Jets lead the Dolphins 17-6 to start fourth quarter

Reggie Bush has a neck injury and his return is questionable.

Sean Smith is also out of the game because he has cramps. His return is questionable.

It is also questionable the Dolphins can mount a comeback against the Jets, as they trail 17-6.

Let's see if the can.

Delay of game. How embarrassing

[Pathetic franchise]

lol, delay of game!! We couldn't even challenge. FU TONY, YOU GREASER!

[John007]

Sporano's interview text from tomorrow..."Okay we showed some really good effort last night, okay. Okay, the defense played really well in the first half, okay, but got a little tired in the second half, okay, because the offense struggled a little, okay. Then Reggie got hurt okay in the third quarter okay and that really hurt us okay. I've told my guys to forget the Jets okay and think about Denver okay." Reporters response to that will be "okay".

[redsky]

Can't catch a ball or a break!!!!

[john]

CHALLENGE THE PLAY!!!! What the hell is going on??? THEN a delay of game. DAMMIT!!!!

[Steve]

what a joke this Off is with Matt Moore, Lordy

[CreteJohn]

I have never seen a professional team give up quite as obvious as this

[Bootris]

Feed the Deer!Ross just vomited all over Carl Peterson. Pathetic. And why didnt Tony try for something at the end of the half w one time out left. He is a gutless meatball, maybe we should make Tony Jr quality controller extordinaire acting head coach.

[sagneul]

souless team!!!
i remember tony saying: this is gonna be an amazing season!!.. im very excited!!!
ja!

[Turd Ferguson]

Panthers scored 7. Pressure is on Phins. Don't get beat by a hockey team.

[sevensharp]

We have such poor execution Marshall didnt even get himself kicked out of the game.

[Steve]

nice punt!!!!! awesome, take a drink

[yesterday's gone]

WHEN THE JETS FINALLY FIGURE OUT MIAMI HAS QUIT. THEY'LL SCORE FAR MORE POINTS!

[DKM]

Lol I hope we lose the rest of our games! There I said it

[Swamy]

BRING IN ROSENFELS!

[Akguy]

There is one thing I can tell you for sure. The Jets will go 0-3 the next 3 games. You can put money on it. They are not a good team.

[Angry Elf]

Be a man, Armando. Or find a buddy in the press corps who will hold this fraud of a coaching team accountable.

[finsfan72]

6 more field goals and we go into OT. FIST PUMP!

[VENOM]

I'm not going to write anything else. This is too sad the coach has quit. It's just too embarrassing.

[Bootris]

I actually couldnt stand to watch anymore of this debacle. Was a trip when all 8 commentators picked the Jets. This may be a low point of the franchise. Trade Marshall asap because he is all hat, no cattle.

[sevensharp]

Feed the dear!! LMAO

[vx-jeff]

Understatement of the night. It's going to be a long 11 games for Miami fans

[Bkaczor1]

Sparano couldn't throw the flag... His mind is somewhere else...he knows this is it.

[woody5077]

Ok, I can't do this anymore. At some point we have to stop punishing ourselves with this BS. Goodnight everyone, sorry we are Dolphins fans. Ross, fix it or get the he'll out.

[Chase]

Not that it really matters... But the refs did a piss poor job tonite.

1) missed an obvious pass IF on Revis which led to a TD.

2) there is absolutely no way that they should have been able to overturn that Catch by marshall. It looked to me that both there hands were under it. IT DEFINATELY wasnt 100% conclusive

3) Although the game was pretty much over. There was a clear block in the back that led to the Santonio TD. Clear as it gets

[Chris in the 623]

Burnett's play on that last score sums up the season so far.

[buckeyephinfan]

Brandon fields is the only reason the game is this close. We blow goats! Andrew luck start looking for real estate in south Florida now.

[vince from canada]

Odrik, another one of our wonderful 1st round wasted picks. Who the hell does the scouting for our team??? Stevie Wonder?

[MiamiD20]

By the way to all the Moore fans: ..|.,

Not that Henne is much better but he was at least better; we all knew Moore sucked. If you wanted change make it positive, not another Joey harrington.

