No one was happy when Armstead went out and Tua got sacked 3 times in a row. We were all kinda like WTF? Lol. I have faith McDaniel will do his best to make sure that doesn’t happen again.
You all have got to learn to chill out sometimes in the threads lol. Cant be getting so dam emotional and start spewing idiotic hot takes just because the Texans scored 15 points on us. You all asked for tua to be benched to rest early, and then you all wanted him back in and call McDaniel stupid for that? There's a reason why 98% of you all cant work for a NFL team lol
And then ripping Skylar for getting pounded behind the same oline that allowed repeat 3-and-outs with Tua under center to open the half. If you went just by memory and attention span, our fan base would be the Miami Gold Fish.
Embarrassing behavior in the game thread today. Jesus Christ you can tell that we’ve been a sorry ass franchise for years by the way people act in those
1st place in the AFCE after 12 weeks and Tua is still in the MVP conversation. Feels good. Hopefully they can figure out something for the OL going into next week. Suddenly we could use another bye lol
Mahomes has the MVP wrapped up but Tua would make for a great distant 2nd. AFCE 1st place is great news and hopefully the team continues to march into this final stretch getting better on the OL/DL.
Such a weird game. I never felt a second beforehand we would lose and didn't even view it as a trap game. We completely annihilated them int he 1st half. The D out-played the O for the first time since the Pittsburgh game basically gifting 14pts (X fumble recovery TD & AVG INT off the gift from Allen to put us on their own 5 yard line). But man.. talk about some unusually negative stuff.
It's crazy how poor the OL performed once Armstead went out. He seems to anchor everyone else's play on the line. The fact that it is a pec injury scares me... that is never good.
Everyone’s all bummed out but we went into the half 30-0 and (unnecessarily but understandably) got lazy in the second half. Shit happens all the time in blowout games.
I’d disagree. Depending on the injury to Terron it could sink a potential Super Bowl run and turn a 4-2 finish into a 2-4 finish. McDaniels play calling was horrific in the second half. Should have been running the ball every down and playing defense. Made a blowout a lot closer than it should have been. And leaving Tua out there as long as he did was ridiculous. Especially as he continued to get pounded after Armsteads injury. I get guys can get hurt on any play but when the games over no reason to keep trotting him back out. I get we weren’t the sharpest and he wanted to knock the rust off before playing a top team in the league but he tried to be too cute.
Im curious about how serious the injuries are. I feel like we were taking guys out with cramps and strains. Everybody walking off under there own power etc
It would be nice but I think we have the toughest schedule ROS - our only game against a team with a losing record still has Aaron Rodgers on the other sideline
Happy to be out of that game. Seems worse than it is because our offense was anemic after tua benched and Armstead got hurt. Fact is we covered a monstrous spread against a bad team like we should have. All things considered I am still really happy Tua was benched there, we can’t risk him in pointless situations. Only thing I am super concerned about is Armstead’s health
The most concerning thing to me is that the and you have shouldn’t be there as to when the offense looked anemic. It wasn’t a Tua out AND armstead out. It fully turned that way as soon as Armstead went out. That is really scary. Hopefully he is ok and if not we have to figure something out to make due.
Wow Tua and Armstead are so important to the offense. I’m glad they rested Tua and I hope Armsteads injury is something that can heal within the week!!!
A player like TA is hard to replace mid-game. If he has to miss time, I don't expect next week to look quite as bad as today, even though the SF defense is better. They'll have a week to prepare.
We did what we needed to do during this 5 game stretch. We got way above .500 to give us some wiggle room should we lose 1 or 2 road games coming up. I hope we can continue this winning streak but this final gauntlet is going to be extremely difficult. Here's hoping our guys can endure it.
I think being bad for so long has given a lot of Dolphin fans PTSD. Sure we took our foot off the gas in the second half and there are some things we need to clean up but this was an easy win that the Phins were in control of the whole way. Only real concern for me is Armstead, line looked noticeably worse after he went out.
Any AFC loss benefits the dolphins. Many people believe the bills will win the division, so Miami will compete for a wildcard seeding which the ravens could possibly be competing for as well.
