I was watching this real-time and had the same thoughts. RUN FOWARD!!

[@dadarkknight36310]

He was thinking getting out of bounds that why

[@immanuelfadairo3201]

why is achane catching the ball 7 yards behind the line of scrimmage on 3rd and SHORT with no timeouts in the 4th? Tua's gonna get all the blame and hate but this ones on McDaniel and Fangio. Dolphins went up and the defensive playcalling got insanely passive. Not even gonna mention the poor use of timeouts

[@bjbatt7505]

I’m pretty sure it’s a design play look at the receiver started to block before the check down

[@gdee3918]

@@bjbatt7505that’s what he means. Why is McDaniel designing such an awful play at that point. And why is Vic Fangio playing that tired preventative defense of allowing 20 yard catches at a time as long as they don’t allow a long TD pass

[@bjbatt7505]

@@gdee3918 I agree. I just hate when everyone blame it on TUA. Only the people on the field know the play design and you can’t win a game when the defense fell apart 4min mark with a lead.

[@ravennelson5547]

The reason we lost is that we continue to pass the ball when our RBs avg. 6+ypc. 2 downs to get 3yds and we want to pass. I just don’t understand

[@cliffhooper3558]

Hated that. Especially when we were goal to go late. That DT smack Tua on a slide. It's 2nd down, put it on the OL, backups and all, smack em in the mouth. We played soft and lost as such. I wanna be healthy in playoffs more than get a bye but im thinking we need to just play on kill here out.

[@corners3755]

And its always some dome wr screen or bubble screen or rb screen behind the line of scrimmage that takes a long time to form on 3rd and short. Same thing happened in the kc game with Hill. It shouldn't have been a fumble but it was a crap play call again.

[@cliffhooper3558]

@@corners3755 he's trying to spread out the defense to soften up the middle because our entire OL is hurt and our backups aren't great. I don't like those plays either, not to Hill, was hoping Claypool would fill that EZ spot n being running those. Either way should've run the ball more. I get it's we run off gimmick but they never stopped us once. Run til failure.

Achane cannot be blamed for this Miami loss !! He's an outstanding player and on 3rd down why is he being thrown the ball 7 yrds behind the line of scrimmage ? Bad play calling , not bad ball playing is the cause of the loss !!

Good Afternoon Tua Just Chokes In Big Moments

[@whiplash1973]

The best way to soften a Dolphin loss for me is to bet against them. Unfortuantly, it paid off last night. Thanks hard rock bet app! If there is going to be a loss then at least I get something out of it.

[@bonecold4387]

Azeez (#2) comes off the block to play the inside and Autry (#96) is collapsing in as well. Even if he runs forward it's not guaranteed that he gets the first and Dolphins have no timeouts so at best he gets 5 yards and the time continues to run down. His thoughts were to get out of bounds. If it was a wide open hole for long yardage upfield than yeah but it only appears like that for about a second. He would've gotten tackled or at least grabbed and slown down almost immediately while being inbounds with no timeouts left.

[@lazarsepticpie2292]

He quick enough to get small and run through them hes done it b4

[@C_Ase_Ce]

That's why you don't run a screen with 49 seconds left and no timeouts. You're wasting too much time and you gotta now go 9 yards instead of just 3. And if it gets blown up the way it has been all season you now gotta get 9 yards on 4th instead of 3 assuming you don't gain any on this 3rd. It's idiotic play calling at its best in the worst situations. Those are logic and commen sence things that a play caller has to be thinking about.

[@halcon1017]

Between Azeez (2) and Autry (96) they would have doubled tackled him down, odds are before the sticks. He tried the route that would avoid both, while also stopping the clock. He just misjudged how fast Autry got to him, and did pushed him out. A split second dilemma, no option gave any guarantiees of success.

[@MCLottotv]

Ive been pissed off with Miami coaching staff ever since they refused to kick the extra field goal against Denver

[@leaumaalefosio4323]

Exactly! That pretty much summarizes their entire season. They don’t have it in them to go for it, period!!!! It’s NOW or never!!!

[@ckobo84]

#96 was bearing down on him, not sure if he would have got the first down going straight ahead. He's a pretty darn good runner, he seems to know what he's doing.

