The Dolphins offense had a nice opening drive and Ryan Tannehill got his first NFL TD on a 2 yard run.
Good.
The bad?
The Raiders just pieced together a 64-yard screen pass TD in which Reshad Jones was held, Chris Clemons took a bad angle to the ballcarrier, Koa Misi got pancaked and Karlos Dansby could only trail helplessly as he watched the score.
The game is tied, 7-7.
The live blog rolls in the comments section. Join me there.







Raiders held big time on that play.

BURNETT MANHANDLED WORST IN NFL HISTORY
Posted by: CAM PHILBIN AND JAKE LONG SUCK | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
the hold on wake was obvious.
Posted by: austin | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
192 yds for Palmer in the 1st Half.
Posted by: navydolfaninva | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
Kevin Burned'ett. F that guy. Get rid of him NOW!
Posted by: Amin NYC | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
Yeah right, Bellichik has Tom Brady to put points on the scoreboard too. Teams playing catch up are one dimensional and easier to defense. You guys are such simpletons its ridiculous.
Posted by: Yesterday'sGone | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
Great tackling! Now the defense is tired!
Posted by: flyrodderbob | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
These LB's may be worse then the secondary. Just horrible
Posted by: Jon | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
Told you.
Posted by: JackSparrow | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
David Auberry is going to be busy tonight -- in the nighmares of kevin Burnett and Chris Clemons.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 16, 2012 at 02:20 PM
Nice if we could tackle
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
GET LANE THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE CAN DO THAT TOO
Posted by: CAM PHILBIN AND JAKE LONG SUCK | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
Burnett is the biggest joke in the NFL. Man couldn't tackle a 6 year old boy.
Posted by: Jersey Shore Dude | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
That's the point I was trying to make RB's.
Posted by: The Biocentric | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
Dansby n Burnett need to be traded before deadline they aren't even as good as misi

The second quarter continues! WTH?
Posted by: flyrodderbob | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
Just got shoved like a little boy.
I hope that we can hold them to a field goal and then we can take a knee before the half.

WHERE IS LITTLE OVERRATED OVERPAID CFL CAMMIE WAKE?
Posted by: CAM PHILBIN AND JAKE LONG SUCK | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
The implosion is on. This game is gonna be over soon.