First half was pure ecstacy. 2nd half was so frustrating. I'm not too scared. Only scared for Terron. Sure Tua had one of his worst games in terms of completion but still was really good. ID still give him like an A-. He surprised me with his pocket presence again. I love it
So did anyone notice how much worse our offense got once Teron Armstead left the game? The night and day difference (even with Tua still in there) has me genuinely concerned. I hope he is able to come back next week.
This was the running narrative during game thread - but let's put into context that once Armstead went down - a couple of players (forgot who) had to switch out of their positions instantly. We can't expect them to suddenly know what their new assignments are for each play call. So yeah it's gonna suck - but things did stabilize a bit towards later half of fourth. If worst should happen and Armstead is out next week, then at least OLine has time to prep.
Not the feel good ending we hoped for but have to keep in mind that the game dynamics often change when one team is up so much and so dominant. It becomes awkward and the losing team is playing more open and care free and the winning team struggles to keep the pressure and know when to push and when to back off. Personnel often changes as well. No concern there at all.
The Dolphins have a difficult schedule to end the year. This 3 game road trip coming up is key. Ideally, if they can go 2-1 I'd be happy. 3-0 I'd be ecstatic. Going 1-2 isn't great, but you can't go 0-3 that'd be awful.
People need to stop with the “win is a win” rhetoric. We dominated and took some starters out, which made the game look closer than it was. Thanks goodness for taking Tua out b/c we sustained injuries on the OL b/c they were left in. Hope they are ok, but this game was not as close as people make it seem
I’m not a bad person, but the idea of Tom Brady coming back for one final season, getting divorced, having a losing record and missing the playoffs to end his career does bring me joy. Maybe I’m a bad person.
Lost of Rust coming from the Bye, Dolphins are gonna clean up next time out. It’s just a matter of hoping Terron and Jackson, as well as the other injuries are okay.
does anyone know if there’s a clip of waddle talking about jeff wilson? the broadcaster today was saying he said hes “scared of him” because he talks to himself lmao i’d love to hear that quote
Its the game thread, dont generalize the fan base, Every teams game thread is mostly idiots that want to provide horrible opinions and emotional reactions
Man we have the most pathetic fanbase and toxic GDT for a game that was over at half .Texans were never going to comeback , they were going to do what professional athletes who get paid millions to play a game do try and not get embarrassed and at least get some points on the board and leave with some dignity .
We can beat SF, but we have to play out of our minds. The Chargers are wishy-washy, they are 'good' then they can suck, so who knows. The @ Buffalo game is almost certainly a loss, but hopefully it's close. A blowout would be devastating to our morale. I'm terrified of the Green Bay game. Rogers is currently playing like the 39 year old has been that he is, but he still has the chops to explode.
Rodgers is playing with a broken thumb and he hasn't been in sync with his receivers all season. Buffalo and SF are highly competitive games and I see 50/50 IF Tua stays healthy.
Bills fan lurking. I appreciate your mindset but I don't believe that the Buffalo-Miami game is almost certainly a loss for the Dolphins. Our defense has gotten much worse since we last played and Tua has ascended. It's gonna be a dog fight.
Not sure how you can be so confident in saying @ Buffalo is certainly a loss? They aren’t as good as last year and Josh Allen is playing injured. I expect that game to be very close. The only game I think we get smoked in is the 49ers game. Their D line will molest Tua if we can’t run the ball or they can’t protect him. But we definitely shouldn’t not be in confident for the Buffalo game.
On at least two of the Tua sacks, there were no blitz beaters and Houston brought 6. Tua and MM both said that the play calling was at fault and not the line, and I believe it. The sky's not falling. At least not yet..
Thompson is just not an NFL backup. He's really bad. He had plays where he had the time and just couldnt make the throws. Bridgewater could have and for sure Tua would have.
Biggest disappointment is that Tua and Tyreek are prob out of MVP running. Incompletions (due to rust) and being out of second half will drop their numbers.
Bub, I think McDaniel said easy on the gas when we were up by 30. No sense in playing your guys hard if you don't have to, let them rest more if you can. Harder games are coming up. Be grateful we got to let tua sit
I'm glad we still continue to throw the ball the way we did in the second half. Hill had cramps, the offensive line with garbage but Thompson needed these reps badly in case we need him in the future. People wanted us to just run the ball but that's not our offense.
