But I did get to follow the Mitch Miller bouncing ball down the animated field on the league website. It was a rather kooky game that Minnesota led, 14-0, in the second quarter and still led, 17-14, at the start of the fourth. Then this happened:<br /><br />MIA TD L.Miller 1 yd. run (C.Sturgis kick) (9-64, 3:39)<br />MIN FG B.Walsh 33 yd. Field Goal (9-64, 5:05)<br />MIA TD M.Wallace 7 yd. pass from R.Tannehill (C.Sturgis kick) (8-80, 3:13)<br />MIN TD J.Wright 8 yd. pass from T.Bridgewater (M.Asiata run) (5-60, 1:53)<br />MIN TD M.Asiata 5 yd. run (B.Walsh kick) (1-5, 0:05)<br />MIA TD D.Williams 3 yd. pass from R.Tannehill (C.Sturgis kick) (11-80, 3:24)<br />MIA SFTY Punt blocked by T.Fede out of bounds in end zone for a Safety <br /><br />And Minnesota's last touchdown was preceded by a Miami fumble at its own 5 on a kickoff return on which the Dolphin ball-carrier was touched by no other player before fumbling. Anyway, it all added up to a 37-35 win for Miami, so hooray for that!Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-69823732246537355172014-12-22T14:53:40.742-05:002014-12-22T14:53:40.742-05:00Yeah I'm not sure how I feel.

The Dolphins struggled this year down the stretch and seemed lost about how to make defensive adjustments when suddenly they had the worst run defense in the history of the NFL. But the GM did a good job with putting together a serviceable offensive line, etc after such a horrible one last year. <br /><br />What frustrates me is that the Dolphins are so irrelevant when I went to watch highlights last night there was no game wrap up for their game against Minnesota.

Miami was 1-1 against both New England and Buffalo, and it won the first game against New York. The owner announced yesterday--after a great come-from-behind, fall-from-ahead, come-from-behind win over Minnesota--that the coach, Joe Philbin, and general manager, Dennis Hickey, will return.
