BUFFALO -- Well, the Dolphins are still waiting for their offense to show up to this late game.
The Dolphins first first down came on a Bills encroachment penalty in the second quarter. They have not crossed midfield in the first half. They have only 50 total yards on offense.
Nolan Carroll has three penalties, including two pass intereference calls, that have cost the Dolphins 51 yards.
And so the Bills lead 19-7 but it feels much worse because the Bills have dominated.
The second half starts soon. The live blog continues now in the comments section.







Tannehill , 6/11 for 44 yards.
Henne was better.

Time to put Moore in

The worst 6 quarters I can remember Dolphins playing in my 44 years.Last 2 games are unacceptable
Posted by: Jake in Pa | November 15, 2012 at 10:04 PM
Mando, why has the play calling been so Sparano-esque the last 2 wks? This was not the Fins offense the 1st 7 gms. Everything is being called in a box.

superphin we know the game is over, we knew that hours ago.

Happy fvcking Thanksgivng everyone! The turkey is the Miami Dolphins. The stuffing is the Coaching staff. The gravy is the GM. I'd say we're nothing, but nothing is something, and we're not even that.

Armando I think this is over... have nice fly home guy TC

By the way -
WE DRAFTED JAKE LONG INSTEAD OF DRAFTING MATT FREAKING RYAN.
Every day I think about that.
THATS WHY WE SUCK.
Posted by: The Fins Suck | November 15, 2012 at 10:04 PM
I think to biggest adjustment we'll see from the coaches is changing the flavor of the Gatorade on the sidelines.

Great job letting Mike Nolan leave, and we didn't even interview him for the HC job
Posted by: Earl | November 15, 2012 at 10:05 PM
Need a tackle, 3 corners , 2 receivers and 2 te
Why has jeffy done here in 5 years?
Posted by: Lebrons headband | November 15, 2012 at 10:05 PM
Do they even practice holding onto picks????
Posted by: massfish | November 15, 2012 at 10:05 PM
Fire Ireland he should not get to use the picks he got for Marshall and Davis. Not enough talent on the feild.
He should have been fired for passing on Earl Thomas
Posted by: jt | November 15, 2012 at 10:05 PM
Even as this game progresses, Jeff Ireland is scouring the waiver wire for acorns.
Posted by: Ireland's Republican Army | November 15, 2012 at 10:05 PM
Fzb, where are you? Tell us more about how Ireland is doing a good job.
Idiot.
Posted by: Andrew | November 15, 2012 at 10:05 PM
This is what I thought we'd get to start season. Now teams know cover Hartline and Bess and we can't block anyone. Defense not bad except Corners.

You wonder why Sherman keeps calling runs up the middle against the 2nd worst D for 2 yds i feel like im in the twilight zone, how can one team have SAME exact problems for 10 yrs
Posted by: joey | November 15, 2012 at 10:06 PM
Irealand can take his "pass" and shove it
Posted by: jt | November 15, 2012 at 10:06 PM
if im the bills coming out of halftime...im licking my chops and aiming at both smith and carrol of miamis secondary...if they dont get it, it usually is proceeded with a yellow flag on the field....
Posted by: superPHIN | November 15, 2012 at 10:07 PM
I hope the coach or somebody totally goes off and has Cleveland rant like Nick Satan did-wish we had the offense that A + M has now-no wonder Sherman got fired
Posted by: David | November 15, 2012 at 10:07 PM
You guys are a F'n joke. You have no football IQ what so ever. Those calling for Tanny to be replaced...I hope they do so he doesn't get his butt kicked anymore due to our O-line playing like SH#$ and our recievers doing nothing to get open. All the Carroll haters..are you kidding me?? All 3 calls against him aren't called against most corners in this league, let the guy play, but the refs didn't see the forearm to hartline's head before the ball got to him??? Ohh and Wake is being held every FN play!!!!
Posted by: ATLFinFan | November 15, 2012 at 10:07 PM
Ireland should run the marlins
They like acorns
Posted by: Lebrons headband | November 15, 2012 at 10:07 PM
Cant run the ball because defenses load up on the run. With no deep threat WR it basically make the dolphins offense play in a phone booth.
On defense they are in desperate need of 2 CB's. I wouldn't resign Smith. Sign Starks. Get a Pass Rusher. The rest of this year is for making decisions on who to keep and who to jettison.
Posted by: Mike D | November 15, 2012 at 10:07 PM
How could this team regressed so quickly and so badly after the whooping they put on the Jets? I can't wrap my head around it. It's frustrating!
Posted by: 48-Go | November 15, 2012 at 10:08 PM
So I guess sherman had his glassess off and didnt realize nobody was in the room when he made his make your sons proud speech?