Pray for Armstead
[удалено]
I’m still in awe that Tua quietly threw for nearly 300 yards in half a game lol. This is so insane.
That's the stuff we say we're grateful for this holiday season
Seriously... we've been bad at offense for so long. This seems like a dream or something.
Get well Terron
Shortly we will be seeing him in toe cream commercials
Weird game. Went from super hyped to kinda melancholic. We won though
No one was happy when Armstead went out and Tua got sacked 3 times in a row. We were all kinda like WTF? Lol. I have faith McDaniel will do his best to make sure that doesn’t happen again.
You all have got to learn to chill out sometimes in the threads lol. Cant be getting so dam emotional and start spewing idiotic hot takes just because the Texans scored 15 points on us.

Embarrassing behavior in the game thread today. Jesus Christ you can tell that we’ve been a sorry ass franchise for years by the way people act in those
2% of us being able to work in the nfl is very generous haha
This is why I stick to the
I think that was pretty predictable they would give some up. Wasn’t cause for panic. Only natural to slack a bit when you have a buffer like that
I think a sizeable portion of the active subreddit also just uses the discord, I know the mods do at least
I’ll preface this by saying I’m sure there were some posts that were simply beyond stupid….but…
Pls be ok terron
1st place in the AFCE after 12 weeks and Tua is still in the MVP conversation. Feels good. Hopefully they can figure out something for the OL going into next week. Suddenly we could use another bye lol
O line is our achilles despite so much attention to it. Tua doesn’t need much time but my goodness he didn’t have a chance on those 4.
Mahomes has the MVP wrapped up but Tua would make for a great distant 2nd. AFCE 1st place is great news and hopefully the team continues to march into this final stretch getting better on the OL/DL.
We did what we were supposed to do. The only thing that matters before next week is Armstead’s status. It’s a win. On to a season defining road trip.
Such a weird game. I never felt a second beforehand we would lose and didn't even view it as a trap game. We completely annihilated them int he 1st half. The D out-played the O for the first time since the Pittsburgh game basically gifting 14pts (X fumble recovery TD & AVG INT off the gift from Allen to put us on their own 5 yard line). But man.. talk about some unusually negative stuff.
It's crazy how poor the OL performed once Armstead went out. He seems to anchor everyone else's play on the line. The fact that it is a pec injury scares me... that is never good.
“Shockingly poor” running game?
Can we get Tunsil to not take the plane ride home?
Everyone’s all bummed out but we went into the half 30-0 and (unnecessarily but understandably) got lazy in the second half. Shit happens all the time in blowout games.
That’s still an impressive ass kick from Tucker. Would’ve been good from 65
We won
Hope Armstead gets better
Injuries matter
I’d disagree. Depending on the injury to Terron it could sink a potential Super Bowl run and turn a 4-2 finish into a 2-4 finish. McDaniels play calling was horrific in the second half. Should have been running the ball every down and playing defense. Made a blowout a lot closer than it should have been. And leaving Tua out there as long as he did was ridiculous. Especially as he continued to get pounded after Armsteads injury. I get guys can get hurt on any play but when the games over no reason to keep trotting him back out.

Im curious about how serious the injuries are. I feel like we were taking guys out with cramps and strains. Everybody walking off under there own power etc
if the rams do us a solid we would be 1st place overall in the AFC.
That would be an epic upset.
It would be nice but I think we have the toughest schedule ROS - our only game against a team with a losing record still has Aaron Rodgers on the other sideline
Mike coming in hot for the 9ers. Phins got some history there. Let’s go! Stop Joey and we’re good
HOW BOUT THEM MOTHER FUCKING MIAMI DOLPHINS!!!!
McDaniel still has a lot to learn and I think he will with time.
He said so himself in the post game conference during the 5th quarter show.
I have started to prep myself for self-surgery. I'm cutting my pectoral muscle and sending it to TA.... Where do i start cutting?
Happy to be out of that game. Seems worse than it is because our offense was anemic after tua benched and Armstead got hurt. Fact is we covered a monstrous spread against a bad team like we should have. All things considered I am still really happy Tua was benched there, we can’t risk him in pointless situations. Only thing I am super concerned about is Armstead’s health
Pretty crazy Tua was 1 off of 300 yards at the half and we're complaining.
