SAN FRANCISCO -- The pace picked up a bit in the third quarter, but the Dolphins are no closer to victory. Further, actually.
The problem in the third quarter was a Marcus Thigpen fumbled punt inside his 10 yard line. The 49ers converted with a 1-yard Frank Gore TD run. Gore, by the way, has gone over 1,000 yards for the sixth time in his career.
The Dolphins answered San Francisco's TD with a field goal. Story of the year for the offense.

Game over

Same old weak offense. Lol
Posted by: Truth | December 09, 2012 at 06:11 PM
Can't blame the defense too much when you have an offense that can't even get one stinking first down.
Posted by: Chris | December 09, 2012 at 06:12 PM
Same old un clutch Defense. Game over
Posted by: Truth | December 09, 2012 at 06:12 PM
This game was over the minute Tannehill took the field
Posted by: Moore now | December 09, 2012 at 06:12 PM
Time for another FG, let's see if we can score 9 points, i think we can!
Posted by: Joey | December 09, 2012 at 06:12 PM
21 quarters since Tanne has thrown a TD. Will he get it to 22? Hmmm, yeah i think so too.

Posted by: superPHIN | December 09, 2012 at 06:13 PM
49ERS scoring TDs. Miami scoring FGs. Guess which is better.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | December 09, 2012 at 06:13 PM
We traded the only legit weapon in Marshall because he's a diva??Fire Philbin and Ireland that was just stupid!
Posted by: Truth | December 09, 2012 at 06:13 PM
DO WE PAY DANSBY AND BURNETT FOR THE 4TH QTR!!!!
REALLY!!
WHAT WAS BURNETT DOING?!
Posted by: Dashi | December 09, 2012 at 06:13 PM
Honestly I'd fire Philbin this is very reminiscint of 2007.

Chris,
You can't blame a defense that continues to miss tackles??? B#llshit. This is not a good defense by any stretch of the imagination.

Looks like my 31-9 prediction will prove prescient.
Posted by: Danny Whuerffel (Heisman Winner) | December 09, 2012 at 06:13 PM
Our poor defense is tired. This happens every game. These guys play their hearts out and Tannehill and the offense just can't stay on the field.
Dolphins offense needs to apologize after game to their defense. Pathetic!
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | December 09, 2012 at 06:13 PM
We are so consistently bad. We need a Bruno to perform a cleansing.
Posted by: Jkv | December 09, 2012 at 06:14 PM
The dolphins may never score but just give them one more offseason and then it will be points galore.
#badandboring.
Posted by: Andrew | December 09, 2012 at 06:14 PM
This offense is so paltry they couldn't score even if there was a group of naked Latinas waiting for them in the endzone.
Posted by: Dave in Davie | December 09, 2012 at 06:14 PM
All on the offense now to stay on the field drive the field and score,also giving the D a rest
Posted by: reg | December 09, 2012 at 06:14 PM
I said 24-6. Can I change that to 27-6???
Posted by: We Have Draft Picks | December 09, 2012 at 06:15 PM
Well, I STILL don't believe it's over.
14 minutes left. Turn Lamar Miller LOOSE.
Posted by: IMAWriter | December 09, 2012 at 06:15 PM
Dansby's a diva child..how come they didnt trade him??....oh, thats right you have to be on offense to get the boot apparently no matter your talent level....
Posted by: superPHIN | December 09, 2012 at 06:15 PM
What has Ireland been doing?
Posted by: I wanna know | December 09, 2012 at 06:15 PM
I EXPECT TD!!
Posted by: Dashi | December 09, 2012 at 06:15 PM
kevin burnett is getting manhandled on every f!!!ing play
Posted by: finsup | December 09, 2012 at 06:15 PM
Matt Moore woould've won this game.............
Posted by: Tony Nathan | December 09, 2012 at 06:15 PM
Guys Tannehill will either throw a pic or get a sack and fumble this drive. Book it!
Posted by: Truth | December 09, 2012 at 06:16 PM
Guess this will be another game T'hill has zero passing tds.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone $Ever! | December 09, 2012 at 06:16 PM
Sandoval.. so 1-15 is reminicent of bring 5-7 ? Some experts that year had us pushing for a deep playoff run and this year they had us pinned at 4-12.. but year i can see how you can connect the two lol
Posted by: mattybfromnc | December 09, 2012 at 06:16 PM
I agree We Have D's, this defense needs a major overhaul, especially in the secondary, but i'm not going to pin this loss on them when Tannehill can't complete a pass beyond the line of scrimmage.
Posted by: Chris | December 09, 2012 at 06:16 PM
gumble and diefdorf are morons.
Posted by: austin | December 09, 2012 at 06:17 PM
This Quarter!
Posted by: Dashi | December 09, 2012 at 06:17 PM
Lets see if the Dolphins even attempt to throw the football down the field. We don't even make the opposing safeties have something to think about.
Add Sherman to the list of bums.
Posted by: Andrew | December 09, 2012 at 06:17 PM
I can't stand these announcers. They just keep kissing Harbaugh's butt. That is a catch.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | December 09, 2012 at 06:17 PM
Matt Moore screwed us for another 10 yrs!
Posted by: Jkv | December 09, 2012 at 06:17 PM
burnet jumped over gore at the goal line.

