Dolphins lead Jags 16-3 going to fourth quarter

This one has gone pretty much as scripted.

The Dolphins are a solid team playing solid. The Jaguars are a terrible team playing ... well, you know.

Miami's had to settle for way too many field goals today -- three to be exact. It would have been four had coaches not decided on calling a whack fake field goal in which punter Brandon Fields tried to pass the ball for a TD.

Anyway, stay with me. You know no lead is safe against Chad Henne.

Go to the comments section now.

yup

[superPHIN]

miamis thrilled with 16 pts....their definatly at their status quo today...offense of misery...just the way they like it!!!

[Razo]

QB Ratings after 3 quarters:

RT 113
Eli 35
Peyton Manning 93
Flacco 47

[Armando Salguero]

That's the second time Henne checks into a 1-yard run. Terrible.

[Craig M]

Kudos to Hartline reaching 1000 yards. Just the 8th Dolphin WR in history to reach that feat. There were guys on here who wanted this guy cut in camp and he's had a great season. Oh yeah....he was an Ireland draft pick too.

[Craig M]

promichael would tell you that Hartline is a 4th or 5th receiver in this league also.

[rattlersteve]

great hold!!!!!

[DC Dolfan]

Nice play by the D!

[We Have Draft Picks]

"This is one game against a crappy team. We all see that. He needs to get better against the rest of the league. THAT's what I'm talkig about."

Craig,

Agreed. Even the biggest Tahnnehill supporters know that. I hope the improvement comes next season.

[Armando Salguero]

I hope: If Thomas is hurt, it happened in warmups because he was not on injury report all week long.

[superPHIN]

just end this game.....PLEASE!!!

[We Have Draft Picks]

Man...The Jaguars are a sorry football team.

[DC Dolfan]

Craig, agree he's having a good Season, but did you see that drop last quarter? For a TD? Good WRs get 1,000 yards. GREAT WRs get 10+ TDs/year.

[Jon]

I almost forgot how scared Henne plays the QB position. Just awful

[KS]

Hurt on one good run he had earlier in game.

[Dashi]

Top 5 D-Line!!

Run and Pass!!

Almost another Defensive Collapse!!

Good Stop!!

Now Score A TD!!

Crack That Whip Sherman!!

Even If T-Hill HAS To Run IT IN!

Put The Ball In The Endzone!!

This Defense Is About Break!!

[superPHIN]

i'll trade a 1000 yrd reciever for one that catches more td's any day of the week...just sayin!!!

[The Seer]

Cannot chance another season to "find out" if improvement comes nxt yr.
Need to target a QB now & jettison HenneHill

[nyfinfan]

Indy is giving the Texans all they can handle! Good game.

Cousins looking good in D.C. w/o RGIII

We are stuck in Pergatory

"I hope: If Thomas is hurt, it happened in warmups because he was not on injury report all week long.

Mando,

He looked a little shaken up after that first run he had.

[Craig M]

DC,

No question. He's a 4th round WR for a reason. Just pary he's not in New England next year. We need top tie talent to complement him.

[Orlando Dolphan]

How about Andrew Luck? How many superbowls will that kid win?

[Armando Salguero]

Missed it, WHDP. My bad.

[We Have Draft Picks]

Craig, agree he's having a good Season, but did you see that drop last quarter? For a TD? Good WRs get 1,000 yards. GREAT WRs get 10+ TDs/year.

DC,

Anyway you slice it Hartline is good WR & it will be a HUGE mistake if he's not re-signed.

[DC Dolfan]

I agree. He'll be very beneficial with talent around him.

[Dashi]

How Many TD's?

Bess Already Had A Thousand Yard Season!! Your Point Craig?

Binns has the same amount of TD's!!

[Jon]

Hartling is good, but not great. He's an ideal #2 who probably won't be back next year. His agent is Drew Rosenhouse and he already is talking about possibly not being here next season. He'll play for the team that will throw him the most money, not that I blame him at all for that. Just saying

[reg]

craig, it is going to be difficult for T-Hill to play well against the 'better' teams if he has limited weapons and an O-line that hasn't protected well enough at times

[We Have Draft Picks]

Did he just throw a pass on 3rd & 1???

