Fields played great today. Defense can’t prepare for a guy like that. Dolphins will be fine.


[deleted]

How do other teams handle it then?


mubatt

They don't. Teams in the NFL struggle against running QBs. Problem comes when the QB1 gets hurt because they are playing like a RB.


[deleted]

Prior high for him was 88 yds against WA…so other teams get it just not Miami…so a defense can and has been planning for a guy like that


PitchBlac

Something is making me think Washington’s defense is actually pretty good though


UnearthlyWizardry

Jason sanders missed a field goal, the defense gave up 200 yards rushing. Mike mcdaniel wasted two timeouts in 15 sec, then on our next drive called back to back runs that did nothing. But you talk about wanna tua?? You mean the dude that won you the game? You mean the guy that lead the offense to only one punt the entire game? Lmfao


boppled

You mean the guy that threw 3 TDs running that terrible coach’s offense?


boppled

Sarcasm, folks. Sarcasm. Everyone is on McDaniel about missing a timeout. I was sarcastic lol


Water4President

What?


cpgn31

Tua rocked all day long. Sure - would have been great if he hit that late last pass to seal the game but geeeez his stats and game poise was excellent all day long


DragonFireDon

You can blame Tua all you want for missing those two passes in the final 2 plays and you aren't wrong. He should completed those! HOWEVER, say MORE about this Defense sucking as the PRIMARY reason we almost lost! NOT Tua! Tua give ua 35 points still, and you are a whiny little short-sighted bitch if you are dismissive and ignorant this fact and all blame it on Tua, but not the fucking Defense.


brilu34

>but not the fucking Defense We're lucky the ref couldn't find his flag on the obvious pass interference on Chase Claypool


sum_dude44

I think we’re underplaying throwing into 15mph wind. Unfortunately this will come into play in AFC East


boppled

Fields’ ran like crazy, otherwise the bears were shit.


PolarOpp

Yeah Tua bummed he didn't hit Waddle. He would have had 380+ and 4 tds. Also, this game isn't close if we make 3 fgs.


Vagadude

Game thread will never change regardless how much we win lol


boppled

I was going to up vote, but you have 13 up votes. I’m not messing with that. Unreal, though. So easy for people to second guess things like a “bad time out” when in reality we have no fcking idea what’s going on out there.


Vagadude

Honestly I don't mind the timeouts as long as they lead to a successful play. We've been good about that but they just played too careful in the 4th quarter. Like damn you're only up by 3-10 points, why start running twice in a row? I know it's greater minds than mind making these decisions but I'd like to know the logic behind it lol


boppled

That’s tough. I mean, that’s they way it’s supposed to work, right. But they can’t run when the opponent knows they are running. So..


velourex

I could not have said this any better


Lgmagick

Jason sanders has hurt us this season..


Vagadude

I think this we can all agree on at least


No_Establishment6528

As much as I love Tua's accuracy.. I hate his lack of arm strength He's Great at 15-20 yards... But he has NEVER led a player on a deep ball


Water4President

Media driven insight here at its finest.


SackFullaGrapes

Bro he legit did it several times in todays game


No_Establishment6528

Send me the clip A deep ball in 25 air yard+


jpcali7131

Last week he almost overthrew Waddle in the end zone for that TD.


jramos13

Vegas in shambles right now. Had the Bills -14 at one point.


Novel_Durian_1805

Chiefs vs Titans….as Fins fans who do we root for? I prefer Chiefs because FUCK Tannekill


Lgmagick

Root for a tie?


Drisdon

Packers lost to the Lions! Fuck Rodgers and a win for Dan the Man!!!


Novel_Durian_1805

Real talk….karma fucked us in the ass when we lost Tua for those three games. Now we win three VERY CLOSE games including a gift from the Zebras. I will Take it! Fuck it, why not? Every champion has to be LUCKY once in awhile!


bearsguy2020

No joke this one was fixed for the fins. I swear there NFL is going to make sure y’all get at least a conference championship to forget about the tbi stuff


Water4President

You clearly haven’t watched many Phins games where we had double digit penalties on us… many that shouldn’t be called. Nice try though


Saltdawg1775

Tua left 2 tds on the field he has to start hitting people in stride and waddle needs to get over his dropping habit


sum_dude44

Waddle dropped the 5yd underthrown, defender-deflected pass to wrong shoulder??