Terrible offense receivers on the ground weak Tannehill throws.
Posted by: Sandoval | December 09, 2012 at 06:18 PM
bess catch better not get overturned, was a great catch!!!!!
Posted by: reg | December 09, 2012 at 06:18 PM
When are the Fins coaches gonna realize that Tannehill stinks?
Posted by: Fin 77 | December 09, 2012 at 06:18 PM
Ireland has to go, if anyone even thinks about going to a home game while Ireland's still employed, you're a traitor.
Posted by: Earl | December 09, 2012 at 06:18 PM
We need a first down here just to make the score look competitive. The defense is pretty much done for. Tannehill blows.

"I agree We Have D's, this defense needs a major overhaul, especially in the secondary, but i'm not going to pin this loss on them when Tannehill can't complete a pass beyond the line of scrimmage."
Chris,
Tannehill hasn't had a 3rd option after Hartline & Bess step up all year. I'm sorry but that's not on him.
Posted by: We Have Draft Picks | December 09, 2012 at 06:19 PM
Matt Moore would have had this team over .500. Tannehill has been garbage. He doesn't move the team, he doesn't get the team in the end zone. The Dolphins are pathetic.
Posted by: IMAWriter | December 09, 2012 at 06:19 PM
MATT MOORE Would have Fumbled This Game AWAY!!
T-Hill is About To Lead Another Great Comeback!!
MARINO LIKE!!
Posted by: Dashi | December 09, 2012 at 06:19 PM
Great catch and throw...for 8 yards
Posted by: KS | December 09, 2012 at 06:19 PM
Sandoval.. so 1-15 is reminicent of bring 5-7 ? Some experts that year had us pushing for a deep playoff run and this year they had us pinned at 4-12.. but year i can see how you can connect the two lol
MattyB,
The guy is CLEARLY an idiot. LOL.
Posted by: We Have Draft Picks | December 09, 2012 at 06:20 PM
Theres a reason Matt Moore has always been and will always be a back up..
Posted by: mattybfromnc | December 09, 2012 at 06:20 PM
Can we trade Tanny for a ham sandwhich?
Posted by: mike | December 09, 2012 at 06:20 PM
Dashi, pass over some of that stuff you're smoking!!!
Posted by: Earl | December 09, 2012 at 06:20 PM

Posted by: Dashi | December 09, 2012 at 06:20 PM
Wow...could have been 6
Posted by: IMAWriter | December 09, 2012 at 06:20 PM
Now that is funny! Tannehill is about to lead Miami back like Marino! Never you guys are a bunch of idiots.
Posted by: ray | December 09, 2012 at 06:21 PM
Lol, a team that doesn't have a bum like Marlon Moore starting scores a TD there. Great throw by Tanny.
