been carrying MOST of the year.. d had a few bad games but kept us in most of the losses.. and Achane is the only consistant W on offense.. shows up every week
I've been watching you for years now, and I just want to say thank you for your dedication to providing excellent Doplhins related content. God bless you and your family Doug. Have a very merry Christmas!
Tua threw 34 times and we ran 30 times total. Thats called BALANCE! The prob is when Tua has to throw 40-45 times a game (min) to make up for no run game. Then we become predictable & easy to defend. But if we can maintain Balance & defense plays solid, sky is the limit! 💯 Phins up! 🐬
Wait what did Tyrek Hill just said to the press,that he just need more rest for veterans and more time practice with Tua, seriously seriously seriously seriously seriously, that's flipping garbage out of his mouth. Shame on this franchise team, shame on them for the poor performance of him can't catch a ball making excuses for.
@@Desman228if we finish 9-8 with TUA missing 4 games that js crazy good. Are we a SB team NO. But it means we are close. Just need to build the lines add a big bodied WR and new safeties and have better luck with injuries etc.. we have core pieces.
@dave34573 All teams have injury problems, including Kansas City. I used to talk like you for 40 years now when it comes to the dolphins. If we, if we, if we, then they lose, it's been over 40 years for me it ain't happening!!
@@dave34573 Miami is not close to being a SB team and that window is closed. If they have 3 wins in the last 3 years against teams with winning records what makes you think they’re close? You don’t play losing record teams in the playoffs. They also better be good enough to take the division from Buffalo and be competitive for the #1 seed because being 0-7 in games 45 degrees and below is a recipe for disaster in the playoffs. Miami is nowhere close to a Super Bowl contender.
trenches are not bad, offensively 60% are great/decent.. just these goddamn guards finally we get a decent guard in there and wouldn't you know we can run the fucking ball.
On the subject of Jevon Holland, i'm sure the injury from last season's MCL against the Jets if i remember correctly is the reason this seasons performance is down. He looks unsure of himself physically.
Absolutely right! We have a great core to work with. Just bothers me we aren't willing to move on from Grier rn tho...I rlly think the sooner the better but what do I know.
Achane is Solid and hope we keep him around a long time, Waddle was inactive so its nice to see we can improvise and move the ball with enough other talent on the field
This game reminded me of playing Buffalo in 2022 where as the game went on, the niners were melting in the humidity and Purdy started one hopping passes.
Yeah the defense and the run game was good today but other then that it was just bad, the OL can’t block and I didn’t think we were gonna win this game but ik we’re not gonna win the next 2 games and also Merry Christmas everyone.
Pretty much agree with everything you have to say here Doug. I'll admit I am one of those people who wanted us to lose out to get Grier gone. HOWEVER, I was looking to see if the team showed up today and they did. There is very much a core to be built around, but heres the thing. Miami has had issues retaining these core players, we had other players last year that could have been listed amongst the names you mentioned as this core, but we let them leave. Whos to say in a few years we won't let achane, washington, sieler, etc, walk? We've done it time and time again. Love Achane though, kid is the truth. One more fun fact, in the last 19 years we've managed to go somewhere between 6/7-10 - 8/9-9/8 FIFTEEN out of those 19 seasons. Consistent mediocrity. That should be what Ross sees when he evaluates Chris Grier's body of work.
Ya know the number I wanna see? How much money have the Dolphins paid players, coaches and front office over this 24 year span of garbage. It’s a really big number with nothing to show for it.
If we could get an Oline that can run block and make some lanes for our backs we could force teams to move up and try to stop the run which would then open up the passing game. I know easier said than done but it really needs to be a focus in the draft and FA...with Achane and Wright we have really good backs with breakaway speed but right now teams are just gonna sit back with 2 deep safeties and take away those passes. Right now our Offense is basically RB screens and TE screens...I dont want to waste all the talent we do have on the roster...hopefully it gets figured out soon...Fins Up!!
People are so quick to go at Tyreek hill like if he isn’t the reason everyone is open and the run game was easy. He has a broken hand and he only had 1 drop. The other one was tipped
Miami is still alive Doug let’s go… great game overall. If Denver loses to Cincinnati watch out next week. Miami could be coming and sneak in last week of season. Let’s go 🐬🐬🐬🐬
Bye bye Greir gotta go But we don’t want playoff games ,real teams will break the spirit of this entire team and humiliate them in front of the world !!
Holland doesn't want to be here. I saw it coming halfway through the season. Let em go he's not that good!! Kick Rocks 🪨 Holland 😝 He can't tackle period. Ever since he got hurt last year he's not the same player
Can something be boring and entertaining at the same time? It was right on the edge of not being competitive and then SF kept closing it back up. And maybe Hill should start wearing those sticky gloves.
I want Chris Grier fired. If that takes us losing the playoffs, I technically understand that's in my best interest but I never want the Dolphins to lose!
Missed the show live but just watched it. Always love your content and videos. Kind of a random question but since he is basically the entire offense this year, if Achane was a FA what is his value on the market? Would the dolphins over pay for him? Sorry two questions. Happy Holidays!
I agree with you.. I don’t think they can do anything in the playoffs. Once again, we are relying on other teams to lose or win, just to get in. Teams that are true contenders, do not rely on other team’s performance. Your either a competitor or a pozer..
We are still not a playoff team guys don't let this win fool you the dolphins are not a playoff team if they go to the playoffs they were going to lose in the first round to Buffalo 2025 should be our year if Chris Greer is out has GM and we get a GM who knows how to drive in the trenches Fins up 🐬🐬🐬🐬
@@ZGh0st1422 where would the game be? In Buffalo. What would the weather be like? Likely cold and snowy. Does this team have any success in those conditions? Absolutely not, they’re 0-7 in those elements.
@@ZGh0st1422 lmao ok, what are his regular numbers in cold weather games? Usually not good. “He HaD gReAt NuMbErS iN gReEn BaY” yeah 110 yds at the half and down 3 TDs. How’d he look in KC in the playoffs? How about Buffalo to end last year?
@ yeah people that weren’t standing in front of heaters. Did any of the chiefs players go to the hospital? Didn’t think so. The Bills game was 53 degrees throughout the game, if you think that’s cold then you’re an idiot. 53 degrees is sweatshirt weather at worst.
I'm sorry. But something just doesn't line up for me. We need to get rid of the guy half responsible for picking up free agents and drafting, but we're always upset when we lose our own. Most often very happy with free agents. Where exactly is Grier the issue?
Doug, the Steelers hold onto everybody regardless of what happens....coach, etc......year after year. Then everyone says, "The Steelers know how to run an organization." Why does not the same thing apply to us? The Steelers don't go to the playoffs every year?
Grier is bringing in more olinemen ( Keion Smith was suppose to start at Guard this season till he had season ending knee injury and rookie Patrick Paul LT played good for a rookie LT when he filled in for Armstead ) !!! Defensively need to do the samething get good back up players to compliment the starters doing all of this through the Draft, UDFA'S, and Free Agends !!! Remember Greir had to first clear up the books when Tannenbaum and Parcells ran up a lot of money to just win A Playoff game where with Grier he doesnt have near that kind of $$$ wasted spent and the Dolphins found their Franchise QB1 Tua their RBs and WRs Tyreek and Waddle and TE Jonnu all are very good skilled players and under McDaniel theyve gone to the Playoffs back to back times. Grier found our franchise QB1 has found the future LT in PAUL and Guard Keion Smith which would've started if not having knee ending surgery and signed C Brewer and with this roster under Grier, McDaniel and Tua they shouldve beaten Bills lost on the last drive of the Bills last second field goal and THAT WAS IN THE COLD and samething with the Cardnials!!! SMH!!! Of course the TEAM is playing for HC McDaniel. Heres an example McDaniel's presser he said he and Calis Campbell talked and Calis Campbell wanted to stay with the Dolphins to make a run and thats a 17 year vet believeing in HC McDaniel that should say everything to you!!! Campbell even agreed that happened in his presser. SMH!!! FINS UP
Ecstatic for this win, I’m seeing signs of decay in Tyreek- maybe we can still make a trade - truth be told I can’t wait to finish this season… one way or another
Our defense can’t tackle, it’s very frustrating
Achane is tough , imagine him with consistent blocking
Tough? Okay, but he's small. He's not plowing over anyone, he has to try to go around them. Not too intimidating.
Achane and the defense single handedly carried this team to victory
been carrying MOST of the year.. d had a few bad games but kept us in most of the losses.. and Achane is the only consistant W on offense.. shows up every week
Waddle has been pretty consistent as well
@ Achane was our leading rusher and receiver this game
They have been doing that most of the season
Hill had so many drops. I think we should trade him and try and use that hm towards improving the trenches
We did it!!! Sanders, Tua, Achane and Smith and Campbell and Sieler are MVP’s of the game
MVP is for 1 player not 5 lol
You can take Tua name outta that
@@TheRedsox040711 tyreek had 2 drop td passes idiot
Tua didn't do anything wrong little hater@@TheRedsox040711
Defense and special teams won the game offense didn’t do anything crazy
McDaniel got pissed bout time showing he cares
I've been watching you for years now, and I just want to say thank you for your dedication to providing excellent Doplhins related content. God bless you and your family Doug. Have a very merry Christmas!

