Ray Lewis isn't playing.

But hopefully they pan to his intense, preachy, obnoxious face after every defensive snap.

He's soooo compelling!

Well we could have have just lost to Dolphins....

Like the Giants and Ravens lost to the Seahawks or the Saints to the Rams.

I'm just glad we won, a W is a W.

Dolphins have been playing well. 3 in a row, the last one they lost was to New York, when Victor Cruz made that ridiculous catch at the end of the game. But they pushed the Giants to the limit too, and they weren't playing nearly as well then as they are now.

Yep, it was a huge win..glad we got the W instead of the L

Game sucked except for the last offensive and defensive possession for us, those last two kinda made up for it for me.

The game before the Giants, Tebow got them in the final seconds. I was impressed with Miami. They have a tough defense. They are going to win a lot more games this year.

Yup. They've lost alot of games like this. Lost to Cleveland last seconds as well. They could easily be the team that is 7-4 right now.

I agree with the recent sentiment.

If you also take into consideration that Nolan is probably one of the best DC's in the league, and that there may not be a coach in the league that knows more about this team, and Romo specifically, than Tony Sparano.

I'm just so frustrated with how little an impact Ware can have in a game, mostly because he really has no pass rushing help. And how Rob Ryans defenses are so bland, and easily exposed.

I was expecting a lot of new looks, a lot of 4-6 looks, that Ameoba defense with 2 down lineman and everyone walking around pre-snap, etc etc etc.

Instead we just seem to line straight up, rush three, and play soft coverage all game long.

We're letting a lot of mediocre quarterbacks look really, really good against us.

I mean, I've only seen Miami play one game this year -- this one. And it looked to me like Miami doesn't need to draft a QB in the first next year.

Strike that - I saw the final minutes of the Miami/Giants game, and the Giants defense made Moore look inept.

Ryan’s Defense does a ton of different things. You have to go back and rewatch the game to notice them. Today some of the big plays were the corners not locating the ball in the air. Not making a play on the ball. No scheme is gonna fix that. But generally the big plays are because of busted coverages. I don’t think Ryan can do everything he wants without fear that the players will fuck up the assignment. Notice the smart player has to get everyone else lined up...Lee.

Ryan is not taking responsibility in this press conferences. He is a pretty honest guy. He takes the sword if it’s on him...he hasn’t the past two weeks. He blamed the players for fucking up the coverages.

No doubt the defense has a lot more work to do. Currently his defense is 7-4 and in first place.

There was a time when we would lose games like that. I like to think we've turned a corner. I still want Fat Rob gone. Imagine if we had Sparano, Bowles, and Nolan on this staff right now.

That fumble recovery was of no impact?

Drive never happens if not for Romo's brilliant move in pocket & poise finding 82.If you cant' appreciate Romo, you know NOTHING about QB's!

This defense is regressing as the year goes by instead of improving. Also Ball sucks donkey nuts and Newman has the best headlocks once he's beaten that I've ever seen.

I'm finally to the point where I wouldn't mind taking a CB in the first round now. That or another pass rusher to line up opposite Ware, but that's seeming to be as elusive as finding that replacement for Haley in the mid to late '90's.
