GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Dolphins are holding on to a 13-7 lead but the third quarter was a heart-wrencher not for the faint of heart.
Ryan Tannehill threw one interception and only a instant replay challenge saved him from a second.
Dan Carpenter missed another field goal attempt -- this one from 51 yards.
And the defense yielded its first TD of the day on Larry Fitzgerald TD catch.

Posted by: superPHIN | September 30, 2012 at 06:27 PM
great way to start the 4th quarter. How many drives can the D hold them off? :(

Sherman needs to be told this is not a collage game. sheeesh!
Posted by: Original orange crush | September 30, 2012 at 06:28 PM

Orange, what do you see as Sherman's mistake?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 30, 2012 at 06:28 PM
HE can't run, block or catch, what exactly CAN Thomas do?
Posted by: nyfinfan | September 30, 2012 at 06:29 PM
The dumb trick run call, just run it up the middle for an easy 1st down
Posted by: Joey | September 30, 2012 at 06:29 PM
You know.
I wanted to give Tannehill at least half a season before I posted this.
But he sucks. He stares down WRs. He cant make intermediate throws to the sideline.
he either throws it deep or checks it down. All intermediate routes are interceptions waiting to happen.
WORST QB RATING IN THE LEAGUE BY OVER 20 POINTS.
HE SUCKS