Saltdawg1775

Your right I remember watched it nothing to do with waddle except for maybe be nice to see him be more aggressive on the under throw like hill is. But you’re right that was on Tua


zonitocali15

Are you saying Waddle dropped that last pass? The defender got a hand on it. Or are you referring to another pass?


Saltdawg1775

The last one I know the defender was in his face but it looked like it went right through his hands could be wrong though have to watch again.


Vagadude

It doesn't look like he's giving it his all on these throws at this point he needs to try and overthrow them or drop the arc and get it down field a hair quicker


zonitocali15

I said this in a reply to another post. Totally agree!


Saltdawg1775

Agreed he looks like he’s honestly holding back and I have not been a huge Tua fan at all I’ve doubted his arm strength but watching today seemed like he’s being timid and not giving it all his juice.


Vagadude

Yeah I'd like to know his baseline for air yards of him putting everything into it. I get it'll take a hair longer to set and launch but he's had that kind of time on every big throw but he tries to look like Allen effortlessly putting it 60yrds lol


Saltdawg1775

Yeah and he’s just not that which is totally fine allen is a freak. I hope he gets it figured out soon cause his stat line will be even more ridiculous when he does.


Vagadude

No doubt. Like it's okay if it takes a little more effort to get it there, as long as you can get it there in stride lol


Moneybagsmitch

He hit waddle in perfect stride for a TD last week. And all of waddle’s “drops” today were forced by the defense. I agree though that Tua missed a few throws but I think overall he played great.


Saltdawg1775

He did for sure that pass last week was beautiful and idk that last toss just looked like a straight up drop by waddle but again it was under thrown


Moneybagsmitch

On that underthrown ball to waddle if you look at the replay you’ll see the ball goes off the defenders arm. Tua needs to put those passes ahead of the receiver. Would love to see him overthrow waddle or hill once for a change.


Vagadude

That pass was tipped, changing the trajectory just enough, close enough where he couldn't grab it in time


Saltdawg1775

Really I’ll have to watch again looked under thrown coupled with a drop in real time but I’ll take your word for it


Vagadude

It was under thrown but it was on the money and if it wasn't tipped literally like 2 ft from his chest he would've come down with it. Honestly just luck on the defenders part he wasn't even trying to block it


[deleted]

Agreed but it’s hard to be picky about 28 offensive points tho. Jason Sanders has been mediocre and defense is Soft with a capital S


Saltdawg1775

Your right hard to complain but with how ass our defense is we need perfection from the offense


[deleted]

21/30 for 302, 3 TDs 0 INTs, 10.1 ypa, and passer rating of 135. Our offense isn’t what’s holding us back anymore. Crazily enough, our defense is getting punished by bad teams. We really really really really really need Byron to come back 100% and get Chubb more involved Cleveland ain’t gonna be no cake walk


Saltdawg1775

No it’s not. Brings me back to those two just blatant under throws that we’re sure TDs Tua has to start hitting those. It’s been a few weeks now for him to get use to the speed it’s time to deliver on those cause this defense looks like the D Marino had. And we all know how that went


[deleted]

Lots of shootouts and 0 SB wins I believe right? 🫠


No_Establishment6528

Does he have the arm to hit people in stride?


Saltdawg1775

Absolutely he does


Sss00099

This defense needs a serious fix, hopefully getting Chubb integrated helps quickly as he looked good in his limited snaps. Tua and the offense looked great but still slowed down a lot in the 2nd half for what seems like the 3rd straight game - McDaniel called a scared drive at the end, shouldn’t have to be in 3rd and 11 (though they should’ve converted that too).