[@scottyjohnson5282]

The defensive player had inside leverage on the blocker and he was cutting outside to try and get those three yards.

[@xprozombieslayer]

Was just watching the score and was pleasantly surprised that titans were keeping up then miami got 17 points in the 4th wasn't surprised. I check at the end and am just shocked I gotta watch the highlights for this 😂😮

[@Scrap-dog8181]

Don't blame this on Achane, this is a coaching issue. If the coaching was better they would have run the clock out to begin with and he wouldn't be in this position. Coach McD you gotta do better.

[@briantimko3225]

we was not gonna get that first down going straight from what I see.

[@ryansullivan3955]

TE was open on the 5 yd out route on 4th down. WTF GUYS!!

[@Balsohard806]

Bruh 96 was gonna kill him if he ran straight. 😂

[@ravennelson5547]

It’s the play call on that. No timeouts. You need the yards first! Should’ve been 2 plays called on 3rd down. Since either way you need a first to sole the ball. Defense is playing pass. We would’ve gotten that first down. This loss is on the coaches period! Not one blitz called on both of those TD drives. Also when are we going to deploy Claypool at TE. With a LB or S covering him it’s a win win for us. We can run since they light in the box or we hit him the mismatch. Cmon Mike let’s get the next four wins and No. 1 seed. Phins up

[@kylethornton4012]

I won my fantasy matchup by .82 points and my opp had Achane so him doing this probably saved me.

[@victornewman508]

I was thinking the same, go straight up and get the first down, then spike the ball.. definitely made a mistake there

[@oldwolf590]

Nope..defender had inside leverage off the blocker and Autry was bearing down on him. He would have lost yards. He did the right thing by trying to get out of bounds

[@mathejoh]

There was certainly something "off" about yesterdays game. Hate to be a conspiracy theorist here but it has the "Russ Wilson-Super Bowl-screwup" vibe to it. Miami was heavily favored to win in the betting world but it turns out the far inferior Titans somehow won... ALso I noticed that Achane was only used 7 to 8 times the whole game and he was averaging about 7 ypc compared to Mostert who had 21+ carries and an average of 4 ypc. It was as if Mike McDaniel wanted to lose the game..... 🤨 Someone very important, won a lot of money in the betting world yesterday...

[@macarthurdeters1278]

A decade or so ago I used to try and reason/rationalize why teams did this or that but I finally just stopped lying to myself. It's scripted. The last straw for me was the Super Bowl where the Falcons blew a 28-3 lead. Not just b/c they blew it but how it played out as well. Watch games closely and you'll see some bizarre stuff. Guys falling down for no reason, horrible arm tackling, blown coverages, etc. Oh and for this game, Frank Wycheck died a few days before this game. It all starts to make sense when you see it but it's also very difficult to let go of something that is such a big part of our lives. Nothing wrong w being a conspiracy theorist either. It's just a derogatory term for people who question and research.

[@562fooo7]

the real question is why are they loosing by 1 when they were up 14 a few minutes ago

[@flaking305]

Several things was wrong with this game. The whole Tyreek pre motion, if it's that important why not teach Berrios it, since that's what makes the whole offense go. I also they normally rotate between Achane and Mostert each series, this felt more like they were focused on getting Mostert a record instead of playing the game. I also noticed a lack of screens or Tua finding players late. This probably had to do with him alway having to move the pocket all game

[@AlfredoEClark]

I don't really watch a lot of Dolphins' games, as I follow a winning football team, but for those who do follow Miami, I have a question. I can't recall watching a QB trip over himself and fall down as much as Tua does, so I wonder if that's something that happens often. Like, does he lack coordination when moving in the pocket or something?

[@idawg7332]

As a dolphins fan it has happened several times now. Unfortunately I think he may be afraid of getting hurt and it messes with his decision making he also doesn’t really scramble. It’s especially bad when our oline is hurt like tonight

[@pignoob9551]

We have a winning record....