Our d is going to have to create a turnover to win this gm... It's too bad it has to be like this. If only carpenter could make a friggen fg!
Posted by: Chase | September 30, 2012 at 06:29 PM
yikes. did not need that to happen. so Thomas is still a better pass blocker than miller?
Posted by: Okizzle | September 30, 2012 at 06:29 PM
Thomas again.
We haven't had a back who can block since Ronnie Brown.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 30, 2012 at 06:29 PM
Dolphins could still win this game even if Cards score another TD. Drive it down and let Carpenter...oh wait!
Posted by: Direland | September 30, 2012 at 06:29 PM
If a rb(Thomas) cant pass protect against a safety, he has no business in the nfl.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 30, 2012 at 06:29 PM
well, for one armando...why the hell would you picth it 5 yrds back on a 2nd and two???
Posted by: superPHIN | September 30, 2012 at 06:30 PM
Dolphins lose to Cardinals 14-13 to finish 4th. quarter
Dolphins lead Cards 13-7 to start fourth quarter
Dolphins lead Cardinals 13-0 going to third quarter
Posted by: tony in Miami | September 30, 2012 at 06:30 PM
The Dolphins need trust the J-Train in short yardage situations, like the 2nd and 2 that we gave it to Bush for a big loss...
Posted by: Jules | September 30, 2012 at 06:30 PM
Karlos Dansby with the dirty bird sack and dance.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 30, 2012 at 06:30 PM
Defense keeps coming up HUGE today. Its refreshing to see.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 30, 2012 at 06:31 PM
Carpenters body language is not real good right now.
Thank God Tanny's still is.
Love to see rashad Jones on a safety blitz.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 30, 2012 at 06:31 PM
Cameron Wake with his fourth sack of the day. That is his career high.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 30, 2012 at 06:31 PM
4 sacks already!!!
Posted by: David | September 30, 2012 at 06:31 PM
4 sacks for Wake?
Posted by: tony in Miami | September 30, 2012 at 06:31 PM
Whoever called 4 sacks for Wake is right on today! LOL
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 30, 2012 at 06:32 PM
wow. a GREAT way for the D to start off the 4th Quarter. Just need to get some points now on O. No mistakes.
Posted by: ADH | September 30, 2012 at 06:32 PM
Atta boy dansby n wake. Get sum!! Leaders at work
Posted by: Chase | September 30, 2012 at 06:32 PM
u PEOPLE ARE HILARIOUS!!
WAS THAT CONSERVATIVE?
Yes, It didn't work. But if the Flip would've been right and Bush more than likely breaks the Guy thats a 20-30 yd Gain!
Just say U hate Sherman. The Run game hasn't been working today. Look how many passing Yards we Have. T-hill might have 300 yds!!!
Yeah, thats bad playcalling!!!
WAY TO GO DEFENSE!!!
OUR CONDITIONING SHOULD TAKE OVER THIS QUARTER!!
Posted by: Dashi | September 30, 2012 at 06:32 PM
best game our LB's have played all year.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 30, 2012 at 06:32 PM
BEASTTTTTTT!
Posted by: nyfinfan | September 30, 2012 at 06:32 PM
Devonne Bess=fair catch
Posted by: David | September 30, 2012 at 06:32 PM
Wow, our guys are rally using their hands, arms!
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 30, 2012 at 06:33 PM
wake strikes again!!!!!!! #4 baby!!!!!
Posted by: Okizzle | September 30, 2012 at 06:33 PM
the stragedy is for the cards to play not to win it but for miami to lose it!!!
Posted by: superPHIN | September 30, 2012 at 06:33 PM
Give it to theJ-Train!
Posted by: Jules | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
Let's get Fasano down the seam.
Posted by: Angry Elf | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
can anyone answer my Q??
when tanny handed the ball to bush could bush have thrown it away and not get a flag????
the D has kept us in this game so far, offence needs at least 3pts to take the pressure off the D today
Posted by: Reg | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
A TD on this drive could seal the game for the PHINS.
Posted by: dbmfins | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
Another 3 and out.
WE SUCK AGAIN
Posted by: The Fins Suck | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
that spot is not right
Posted by: tony in Miami | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
Ugh, we NEED to get the 3rd and shorts converted! just not good enough today.
Posted by: ADH | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
dashi, it was a crappy call. You know it.
Can you quit insulting people when you disagree?
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 30, 2012 at 06:34 PM
Bad bad spot by the refs.
Posted by: dbmfins | September 30, 2012 at 06:35 PM
Idiot refs didnt give forward progress
Posted by: Chase | September 30, 2012 at 06:35 PM
That is a horrible spot. Bring back the replacements.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | September 30, 2012 at 06:35 PM
Again, Adrain Wilson is A Physical FReak. Safety's aren't 6'4" 240. and have 50 inch verticals. Remember this is the guy that jumps out of a pool!!
D.Thomas needs to get better that was a Man he was trying to block!!
Posted by: Dashi | September 30, 2012 at 06:35 PM
A little too conservative, eh?
Posted by: Angry Elf | September 30, 2012 at 06:35 PM
3rd an short. use the j-train!!!!
Posted by: Okizzle | September 30, 2012 at 06:35 PM
Bad spot again.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 30, 2012 at 06:35 PM
Fasano-you can't drag Twiggy 1 yard-wow
Posted by: David | September 30, 2012 at 06:36 PM
this is where miami misses polite so much....
Posted by: superPHIN | September 30, 2012 at 06:36 PM
that was a horrible spot!!!!
Posted by: Okizzle | September 30, 2012 at 06:36 PM
These refs second bad spot.
Posted by: h8dpats | September 30, 2012 at 06:37 PM
Javorskie is perfect on 4th down but 0-fer on 3rd down. Need to get that corrected or give to other RB or let Tanny keep it. :(
Posted by: ADH | September 30, 2012 at 06:37 PM
Tannehill 21-33 299yds. Only 1 yard shy of 1st 300yd passing game. That sack Thomas gave up hurt, or Tannehill would now be over 300yds passing.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 30, 2012 at 06:37 PM
The Lane-Train was robbed on that spot. Loving our D today!
Posted by: NY Fins Fan | September 30, 2012 at 06:38 PM
D.Thomas needs to get better on his play or will be out next year....bad blocker, running 3 yds. every single time his number is called
Posted by: tony in Miami | September 30, 2012 at 06:38 PM
Tannehill sucks.
Posted by: The Fins Suck | September 30, 2012 at 06:38 PM
miami has absolutly zero trust in thomas to pick up 1 yard...that just tells u something about his play ability...
Posted by: superPHIN | September 30, 2012 at 06:38 PM
Ash lane had the yardage just crappy spot.