The most concerning thing to me is that the and you have shouldn’t be there as to when the offense looked anemic. It wasn’t a Tua out AND armstead out. It fully turned that way as soon as Armstead went out. That is really scary. Hopefully he is ok and if not we have to figure something out to make due.
Skyler Thompson kneeling in victory formation was the best thing he did all game
Taking Tua out was the right decision. The real season starts next week
On a positive note, Jaelan Phillips played fantastic today.
And Sanders didn't miss any extra points!!
Wow Tua and Armstead are so important to the offense. I’m glad they rested Tua and I hope Armsteads injury is something that can heal within the week!!!
what is our offensive scheme? is Armstead responsible for blocking 3 people? because that's how it looked.
Jaguars help the Dolphins?
Eh. It was mainly just nice for right now.
Justin Tucker actually missed a FG?!?!?
turns out if you ask him to kick it from damn near 70 yards even he can miss.
A player like TA is hard to replace mid-game. If he has to miss time, I don't expect next week to look quite as bad as today, even though the SF defense is better. They'll have a week to prepare.
We did what we needed to do during this 5 game stretch. We got way above .500 to give us some wiggle room should we lose 1 or 2 road games coming up. I hope we can continue this winning streak but this final gauntlet is going to be extremely difficult. Here's hoping our guys can endure it.
ARMSTEAD HAVE MY PEC
I don’t think you have the facilities for that big man
Anyone have Tuas stats once armstead went out? Felt like he was sacked at least four times as soon as he went out.
Go ahead and burn that 2nd half tape
idk why everyone gets cute with squib kicks after late TDs. Just kick it into the ez ya ninny.
yah 20 yards for 3 seconds isn't a good trade.
Well, a win is a win. But I’m worried about our o-line without Armstead. Tough stretch of games coming up
Without Terron we go no where
I’m just so happy to have seriously meaningful Dolphins football in December and January
We've had it the last 2 years, it just always ends in heartbreak.
He nearly made that
Jags with a fat win for Miami.
Ballsy for them to go for 2 there!
That second half was ugly and I started getting PTSD from years past. But the defense stepped up when they needed to.
This was the first game i have been to since 08, you fans in the stadium were fucking awesome and the team was also fucking awesome
Damn tucker almost hit that
Dude is ridiculous. He hit like 47 consecutive FGs in the 4th quarter and the first Miss is by a yard on a 67 yarder. He's the goat
I take back anything I said about the jags. What an adrenaline rush. Happy for Lawrence
I think being bad for so long has given a lot of Dolphin fans PTSD. Sure we took our foot off the gas in the second half and there are some things we need to clean up but this was an easy win that the Phins were in control of the whole way. Only real concern for me is Armstead, line looked noticeably worse after he went out.
Yes ptsd we have for sure. Still have my doubts but they are waning.
THE TUA HYPE IS REAL
Definitely a weird W but I’ll take it. Niners are gonna be tough for sure
Jags are ass
I stand corrected… Based Trevor 🙏
Let’s goooooo!!! Go for 2! Close this game!
I didn't understand why the Jaguars squib kicked it but Ravens missed the FG anyway
Any solid Free Agent linemen?
Crazy what happens when Armstead goes out. The line just like dies inside. It's crazy.
Holy shit! They might review that tho.
I think it stands
Fuck you shit birds!
That was huge what Pederson just did for Lawrence
Lol @ Ravens
How do the Ravens losing benefit the Dolphins right now?
Any AFC loss benefits the dolphins. Many people believe the bills will win the division, so Miami will compete for a wildcard seeding which the ravens could possibly be competing for as well.
Aside from the tie breaker which we have over them. they had the same record as us going into this week. Also fuck the Ravens is why.
only for seeding, but cinci, this helps a lot.
Anyone see the Texans throwing a 2 pt conversion to Laremy Tunsil? I love that.
