It's money time.
The Dolphins are one quarter from their first victory of 2011. That's good. But can't say it's been scintilating.
The teams traded field goals in the third quarter. The Dolphins lead 13-10.
The live blog, on the other hand, is scintilating. Join us in the comments section below.

Good one, Sideshow. They didn't sign him for his talent.

Another nailbiter. Glad to be on this side of the score though.
Posted by: DC Dolfan | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
called it, here we go, time for the defense to show their true colors and allow a game winning drive while missing and int or two.
Posted by: jeff | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
Roflmao this is to priceless honestly every 3rd down except maybe once we always throw it 5 yds short of where we need to be
Posted by: Joey | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
Vomit vomit vomit vomit uuuughhhhhhhhhhhh no no no no another FG!!!!
Posted by: Fuad Yepremian | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM

Posted by: DKM | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
Conservative, guys, always conservative.

Posted by: BLAZZIN ACE | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
hey can kick off but he can barely make fg's
Posted by: ctphinsfan | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
YEAH I LOVE FG'S SO MUCH MOST THRILLING PLAY IN THE GAME FIST PUMP
Posted by: Fuad Yepremian | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
Way too conservative after the penalty call. And dialing up Bush between the tackles was just a bad idea.
The FG leaves the door open for Cleveland. They haven't moved the ball much today, but the Dolphin defense has a history of giving up TD's in situations like this. The philosophy should have been TD-or-bust once they got inside the Cleveland 30.
Posted by: The New Kid | September 25, 2011 at 03:40 PM
Dolfans are not rooting for the team to lose. We're just predicting best case scenario for them to end up based on the play theyve been showing.
If they're going to lose, best case scenario for fans is "Suck For Luck"!
Posted by: DyingBreed | September 25, 2011 at 03:41 PM
Cmon browns go down the field....if fins win it feels fake
Posted by: jaycan | September 25, 2011 at 03:41 PM
The Dolphins were 11-5 during Sparano's first yr because of two words: Chad Pennington. They have been atrocious ever since.
Posted by: Angry Elf | September 25, 2011 at 03:41 PM
Here we go!

Here we go. We are screwed.
Posted by: Stinky Fish | September 25, 2011 at 03:41 PM
Phintastic,
Yes, I expected the team to lose their first two games. They lost to two better teams. No doubt about it. Hopefully they hang on to this game and no I don't think they will beat the Chargers next week. I have to look at their schedule closer but I have them finishing about where they were last year, which as we all know isn't good enough.
Posted by: Craig M | September 25, 2011 at 03:42 PM
It's up to our d? we're done
Posted by: Bill | September 25, 2011 at 03:42 PM
I knew they were playing for a fg. Everyone watching could see. "Dont make a mistake chad, dont throw the ball and take any chances here, our defense will hold just get the three. Pathetic.
Posted by: jeff | September 25, 2011 at 03:42 PM
No way they won't blow this.

16-16.. we block xp
Posted by: ctphinsfan | September 25, 2011 at 03:42 PM
If this wasn't a lockout year this team would be much better. A totally new offense needs time. They are getting better and learning who is going to succeed. Before the season started most on this blog were berating henne and calling Thomas a bust. I think both are looking like great players.

Good thing we stunned Cleveland with those FG's when we had the chance.
Posted by: Fuad Yepremian | September 25, 2011 at 03:43 PM
How many people wish we had Buffalo's offense? Yes Buffalo :'(
Posted by: Joey | September 25, 2011 at 03:44 PM
Don't worry guys, even if we lose there's plenty of good things to take away from this loss.
Posted by: Tony Fumblano | September 25, 2011 at 03:44 PM
Really need the defence to step on this drive.
Posted by: Craig M | September 25, 2011 at 03:44 PM
It just occurred to me that the knock on Thomas all pre-season was that he was soft hitting the hole. Yet in the 2 games he's played the dude explodes into the hole.
So is that because he was properly coached or because the coaching staff was wrong? Hmmm.....I think we all know the answer to that one.
Posted by: Sideshow Bill | September 25, 2011 at 03:44 PM
Here comes our defensive krytonite. The 2 minute offense. I think I'll close my eyes!
Posted by: DyingBreed | September 25, 2011 at 03:44 PM
oh yeah carpenter missed one
Posted by: ctphinsfan | September 25, 2011 at 03:44 PM
Buffalo just tied NE 24-24, watch out for the Bills! Nice comeback. Wish we could do that.

Posted by: ctphinsfan | September 25, 2011 at 03:45 PM
Does TS lose his job if they blow this game?
once again, we get in the red zone and come away with a field goal. Pathetic.
Posted by: Matt L | September 25, 2011 at 03:45 PM
Lets go Traitor. You so owe us.
Posted by: Angry Elf | September 25, 2011 at 03:45 PM
We need an INT or a Fumble. Otherwise they're going to score.
