CINCINNATI -- This is a hard game to get a grasp on.
The Dolphins gave six points away in the first quarter. The Bengals had two turnovers in the second quarter and the Miami offense moved the ball very well on one drive to take a 7-6 lead at halftime.
Interesting that Nolan Carroll is holding up so far.
Cincy QB Andy Dalton is clearly not having a good day, with his accuracy way off. He has comleted 11 of 18 passes for 83 yards. Ryan Tannehill so far is the better QB in this game. He is 7of 10 for 101 yards.

Nice defensive stand. Please avoid the turnover down here

Carpenter has been the worst player on the team this year.
Great stop Defense!!

Clay and Carpenter are both major disappointments this season. Clay dropped a first down pass and Carpenter, who was supposed to be great, now sucks. Feel for Tannehill. He has so few receivers to throw to. What happened to our third round pick, Agnew. He must really suck, too. Not even active. That's Ireland's fault. I don't want him to have our picks next draft. We have a lot of extra picks.

Yes, you should expect a 50 yds FG from a million dollar plus player!!!

Battle of field position. I don't see the offens making an impact this drive.
The Charles Clay drop was crucial the previous Dolphins drive.

Same suck bags every week, carpenter, smith, and bess. Bess sucks at returning. This idiot let'd every ball go over his head and ends up pinning them deep.

Ireland has built a great defense. He has made the right decisions on free agents and has hit on plenty of draft picks. Odrick, Misi, Smith, Jones were solid picks for the defense in the draft.
On offense he found Tannehill, Long, Pouncey, Hartline, Bess (rookie free agent).
You need time to develop players. You also need to be able to hit on a franchise QB in this league. A franchis QB can make a GM look very smart.