[scott from delaware]

THIS IS THE WORST DOLPHINS TEAM EVER AND THAT INCLUDES THE 1-15 SEASON AT LEAST THAT YEAR THEY FOUGHT HARD, I AM TELLING YOU WE MAY GO 0-16 AND WE GOT SOME DOGS COMING UP, JEFF IRELAND AND TONY SHOULD BE FIRED FOR THE TEAM THEY PUT TOGETHER AND PARCELLS SHOULD GIVE HIS MONEY BACK

[THE BRA1N]

'76 Bucs, '07 Lions, '11 Dolphins. I wonder if Ross will cry like the last owner the next time they win a game in 2012.

[yesterday's gone]

I POSTED IN A BLOG TODAY I8 DIDNT SEE MIAMI SCORING 10PTS THIS GAME. IM EMBARRASSED THEYVE PROVEN ME CORRECT!

[SOD]

lay down for landry!

[riosaddles]

Now that New York has the "Occupy Wall Street" protests, how long before Miami has the "Vacate Sun Life Stadium" protests?

[suckforluck]

Mr Ross says Tony Tony he's my man, if he can't get me Luck, no one can!!!!!!!

[Calgaryfinfan]

So two weeks to prep and we can score 6 points. Does that mean we score 3 points next game? What do you fix first? Everything is broken.

[Steve]

No sh*t Bootris, that was unreal, u get a 1st down at mid field and u let the clock run out on purpose, what league do these phins think they are in?????

[FB]

Sparano for President of the Pizza parlor owners association.

[d-dense]

Fire Sparano now, right now Ross. Come down and fire his A S S now!

[austin]

good by, tony.

[TAO]

Kris, Craig M, DC Dolphan, Dying Breed? Crickets....What gives?

[Swamy]

Now we know why Denver was really willing to trade Marshall.

I remember many were against him being a Fin others said let's give him a chance.

Now what?

[finzfan]

While the odds are it will be Packers and Patriots in the Super Bowl, we couldn't beat the Rams in the Toilet Bowl!
Just think about it everyone. This team had 2 weeks to prepare, no flee flickers, no double reverse, no nothing. Face it, this team you see on the field is a direction reflection of coach preparation!
Clap at that Sporano!!!

[Mr. Bing]

Feed the Fairy.

[OHdolfan]

This team is significantly worse than the 1 - 15 team of 2007.

[Frankie White]

Fire sparano and go the rest of the year without a head coach......we haven't had one in two years anyway!!!!

[fool737]

Can we forfeit the rest of the season , fire the whole team and just start completely over next year !!!

[fists of fury]

Just 7 more fist pumps and we win!!!

[fists of fury]

Just 7 more fist pumps and we win!!!

[austin]

well, its obvious sparano has quit. they weren't prepared, and gruden just said as much.

[d-dense]

Fan poll, who thinks Ross should fire Sparano? Hopefully he reads and does some soul searching.

[abe odeh]

Does this mean we have to rebuilt all over again

[catfinfan@yahoo.com]

My God...this is so pathetic. The worst QB play in the NFL. Man I can only hope there is light in the tunnel. Ive been a fan for 38 yrs but this is painful. This team needs a fresh start. Cut bait and move on, running out the clock at the end of the half clinched it for me. No heart from the staff, week 5 and the season is over, what a proud franchise this used to be but no more. Im goin to bed...goodnite Dolfans...

[Jules]

If you enjoy punting, you cannot miss a Phins game!!! I think our punter can make it to the Pro Bowl. Let's hope Sparano is not fired so our can keep on punting so well, and at same time Sucking for Luck! Go Phins!!!

[Chris]

Sean Payton is faster than Dansby

[yesterday's gone]

Kris, Craig M, DC Dolphan, Dying Breed? Crickets....What gives?

Posted by: TAO | October 17, 2011 at 11:06 PM

IM HERE(DYINGBREED). JUST NOT DOING BLUE ANYMORE! LOL....

[vince from canada]

My God.

[riosaddles]

Since Stephen Ross is contributing the devaluation of the Dolphins and by extension the NFL brand as a whole, what are the chances the NFL would assume full ownership of the team similar to how the NBA took over the New Orleans Hornets?

[SOD]

blow for barkley!

[SoiledBottom]

Gruden ripping Dolphins right now
