Posted by: MIAinBFLO | September 21, 2009 at 10:16 PM
Let's go phons

Let's go phins
Posted by: Phinsphan | September 21, 2009 at 10:16 PM
If I may take a page from Coach Green. We are who we thought we were. The Detroit Pistons in the making. I should run this team. I could do a much better job.
Posted by: dolphanforlife | September 21, 2009 at 10:16 PM
Excellent observation Andrew H. Simply excellent.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 21, 2009 at 10:16 PM
C'mon andy, be a trooper . Stay up all night and go right to work. you call yourself a fan ? LOL
Posted by: NJ PHIN FAN | September 21, 2009 at 10:17 PM
a miss interception by sorry wilson, a bad penalty by mcdaniels that gave 5 more yards, where is the intelligence and discipline, not to mention as well as they have been running the ball why not go for it on 4 and 1 at the colts 30. you think you are going to beat the colts kicking field goals all night. soprano is playing scared
Posted by: NARVELL | September 21, 2009 at 10:17 PM
3.15 here in the UK and loving the Fins - that last play was crazy thought. Why do we always shoot ourselves in the foot?!! At least we've controlled the clock, hopefully Indy D gets tired in 4th Quarter and Ronnie runs all over them!! GO FINS!!!
Posted by: London Phin | September 21, 2009 at 10:17 PM
Armandito what did you think of Pennington in the first half?
Posted by: Eric | September 21, 2009 at 10:17 PM
The Dolphins are worth talking, if u don't believe that then your in the wrong blog.
Posted by: DFJ305 | September 21, 2009 at 10:17 PM
PISTONS?
Posted by: MIAinBFLO | September 21, 2009 at 10:17 PM
NJ PHIN FAN, think your right...
Posted by: Po White Trash | September 21, 2009 at 10:17 PM
We need inside linebackers on this team. Watch the game they are totally exploited. Thats why picking Pat White was not a luxery we could afford with all the holes we have on this team.
Posted by: Phins83 | September 21, 2009 at 10:18 PM
Gibril Wilson is a downgrade over R. Hill.
Not much pressure on PM, and CP less effective than RB @ QB.
Time for OLBs to make a play...
Posted by: Chris | September 21, 2009 at 10:18 PM
NJ Phin Fan - I'm a trooper - i'm going all the way through, tomorrow at work will be a long day so we'd better get a W!
7 On this 1st drive crucial to regain momentum.
Posted by: London Phin | September 21, 2009 at 10:19 PM
At least we get the ball for the start of the 3rd.
Posted by: Standley23 | September 21, 2009 at 10:20 PM
London phin. that's what i'm talking about.
Posted by: NJ PHIN FAN | September 21, 2009 at 10:20 PM
Back. Let's go phins!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Bostonfinfan | September 21, 2009 at 10:20 PM
Suzy needs stop going to supercuts. The humidity is killing her hair tonight.
Posted by: Bostonfinfan | September 21, 2009 at 10:21 PM
Hey guys, just got home. Saw that Freeney has a sack. Long's fault or no?
Posted by: Michigan Phin Fan | September 21, 2009 at 10:21 PM
Mando---
this week please ask why no blitz/extra-pressure or even a five-man rush on last play of half.
Posted by: Frank Lampard | September 21, 2009 at 10:21 PM
The energy is totally been sapped from this place. It is super quiet.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 21, 2009 at 10:21 PM
Ginn-credible?
Posted by: MIAinBFLO | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
nice move ted
Posted by: klndry | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
Ginn failing (falling) forward fast.
Posted by: Jamie | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
Ted Gins Signature Move finally worked.
Posted by: Bostonfinfan | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
nice move by ginn. if only he could run patterns deeper than 10 yards
Posted by: paPhinsPhan | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
We need to find some cheap fast points somewhere
Posted by: Aksteelgrizzly | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
That annoying vibration is back.
Posted by: Bostonfinfan | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
terrible playcall
Posted by: Eric | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
Bostonfinfan. you're a funny dude!
Posted by: NJ PHIN FAN | September 21, 2009 at 10:22 PM
that is what you do. power run, hard counts
Posted by: klndry | September 21, 2009 at 10:23 PM
Armando, the crowd is still in line getting margaritas.
Posted by: Bostonfinfan | September 21, 2009 at 10:23 PM
It's ALWAYS like that in 3rd quarter, Mando---
since JRS opened---people go out for 1/2 and are super-slow getting back & no enthusiasm at start of 3rd qtr. Sad but true since Fins moved north.
Posted by: Frank Lampard | September 21, 2009 at 10:23 PM
I'm kind of shocked the Colts are not run blitzing the wild cat. did they not see the Ravens and Falcons games?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 21, 2009 at 10:24 PM
Mando, fans r all gettn autographs from J Lo
Posted by: Robbyhenz | September 21, 2009 at 10:24 PM
I need a team that plays traditional foot ball
Posted by: dolphanforlife | September 21, 2009 at 10:24 PM
Can't throw a wideout screen high blows the hole thing up
Posted by: Aksteelgrizzly | September 21, 2009 at 10:24 PM
anyone gonna complain about ginn running out of bounds on that one?
Posted by: paPhinsPhan | September 21, 2009 at 10:24 PM
Once, just once, I'd love for Ginn to fight for that first down. Just once.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 21, 2009 at 10:24 PM
I hear it to it's sound like a conch!
Posted by: Standley23 | September 21, 2009 at 10:25 PM
Looooooooooouuuu
Posted by: NJ PHIN FAN | September 21, 2009 at 10:25 PM
Cmon pat!!!
Posted by: Bostonfinfan | September 21, 2009 at 10:25 PM
we are wearing them down
Posted by: klndry | September 21, 2009 at 10:25 PM
oh of course. yeah mando... the 170lb wide receiver is really generating push...
Posted by: paPhinsPhan | September 21, 2009 at 10:26 PM
really, White? really?
Posted by: Andrew H | September 21, 2009 at 10:26 PM
Get Pat White out of the game.
Posted by: Hayden Fox | September 21, 2009 at 10:26 PM
Mando, I'll get Ginn some roids so he gains 40 lbs or u'll never lay off him
Posted by: Robbyhenz | September 21, 2009 at 10:26 PM