i is YG nd i think i no football but i hide behind my names cuz i is a ninja! do u see me? nooooo u doooonnnnnttttt! but really i only no little football cuz i is sensible nd ignorant LOL
Posted by: iIsDrunken | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
how-many holding calls are NOT going to be call on Oakland? How many tackles can we miss-Sean Smith-wow!!!
Posted by: David | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
come on D make a play!!
Posted by: dave | September 16, 2012 at 02:21 PM
Told you. They should have run the clock out, tied at 7, play for the FB. Sniff at the TD.
Posted by: JackSparrow | September 16, 2012 at 02:22 PM
Burnett is a waste. Can't believe we haven't cut that a-hole yet.
Posted by: Sam | September 16, 2012 at 02:22 PM
CAN WE CUT LONG AT HALF TIME?
Posted by: CUT LONG NOW | September 16, 2012 at 02:22 PM
Too early to fire a D-Coordinator? There is actually some talent on the Defense, yet this guy is horrible with schemes, running stunts, disguising blitz, etc.
Posted by: Jon | September 16, 2012 at 02:22 PM
Okay...The defense has looked terrible here & Dansby missed badly on a tackle.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
Richard Marshall, who has been in the locker room this series, is back on the sideline.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
defense is tired of always getting no help from their own offense..so yea their getting gashed....
Posted by: superPHIN | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
Penalty deserved, but may pay dividends down the road. Rex Ryan type play.
Too bad they thought of it inside our 20 yard line, instead of on the raider's side of the field
Typical slow reacting Fins D.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
Jack that's an idiot comment. Yes let's be happy with 7-7, that's been our problem! No nfl team runs a second half clock out. Grow uo
Posted by: inimounts | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
GUYS, OAKLAND IS A WEAK TEAM. THIS SHOWS WHAT WE REALLY ARE.
WE WILL BE LUCKY TO WIN 3 GAMES THIS YEAR.
Posted by: CUT LONG NOW | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
We Have Rbs, why aren't you kissing Dansby's butt now? Doesn't taste good or what?
Posted by: Jersey Shore Dude | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
Guys,
Say what you want about coaching, play calling, whatever. Bottomline, 5th yr in Ireland's done a poor job assembling talent on this team. Heck, he's even chased away talent. Truly pathetic 5yrs in.
Fire Ireland now!
Posted by: Yesterday'sGone | September 16, 2012 at 02:23 PM
That was covered well
Posted by: Rut | September 16, 2012 at 02:24 PM
Nice D you losers got there. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Posted by: Patriot Games | September 16, 2012 at 02:24 PM
Oakland isn't week, they will challenge for their division this year. Like they did last year. And they start strong lately
Posted by: inimounts | September 16, 2012 at 02:24 PM
i is YG nd no one here likes me but thats ok! i is sensible and ignorant so i dont care what u think cuz i is like zeus, god of the blog! nd u is not so i win hahaha LOL
Posted by: iIsDrunken | September 16, 2012 at 02:24 PM
Carson Palmer could have a 500 yard day by the time it's all said and done. We're all worried about Tannehill, but this Defense sucks.
Posted by: navydolfaninva | September 16, 2012 at 02:24 PM
We better call timeouts if the clock is ever running!
Posted by: inimounts | September 16, 2012 at 02:25 PM
Jake Long needs to be trade, he can't stop no one today.
Posted by: paul | September 16, 2012 at 02:25 PM
We need a TE WR Left tackle half time
Posted by: David | September 16, 2012 at 02:25 PM
WE NEED TO GO TO A WISHBONE OR WILDCAT. SERIOUSLY. WE HAVE ONLY 2 WRS (HARTLINE AND BESS). NANEE IS USELESS. MIGHT AS WELL HAVE A TE OR BIG FB/RB IN ON EVERY PLAY INSTEAD OF THAT WR OUT THERE WASTING SPACE.
PUT 3 GUYS IN THE BACKFIELD BEHIND THE QB LIKE FLORIDA GATORS DID YESTERDAY. BUSH AND MILLER ON THE FIELD TOGETHER.
AND LANE.
DO IT. I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING
IT WILL NOT HAPPEN BUT I AM CORRECT THAT IT WOULD BE BETTER THAN WHAT WE ARE DOING.
Posted by: CUT LONG NOW | September 16, 2012 at 02:25 PM
JANOCKOWSKI THEIR KICKER WOUDL BE BETTER AT LT THAN LONG. SERIOUSLY. DUDE OBVIOUSLY USES ROIDS
Posted by: CUT LONG NOW | September 16, 2012 at 02:26 PM
This game is over. I'm with you, Sparrow.
Posted by: Liberal Heterosexual | September 16, 2012 at 02:26 PM
They could have gotten Wake for the horse collar. He's touched Palmer at least twice and couldn't get him down...
Posted by: Marc | September 16, 2012 at 02:26 PM
You know Jerry Jones would be dumb enough to give a 1 & 2 for Long. Just sayin'
Posted by: Jon | September 16, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Left tackle jake long trade talks and running the clock out with almost 6 left....damn I hate some of these retarded fans.
Posted by: inimounts | September 16, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Clemons is the worst safety in the league.
Please Gibril come back!!!
Posted by: Gibril please come back | September 16, 2012 at 02:26 PM
We suck so bad, its not even funny.
Posted by: Jersey Shore Dude | September 16, 2012 at 02:26 PM
i is YG i dnt care bout u cuz u is not zeus like i is LOL lightning bolt yo azzzz LOL
Posted by: iIsDrunken | September 16, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Philbin, please run the clock out. Don't make the same mistake you made last week. Let's go in to the half with confidence as we made a nice stop on D and held them to a field goal.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | September 16, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Time for a kneel.
Posted by: Amin NYC | September 16, 2012 at 02:27 PM
It's 7-7! Wtf are u guys seriously mentally disturbed? We are still in this.
Posted by: inimounts | September 16, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Man we are not good. This is going to be a long season. The good news is I see no scenario where Ireland keeps his job after this season. So somebody else will at least be making those draft selections.
Posted by: JJ | September 16, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Still no complimentary pass rusher to Wake. Vernon? I never heard of him even when he was at the U. Is this the best you can do Mr Ireland?
Posted by: Yesterday'sGone | September 16, 2012 at 02:27 PM
missed holding calls are a killer...and then roughing in wilson? how do you hold up there.
Posted by: austin | September 16, 2012 at 02:27 PM
That should have been 7. Miami got lucky.
Not sure why they gave Palmer 3 minutes to run a 2 minute drill.