[Craig M]

superPHIN,

He's a FOURTH round pick. What exactly were you looking for? And it's not all on Hartline he doesn't have more TDs. Some him. Some T-Hill. Some the play-calling and soe the lack of more help. He's had an excellent season.

[Dashi]

Binns Is Going To Break The #19 Curse!!

I Like This Kid Already!!

Acorn!!

[rattlersteve]

good things happen when reggie doesnt dance around all the time

[DC Dolfan]

Need to be able to run out the clock in the 4th qtr.

[We Have Draft Picks]

Nice run Lamar!!!!

[jpao]

THILL looks good today. I like Mathews. I like Thigpen. Not sure why we haven't seen more from them this year?

[Craig M]

reg,

I'm not disputing that. But better weapons and a better OL does not guarantee better accuracy. Most of that is on the QB.

[Tony in Miami]

this kid Matthews look a very good receiver

[Jon]

Starting to think Miami should seriously consider re-signing Bush or targeting a RB in the draft. Thomas is just too injury prone and he hasn't shown enough to have confidence in him going forward

[Play Moore]

TanneBust = FG FISTPUMP!!

[jpao]

Throw the ball downfield.

[Dashi]

T-Sizzle and No Wr's!!

The Future!! Matthews looks Like a Find! And Binns!

OK!!

[jpao]

THILL....nice step up in the pocket!!!

[David]

Mando-Why does every receiver fall down instead of run forward for the TD?

[I Doubt It]

Will the Dullfins ever win another SB?

[Craig M]

TOTALLY different team since early in the game. They are taking it to Jacksonville now. This is how we played earlier in the year. This is what's been missing lately. Again, a lot of the blame from me goes towards Sherman for the play-calling. THIS is who Tannehill is and needs to become. Be AGGRESSIVE more.

[Orlando Dolphan]

Hartline is definately the type of hard nose receiver that Pats like. He will be a Patriot next year if the fins don't sign him.

BTW- This is the best game I have seen from T-Hill. He has thrown on the run, through tight windows, and had run the ball well.

[DC Dolfan]

NICE drive to bleed the clock. Maybe a crap team, but this is how you SHOULD be doing against them.

[Razo]

Yesterday apparently won't be back to tell us about the scouting report today because RT is putting that report to bed.

[We Have Draft Picks]

Bush is having HUGE success today when he doesn't dance.

[Dashi]

L.Miller!

Reggie Without The Dancing!!

[Orlando Dolphan]

Oh no Hartline is hurt.

[jpao]

OK...two dropped passes in the endzone today. Lets see how they do here. Like to see THIll throw again.

[Jon]

Orlando Dolphan,

Agree 100%. If Hartline is allowed to hit the market there's little doubt in my mind the Pats will go all out for him. Especially since they're set to let Welker walk

[Pathetic Franchise]

i hope the Dolphins win so they get worse draft choices.

[Tony in Miami]

Armando, Field Goal or TD?

[We Have Draft Picks]

Now Harline hurt??? F#ck!!!

[Craig M]

Jon,

I agree with you on Bush. Again guys are saying he's gone without having any clue what kind of money he wants. If you guys get your wish and Long's contract isn't here there will be money to spend. To me there are still questions on Thomas and Miller. We don't know enough about Miller yet. Anyone feel confident if it's those two?

[jtlawson5]

I would sign Bush back. Every team needs that hard working, good influence, fired up player. That is contagious. Even if he misses holes from time to time and dances a little bit too much.

[Dashi]

Reggie wants Those 5 Yards!

Good To See that!!

[Kris]

Kudos to Hartline reaching 1000 yards. Just the 8th Dolphin WR in history to reach that feat. There were guys on here who wanted this guy cut in camp and he's had a great season. Oh yeah....he was an Ireland draft pick too.
