We figured turnovers would play a factor in today's game. So far, so good.
Mark Sanchez threw an interception in the first quarter.
And the Dolphins converted the turnover into a touchdown drive culminated by a Daniel Thomas 2 yard touchdown drive.
Dolphins lead in the turnover and points departments.

Man I'm so sick of hearing about an over paid backup qb
Posted by: qbclub13 | September 23, 2012 at 02:14 PM
Can't cover the TE. That's going on fir years now! Backup players!! No blitzing our defense coach is to conservative! Don't like today's. Defense scheme!
Posted by: ray | September 23, 2012 at 02:14 PM
We must be in really bad shape to have Nolan Carroll and Chris Clemons as starters in our secondary...God they're awful...
Posted by: #1 Dolphin Fan in Montreal | September 23, 2012 at 02:15 PM
I hope they bring a blitz here on 3rd and 3.
Posted by: mike d | September 23, 2012 at 02:15 PM
Armando,
Let us know if Sparano fistpumps a fg ok?
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 02:15 PM
"Don't worry, this is a Sparano FG drive."
LOL@Mando. Looks familiar....
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 02:15 PM
Ray, it's a good thing they've allowed 0 points or else u'd really hate the defensive scheme.
Posted by: robbyhernz | September 23, 2012 at 02:15 PM
I'm afraid of Tebow.
Posted by: oscar canosa | September 23, 2012 at 02:16 PM
Will we see THE fist pump?
Posted by: nyfinfan | September 23, 2012 at 02:17 PM
Nice draft pick!!!
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 02:17 PM
Sean smith just got lucky...
Posted by: Phintastic | September 23, 2012 at 02:17 PM
We have to get smarter, more inventive in the Red Zone, and not put it all on Tannehill.
That said, the QB draw has been used so many times against us, but now we have a weapon in Tannehill to return the favor.
The long developing roll-out never seems to work, as our receivers can't seem to separate.
Dodged a bullet on the pass to Hill.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 23, 2012 at 02:17 PM
Let's run the clock out when we get the ball back. We have the momentum and the ball first in the second half. Also, we only have 1 time out.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
Fist Pump Time Tony!!!! LOL!!!
Posted by: #1 Dolphin Fan in Montreal | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
Jests are still pathetic
Posted by: MiamiD20 | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
Dang!!! To think we'd stopped them on their first 3 plays of this drive!!!!
Posted by: robbyhernz | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
You have a 16 play drive. You get a fourth-down fake punt conversion. And you only get a FG?
That's not a big lift for NYJ.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
TYPICAL, ....Elemental Watson
Posted by: tony in miami | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
I must give credit to Jeff Ireland for one thing, Mike Pouncey is the real deal.
Posted by: nyfinfan | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
FG by Jets. Sparano threw out his shoulder celebrating!
Posted by: mike d | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
FIST PUMP
Posted by: Ohio Dolfan | September 23, 2012 at 02:18 PM
How did Hill drop that???? However, that was the book on him in college. Great size, great speed, suspect hands....
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 02:19 PM
Let us score now.
Posted by: oscar canosa | September 23, 2012 at 02:19 PM
Bengals 24-7...OVER the skins....
Posted by: Kris | September 23, 2012 at 02:19 PM
Don't let Tebow beat you like last-year-more passes deeper in 2nd half-more variety on offense-keep running the ball + involve TE more
Posted by: David | September 23, 2012 at 02:19 PM
Armando,
Did Sparano fistpump the fg?
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 02:19 PM
Get a pic up on that fist pump
Posted by: qbclub13 | September 23, 2012 at 02:19 PM
To conservative no blitz packages by Coyle dude! Really. If we have blitz earlier. We probably scored again. Sanchez is a big time treat on burning us on the blitz.
Posted by: ray | September 23, 2012 at 02:20 PM
Is Tony Sporano still trying to figure out who should be our offensive line starters ?
