« Live blog of Dolphins vs. Texans available here | Main | Dolphins losing 16-3 to start the third quarter »
It is a battle of field goals so far.
That's good for the Dolphins because the Texans have dominated this game so far. They drove inside Miami's 20-yard line twice in the first quarter.
They had a 40 yard punt return by Jacoby Jones.
And still they're only down, 6-3.

Wow, if we lose Carpenters ability to put little points on the board we are completely screwed.
I think we may actually be looking at a team that's vying for the top pick in next year's draft. I'll bet we pick a placeholder with the top pick.

They better go for it Carpenter doesn't have it Today
Posted by: David | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
Carpenter is this games Fasano (momentum killer)
Posted by: robbyhernz | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
It's reported that the FIST PUMP will need Xrays at half time.
Posted by: NY "G" | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
marshall has to catch the pass if it hit you in the hands. unbelievable and now carpenter can't kick? c'mon, no fistpumping either? this is getting lame.

I knew I'd get your attention
Posted by: Bkaczor1 | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
armando, what do you make of this?
Posted by: austin | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
exactly right Austin thats one of many reasons, he trhows flat passes not much arc to it whole league knows it from tape
Posted by: FinFan4life | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
if they lose and still keep the fo in tact we are screwed fellow fans. We dont need a qb we need about 40 other players and a new FO
Posted by: ctphins | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
Hey dummmy, pass wouldn't have been deflected if Marshall caught the pass. The same exact pass I just watched a rookie wr catch in the endzone from Smith.
Posted by: LouD | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
LMAO AUSTIN... really how does that work? what is henne supposed to do? look in a different direction when he throws it to a Wr. cmon man
Posted by: Chase | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
All the d. Thomas was a wasted piCk posters need to STFU. Dude is a beast!
Posted by: Jaison | September 18, 2011 at 05:27 PM
Deadbolt brain farts when he gets in the red zone.

Kim are You answering on marc's sn? If so I'll do the split 50/50
Posted by: grrreatdane | September 18, 2011 at 05:27 PM
Another week, another player to fire.
Posted by: Angry Elf | September 18, 2011 at 05:27 PM
point is, we shouldn't be kicking field goals.
Posted by: The real G | September 18, 2011 at 05:27 PM
The One i agree a lot of his throws seem on the money hes put a couple of his passes right where only his guy can get them. the oline is protecting him long enough at times and that drop by marshall was heart breaking
Posted by: Jimbo | September 18, 2011 at 05:27 PM
VD on AJ's back and still got burned...
Posted by: Marc | September 18, 2011 at 05:27 PM
mike shula for head coach asap.
Posted by: nj fins force | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
Andre Johnson makes the catch. Brandon Marshall drops the ball. Our reality! Why?

coach time. what the hell we will get a number one pick and draft a kicker
Posted by: ctphins | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
If we dont get chunk yardage plays all the way to the endzone we're still going to struggle to score. We're fvucking killing ourselves.
Now Carpenter cant even kick chip shots. Like I posted in the last blog, evry week a different unit comes out of nowhere to contribute to a loss.
Thats a huge coaching issue folks. All 3 units are never on the same page in formula for victory play. Sparano must go!
Posted by: DyingBreed | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
hey chase...keep laughing..do you see brady get 3 passes deflected in a half? common, man
Posted by: austin | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
...Carpenter is doing this team a favor..Seriously. If we cannot find ways to score TD's. We shouldn't get to be bailed out by FG's every time. The coaches need to figure out a way to get the freekin ball in the endzone..
Posted by: Darryl Dunphy | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
Labrigada you want us to give Daboll crap for one play because we give Henning crap for 3 years of incompetence? Do people actually think before they post?
Posted by: LouD | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
So what game is Spomoron finally fired?
Posted by: Earl | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
Griese to Warfield-Johnson makes a catch-is Wallace not playing again?
Posted by: David | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
TS started the FIST PUMP but the pass was caught not an INT.
Posted by: NY "G" | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
Andre Johnson is the best WR in the NFL. Period.
Megatron second.
Fitzgerald third.
Marshall is in the conversation for top 5, too, but it's not close after the top 3.

If I'm gonna open up the wallet I wanna be on said video
Posted by: grrreatdane | September 18, 2011 at 05:23 PM
I'll split it with you...The $ and video, LOL
Posted by: Marc | September 18, 2011 at 05:24 PM
Keep dreaming boys. I don't even do the guy i'm with now. This is a chocolate-only zone.
Posted by: Kim Kardashian | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
Unstoppable!! Where the f is the pash rush!!
Posted by: robbyhernz | September 18, 2011 at 05:28 PM
Also, Sean smith is a better CB than Davis. Most times QB's don't even go after smith.
Posted by: Jaison | September 18, 2011 at 05:29 PM
He does, 100%
Man, I am starting to feel desperation. Really.

THE GODS HATE THE FINS AND LOVE HOUSTON
We stole their stupid song!

We actually don't look terrible
Posted by: Bkaczor1 | September 18, 2011 at 05:29 PM

Jets & Bufallo won.
Patriots, will.
Man...
Posted by: Lutz Alexander Keferstein | September 18, 2011 at 05:30 PM
We have to catch the passes from Henne he cannot do it all now
Posted by: The One | September 18, 2011 at 05:30 PM
Austin Brady has had two passes deflected in the first half, I'm watching the game. But you're right, it's not 3.

We desperately need a turnover
Posted by: Chase | September 18, 2011 at 05:30 PM
ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD!!!
Posted by: Earl | September 18, 2011 at 05:30 PM
Ugly game. Off leaves 10 points on the field and d can't pressure qb
Posted by: Jethater | September 18, 2011 at 05:30 PM
Well... this one is going to be over at halftime. The Dolphins could easily be leading this game. Instead, they're going to be getting blown out at halftime.
Amazing.
Posted by: The New Kid | September 18, 2011 at 05:31 PM
Andre Johnson has more family and friends in the stadium than dolphins fans! LOL...
Posted by: DyingBreed | September 18, 2011 at 05:31 PM
The Dolphins need a turnover badly. They need to steal back momentum.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 18, 2011 at 05:31 PM
Maybe the problem with our pass rush is they play our O-line everyday at practice....
Posted by: acwalsh8 | September 18, 2011 at 05:31 PM
Sporeanus gets it in week 9! By then the Dolphins will be 1 and 8 they will manage win against the practice squad on the bye week.
Posted by: Why Me | September 18, 2011 at 05:31 PM
Hey dummmy, pass wouldn't have been deflected if Marshall caught the pass. The same exact pass I just watched a rookie wr catch in the endzone from Smith.
Posted by: LouD | September 18, 2011 at 05:26 PM
LouD. what Marshall can't miss a catch? Is there a WR in the league that catches every ball? Geez I wish some people would think before they post.
Posted by: La Brigada | September 18, 2011 at 05:31 PM
empty stadium what ajoke

Thanks captain obvious...armando
Posted by: Bkaczor1 | September 18, 2011 at 05:31 PM
At least VD can tackle! Neither him nor SEAN SMITH can cover this year (or last for SMITH)
Posted by: Marc | September 18, 2011 at 05:32 PM
Marshall keeps dropping easy TD passes won't be in my top 5 mando
Posted by: Jethater | September 18, 2011 at 05:32 PM
Will the last guy leaving please shut off the lights. LOL...
Posted by: DyingBreed | September 18, 2011 at 05:32 PM
without doubt. Vontae is one of the best tackling corners in the NFL
Posted by: Chase | September 18, 2011 at 05:32 PM
I thought the biggest improvement comes between game 1 and 2
