Dolphins and Seahawks tied at 7-7 going to the third quarter

Well, the Dolphins offense came to life toward the end of the first half and went on an impressive TD march, culminated by Reggie Bush's 21-yard TD.

On that score, center Mike Pouncey led the run with a sweep while tight end Charles Clay also got a great cut block at the line of scrimmage. The Dolphins led, 7-0.

But then something went wrong with a defense that had been outstanding.

The Seahawks went 80 yards on the ensuing kickoff and tied the game at 7-7 on a 3-yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson to Anthony McCoy.

The drive included an interesting non-call against Golden Tate on a 32-yard completion. Looked to me like Tate pushed off defender R.J. Stanford.

Oh well.

The second half is coming up. The live blog continues in the comments section.

Super we are record breakers

[waboyd]

Most hated in SoFl? Ireland or Luria?

[Truth]

Everything about the Dolphins smell like stinkin fish. We"ll never win with Ireland in control simple as that

[Scarecrow]

Its just too easy to play against this dolphin D. just so damn easy, let them blitz, dump it off, make them miss. thats it. nothing to it. and if they do not blitz, the qb will have all day to throw and the DB's cannot cover anyone anyway. its just so damn simple. every qb we play against except sanchez will have a qb rating over 100. we give career highs to rookie and young qbs each and every single god damn week. its unreal. luck set records, jake locker set his personal bests, and wilson will today. how are they dolphin coaches and players not embarrassed. I am truly embarrassed for them.

[Phinstripes]

You guys do realize Wilson started several years in college? Tannehill had 19 games and wasn't expected to start this season. But please, keep posting stupid comments.

[nyfinfan]

Well Seattle answered, let's see if the Fins can answer.

Dolphins blitzed alot, but why haven't they employed the spy more?

[Dan]

We took a big chance on taking a converted wide receiver instead of going for a sure thing like Wilson.

A sure thing, LOL. You are delusional dude. Nobody had Russell rated in the 1st round, that doesn't sound like sure thing to me.

[Earl]

Typical Fins defense, plays hard for first quarter then decides they've done enough.

[superPHIN]

too bad we dont have an offense to match...just sayin!!!

[reg]

i really feel for starks and soliai as they are clearly doing their job, yet the guys behind them are struggling to say the least.
T-hill has to respond here or it will be another uphill battle today.

[Jon]

If going 5-11 6-10 is what it takes for Ross to realize Ireland is inept as a GM, than it will be worth it. Another season of Ireland is another season of mediocrity. He has shown nothing to inspire any confidence from Dolphin fans.

[Dashi]

Mando,

Being tired is not a excuse.

IF U ARE TIRED! MAKE A PLAY!!

THAT WAY U CAN GO TO THE BENCH!!!

The Seahawks!! Don't run a NO Huddle. They Just came off a 15 minute break!!

No Need to be tired!!

The Defense Just Sucks!! And The Seahawks!! Are Abusing these LB's with the Short game!! A bunch of passes to the flat!! Just have Dansby Jog around!!

Dansby was jogging!! When Wilson just went on his 20 yard scramble!!

Uncalled for!!

[We Have Draft Picks]

"He's thinking he should of signed Zach Miller or Sydney Rice? Should of considered drafting Golden Tate? It's a team sport, not just one player. Not taking anything away from Wilson, but he is def in a better position to succeed than T-Hill is here right now. That's 100% on Ireland."

Jon,

You actually make sense. Not enough people like you on here.

[qbclub13]

100% true Scarecrow

[Truth]

Can u nut hugged quit defending Tannehill he sucks!!! Static ally the worst rookie QB. Look at Wilson that guy is talented. Thill is utter garbage!

[guppies]

While I feel like a chump for getting the NFL ticket I feel bad for the season ticket holders, they paid big bucks to watch these losers!!!!

BLOWFISH SUCK!!!!
BLOWFISH SUCK!!!!BLOWFISH SUCK!!!!
BLOWFISH SUCK!!!!
BLOWFISH SUCK!!!!

[Craig M]

What nonsense!!

NOBODY had Wilson rated ahead of Wilson....NOBODY! Carroll was largely fried by the media for starting Wilson over Flynn. Stop playing Monday Morning Quarterback, 11 games into a guys career. NOBODY expected Tannehill to be a superstar out of the gate....just stop the nonsense!

[superPHIN]

if miami goes down two scores...thats ball game!!!

[IMAWriter]

Orlando, if Wilson was such a "sure thing' why did he not go until the 3rd round.
I suppose you could say the same about Tom Brady.
Look, Wilson played nearly 30 more collegiate games, in the ACC and Big Ten.
Not an excuse, FACT, sir.

Ireland. People actually care about the Dolphins.

[Ignignokt]

They'd better get some first downs running the ball here . The D needs some oxygen .

[bill connors]

games already over, and we should be happy and realized we dodges one here. sea awful on road and almost let us runinto a meaningless win

[Truth]

This offense is so predictable and it sucks!

Jon,

Couldn't agree more. This team has too many holes. Not fair to Tannehill, not fair to the coaches, & not fair to the fans.

[Armando Salguero]

Ryan Tannehill just broke the Dolphins rookie passing record for a season.

[robbyhernz]

FINALLY A RUN!!!!!!!!!! Been waiting soooo long for him to do that!!!

[DEFinFan]

yes Tannehill takes it up field ....do it again!!!

[IMAWriter]

Finally, Tanny takes off!

[Ignignokt]

LMFAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jon]

WTF? The sprinklers came on now? Yeah, time to upgrade that stadium for sure.

[We Have Draft Picks]

What happened to Thomas??? I don't get it...

[reg]

t-hill has the rookie record so i guess he is doing something right with limited weapons

[Tony in Miami]

WTF!!! this team is CURSE

[bill connors]

[guppies]

You've obviously never played any sport in your life.

[Scarecrow]

about effin time he ran the ball, he can do that so often he wanted to. i guess after watching wilson do it tanny remembered he is allowed to run as well.

[We Have Draft Picks]

WTF????

[AisleBBach]

ROFL artificial rain instead of artificial turf ha ha

[Craig M]

Team gets some momentum and the sprinlers come on....bush league!

[Carp's leg]

THill looks gay as AIDs while running, then proceeded to "make it rain"

[kman]

Typical Fish, get a big play, stopped by the sprinklers

[Earl]

Just sell the team Ross, this is embarrassing.

[jtlawson5]

Even the sprinklers are going 'did he really run one? We gotta celebrate that'

[guppies]

The ground crew... losing breed losers, maybe that was coach FAILbins half time adjustments

[robbyhernz]

T-hill rushing more starts right now!!!

[Dashi]

But Mando.

T-Sizzle Sucks!! That's what everyone is saying!!

Another Thing T-Hill!! Has that Moore Doesn't!!

[reg]

T-hill makes a real good play, then tries to go no huddle and even the ground staff are trying to prevent him getting into some sort of rhythm. wtf!!! somes us up this year i guess.

[h8dpats]

Buffalo Wild Wings got control of this game!

[Truth]
