CINCINNATI -- Last time they were on the road, the Dolphins blew an 11-point lead. They have a 13-point lead now.
But the Bengals have the ball at the Miami 3 to start the fourth quarter and are threatening.
Can Miami hold on to win?
We'll find out as the live blog continues in the comments section. Join me there.







We need to get this first down!
Yes! Pass!
We get this 3rd and game is basically over!

Bush HAS to stop dancing now.
I wouldn't mind thomas in now, even with his fumble propensity.
At least Bush stayed in bounds.
Roll Tanny out! sort throw to Lane.
Sparano would have pooch punted here! On 3rd down

Dalton has 15 more pass attempts and only 3 more yards than Tannehill....nice
Posted by: MiamiD20 | October 07, 2012 at 04:01 PM
Fins need to do a T-hill scramble with option to run or pass on this 3rd down.

So, do they run on the next play, giving Cincy the ball with 1:30ish on the clock to score a TD? Or do they throw for a 1st down, risking giving Cincy the ball with 2 minutes left? I think a nice screen play would be a good split of the two.

Math whizzes, if we run an punt, how much time does that give them? 1:10ish?
Posted by: robbyhernz | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
We will run, not get it, put in the prevent D and ........

I say boot play with Tanny. Tell him throw if wide open or take sack.
Posted by: KS | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
This is stressful.
Posted by: heem50 | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
Bush should not be running ball now. We need forward effort
Posted by: popncaps551 | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
we need to try punch a hole for the rb to get a few yards. not sure i like bush dancing around like that allowing those big d lineman to sneak up on him from behind!!!
Posted by: Reg | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
I'm still betting on the end of the world with 10 seconds left...say 4th and 7...
Signed Nostradolphinus

time we won.
Posted by: Rocket | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
Important thing here, if not getting the 1st down, we pin the Bengals deep with less than 2 mins to score the game winning td.
The next play is probably a run. The Bengals have no time outs and we can take a delay of game penalty to milk the clock even further.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
1:10 from around 10-20 yd line.
Posted by: KS | October 07, 2012 at 04:02 PM
a win would SOMEWHAT ameliorate my pain from last night's UM beatdown by ND.
Posted by: IMAWriter | October 07, 2012 at 04:03 PM
Smart play by Bush staying in bounds. They have no timeouts left so I'd be shocked if we didn't run the ball again. They have no timeouts left & they need a TD.
Posted by: We Have RB's | October 07, 2012 at 04:03 PM
Let's hope Sherman has a clear head and runs the ball, kill some clock. Our wideouts have had a terrible second half and if Clay could hold on to a ball or two he'd be dangerous.

Short!
