MNF Colts v Dolphins (1 Viewer)

[RickyRolled]

the IDEA of starting the 2 minute offense with two minutes left wasn't half bad.

The EXECUTION? ughh

 

[duaneok66]

how do you lose when you have the ball on offense for 45 minutes and hold manning to only 15 minutes. wow.

"Points come out of the passing game!!"Ron Jaworski

 

[perry147]

Pennington's got to be the only QB in the league for whom a throw from the opponents' 30 is a "hail mary."

 

[ffball-novice]

Apparently TOP is overrated. They average almost 2 points per minute of possession.

Now it's off to a colts board to watch the fans start the bonfire to sacrifice a DC.

 

[piratemike]

Utterly disappointing end to an otherwise fun game to watch. Hats off to you, Peyton.

When you milk the clock too early it comes back to haunt you.

Peyton Manning is classy.

Wow, notice the contrast in the post-game interview from Manning vs. Brady. Peyton was friendly and respectful, Brady had a too-cool-for-school piss poor attitude.

 

[Bills_Fan11]

Nice job by Henning hoping that a 3 point lead with 4 minutes left would be enough.

Did he think Jamarcus Russell was the Colts QB?

Couldn't agree more. Solid coaching choice there to go with the two minute offense while trailing with two minutes left.

Yet he managed to hit Ginn in the hands when it counted(?)

How many points does your league give you for positive post-game interviews? Sliding scale based on pep and zest of interviewee?

Nah, Orton's hail mary is probably about 20 yards.

Sincere question here. Do you honestly believe your post about Brady v Manning had no tool factor.Don't throw insults or flame players without expecting someone to call you out on it.

Someone gets it.

 

[az_prof]

No one will remember this but how important was that horrible call at the end of the first half where the INT was overturned (no objective person would have ruled that the CB did not have possesion)???? The Colts completed a pass after that and got a FG to tie the game. Those three points at the end of the game meant that Miami needed a TD otherwise they could have kicked a FG on the IND 30 at the end of the game to win.

Horrible call, and I am a MN fan, not a Miami fan. Simply horrible. Sometimes I wonder what those guys are seeing--I can understand mistakes on the field but I hate it when the instant replay is so obviously decided incorrectly. Horrible.

sincere response, i honestly believe that peyton should he's a classier athlete. brady wouldn't even stop running. it's not that big a deal, and you don't get fantasy points for it.

I watched the replay and no way was that an INT.

[Jimmy James]

By the current rule, that wasn't an INT. It's a bad rule if you ask me, but they got the call right by the rule. I say that as a Dolphins fan.

that wasn't even close to an interception . . .

That wasn't even close to a catch. The ball was bouncing all over the place and came out as soon as he hit the ground.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

That reminded me of so many Colts/Jaguars games. The Colts seem like they're getting dominated the whole time until they win.

Apparently you did not watch last week's MNF game. Wilson's INT was nowhere near as close to being a reception.

 

[thekidd2009]

I think the dolphins lost the game because they couldn't make any open field tackles. Manning throws for 300+ on 14 completions and it wasn't like he was throwing 30 yard bombs. Gibril Wilson looked absolutely atrocious tonight and i'm not sure what the hell he was doing tonight. Dallas Clark absolutely torched us tonight as did Tony G last week. It almost looks like any tightend is a must start against the dolphins. Look out next week for Gates. This could get ugly for the dolphins going across country to San Diego. We could be 0-3 and be in must win mode for the rest of the season. Our Schedule is to difficult to be giving up games like that one.

It isn't just Colts/Jags games that are like that. It seems like most Colts games since 2006 are like that. This was just an extreme example of this.

 

[Knobs]

This game just shows off the greatness that is Peyton Manning.

That #18 is pretty good, huh?

I don't know what a INT a week ago has to do with the price of tea in China. Look--a man either catches it or he doesn't--and he caught it. I just don't see where there was even a question. Did you see the ball fall out of his hands? What? How was it not a catch?

Several people in this thread have said it wasn't an interception. It wasn't. He didn't retain possession of the ball as he was coming down.

I won't get into a tool argument with you. I don't trust "several people." I believe what I see. You can see the replay here--despite what the media say the CB clearly has possession and the ground forces the fumble. http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2009092100/2...phins#tab:watch

When a player goes down, he has to main possession until his motion is stopped ("all the way down"). It has been the rule for a few seasons now. I remember Chris Chambers losing a glorious TD reception to this rule, possibly back when it only applied to out of bounds end zone situations.

 

[Knobs]

Listen - it's a stupid rule but it's the rule. He did NOT maintain possession as he hit the ground.

I thought it was a very clear non-int. As did others in this thread. As did the announcers (guys who have played, coached, and covered football for their entire adult lives).

If you're going to ignore all of that then more power to you.

Got a nickel on the Colts to cover, getting a little nervous..

The ground didn't cause a fumble. It caused an incomplete pass.As everyone else pointed out, this wasn't even close. This isn't a case of you seeing something different than everyone... you just don't understand the rule.

 

[Sarnoff]

and the ground forces the fumble.

The most misquoted "rule" in all of football. If he lost possession upon hitting the ground, by the actual rule, it was not a catch.

 

[DrJ]

Pennington's got to be the only QB in the league for whom a throw from the opponents' 30 is a "hail mary."

Nah, Orton's hail mary is probably about 20 yards.

Nah, he can heave it 50 yards. He just can't get it within 5-10 yards of where we wants it when he does.

 

[D_House]

Posted this in the AC forum, but can anyone here comment on whether Ginn is still Miami's KR and if so, why he didn't handle returns on Monday night?
