CINCINNATI -- The Dolphins have played terrible so far.
They've committed two turnovers. They've missed tackles. They have been their own worst enemy.
And yet they only trail 6-0. Consider that a blessing because it could be much worse.
We'll see if the team can turn things around. The live blog continues in the comments section below. Join me there.
A game's never won on 1 play. Its won on overall play accross the board. It takes 4qtrs to win or lose a game. When losing you didnt make enough plays over 4qtrs, not 1 half.

He was out but we wont get call

Clear holding on that play right in front of Dalton. That is why it is so tough to win on the road, you often find yourself playing against the opposing team and the refs. They certainly have not favored us in this game.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | October 07, 2012 at 02:23 PM
The whole game seems to be revolving around the refs doing this or not doing this. T
Posted by: Joey | October 07, 2012 at 02:23 PM
refs are not calling an even game. WTF!

Posted by: Dashi | October 07, 2012 at 02:24 PM

Some here need to grow and learn football. Everything that goes wrong on offense isnt play calling.
But some here continue to show lack of overall football knowledge.

Bring replacement reds back
Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:24 PM
Dolphins win this game.
Heed the voice of reason.
Posted by: Angry Elf | October 07, 2012 at 02:25 PM
Wtf dont they try to playfake on 3rd and 1 or even 4th down like the bengals did earlier...just no aggressiveness from this team....they play with the offensive mentality of a rookie, and that is why they lose!!!

Let Tannehill air if out!

Smith doing a good job of "limiting" AJ Green thus far.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | October 07, 2012 at 02:25 PM
D holds again
Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:25 PM
since the replacement refs left Wake has been a beast. He always gets held. It was worse with replacements but still 12 times a game Wake is held.
Posted by: B33RCA53 | October 07, 2012 at 02:25 PM
i am the only 1 that saw a hold on on us on that play?????
Posted by: Reg | October 07, 2012 at 02:25 PM
Andy Dalton has been the Dolphins MVP so far. He has missed A LOT of throws today
Posted by: Jon | October 07, 2012 at 02:25 PM
Nice work running a fat pig behind a fat pig = Sherman is a d bag.

OK men, what do you do with the ball at the 2 yard line with 1:22 to play?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | October 07, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Time to go into the half with a 7-6 lead.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | October 07, 2012 at 02:26 PM
Worst luck... Ball always bounces against them...
Posted by: jtlawson5 | October 07, 2012 at 02:26 PM
great defensive spot. Dalton is really inconsistent .
Posted by: IMAWriter | October 07, 2012 at 02:26 PM

Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:26 PM

Who wants to bet we don't try and score on our last drive before halftime
Posted by: Clue | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Has Miller even been in this game?
Posted by: IMAWriter | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM
take a knee going to halftimme - regroup - maybe set up a play and take out an official - send a message = The Last Yard style...LOL
Posted by: idont usually complain but... | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM
We need a first down!
Posted by: Dashi | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Run the clock down
Posted by: Powhitetrash | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM

Posted by: Jon | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM
Please don't throw the ball
Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM

Posted by: Reg | October 07, 2012 at 02:27 PM
You go long post pattern, Mando.
Posted by: Angry Elf | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM
two weeks ago fans were bitching that we had the best run game and we should just run the balll.. now they're bitching 'cause we dont go deep with a yard to go. no way to keep them happy
Posted by: Arturo | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM
Safe is the play!
Posted by: IMAWriter | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM

Posted by: Powhitetrash | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM
I agree with this call. No need to take a chance.
Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM

Posted by: Clue | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM
Bush can't. stay healthy. Saints got tired of it....
Go Phins!
Posted by: Martin | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM
I guess we have to hear everyone complain about being conservative all week at the half!
Posted by: qbclub13 | October 07, 2012 at 02:28 PM
Sean Smith is like a new man
Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:29 PM
Green limped off, hopefully doesn't return.
Sherman better get Clay involved, or he (Sherman) will hear from my attorneys. LOL
Posted by: IMAWriter | October 07, 2012 at 02:29 PM
48 Marino jerseys in the stands, 1 Boomer Esaison!
Posted by: redsky | October 07, 2012 at 02:29 PM
DOLPHINS WIN! DOLPHINS WIN! DOLPHINS WIN!
...the half.
Posted by: Angry Elf | October 07, 2012 at 02:30 PM
Mando,
What's your gut feel on whether we re-sign Long???
Posted by: We Have RB's | October 07, 2012 at 02:30 PM
Miller time?
Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:30 PM
Two things need to happen to start the 2nd half:
1. Hold the Bengals scoreless on thier 1st drive.
2. Put 7pts on the scoreboard our 1st drive of the 2nd half.
That's how you a good team put "MO" on thier side.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | October 07, 2012 at 02:30 PM
4-1 Sherman calls a run behind Jerry Martin
Dumb call you run behind Jake Richy
Sherman sometimes reminds me of Dan Henning stupid a s s. Old as s coach!
Posted by: ray | October 07, 2012 at 02:30 PM
Are we happy?
Can we get off the man who is leading this offense like no other has in recent memory!
The first run was needed for space! Then u can run out the clock! Now if it's close to 2 minutes u have to get that 1st!
Up 7-3! Against the Bengals and the ref's!
Posted by: Dashi | October 07, 2012 at 02:31 PM
i would rather go in with a lead than making a mistake going for it i guess, even if it is just to keep the confidence up.
do we get the ball from the kickoof in 3rd q??
Posted by: Reg | October 07, 2012 at 02:31 PM
We have to sign long. Left tacklesdont grow on trees
Posted by: g | October 07, 2012 at 02:31 PM
Play execution is the problem with this team NOT play calling!
