Agree. WR depth is now a VERY SERIOUS concern. I do feel fairly confident in Austin and Hodgins' ability to step in for a few games if needed, but injuries to them or any of our other rostered WRs and we are in a code red situation. IMO, we need to be auditioning vet WRs starting today.

Maybe they feel bad about Super Bowl XXV and stealing our assistant gm

We are the number one D in the league and we are doing this against the good teams on our schedule. This isn't like last year. We are truly elite now.

Looked like an ankle to me.

Cook's been a collosal disappointment so far. Starting to agree with the folks who have criticized his demeanor/body language. Doesn't seem to fit with our company culture.

Agree. The D was huge. Only gave up 296 yards today. Still haven't allowed 300+ this season, which is pretty crazy with today's high powered offenses. And it's not like we've been playing a bunch of bums. These are all veteran quarterbacks.

My concern is collarbone with the way they collided in the end zone.

Poyer and Milano!!! What games by those two!!! A nod to Devin who got it together after his fumble. And Josh, as always, is the friggin man!

THE "NARRATIVE" CAN OFFICIALLY GO TO HELL!!!!!

Now that's clock management!!!

Don't forget they have the GOAT FG kicker. Get the damn TD.

Murphy and Wood thought it was a terrible call too. It wasn't roughing. Sorry.

Playcalling is garbage. You have to pass there with the two minute warning sure to stop the clock. Disgusted.

He did earlier on drive and it backfired.

Yes

Oh man. Lil Dirty done. Are we just cursed this year?

Josh's supporting cast didn't come to play today. That much is clear.

This team sucks in short yardage situations. Lots of warts

I read through their real time reaction on Finheaven and, oh my, what a dreadful place and people. Great place to hang out if you want to quickly lose faith in humanity. They're our rivals, we just lost a heartbreaker to them, and the Tua injury is the biggest story in football. Otherwise, I agree.

That's Moss's true value, not as a "power back". Moss is a good blocker and he has reliable hands as a safety valve. That's why he's getting so many reps.

If we play well and lose, I'll be frustrated because I know how good this team can be when mostly healthy, but I won't be devastated. It's a long season and the goal is to be on top at the end, and I believe we have the potential to do that regardless of tomorrow's outcome. But it's really all in the way we lose. If we lose ugly and some serious long-term warts start to (re-)surface, I'll be concerned.

Looks like a heavy tape job to me on that left ankle. And he's clearly not applying any pressure to it. This is just more injury report fun and games from Belichick. The kid ain't playing any time over the next 3-4 weeks.

I've gotten my "bell wrung" a few times as an adult by bouncing my head off the ground in mountain bike crashes, but never went to the ER. Just headaches and tiredness for the rest of that day. Had one concussion in a high school summer league basketball game after taking a knee to the head while diving for a lose ball. Didn't lose consciousness, but saw stars and was wobbly when I tried to get up and walk, similar to what we saw from Tua on Sunday. Went home that evening and went straight to bed and was still asleep when my Mom got home from work the next day - I had slept for basically 20 hours straight - it was the strangest thing. Little nauseous that evening, but was basically fine when I woke up the following morning.

I agree, Bill. I can't really blame the independent neurologist. There are tests and if Tua clears them, he's good to go. But there are supposed to be independent spotters who look for visual signs of a concussion on the field, and there were multiple signs, we all saw them clear as day when he wobbled and his arms went up towards his head (that ain't no back injury). Once those are spotted, the guy needs to be put on ice for the rest of the game, and that didn't happen. That's where the failure took place. Not sure if that's a team thing or an NFL thing or what. So it's hard to pin the blame on the Dolphins coaches or doctors. If Tua passed the standard concussion tests, the Fins are going to play him, just as any other team in the league would have. Now it's on the NFL going forward to put in more stringent measures to protect these guys in similar situations. It might be as severe as if a guy shows any signs of neurological impairment on the field, he's done for that game and the following week. I don't know enough about the science of head injuries, but additional protections are warranted, IMO.

So f'ing irresponsible on the part of the Dolphins! I'm seriously pissed off right now for Tua.