Posted by: SoiledBottom | September 23, 2012 at 02:20 PM
I have the same questions as YG!!!! was there a fist pump?
Posted by: Ohio Dolfan | September 23, 2012 at 02:21 PM
Dolphins major assignment this series is not scoring points. It is to avoid turnover. Hold the ball long enough to take it into the locker room.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 23, 2012 at 02:21 PM
WTh you mean let the clock run out!
Posted by: oscar canosa | September 23, 2012 at 02:21 PM
Sanchez is not a threat on burning us if we blitz more IMO that's all LET'S GO PHINS KILL THOSE JETSSS
Posted by: ray | September 23, 2012 at 02:22 PM
OK, Dashi gave them a FG.
We need to do a better job on 3rd down. We let teams complete to many passes on 3rd down.
Posted by: Dashi | September 23, 2012 at 02:22 PM
Hartline has turned back into Hartline...
Posted by: Kris | September 23, 2012 at 02:22 PM
I'll take a 10-3 lead into the half, don't give em points please!
Posted by: MiamiD20 | September 23, 2012 at 02:22 PM
Hartline very quite today
Posted by: ray | September 23, 2012 at 02:22 PM
We have to come up with more than Tannehill rollouts on 3rd and goal. Our receivers can't get separation.
QB draw against us for years, we now have a weapon, why not use it.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 23, 2012 at 02:23 PM
Every receiving team get's a block in the back on a kick off because the defender's are turning to get the penalty.
Posted by: David | September 23, 2012 at 02:23 PM
Bad call on that pass to Hartline as it stopped the clock. We should have run the football. The Jets are going to have time on the clock and all 2 timeouts.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | September 23, 2012 at 02:23 PM
Somebody is getting kicked. Bart Scott threw a punch.
Posted by: Dashi | September 23, 2012 at 02:24 PM
WOW, hey refs, how much money you have on the Jests in this game?
Posted by: MiamiD20 | September 23, 2012 at 02:24 PM
"Jests are still pathetic"
MiamiD20,
Of course they are BUT I don't even want to give them a glimmer of hope that they can win today.
Too many penalties today. Philbin is going to lose it on these guys @ halftime.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 02:24 PM
These refs definitely don't like Us.
Posted by: oscar canosa | September 23, 2012 at 02:24 PM
No matter what pro sport, when you play NY, you have to beat NY and you have to beat the refs...Always has, always will...

Welcome to the NFL, Jonathan!
He's a REAL man now, but bad timing.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 23, 2012 at 02:24 PM
ah, Sparano's bad time-outs have infected the Jets!
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 23, 2012 at 02:25 PM
Do these refs only call penalties on the Dolphins?!
Posted by: fins4ever | September 23, 2012 at 02:26 PM
what do we got....
Posted by: Kris | September 23, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Good.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Alright! We are alive!
Posted by: oscar canosa | September 23, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Wow.
These ref's need to get thrown out the game.
The pushing is fine. U can't throw a punch. U know a closed fist. Watch Bart Scott get fined next week! That was a easy call.
Posted by: Dashi | September 23, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Timing is everything! Ha!
Posted by: fins4ever | September 23, 2012 at 02:26 PM
I don't think Smith even touched Fields. LOL!
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 23, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Oh no WHRBs, I want to make the Jests suck their words. I live in NJ and I want to gloat to every pathetic fan I can
Posted by: MiamiD20 | September 23, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Awesome roughing the kicker. Please take a knee Dolphins.
That was a bad call by the way. Thanks refs
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | September 23, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Run it out.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Payback for the blown call
Posted by: Dashi | September 23, 2012 at 02:27 PM
But Bess was wide open in the other side of the End zone. Tannehill needs to survey the field better and stop staring down WR, if someone recording the game go back and see what I'm talking about! He is a rookie but I just hope it is just growing pain and not a bad habit on starring down WR
Posted by: ray | September 23, 2012 at 02:27 PM
He did....Armando.....
