Dolphins lead Vikes 7-0 to start 2nd quarter

MINNEAPOLIS -- The Dolphins wanted to knock the Vikings back on their heels today. And they have done it so far.

They've stopped Brett Favre and his offense twice in the first quarter. On offense, they got a 46-yard completion from Chad Henne to Brandon Marshall on their first play. Later Henne completed a five-yard TD pass to Brian Hartline.

The Dolphins are clearly picking on Minny CB Lito Shepard.

Miami leads, 7-0.

Incognito is gonna have a long day

[kris]

can't blame it on the play calling....

[LipsinToronto]

oh wow, that would have been NICE

[DyingBreed]

We're still up 7-0 and playing good D!@!!

[Dexter]

Such awful play calling and execution.

[OhFinFan13]

Don't like the give up play on 3rd and long....

[mr kahn]

run on the outside its always open

[Marc]

We really needed to capitalize there. The pressure is on us right now. 7 point lead isn't much cushion...

[David]

A great special teams unit would have gotten the muffed pun-however, we're doing well so far

[FIn Fans in So Cal]

I think that series was over once they got the sack... then Incognito blew the assignment, nothing to play for everyone was out of sorts.

[DMAN]

2 and 18....we run.....3rd and 17 we run with the full back. WHAT KINDA COORDINATER CALLS THOSE????? AN IDIOT LIKE HENNING!!!!!

[DyingBreed]

7pt lead is a great cushion on the road especially when you score first!!!

[kris]

lets see the int farve

[acwalsh8]

Jason Allen seems like a much improved player. good for him.

[DyingBreed]

Thats ok make'em work for it on this drive "if" they can score!!!

[kris]

we got some tacklers

[DyingBreed]

Why isnt Dansby on Scianco?

[Armando Salguero]

Favre is holding his hand almost constantly.

[FIn Fans in So Cal]

Figures...

[Dexter]

Is Gibril Wilson back there?

[Dolphins4Life73]

i hate when that ref calls our game

[The New Kid]

Yeremiah Bell is terrible in coverage. He simply can't cover a decent opposing TE.

[zaphod]

CRAP!

[kris]

we need a game changing sack

[Armando Salguero]

Yeremiah Bell is angry I don't know why other than the D is getting gashed.

[Los Lobos]

uh oh....should have played to win last series

[IMAWriter]

Again, as in years past, the Fins can't defense the TE up the middle of the field

[DyingBreed]

Face it guys no one expects us to shut the Vikes out!

[el guru]

anybody got a good link to watch the game? I'm stuck overseas...

[acwalsh8]

every week you people kill me.....

one minute you guys are taking it down to the balls....the next....we are terrible.

....shakes head....

[FIn Fans in So Cal]

pick six would be appropriate now.

[DyingBreed]

3pts would be a victory here

[Pound]

Watch the screen!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kris]

send'em back

[DyingBreed]

3pts would be a victory here!

[DyingBreed]

Way to gang tackles guys!!!

[Los Lobos]

this D is pretty good guys. As long as our secondary makes as many big plays as they give up then they can be special this year.

[zaphod]

I call a Pick 6 ...

[kris]

looks like the fins are trying to strip

[Dolphins4Life73]

make them kick field goals

[Marc]

VD!

[DyingBreed]

[FIn Fans in So Cal]

It wasnt a pick six, but i'll take it.

[OhFinFan13]

Let's hope there's not a good angle....

[IMAWriter]

[Armando Salguero]

Childress will ask for replay.

[DyingBreed]

Vontae kept it alive and picked it himself. Outstanding play Vontae babyyyy!!!!!!!!!

[zaphod]
