    How about we ALL quit questioning eachothers dedication to the team?

    being pissed about ****ty play or a disappointing showing is doesn't make you less of a fan. Neither does blindly cheering a shoddy performance.

    The fact that anyone is questioning the loyalty of another fan on a Miami Dolphins message board is a joke to begin with..

    I've always wondered why Miami, Dallas, and the Redskins wear their white jerseys at home. Does Miami do it to get a small advantage over the other team because of the heat?

    Sorry its a stupid question, but that's always bugged me for some reason. The aqua jerseys are cool.

    He's picked up a fumble, made a key tackle on a runner in the goal line.

    When someone is triple teamed, someone else normally steps up and relieves the pressure. Nobody on our team is stepping up.

    I know it's hard to realize, but nothing we type here has any effect whatsoever on the team or any of the players. It doesn't reflect it, it doesn't influence it, it's totally unrelated.

    Not a very good first half ... offense looks confused and scared ... but then this is the Ravens ... they do that to a lot of teams ... I never thought they would rattle CP ... but even he has that deer in the headlights look

    ummm pretty sure he is trying, not to sure what you are getting at? He has put pressure on flacco, and no one else has helped him.

    Yeah it's not like they're killing us. If they don't trip Ginn maybe he makes the tackle on Reed or adjusts to the ball and knocks it away. Who knows.

    10 points isn't that much, and we get the ball back first. Keep your spirits up.

    Given how the game is going, it will doubtless be less painful to focus on you.

    Yep...Pennington looks a little rattled, two Int's, but one was bonehead, the other a misthrow (now there is some spin)...

    Our O can only improve in the 2nd half...

    1. Penny...stop trying to do to much.
    2. Wr...make a play.

    bottom line is its tough to win big games w/o a big arm at QB and a WR to spread the field

    two picks by Pennington... out of character for him. Marino was right so far... I'd think about switching up the OL in the second half... Alleman is getting owned every play it seems. Put Johnson at Center and move Satele to RG? CP needs to make a play downfield. BUt we can also get back into it by running the damn ball... don't go away from your offense.

    we need cobbs to get a good return to start the half, unfortunately we can't have ginn returning punts and kicks right now when he is 1 of 2 WR's we have healthy. Bess came back in but who knows whats going on.

    That fumble was the best thing for our D all game.

    Our O has played uncharacteristic football which has led to the only touchdown of the game.

    We have really got to change things around here in the second half.

    I'm so ****ing pissed off right now.

    But it's not over til the unibrow flacco sings.

    I think the Ravens are primed to give up a big play on some trickery right now. The way they flow to the ball can easily be used against them right now. They're TOO pumped if you ask me.

    Why didnt our O work on defending INT returns at all btw? The lines some of them took to tackle Reed were hideous, that should not have been a TD.

    I must confess here. The entire week as I read Ravens' fans posts, I bank on one thing not happening again. Terrell Suggs got the INT for the TD in the first matchup. Ed Reed got it this time.

    My theory for this game was shot by that one play. We could not afford to make that mistake. We still have 30 minutes to play but I am now doubting success. This game should be 6-3 just as in the last matchup it should have been a one score game BEFORE we were in a desperate 4th quarter situation.

    It's a two score game and that doesn't bode well for our offense versus this defense. The game was about OUR defense versus THEIR defense. That interception changed the game.

    It looks from here like they are totally in control of this game. If it wasn't for bad offensive play calling, they'd be up by at least 20 right now. They don't need more than a 7 point lead to feel comfortable with the way their D is playing. Right now, a 10 point lead seems pretty much insurmountable unless our D can run a TO back for a TD.

    Have to say it's playing out as I expected, though I figured Baltimore might be up bigger.

    No shame being down 13-3 to a physically better and more advanced team. Can't fix it all in one season. We get the ball in the second half, hopefully not on our own goalline. We'll see.

    Still, we're getting beaten up right now. At this rate, they're going to be fresher than us as the game wears on. And we're getting no pressure on Flacco without blitzing.

    well we are definitely going to need to do a better job in the second half on offense. We haven't been able to move the ball at all on the ravens. Chad needs to relax and get back to making good, smart decisions with the football. The line needs to do a better job protecting. They've been getting handled most of the game.

    Defensively... we need to get pressure on flacco. he's had WAY too much time to throw the ball. Porter is being double teamed all day, so somebody else needs to step up. thats been the story all season long though.

    What a pathetic showing.

    Horrible play calling to go with horrible QB play.

    Great to know Pennington has his worst performance of the season in the playoffs.

    What a terrible first half.

    Pennington needs to pick it up, and quickly.

    And can we please get some ****ing pressure on Flacco?

    Penny needs to settle down, right now, our Oline is a bit on their heels, we will know what the 2nd half will be like in the first couple of plays...

    Let's not play the second half then since they are godly and can't be beaten.

    It's ten points, if you want to give up go ahead. All we need is one score and it's anyones game once again.

    You know, for as bad as things are, it's still only a 10 point game, and we get the ball coming out of half. We score, and it's suddenly 13-10. They still have a rookie on the other side of the ball, too.

    the first pick, anyone think Ted is partially at fault?? He was open... CP threw it too far outside, but it did touch Ted's hands... Cutler would be upset, LOL...

    Chad looks today a lot like he did for us 2002 in the Divisional Round at Oakland. Scared. Has that kind of fear in his eyes. Very unusual for him.

    In the end Miami has to be happy to only be down by 10, as Aqua4Ever said.
