Dolphins Find a Way to Win, Finally!

The 2007 chase for historic futility has been de-railed.

But give Miami credit, they did everything possible to lose it.

With 1:56 left in the game the Dolphins kicked a field goal and took a three point lead against a team that hadn't come close to scoring in the entire second half. In fact the Ravens had posted a whopping 16 total yards in the second half.

So, with under two minutes left, the promptly marched down the field stalling on the one yard line. The kicked a field goal and took it to overtime.

Baltimore got the ball first and causally walked it down the field. Then the Ravens missed a 44 yard field goal. Then the Dolphins finally scored and a touchdown, no less.

The Dolphins are an amazingly bad team but at least they won't get that dubious distinction.

Could you please leave the Dolphins coverage to me in the future? I live in South Florida and watched the game in its entirety. Seeing you were going to snap off a post quickly, I did a short post and had it up on the blog two minutes after Miami scored the winning TD. You still beat me to the punch. So I deleted the post. No sense in talking about something already written about. This is the second time I wanted to post something post game and had someone else do it instead.

You can have the other 31 NFL teams, all of the NBA and College basketball if you want. Leave me Miami Dolphins, Pro Golf and Horse racing. I've written over 100 Dolphin posts since I begun blogging.

Thanks

This is just totally disheartening.

It takes a special team to run the table in reverse.

Good for the Dolphins. They have lost six games by three points or less this season, and could just as easily be above .500.
