20-6 in the 4th, but should be about 42-6.

The offense reeks and now the defense is gassed and getting gashed for huge runs play after play.

Stupidity and sloppiness is the order of the day. Huge penalties, slipping and missed tackles, fumbled punt leads to a TD, a punt that should have been downed is walked into the end zone by Freeney, Martin can't control Smith......it goes on and on. Awful.

the bearer of bad news. Were you just waiting til the Niners got a decent lead to post this?
Why should it be 42-6? it was a close game until now. Thigpens fumble opened it up for San Fran.

Tannehill just threw a bomb right on the hands of Moore which should have gotten us right back in this game. Tanny's trying his best to keep us in this game. Just had a nice big run gain.

nice drive! well at least it's not 42 to 6. LOL

Bush runs well, so they bring in Thomas for two 2 yard carries on goal to go.. Fasano makes a one handed grab for a 4th down TD to keep hopes alive and help the coach out. Will there be a Santa Claus?

Dolphins stock is up again? LOL

Well...not if they can't cover Crabtree. He has to be well over a hundred yards receiving so far.

Cool... I am like a reverse barometer. They actually stopped Crabtree from getting a first down! I am predicting a 49er victory now!! It should guarantee a Dolphin victory!

Oh well...turned it over on downs....5 straight Tanny incompletions. The coverage has been very good though.....still, you have to make some of those throws.

Kaepernick gets an easy run for a long TD on 3rd and 5. Santa Claus has left the building and the Phins get the lump of coal. Yuck. 1st round pick Odrick lost contain and got embarrassed.

My grandmother could just about cover Miami Wr as slow as they are & she has been dead for 30 Yrs.

Tannehill throws it away on 4th and 11......goodness......out with a whimper.

Dierdoof says Miami is on an upward curve and getting better??? Weren't we 7-9 last year? I see one win left on our schedule and after the horrible stretch we had against crap teams I am being very optimistic thinking we can beat Jacksonville. That would give us 6-10 for a record. Hard to say the team is getting better......

San Francisco should have scored more. Still....they got the W by two TD's.

I hope they don't. Want the best draft position.

How? or they just should have?

The D did not play well all game. Kaepernick humiliated them on that big TD run and Gore ran it down their throat the previous TD drive. The defense played well for a half....

Dierdorf pointed that out all game. Tanny put passes there for big plays, and against the nastiest defense in the league. I'm confident this offense will be good when we add some more talent. I would sign Jennings and draft a big receiver in the first 2 rounds.

he was hoping for that result. LOL

I wish people would stop wanting to sign the injury prone Jennings. He may still have some ability, but he stays hurt.

I did not get to see the last half of the game. Is 42-6 a real estimate or frustration speaking in hyperbole?

Y'know , the last 2 games now we played teams that are just plain better than us. We played them tough but in the end their talent just won out. It seems that this current team is no different than past ones. We play down to our lesser opponents while playing up to the better ones. Unfortunately it means losing close games to those better ones like we just saw & losing some of those to the lesser teams like the losses to the Jets , Bills , Titans & Cardinals.

Can't hate on RT today guys, the dude did what he can do. I agree Mitch, they are SB teams.

What sucks though, is Miami and SF both sucked and were rebuilding. Since then, Miami is still rebuilding and SF is playing for home field and Super Bowl bids.

Why can't the Dolphins properly evaluate talent and turn it around? We are one step above the true garbage teams like Cleveland, Oakland and KC, but that is all.

I wish I knew.

6-10 with a 4th year head coach and 3rd year starter (in his 4th season). This team has a rookie head coach and a rookie starting quarterback. We've been competitive most of the season and are right about where most experts though we would be. Forgive me if I don't look at things through the same jaded lenses as you but I agree with Dierdorf, I think we're on our way up. We just need time, patience, and consistency.

Yeah , I looked at this game when I first saw it on the schedule & thought it was a good evaluation as to where these 2 teams were since having the top 2 picks in the draft years ago.



I see this point as well but lets face it , for the most part Dierdorf is considered dierdork around here until he says something positive about the Dolphins. Bust doesnt it seem that this is how we always are .... usually competitive but in the end looking at next seasons draft & free agents by Thanksgiving. Oh & by the way , in 3 years when we have another rookie head coach do we then offer another 2 year honeymoon period? Philbin was the OC for years on a super bowl team in what is arguably the best Football city in the world (yeah sorry , even better than Miami) while he is a rookie head coach he is hardly a novice at this.