The problem is when run into above .500 teams or cold weather . That's usually when we see little Tuna freeze his balls out
The teams that are similar to us have a run game
@Ima-c6t Wrong. The problem is during cold games McDaniel tries to get to cute and he abandons the run game.
Tf are u talking about Tua has never thrown 40-45 times in any game that I’m aware of we abandon the run game constantly tho
Tua should have had 3 tuddies but a win is a win 😂🙏🏿❤
Tyreek might want to work on that catching thing
Tyreek is good at catching baby mamas. Dolphins need to get rid of Hill.
If only Tyreek caught those passes
Bad throw by tua
@ hit him right in the hands twice 🤦🏿♂️you just can’t make this stuff up anymore 😂
Wynn comes in, we have a run game. COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT
Wasn't in for long. Eichenberg was in for a lot of it
I heard he only played half the snaps with Eikenberg get the other half
Wynn was activated against houston. Not sure y we didnt use him but whatever
A win is a win.
Penalty’s killed drives and tyreek needs to catch dude
I think it’s about time to move Jallen Ramsey to safety and get us some fresh young talent at corner, and draft a safety
Wait what did Tyrek Hill just said to the press,that he just need more rest for veterans and more time practice with Tua, seriously seriously seriously seriously seriously, that's flipping garbage out of his mouth. Shame on this franchise team, shame on them for the poor performance of him can't catch a ball making excuses for.
Grier built the core of the team so it’s a contradiction statement. Grier good. One other thing love your dolphins recap #1 ranking in my book.
This just makes the Colts, Cardinals, and second Buffalo game hurt more lol.
Also your dad is hilarious. Reminds me of my old man.
Yes, should have never lost to the Cards, Colts and Titans
Nice W! Great stuff as always Dougie!
Your dad coming back 🤣 classic
If Miami goes 9-8 after being 2-6 I will be amazed
we will be 9-8 . 2 on Rodgers will be great
By beating crappie teams and losing to teams with winning records? SMH
@@Desman228if we finish 9-8 with TUA missing 4 games that js crazy good. Are we a SB team NO. But it means we are close. Just need to build the lines add a big bodied WR and new safeties and have better luck with injuries etc.. we have core pieces.

