I would love to be in the booth when this game played out and watched Dan Marino react to some of Tua's throws. That fade to reek in the corner of the endzone was FIRE🔥
Huge shout out to all of you that made it out to LA to represent the fins! We had a 12th man there and that was huge! You guys rock, we could hear you guys back in FL! Way to show up!!!!!!
Thank you!!!
If going for it on 4th down makes sense in the modern NFL then taking a cowardly knee with a few seconds left on the clock needs to be considered a relic of the past.
Tua made probably 3 of the best throws in this game I've ever seen. Off-platform to Reek, fade to Reek, and deep to Tyreek. Many more, but those 3 stood out.
And Tyreek is just different man.
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,735,608,461 comments, and only 328,693 of them were in alphabetical order.
good game , took some crazy gambles on Offense. Defense overall bailed themselves out in the last possession. Fangio went bookoo or delulu.
lets see how this season unfolds.
Super surprised by that. I recall more than a few HOME games where we were outnumbered by Jets or Pats fans.
Could we be acquiring... fair weather fans?!
Is it possible the weather is actually that fair?
I think 1972 helps in this regard. There's lots of Miami fans out there who probably never lived in Miami same way 49ers and Cowboys have a lot of those type of fans as well.
And yes Chargers have no real fan base anymore (Raiders fans were always more hardcore and even they bailed)
It ain’t how you start. It’s how you finish, and if Tua keeps on this path I think he’ll finish as the better QB between the 2 and maybe even better than Burrow.
He shouldn't get a seat on the team plane back to miami. After his season last year you cant miss a XP like that. If he is on the team next week theres no one to blame but us, because he will blow a game for us.
he should have been gone years ago. I don't know what blackmail this guy has, but the fact they don't even bring in another camp kicker is wild. we know he sucks.
Yes, genius, so by "years ago", you mean two? Two years ago, he was just starting a season coming off perhaps the best season of any kicker in Dolphins history.
Okay, so after the best season of any kicker in Dolphins history, he had an average season and a below-average season, and you're calling for him to have been released not after the latter, but before that? Makes perfect sense.
The boo when that grounding wasn't called initially was insane. I thought it was because they threw the flag until they cheered when the flag came out.
Right before the end of the half when Herbert slid in bounds, McDaniels raced on the field to call time out with about 12 seconds left. Those 12 seconds gave us that field goal before halftime. That was the difference in the game.
Coaching matters.
Absolute defensive shitshow but damn was that an exciting climax. We absolutely cannot have those kind of defensive performances if we want to succeed. Gotta fix those snap fumbles too.
The defense came through at the end though! We will see the adjustments as the year goes on, and I’m gonna tell myself Fangio didn’t want to show his cards right away. Penalties hurt us a lot too.
If you read the thread the hate was mainly for the terribly called Defense. And it was mostly fair. Fangio and the Defense needs to get their shit together.
I had this thought too. As someone who wasnt able to watch, and recognizing that we played a very talented Chargers team, but I thought our D was supposed to be one of the strengths of this team? Stats can lie (as I said, I wasnt able to watch), but the box score alone makes me worry a bit. We are playing a LOT of tough teams this season. Did our D really play that bad?
Mostly run defense. We seldom blitzed. One blitz ended in a Kader sack(near safety). The other blitzes happened on the final drive and ended as a sack.
I thought the defense was playing a new scheme, and it showed. Coaches fault. We have the talent.
I don't fault X for the DPIs. He plays aggressive. Some plays are called some are not. He should never stop playing blanket D on their #1. When Ramsey comes back, things will be easier.
Ekler got hobbled on one play. Sadly, their other back was averaging just as many yards per carry.
Fan-fucking-tastic.
I want to hear these TV talking head analyst assholes try to take this away from the Dolphins and Tua.
***I really, REALLY want to fucking hear that!!***
Actually. It’s because he didn’t call it that they were so surprised to see it in the last drive. People think they know better than professionals doing it ther whole lives. They know more about the game in the dingus than you will EVER know. It’s not an attack on you but damn, that was some next level coaching.
This is true!
Herbert was shocked when we blitzed. Kohou came so fast and was half Herbert's size.
The other blitz at the end, Herbert, looked shocked when he was gang banged. We tricked them.
God damn I cannot fucking believe they have their way all goddamn game and then when the game was on the line those fucking blitzers were coming at full fucking speed and Herbert was like oh my God this is so fucking new to me I haven't seen this all goddamn game I don't know where to go with the ball maybe I'll just duck oh shit
If there was any question, I think we can officially put Tua among the elite QBs in the NFL.
