The Dolphins showed a little fight in the third quarter by outscoring Houston, 7-0.
But they will need a major league comeback to make up the 27-10 deficit they are currently staring at.
Join me in the comments section for thefourth quarter and the finish of this live blog







10 mins left, 17 down, game over

LOL@Jersey...Haven't looked @ his typepad, but, I think the fact he's a Giants fan pretty much negates whatever credibility he had...Which was pretty much non-existant to begin with...

Hilliard's a beast!
Posted by: fansince72 | December 27, 2009 at 03:38 PM

Posted by: Angry Fin Fan | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
Two possession game now. Can the defense hold the Texans?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
Well we did it in less than 4 minutes like I said, now we need the ball back quick
Posted by: Chewyphins | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
hilliards done his job on all season
Posted by: 99Blitz | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
Where's the flag? Lol. Unreal. I can't celebrate anymore till I see them line up for the EP. :)
Posted by: DevilDog | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
onside kick?
Posted by: Angry Fin Fan | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
ummm not sure whether or not to be excited.. i'm thinking not..
the Fins are over due for a blunder.
Posted by: Image | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
Bs call. Winter has history of bad calls on us. But he's considered one of the best. Here come the fins again. We never give up but sure make it hard
Posted by: Finfan23 | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
earl ONLY 10 down
See how the deep pass opened up the short passes AND the runs
Posted by: Mike W | December 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
wtg fins...go for 1 really Sparano...good math for once...did he need to do that?
Posted by: JLuck | December 27, 2009 at 03:40 PM
Fins have matched the 17pts I first predicted for them. LOL
Posted by: DyingBreed | December 27, 2009 at 03:40 PM
FALSE HOPE, THE HOLE WAS TOO BIG
Posted by: Earl | December 27, 2009 at 03:40 PM
Collins and Austin are going nowhere , especially with a uncapped year. Their teams won't let them go . they're in the prime of their career and having big years. ENOUGH !! CASE CLOSED.!!!
Posted by: NJ PHIN FAN | December 27, 2009 at 03:40 PM
It's time for Sean Smith to get his pick 6.
Posted by: Tommya | December 27, 2009 at 03:40 PM
Did Miami think it was powder puff week? Because they look like a bunch of women playing out there.
If a good effort is made good things will come and with that said this Miami team has put in almost no effort in this game. This entire team has given up and its evident when Sparano choose to punt the ball instead of going for it on fourth down. Why didn't they just forfeit the game? Its obvious they gave up.

Funny he's gone now...Maybe he's trying to figure out how to delete his account...
Posted by: Marc | December 27, 2009 at 03:41 PM
Little late, but at least we haven't thrown in the towel. I'm sure the refs will stop our momentum any minute now
Posted by: Dolphinben | December 27, 2009 at 03:41 PM
Still not 'nough time. Not with our defense unable to produce three and outs.
Posted by: Dreesen | December 27, 2009 at 03:41 PM
The dolphins are going to win this game
Posted by: Kevin11c | December 27, 2009 at 03:41 PM
If we win the defense is going to have to show up the rest of the year for the fullgame
Posted by: Wash96 | December 27, 2009 at 03:41 PM
So the first half of the season, we were great in the first half, terrible in the second. Now, we are terrible on the first half, great in the second. Very frustrating.

TURN OVER TIME
TURN OVER TIME
TURN OVER TIME

Mando - do you know if the Fins practice onside kicking this week?
Posted by: Image | December 27, 2009 at 03:42 PM
CALL HOLDING!!!
Posted by: Wayne Fontes | December 27, 2009 at 03:43 PM
I have to give our team credit...they don't give up...I stilll think we can pull this off!
Posted by: PMTamayo | December 27, 2009 at 03:43 PM
DAMN
can't the Refs call holding on the TExans line?
Posted by: Mike W | December 27, 2009 at 03:43 PM

Posted by: Angry Fin Fan | December 27, 2009 at 03:43 PM

The Texans have been picking on Nate Jones all day long.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | December 27, 2009 at 03:44 PM
Has C. Wake seen any action today?
Posted by: Jules | December 27, 2009 at 03:44 PM
That does it no pressure
Posted by: Chewyphins | December 27, 2009 at 03:44 PM
Like I said, D cannot produce a 3 and out. That's why we had to go for it earlier
Over fellas
Posted by: Dreesen | December 27, 2009 at 03:45 PM
our LBs tackle the rb and they fall forward for 4 yards, our RBs get tackled and leave the game
Posted by: Angry Fin Fan | December 27, 2009 at 03:45 PM
Thank god the clock stopped we need this stop
Posted by: Chewyphins | December 27, 2009 at 03:45 PM
Thank u lord!!!
Posted by: Chewyphins | December 27, 2009 at 03:46 PM
3 more mins gone on that drive. Houston should have run on those two plays and we'd be down to 5 mins.
Posted by: Dreesen | December 27, 2009 at 03:47 PM
We need a td or fg in under 3 minutes
Posted by: Chewyphins | December 27, 2009 at 03:47 PM
No picks.
Posted by: Wayne Fontes | December 27, 2009 at 03:48 PM
The dolphins are going to win this game
Posted by: Kevin11c | December 27, 2009 at 03:48 PM
Quick score!!!'
Posted by: Hennething | December 27, 2009 at 03:48 PM
I've been saying it, the Texans have been helping the Dolphins ever since the second quarter.
They are beatable!
Posted by: Armando Salguero | December 27, 2009 at 03:48 PM
now we need a quick TD.
Posted by: dave | December 27, 2009 at 03:48 PM
how big was the Carpenter missed FG?
Posted by: Mike W | December 27, 2009 at 03:49 PM
Yo we need 7 points in a hurry!! Maybe blind man ron winter will call a pass interference call on the texans!!!
Posted by: Angry Fin Fan | December 27, 2009 at 03:49 PM
Steelers Ravens tied @ 20
Posted by: Marc | December 27, 2009 at 03:49 PM
85 yds in <3 mins. Fat chance. Maybe a FG, but not likely. 8 yds a pop don't cut it.
Posted by: Dreesen | December 27, 2009 at 03:49 PM
NJ,
Concerning an uncapped year, nothing's written in stone yet Mr negative. If it is an uncapped year say goodbye to our hopes of fixing what really needs to be fixed this offseason you unloyal bum! LOL
Posted by: DyingBreed | December 27, 2009 at 03:49 PM
Henne needs to learn how to throw a ball away...
Posted by: Joe | December 27, 2009 at 03:49 PM

Posted by: Angry Fin Fan | December 27, 2009 at 03:50 PM
Got to go for it on fourth down. Nooooooo!