From someone from Ohio, next Sunday it is supposed to be anywhere from 40-50 and rainy. Should make for an interesting game up at the lake
My Achane jersey came just in time for this game!
A win for Xmas, Happy Christmas mate.
I wish our defense would stop looking for the BIG hits and just wrap offenses up.
Merry Christmas Dolphans 29-17 🔥🐬🔥🐬🔥🐬🔥
trenches are not bad, offensively 60% are great/decent.. just these goddamn guards finally we get a decent guard in there and wouldn't you know we can run the fucking ball.
On the subject of Jevon Holland, i'm sure the injury from last season's MCL against the Jets if i remember correctly is the reason this seasons performance is down. He looks unsure of himself physically.
Achane needs to allow the nickname A-Train - it will enhance his visibility 😮
Big game from Sanders, Achane and the defense. Hope that Waddle can play next game
I don’t care what anyone says we are Super Bowl bound if we make it to playoffs
😂 thats cute , you must be a new dolfan
Haha funny NOT
Rainbows & Fairydust
Are you overdosing on over the counter medication or prescription?
Absolutely right! We have a great core to work with. Just bothers me we aren't willing to move on from Grier rn tho...I rlly think the sooner the better but what do I know.
Going to the game Sunday in Cleveland supposed to be 49-59 degrees rainy, don’t stress the cold this game
Nice win for the team.
Run Game looked very good today!!
Achane is Solid and hope we keep him around a long time, Waddle was inactive so its nice to see we can improvise and move the ball with enough other talent on the field
Thank you

Tyreek catch the ball dude but hey a win is a win
great game . I like the way we block for 28
Achane is on pace for for 860 rushing yards and 86/656 receiving
Heart attack we actually threw to Hill.
No, Doug is right. Greer needs to go MacDaniel needs to give up play calling or he needs to go.‼️‼️‼️

Film breakdown tomorrow?
After Jevon’s neck injury in Buffalo last season he’s been total aids
Fins for the Win!!
Duke Riley #45 why…?
We should make a drinking game where we take a shot wheneve poyer gets trucked.
Can something be boring and entertaining at the same time? It was right on the edge of not being competitive and then SF kept closing it back up. And maybe Hill should start wearing those sticky gloves.

One touchdown was tipped
it hit him right in the hands
anyone that wants their team to lose isn't really a fan.
I’m done being mediocre I’m done just making it to the playoffs. We need to get tougher. We need to build this offensive line and the D line.
Sanders was money
Doug Holland has a bad hand don’t you remember?
I always said achane is the future rb for us
Ross is easily pleased. Gives a game ball to McDaniel for beating another team with a loosing record. Probably gave one to Grier too.
Grier has a great 2024 draft class...4 NFL starters

LOL Hi Dad!
I really wish we handled business against the Texans now
The Colts most likely won't lose again with the Giants and Jaguars on the schedule.
DDW let's go Fins where is pops
The game is won in the trenches. As long as Grier doesn't believe in building a stronger O-line and D-line, this team will never go past mediocracy.
Ecstatic for this win, I’m seeing signs of decay in Tyreek- maybe we can still make a trade - truth be told I can’t wait to finish this season… one way or another
Could someone tell me when was the last time the Dolphins beat the 49ers?
I believe it was 2020. Flo was the coach & Fitzpatrick was still starting at QB. 🐬
Like, 4 years ago
Have we won 3 games in a row?
No we beat the jets lost to the texans and now this.
You know if you actually got in, you would come back to orchard Park. Good luck.
Please Hire ray agnew , the lions assistant GM and fire Grier!