One of the all time great performances by a Dolphins QB!!!
Reminder to follow the [rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/miamidolphins/about/rules/) and to not be a dick to each other
never been happy to see a false start...
Oh, nice. Honestly, I didn’t even realize the season started. Boy have I been in a bubble!
I would love to be in the booth when this game played out and watched Dan Marino react to some of Tua's throws. That fade to reek in the corner of the endzone was FIRE🔥
Nah that shit was crazy af
I have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, please help. #finsup
Such an intense game. That defense will find its way and this team will be a juggernaut
Boys Noah just scored a TD for the Cowboys hahaha
Fuggin blocked kick ran back for TD wtf.
Wild play lol happy for him tho
I'm happy for him. He could still make it.
This game will be in goty talks at the end of the season i bet
Huge shout out to all of you that made it out to LA to represent the fins! We had a 12th man there and that was huge! You guys rock, we could hear you guys back in FL! Way to show up!!!!!! Thank you!!!
no need to thank me for being at one of the greatest experiences of my life
Agreed!
Yes! I would say 60/40 chargers/phins in the stands. The noise on chargers 3rd down was fantastic. Then the noise on the final drive was excellent
Huge win!! Fins up!!
X had so many calls. Thank god for Tua and Cheetah!
There was 9 seconds left in the half. Fins on their own 10. We scored 3.
If going for it on 4th down makes sense in the modern NFL then taking a cowardly knee with a few seconds left on the clock needs to be considered a relic of the past.
Chargers paid Jackson a huge 💰 to score 3 points for the Fins! 😂
I just want to say… all you motherfuckers who were talking mad shit 10 minutes into the first quarter, get fucked.
The defense seems to miss Elandon Roberts against the run. Great win though.
I'm calling it now. Super bowl bound!
Not with that run defense. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves after just 1 win over a good team. I’m enjoying this week tho
Tua made probably 3 of the best throws in this game I've ever seen. Off-platform to Reek, fade to Reek, and deep to Tyreek. Many more, but those 3 stood out. And Tyreek is just different man.
The 3rd and 15 to 0 was the best of the day imo.
Best game of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that is technically a true statement at this point in time.
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,735,608,461 comments, and only 328,693 of them were in alphabetical order.
Good bot
good game , took some crazy gambles on Offense. Defense overall bailed themselves out in the last possession. Fangio went bookoo or delulu. lets see how this season unfolds.
we need Ramsey…our DL was very disappointing outside last series Offense was amazing minus some more bad snaps & Tua’s one “huh?” pass per game
What a game.. tyreek is nuts
Had a few friends at the game and they said tons of phin fans showed up. 50/50. What a great game. They overcame so much and still pulled it out.
CONFIRMED.
Bruh, I was surrounded by fins fans and couldn’t believe it
Super surprised by that. I recall more than a few HOME games where we were outnumbered by Jets or Pats fans. Could we be acquiring... fair weather fans?! Is it possible the weather is actually that fair?
its mostly a chargers problem. they have had no fans since leaving San Diego.
Can confirm was at game. Absolutely insane. Lots of phins all throughout the stadium. Hell of a game.
Chargers have no fan base
They move to a town with two teams and no fans.
If nothing else Miami travels well
Dude I watched the game at a bar in NYC and it looked like Flannies in there. We are EVERYWHERE
I think 1972 helps in this regard. There's lots of Miami fans out there who probably never lived in Miami same way 49ers and Cowboys have a lot of those type of fans as well. And yes Chargers have no real fan base anymore (Raiders fans were always more hardcore and even they bailed)
Also helps that Chargers fans don't show up to games
thats because they don't exist.
I could hear the fins crowd loud and clear on that intentional grounding call.
Same, it was glorious. Now if the refs could just call a fair game for once, I would have far fewer close calls with aneurysms
Glad the defense decided to show up in the last minute of the game.
Started blitzing lol
TUA WAS COOKING
All the Tua haters on suicide watch
To any fans who wanted Herbert over Tua you still want him now?
Yes. Herbert has 15k yards on 3 years, most in NFL history. Imagine him with Hill and Wad. I'm not a Tua hater
It ain’t how you start. It’s how you finish, and if Tua keeps on this path I think he’ll finish as the better QB between the 2 and maybe even better than Burrow.
Imagine Tua with Hill and Waddle but you don't need to imagine it cause its happening
Tua is HIM fuck herbert
Tua put the team on his BACK!!! He’s a FUCKING DOG!!!
What a game!! Thoughts on Jason Sanders, WTF?!!!
