Phil Simms triage: "he looks ok because he's walking off the field"

 

[kieran_vale]

Great work by Easley there, that sack was all about him even if Jones gets the stat.

Tannehill made a couple of nice throws though especially the one on third and long at the start of the drive.

 

[kieran_vale]

Penalty for clipping? Haven't heard of that one before I must admit.

[kieran_vale]

They've been away for a couple of weeks but the LOLphins are back. Oh dear.

 

[Renegade]

It's almost as though playing the Titans and the Texans wasn't enough preparation for playing the Patriots.

Good night Miami.

 

[kieran_vale]

On the positive side for the Phins that's probably the best punt I've seen this season. Was a monster of a kick.

 

[Renegade]

Cameron Wake is supoib.

 

[kieran_vale]

Great work by Chandler Jones there.

Starting to get a pissed off with the penalties the Pats keep giving up. Got the obligatory block in the back on the punt return now as well. The only thing keeping them in this.

 

[kieran_vale]

Nice jumping the route by Logan Ryan there. Good work.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

You can't throw that. Did he even look?

 

[kieran_vale]

More fucking penalties from the Pats. First half has shown all the hallmarks of another TNF "classic".

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

How has Malcom Brown been getting on for y'all

 

[kieran_vale]

He's done ok. Hasn't really stood out (but he is a rookie so expected) but I think long term can see him settling in to the sort of role Vince Wilfork had for us.

Since when did Pat Chung become good in coverage?

 

[kieran_vale]

Even though it was against us I'm glad to see OPI called more this season than previous years. Only fair given how defensive players have literally been straight-jacketed for years now.

Made no odds anyway. Free run for Dion Lewis, poor from the Phins.

 

[Renegade]

That kick sums up the game. Time for sleep.

 

[kieran_vale]

That's awful from Tannehill. Need to ice this one now.

That has pretty much killed me in fantasy already

 

[Anon]

Annoying thing about Fantasy is you can't see the draft order from the original auction, unless I'm missing something. Would be interesting to see what order players went.

 

[Anon]

Patriots first part of the accumulator... tick. Vikings, Cards and Rams to complete it.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Texas O has 2 plays that work:

1. Fast, elusive QB tucks ball and makes people miss.
2. Big, strong QB tucks ball and trucks down hill behind lead blocks.

Everything else = dumpster fire.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

omg miami

 

[RavenBish]

Vontaze Burfict is baaaccckkkkk

6-0 team just got one of their best players back. I doubt he'll play many snaps today though.

Biggest atm is that Leon Hall is questionable - he normally has good games against Steelers as they love WR screens and I'm not sure there's a better CB in the NFL when it comes to diagnosing screens and stopping them, even if he doesn't have that deep speed anymore.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

And now for your regularly scheduled military orientated salat, for the authentic NFL gameday experience!

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Alex Smith = OPEN FIELD TERROR

 

[Bobbin']

Detroit just allowed a QB to run 49 yards

 

[RavenBish]

Lions are not good

 

[Bobbin']

Stafford would be right at home in Houston.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

get lee dixon off my fucking tv now

 

[Bobbin']

Did Shaun Gayle play for the Chicago Bears?