Where's the "Ireland has been magnificent with Philbin" Dude?
Posted by: Blowhard Cosell | November 15, 2012 at 10:08 PM
Ross Has to fire Ireland and give someone with an objective opinion the chance to evaluate these Free agents and re-sign them or not. If Ireland stays, Long will get a big money long term contract, Sean Smith will get an extension, Fasano will be re-signed, and this teams $50 mil cap room will be basically tapped out. Enough is enough. And I said this a month ago and people were killing me for it. Ireland is not a good Talent evaluator.
Posted by: Jon | November 15, 2012 at 10:08 PM
can't wait for the next 3 games!!!!
Posted by: guppies | November 15, 2012 at 10:08 PM
Boycott home games everyone, maybe Ross will finally get the balls to fire Ireland
Posted by: Earl | November 15, 2012 at 10:08 PM
Agreed ATLFinFan..Oline isnt doing crap..

So, NFL lost Big Ben, Cutler, Vick, other attractions. Good. It will continue until you let Us go.

Posted by: Zaphod | November 15, 2012 at 10:09 PM
I know these guys are professionals and Philbin has to deal with stuff different. But I am a high school coach and I'd be peeling the paint off the walls at Dansby for his lack of effort on several plays.
Posted by: KS | November 15, 2012 at 10:10 PM
needds are: wr's, te, lt, lg, rg, rt, qb, rb, fb, s, cb, cb, olb, mlb, olb, dt, dt, dt. So basically keep Wake and Pouncey and get rid of everyone else. Pull a Marlins.
Posted by: DC Dolfan | November 15, 2012 at 10:10 PM
I told you people, Miami will not win another game with Tannehill at the helm! If the coach will let Matt Moore or Pat Devlin start the 2nd half we will win this game. The defense is going to shut down in the next series or two and this game will become a blowout. The coaching staff is so stupid, this is why they cannot win any calls. Everyone looses respect for you when you continue to promote foolishness!!!!!!!! Everyone can see that Tannehill is not ready and may never be ready. Yet they keep talking him up and letting blow game after game. If either of the other qbs came in the game, the defense back off imediately. We have two other qbs who are MUCH better than he is, but stupidity keeps prevailing.

Why all this Ireland hate? The man has tirelessly unearthed one acorn after another. Kind of like a hyperactive squirrel.
Blame Parcells for the bad roster. Ireland was merely a passive bystander during his tenure, and, when Parcells left, he thought he was supposed to remain a passive bystander. If someone had just told him, I'm sure he would have found the time to get some better players.
Posted by: Ireland's Republican Army | November 15, 2012 at 10:10 PM
sherman meant the bills sons to be proud!!

And yet, ironically, we're in 2nd place in the AFC East ... this is just weird. I mean we won't be in 2nd after tonight ... but we have that at this moment!
Posted by: Zaphod | November 15, 2012 at 10:11 PM
Tannehill is only reason I'm still watching. This whole season is about getting him ready.
Posted by: KS | November 15, 2012 at 10:11 PM
Start Moore, need to shake things up

2:1 in possession 4:1 in yardage LOL

48-go thats an easy one. have u seen the jets. sparano basically made them a top 5 worst team in nfl. that team is beyond garbage. even worse than us
