The Dolphins are getting good play from their defense, bad play from Tampa Bay, and some breaks from the officials.
The result is Miami leads the Bucs 19-6 as they prepare to start the third quarter.
The Dolphins got their last touchdown -- a 5-yard pass to Kory Sperry -- after Jason Taylor set Miami up deep inside Tampa Bay territory. That interception, by the way, was a gift from the officiating crew after a replay review that clearly showed the Bucs had a completion from Josh Freeman to Mark Clayton.
Anyway,
The Dolphins have a sack from Cameron Wake. They have two catches from Sperry, a tight end activated only yesterday. And some excellent play from Taylor.
Join me in the comments section for the third quarter continuation of the live blog.
AAAAARRRRRIGHT MIAMI ! BWAAAAAAAAAAA!

Ted Ginn single handedly extends every game by 10 minutes by continually stepping out of bounds and stopping the clock.

Why are people here belly-aching about cutting Connor Barth? We don't have a problem with our kicker. Who cares? Now, if we had cut a returner who does not run every single kick OB then we should complain.

angry fin fan you really should leave the roids alone.

Guys, just a side note. The Falcons are playing with fury, they're leading Atlanta right now. I don't want to face them on thursday. Check them out.

Hey nj pull the c(ck out of your mouth and take a gander at the scoreboard. What a complete tool u r

Ginn out of bounds Aginn... Nice ST's player but he was the 9th overall pick... Still not sure what Camoron and Mueller were smoking on.

I did know they cut Conner Armando...no reason to keep 2 kickers right? Carpentar is not bad! How about some background information on Kory Sperry?
Posted by: Indiana Dolfan | November 15, 2009 at 03:16 PM
Carpenter is doing just as well. So they can have Barth.
Posted by: Cyor1 | November 15, 2009 at 03:16 PM
Mando,
Yeah, he was 1 of 2 coming into this game. He's like most stupid kickers that get cut by a team... they always make everything against them... and then go back to normal the next week.
Posted by: Tommya | November 15, 2009 at 03:16 PM
good thing this isn't a fg type game, otherwise it would hav all the makings of a lull u to sleep!
Posted by: superPHIN | November 15, 2009 at 03:16 PM
Barth is the all time leader in NC history, his little brother kicks for them now.
Posted by: shaggy | November 15, 2009 at 03:17 PM
It really is time to shelve that spread formation crap.

No more Pat White please. Either run Wildcat or keep Henne in the game...why do they do this? He should not run either. Ricky and Ronnie much better!
Posted by: Indiana Dolfan | November 15, 2009 at 03:18 PM

God dammit why did we switch it up
Posted by: Lazysol | November 15, 2009 at 03:19 PM
Hey Armando, as an idea for a story you should look at the percentage of drives which end when Pat White goes into the game. Its has got to be around 80-90%.
Posted by: Rob in MLB | November 15, 2009 at 03:19 PM