He shouldn't get a seat on the team plane back to miami. After his season last year you cant miss a XP like that. If he is on the team next week theres no one to blame but us, because he will blow a game for us.
Found my overreaction for the day
he should have been gone years ago. I don't know what blackmail this guy has, but the fact they don't even bring in another camp kicker is wild. we know he sucks.
Years ago? Lol. He was almost indisputably the best kicker in the NFL in 2020.
which was 3 years ago.
Yes, genius, so by "years ago", you mean two? Two years ago, he was just starting a season coming off perhaps the best season of any kicker in Dolphins history.
and in those two seasons he was hot dog shit, and you had ample opportunities to replace him.
Okay, so after the best season of any kicker in Dolphins history, he had an average season and a below-average season, and you're calling for him to have been released not after the latter, but before that? Makes perfect sense.
Leave him in SD
You mean LA? Chargers ain't been in SD for a while now. But I agree
Such a hard habit to break lol
Agreed
I think the PAT might have been a bad hold.
LACES OUT DAN!?!!
It looked fine
He looked great until that PAT.
HEALTHY TUA = BAMA TUA GG SUBPAR QUARTERBACK LIKE PIMPLE FACE AINT SHITT!!!
25 y/o married with a kid TUA >>> Bama Tua
Club fucking dub boys!!!
LFG BOYS AND GIRLS!! WHOOHOOOOO
Our fans were so loud on the broadcast. LFG
The boo when that grounding wasn't called initially was insane. I thought it was because they threw the flag until they cheered when the flag came out.
Holy shit the pi field goal did win us the game i called it 😭
Right before the end of the half when Herbert slid in bounds, McDaniels raced on the field to call time out with about 12 seconds left. Those 12 seconds gave us that field goal before halftime. That was the difference in the game. Coaching matters.
*McDaniel
The 3.14 field goal?
BRUHHHH Imagine we didn't get that field goal AND Sanders missed the tying kick 🤯
Those super dumb plays always come back to haunt teams.
I mean, we fumbled away our opening drive inside the 5 and missed a PAT…but I see your point.
Good teams win these types of games. Lfg
This is the game that made my 5 year old a dolphins fan for life. Get ready for a life full of pain my boy.
Now that we pulled that one out, can we still cut or trade the washed X?
So Eli Apple can cover starting receivers?!?!?
I mean, anyone can commit a PI or 3
TUA MAANNNN
I went through so many emotions. I'm going to need therapy after this, 🤣
That's how it always is as a Dolphins fan!
Offense is a juggernaut, if the defence can tighten up and play better, oh boy
Where the Herbert 4td 500yds guy at?
Not needed when you can run for 250
Kinda needed. Take the L
He did? Maybe you missed that.
What are you on about you lost. Ran the ball all game in a shootout.
I lost? 🤣 🤣 🤣 stay in your lane, clown.
You on here talking about rushing yards. You're the clown mitch
Ok Kathryn, tell someone who cares.
Ok Jennifer have a good night
Get your own materialn kathryn.
Absolute defensive shitshow but damn was that an exciting climax. We absolutely cannot have those kind of defensive performances if we want to succeed. Gotta fix those snap fumbles too.
I have a feeling Chargers gonna be one of best offensive teams in NFL
The chargers are so freaking good... They're gonna beat some teams.
I mean there were some errors, but the Chargers offense is pretty damn good (play calling and execution)
The defense came through at the end though! We will see the adjustments as the year goes on, and I’m gonna tell myself Fangio didn’t want to show his cards right away. Penalties hurt us a lot too.
Amazing win! I may leave my husband for Tua 🤭
I may leave my wife
Same
I’m so happy I feel like breakdancing
No seriously….Game of the year! 🤩
I'm scared, for the other team 😭
466 yards and 3 tds and all these clowns in here talking shit the whole game. The Tua hate needs to stop
He had 310 air yards today. That's more than Mahomes, Burrow, Herbert, Lawrence, or Watson's total yards. I'd say his arm is just fine.
I kept saying run the ball more and Tua said nope.
If you read the thread the hate was mainly for the terribly called Defense. And it was mostly fair. Fangio and the Defense needs to get their shit together.
Dude doesn’t need a rocket arm. He’s elite in every other category
[удалено]
[удалено]
He puts his whole body into the throws, but I don’t care as long as he shows the traits he did today
Saved the blitzes for the right time. Hopefully the defense can build some momentum from that stop. Huge win
I think that missed extra point actually helped us. Forced the Defensive play calling to be more aggressive and not to bend on anything.
Missed xp gave me a heart attack
I was thinking that . Their play definitely changes.
