EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- [Update: Kerry Rhodes and Joey Porter just engaged in a shoving match during pregame warmups.
[I guess this will be a physical game as promised.]
This is the Dolphins final game in this facility.
The next time the Dolphins play here in the regular-season, the game will happen in the new facility being built just across from this one.
The Dolphins seem to be the better team to me today. Think about it. Yes, the Dolphins are without Channing Crowder, but the Jets are without nose tackle Kris Jenkins. Reggie Torbor will start for Crowder.
Ted Ginn is active today, but Brian Hartline will start at WR in his place.
Yes, the Dolphins are starting two rookie cornerbacks and they will have their growing pains, but that's not Kurt Warner playing QB for New York today. And the Jets don't have their full set of CBs as Lito Sheppard is out. Dwight Lowery will start at right cornerback in Sheppard's place.
I would tell you the Jets clearly have a special teams advantage and we saw that in the first meeting this year. But Leon Washington is not there anymore as he's now out for the year.
I just see the Dolphins as the more physical of these two very physical teams.
The Miami inactives today are Crowder, Andrew Gardner, Lionel Dotson, Lydon Murtha, Kory Sheets, Patrick Turner and Quentin Moses.
clemons again!

We are certainly losing the field position game

field position game!!

Phil simms almost had it correct there...
"on 3rd and 8....i dont know if Id look that way (he meant left...he should have implied towards GINN)"

The majority of WR's in the league aren't going to beat Revis.

Ricky34,
all I know is I don't like Crowder and we need a stud ILB. Probably just wishful thinking.

Lex is active as well it looks like....cool
Posted by: harricane | November 01, 2009 at 01:21 PM
Our run is lookin sorry today.

Who is that not an illegal block from behind?
Once again, we get no calls.
Posted by: Wayne Fontes | November 01, 2009 at 01:21 PM
Looked like a lazy route to me...

Losing field position
Posted by: Standley23 | November 01, 2009 at 01:21 PM
thank you fields for helping the field position. nice punt.
Posted by: dave | November 01, 2009 at 01:21 PM
Jets suck! Go find
Posted by: D-dense | November 01, 2009 at 01:21 PM
Marc, better young and inexperienced than experienced and unable to tackle.
Experience eventually comes. Inability to tackle rarely does.

Open up the play book!
Posted by: Ashley Farrington | November 01, 2009 at 01:22 PM
curiious--henne telegraphed that from the snap...ginn didn't even try to sell that out route (with their best CB nonetheless)....c'mon man...simms says henne had single coverage if he looks right
Posted by: big i | November 01, 2009 at 01:22 PM
time to spread it out then run. just dont abandon the run keep pounding it. they will get tired.
Posted by: dave | November 01, 2009 at 01:22 PM
Come on D
Posted by: Eddy007 | November 01, 2009 at 01:22 PM
I agree with Marc, the Ginn route looked slow.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | November 01, 2009 at 01:23 PM

Posted by: nyfinfan | November 01, 2009 at 01:23 PM

Posted by: harricane | November 01, 2009 at 01:23 PM
We need a turnover....Sanchez sucks
Posted by: jared | November 01, 2009 at 01:23 PM
nice job
Posted by: dave | November 01, 2009 at 01:23 PM
Mandy, you spoke to me! *Flattered* I wasn't complaining. Just stating fact. Might not hurt to have a vet safety
Posted by: Marc | November 01, 2009 at 01:23 PM

Has Kendall Langford made a play this year yet?
He's been invisible.
Posted by: Joel | November 01, 2009 at 01:24 PM

Posted by: Marc | November 01, 2009 at 01:25 PM
roth covering a TE equals a completion
Posted by: Kevin | November 01, 2009 at 01:25 PM
TE's always kill us! WTF!
Posted by: el guru | November 01, 2009 at 01:25 PM
Roth lookin cocky!
Posted by: Po White Trash | November 01, 2009 at 01:26 PM
Looks like we are covering down field
Posted by: Standley23 | November 01, 2009 at 01:26 PM
Roth is a beast
Posted by: Stonecld33 | November 01, 2009 at 01:26 PM
I think the long ball to Ginn is going to be there today.
Posted by: Mark D | November 01, 2009 at 01:26 PM
wrap up 53!
Posted by: Marc | November 01, 2009 at 01:26 PM
what happen to the pressure?
Posted by: Kevin | November 01, 2009 at 01:26 PM
te coverage again?
Posted by: big i | November 01, 2009 at 01:26 PM
Is it me or does Roth look a little overweight???
Posted by: el guru | November 01, 2009 at 01:27 PM
Fish look stout against the run.
Posted by: Mark D in London | November 01, 2009 at 01:27 PM
You better believe JT is pissed off he's giving up snaps to Matt Roth. I will definitely ask him about that after the game.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | November 01, 2009 at 01:27 PM
It kinda baffles me that Jp and JT can be on the field at the same time and we still can't get pressure
Posted by: Marc | November 01, 2009 at 01:27 PM
nice recognition on the reverse
Posted by: nyfinfan | November 01, 2009 at 01:28 PM
our defensive coordinator always stops doing stuff when it works....ass

Posted by: acwalsh8 | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM
Uh oh ,this is going to get dirty now.
Posted by: Joel | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM
Buckled the hot dog
Posted by: Stonecld33 | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM
Safety blitzes ALWAYS work for us
Posted by: Marc | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM

Posted by: Standley23 | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM

Posted by: nyfinfan | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM
seems strange..taylor playing much better than porter and taylor loses snaps??
Posted by: big i | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM
Great stop. Sanchez may not be able to have his weiner after the game.
Posted by: CarlosVP | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM
Gibril wilson doing Joey Porter's work on Matt Sanchez.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | November 01, 2009 at 01:29 PM