[@idawg7332]

@@pignoob9551 Against losing teams, can't deny it anymore. This team isn't built for a deep run, playcalling gets too cute, oline is banged up, tua needs a clean pocket to make stuff happen, they rely too much on throwing to hill even though we have plenty of great weapons, snaps keep getting fumbled, and time management is very bad. Best case scenario is we beat the jets, lose the next 3 games, bills have a massive collapse, we win the division and we lose in the wildcard round

I was at the game and when the Titans went for the 2 point conversion and got it I told my son we were going to lose...Titans figured Miami out .. I've been a Dolphin fan for 35 years and I've never seen such horrible play calling on bothsides of the ball to win a game....Tua played horrible yet again in prime time.. McNerds play calling and his clock management is atrocious when it matters he shrinks in moments.. why does he call these pass plays 5 yards behind the line of scrimmage when we need 3 yards he do it all the time....we don't have a 2 minute offense or sense of urgency whatsoever in 2min situations.....what an embarrassing collapse!

[@DrummerDanny76]

The Dolphins came in taking the Titans lightly. They thought they had an easy win. You gotta earn it.

[@pdb2k154]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who saw that 🙄

[@C_Ase_Ce]

This is also why you dont wait so long to get the call in. Having to use timeouts because you cant get the call in time and do all the motions is what causes these kinda things to happen. With even 1 TO i font think Achane would've ran towards out of bounds and picks up the 1st and then you have 40 seconds as well as you dint gotta spike the ball so a down isnt waisted. McDaniel's play calling has cost us several times this season.

[@coreybunss]

Dude, I don’t know what you were watching, but you can clearly see his lead blocker was not gonna be able to hold that block so he ran behind his player. He was never going to get that first down.

[@JeanJoseph25]

[@rawconscious3461]

It’s all Rigged Lady’s and Gentlemen

[@joshuagrace3548]

Achane’s not a back that runs through the three defenders that were closing on him should he have run straight. There is nothing in his history that would suggest that either. The end result would have been the same, so he made an attempt to stop the clock. Better question would be why the play call to begin with, and then why were there at least 3 defenders who were not blocked in the slightest.

[@demetriusstoveall5955]

He prolly was thinking get out

[@cliffhooper3558]

Someone pls explain the defense delay of game on a shift. Dont get me wrong we played soft and lost as such but i never in my life seen a DL shift a penalty. Someone pls, im losing my mind on that call.

[@ZenOfMKVLI]

Just like Mahomes never saw an Offense Offsides penalty? Lol

[@cliffhooper3558]

@@ZenOfMKVLI no, that was blatant. Im saying id appreciate film or written rule. The game has changed but my understanding is the defense has to prohibit the snap to delay the game. hold a player down on tackle or literally smack the ball out the Centers hand. No limit on defense shift. I watched the Eagles this year offside on offense for the push.. just last night the guard got called.. finally. Same penalty as Chiefs game. It's been a problem. never seen illegal defensive shift bro. Appreciate some clarity

[@UrbanLegend321]

OK! There were a lot of bad calls and missed calls by the officials, but that doesn't explain a 14 point lead collapsing with 4 minutes left in regulation against a rookie QB with an O-line that has as many issues as ours. And who knew the Titans had such a fierce pass rush? Certainly not the 8 teams that pasted a loss on that team's forehead! Nope, the Fins can't claim #1 seed and playoff bye if they are as suspect as they appeared to be last night! The Dolphins have melted down in December before, and this looks to be the start of another disappointing December for Fins fans! We have Dallas and Baltimore not to mention Buffalo upcoming, and this fan is not even sure this team can put an L on the Jets! We saw that the team is less than ordinary sans Tyreek! We saw that we have a center snapping the ball that should've been traded after his first missed snap in game one against the Chargers! Miami fans need to keep their white hankies handy, they'll be lots of tears ahead if McDaniels doesn't make some changes fast!

[@davidwilliams6489]

It absolutely looks like they wanted to lose this game🤫

[@JB-ty8mv]

That set of downs after the Titan scored the 2 points were terrible. 1st and 2nd down runs straight up the middle into the heart of the defense for a total of maybe 3 yards. Both receivers covered on 3rd down. The defense gave up 14 points in under 3 minutes, not Tua. He threw a perfect pass to the back down the side and because the back played bump down the field with the receive he was late the ball that would have been a touchdown strike. Oh, and then there was the self inflicted dumb Chubb play to give up 7 points because his feelings or pride was hurt.