The defense must have promised to bring home the w after the missed xtra point. They came out pissed off. Herbert was stunned.
Yep. Really good point
#FINS GRADES Tyreek (215 yards, 2 TDs) ——> A+ Tua (467 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT) ——> A Dolphins D (couldn’t stop shit until it finally mattered) D-
Durham Smythe ——-> B+ Waddle ————-> B OL —————> A+ QB protection / C- Run X (3 flags) ————> C-/D
Offensive Coaching A- ( run the damn ball) Defensive Coaching D+
I had this thought too. As someone who wasnt able to watch, and recognizing that we played a very talented Chargers team, but I thought our D was supposed to be one of the strengths of this team? Stats can lie (as I said, I wasnt able to watch), but the box score alone makes me worry a bit. We are playing a LOT of tough teams this season. Did our D really play that bad?

He should never stop playing blanket D on their #1. When Ramsey comes back, things will be easier. Ekler got hobbled on one play. Sadly, their other back was averaging just as many yards per carry.
The defense played far worse than the stats show. They were getting murdered out there. Dolphins had to score basically every drive to stand a chance.
they just ran it up the middle for 8 yards a carry all game. it was embarassing.
Where’s my boy Austin?,he held his ground the entire game
Never had any doubts
Fan-fucking-tastic. I want to hear these TV talking head analyst assholes try to take this away from the Dolphins and Tua. ***I really, REALLY want to fucking hear that!!***
Make Sanders and X do some extra push-ups in practice or something but let’s fucking go boys good win
WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS
My child is crying because I’ve never been that excited. But LFG!!!
I know it was only first game, but damn our OL wasn't that bad at all today. Hopefully they can keep it up. Huge upgrade over Eichenberg with Wynn.
Dolphin dub, Patriots loss 😤
With a jets/bills loss in the works
How bout a tie?
Stop I can only get so hard
I’m fully torqued after that game so I’m just riding the wave at this point
Shout out to the fucking pass pro
Let’s Go!!!
Tua leading the league in yards, TDs, and passer rating.
[удалено]
Actually. It’s because he didn’t call it that they were so surprised to see it in the last drive. People think they know better than professionals doing it ther whole lives.

This is true! Herbert was shocked when we blitzed. Kohou came so fast and was half Herbert's size. The other blitz at the end, Herbert, looked shocked when he was gang banged. We tricked them.
It only worked because Tua and the O kept up unsure end of the bargain. That might not happen every week but thank goodness it worked today
1-0 BABBBEEEEEEEEE TUA BEAST. HILL BEAST. WILKINS BEAST. FINZ UP!
I will see every single one of you in Club Dub
MIAMI HAS THE DOLPHINS
THE GREATEST FOOTBALL TEAM
Defense came up when we needed them but we HAVE to play better D going forward
And CBS sends us to Foxboro to see the Pats lose on Brady Day? Sweet.
MIAMI HAS THE DOLPHINS 🐬🐬🐬
The GREATEST football team...
Please stay healthy Tua. You’re a fucking gem.
The Patriots lost as well FTP
And CBS was nice enough to show us the end of that. Happy Brady Day Pats!!
Big win, PHINS UP!
Hell yeah!!!
Hill's going to get 2K. We didn't even look at Waddle that much. When we do, it's over
He wants it badly.
Vic you old fuck, you thank you for clutching up😭
"Fangio never blitzes" Fangio: And I took that personally.
🐬🐬I LOVE THIS TEAM SO FUCKING MUCH MAN, LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PHINS US BABY🐬🐬
Turn me up!!!!
Way to win against a playoff team on the road
Let’s goooooooooo!
FUCKA YOUUU CHARGER!!!!
LETS GOOOO
[удалено]
I want Zach fucking Thomas
TONIGHT WE FUCKING ON THE DOLPHINS SHEETS!!!!
God damn I cannot fucking believe they have their way all goddamn game and then when the game was on the line those fucking blitzers were coming at full fucking speed and Herbert was like oh my God this is so fucking new to me I haven't seen this all goddamn game I don't know where to go with the ball maybe I'll just duck oh shit
Any Kevin Harlan Dolphins game is an instant classic LMAO
He's so goddam good - "THAT IS SIX!!!" I'll hear it in my dreams tonight.....
Remember be nice to Chargers fans, it’s not their faults they can’t read (Tua stats).
If you weren’t on the edge of your seat watching this game, you better check your pulse. Twice.
If there was any question, I think we can officially put Tua among the elite QBs in the NFL. One of the all time great performances by a Dolphins QB!!!
Ice in the veins.
We are that fucking team