First half was pure ecstacy. 2nd half was so frustrating. I'm not too scared. Only scared for Terron. Sure Tua had one of his worst games in terms of completion but still was really good. ID still give him like an A-. He surprised me with his pocket presence again. I love it
I mean Tua had like 5 drops and 3 throwaways, who cares about his statline, it doesnt tell you the whole picture
Really hope the Armstead injury is minor and they didn’t want to put him back in a 30-0 game
Him and AJ going down was super sad
A win is a win
Oh this ravens game tho
Jackson was awful all game. Shell can't play LT. I don't know why they messed with that.
Tlaw, you need to watch Tua tape.
Vegas always knows
T law pretty good come on jags
He’s got some zip
How bad is Armsteads injury?
TBD.
Unsure yet he had a pectoral strain that kept him out for 6 games last year let’s hope it’s not that bad
Gonna be 4 point dogs next week for sure
Ravens are the masters of choking
Let’s gooooooo
Armstead just looked at the scoreboard and said shit i think my toe hurts again, I think a burger will help, ayo COACH
He hurt his pec
So did anyone notice how much worse our offense got once Teron Armstead left the game? The night and day difference (even with Tua still in there) has me genuinely concerned. I hope he is able to come back next week.
idk i don’t think anyone picked up on it
This was the running narrative during game thread - but let's put into context that once Armstead went down - a couple of players (forgot who) had to switch out of their positions instantly. We can't expect them to suddenly know what their new assignments are for each play call. So yeah it's gonna suck - but things did stabilize a bit towards later half of fourth. If worst should happen and Armstead is out next week, then at least OLine has time to prep.
Nah you were the only one to notice that 😆
Nah. You must have been the only one to notice. Can you create a PowerPoint and share it with us?
Not the feel good ending we hoped for but have to keep in mind that the game dynamics often change when one team is up so much and so dominant. It becomes awkward and the losing team is playing more open and care free and the winning team struggles to keep the pressure and know when to push and when to back off. Personnel often changes as well. No concern there at all.
Dolphins Country, Let's Swim!
The Dolphins have a difficult schedule to end the year. This 3 game road trip coming up is key. Ideally, if they can go 2-1 I'd be happy. 3-0 I'd be ecstatic. Going 1-2 isn't great, but you can't go 0-3 that'd be awful.
God I hope we at least get a W against the Chargers, they've been looking pretty sus.
People need to stop with the “win is a win” rhetoric. We dominated and took some starters out, which made the game look closer than it was. Thanks goodness for taking Tua out b/c we sustained injuries on the OL b/c they were left in. Hope they are ok, but this game was not as close as people make it seem
I’m not a bad person, but the idea of Tom Brady coming back for one final season, getting divorced, having a losing record and missing the playoffs to end his career does bring me joy. Maybe I’m a bad person.
Woohooo - Jax upvote party!
We looked rust af and still put up 30
I would have liked 6 more points to make it 3 points per drive. It's a cover and a win. No one cares.
Alright lets go Rams!
Sorry to break it to you: their season is pretty much over (Stafford and Kupp are out). KC vs. LA is equivalent to MIA vs HOU.
That’s a TD. Holy shit Jags got to go for two
If we lose TA that 49ers defense will smoke us…
Bruh the Ravens lol
Tucker…
OH Boy
Lost of Rust coming from the Bye, Dolphins are gonna clean up next time out. It’s just a matter of hoping Terron and Jackson, as well as the other injuries are okay.
"lots of rust" 30 first half points. Losing the oline anchor and then sitting the mvp the second half will do that to ya.
Lol Brissett beat Brady.
49ers don’t look THAT good. But we absolutely need a healthy offensive line against them.
Murray is fun to watch, I want another Tua Murray game.
does anyone know if there’s a clip of waddle talking about jeff wilson? the broadcaster today was saying he said hes “scared of him” because he talks to himself lmao i’d love to hear that quote
This fanbase is insufferable. So much whining and crying during easy wins.
Its the game thread, dont generalize the fan base, Every teams game thread is mostly idiots that want to provide horrible opinions and emotional reactions
Man we have the most pathetic fanbase and toxic GDT for a game that was over at half .Texans were never going to comeback , they were going to do what professional athletes who get paid millions to play a game do try and not get embarrassed and at least get some points on the board and leave with some dignity .
the niners dline is going to blow our oline outta the water
Yea I don’t feel so good about our o-line if Armstead does not play I fear for our QB
Name 1 good thing Skyler Thompson has done for this team
Make us realize that fans should not run the team.
When he kneeled in victory formation he didn’t fumble he got the snap cleanly and put his knee on the ground
We can beat SF, but we have to play out of our minds. The Chargers are wishy-washy, they are 'good' then they can suck, so who knows. The @ Buffalo game is almost certainly a loss, but hopefully it's close. A blowout would be devastating to our morale. I'm terrified of the Green Bay game. Rogers is currently playing like the 39 year old has been that he is, but he still has the chops to explode.
Rodgers is playing with a broken thumb and he hasn't been in sync with his receivers all season. Buffalo and SF are highly competitive games and I see 50/50 IF Tua stays healthy.
We’re beating Buffalo
Bills fan lurking. I appreciate your mindset but I don't believe that the Buffalo-Miami game is almost certainly a loss for the Dolphins. Our defense has gotten much worse since we last played and Tua has ascended. It's gonna be a dog fight.
Not sure how you can be so confident in saying @ Buffalo is certainly a loss? They aren’t as good as last year and Josh Allen is playing injured. I expect that game to be very close. The only game I think we get smoked in is the 49ers game. Their D line will molest Tua if we can’t run the ball or they can’t protect him. But we definitely shouldn’t not be in confident for the Buffalo game.
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted for this. Everyone on this sub seems so downvote-happy. I don’t get it.
This might be the saltiest i've ever been after a 2 TD win. That was one ugly half of football.
Tua would throw for 6000 yards if he had Kelce Hill and Waddle
And apparently armstead
Biggest question now is Armstead's injury as we're about to head into the toughest stretch of the second half of season.
Jags in great position to beat the Ravens.
Ravens just coughed up a fumble.....jags could do us a favor here
jacksonville just blew it
Come on Sunshine. Show us why you were so highly touted coming into the NFL
That's a TD in ravens game
Jags are gonna win!
Jags u ballsy bastards I love ya!!
LFG!!!!!!
Duval and Dade locked in
Mahomes with 150 first half yards pffft. thats a .5 MVP performance.
On at least two of the Tua sacks, there were no blitz beaters and Houston brought 6. Tua and MM both said that the play calling was at fault and not the line, and I believe it. The sky's not falling. At least not yet..
Not being a doomer at all but I really did think McDaniel would bring more to the offense when Tua wasn't playing.
The armstead injury changed everything. Even with Tua in once armstead was out the offense went nowhere
Thompson is just not an NFL backup. He's really bad. He had plays where he had the time and just couldnt make the throws. Bridgewater could have and for sure Tua would have.
No idea why the Dolphins decided to take their foot off the gas but its a win
No, we SHOULD have let off the gas and called nothing but runs, but we kept the foot on the gas too long. Game went on way too long.
Thompson slinging the ball around was lunacy, even with our subpar running game today.
Biggest disappointment is that Tua and Tyreek are prob out of MVP running. Incompletions (due to rust) and being out of second half will drop their numbers.
He put up 300 yards, which is more than he is averaging per game, so not sure how that works.
Wtf are you talking about? Lol there's half a season left.
Lol there are 7 games left what are you talking about
[удалено]
Bub, I think McDaniel said easy on the gas when we were up by 30. No sense in playing your guys hard if you don't have to, let them rest more if you can. Harder games are coming up. Be grateful we got to let tua sit
we need armstead or we are done
You only fucked yourself gambling. Tyreek and players don’t owe you shit
Glad to see Mack ”Mike Gesicki” Hollins scoring a tuddy
hes been low key great this year.
I'm glad we still continue to throw the ball the way we did in the second half. Hill had cramps, the offensive line with garbage but Thompson needed these reps badly in case we need him in the future. People wanted us to just run the ball but that's not our offense.
[удалено]
Uh, We dont need anyone to help us out lol wtf? If anything, cinci needs this jags help.
Ugly as sin. Still a W. #FinsUp
Going into the brutal stretch of good defenses with AJ and Armstead potentially out. Stay healthy, Tua. We need you.
Let’s fucking go Jags!!!!
If KC loses, are we 1 or still 2?
I don’t have much hope for KC losing to the garbage Rams.
1 I believe.