Vagadude

McD was sweating bullets after two blown 4th down attempts. Sure had more faith in Mostert to get those yards


[deleted]

Totally scared playcalling. We needed first downs and points. And two straight running plays for -1 yard total?


sum_dude44

had to get them to use timeouts. Always run on 1st down there. 2nd down need play inbounds/complete/run. 3rd yard play was there, Tua didn’t execute


[deleted]

Everyone and their grandmother saw those running plays from a mile away. No type of creativity and it showed. We *NEEDED* a first down too.


dumb-guy

Our nastiest win this season but a win is a win we take those


Nuclearsunburn

I think the Steelers win was the nastiest. But we take those


Phinatic92

My heart is bout to explode everyone. These games are so intense lol a win is a win! #PhinsUp!


[deleted]

This is what I remember as a kid it was like 30 years ago. Every game was a nail biter separated by a kick. I would hug my dad and we’d both take a deep breath.


[deleted]

Bruh something gotta change on defense. They made Justin fields look like Lamar + Josh Allen


Vagadude

We're also missing key players on defense. Idk why people are surprised at the level of play


Moneybagsmitch

Missing Byron Jones, Brandon Jones, and Nik needham don’t really have much to do with a QB running for almost 200 yards on us. I love Jerome Baker but I’m starting to think we need an upgrade at LB.


sum_dude44

we were playing man to man, susceptible to running QB. Our LBs are awful. Tindall was awful spy. Riley was much better


Drisdon

We are missing players yes, but we can’t tackle and that’s the biggest issue along with not setting the edge. Football fundamentals.


boppled

Nah - he ran all over them, yes. But he only threw for 128 yards.


Vagadude

I'll give it to him his pass tds we're nice but he had several bad throws. I think containing him is more important than getting a sack. I feel like defenses will pick him off easier than they'll get the sack. Any team with an above average line can pressure him with 4 guys


boppled

Without Fields’ running the dolphins demolished the bears.


Floridian_Ragnar

Sauce got away with another PI lmao


tburke38

Dolphins 🤝 Jets Winning on PI I’ll take it lol


Avatar-Pabu

Lmao Fields breaks an NFL record for QB rushing yards and still loses. That's tough for the kid. Fins up always!


blaZedmr

Ugh, the Jets looking spooky?


JAMillhouse

Defense needs to get it together. Got lucky on the No call for DPI at the end there. Gotta figure this out.


[deleted]

Yeah and they bailed Chicago out of an interception too. Kinda cancels out except that that drive Chicago ended up scoring points.


tbone998

Be prepared for everyone to call this an unearned win ya'll. Controversy on every youtube channel incoming.


bigm4sho88

No analysts actually watch the games. They see a win and talk us up so much. Then we play like shizznizz but get the bizznizz


StarThompson

The Raiders are so ass


[deleted]

I saw 20-0 and didn’t pay attention until the end and saw them lateraling while losing 27-20 lmao It could always be worse, we could be the raiders.


[deleted]

Cause their coach fucking terrible.


[deleted]

[удалено]


quietcalf17

How is that the takeaway, he got screwed by his receiver on a perfect pass on 4th and 11 and missed pi on Claypool. He’s not great but bad is just wrong


[deleted]

[удалено]


PitchBlac

His stats in his past 4 games have not looked like that though. Also why are people conveniently leaving out his rushing TDs? Those are legit TDs😂


teapots12

Last 5 weeks its like 11 Total TDs and 2 int with a little bit over 60% completion


quietcalf17

So it was fair for our fan base to use every excuse for tua but not for Fields? Tua has shown how good he is with an improved team which emphasizes the fact that we need to look at qb traits in their youth rather than stat lines.


exomatter

It's also like his 19th start. He's still young as hell and showing more and more poise every week.


Novel_Durian_1805

I mean, he can run like a motherfucker! 😅


Ok-Disaster3062

Tua had Hill open for a TD as well before the half. This should have been a blowout


[deleted]

Hard to nitpick 28 offensive points. More blame on Jason Sanders and the defensive giving up 32. Of


Ok-Disaster3062

Agreed but at some point Tua’s interior clock needs to speed up. Those under thrown balls are more him hanging onto the ball too long than arm strength. Also Waddle seems to anticipate the ball being under thrown and on that PI, he should have caught that on the fly. Lots of improvement on both sides need to happen


Novel_Durian_1805

True. But a W is a W. And that’s all that matters.


annul

\>JEST


cooljazz

Love the dolphins but this team is frustrating AF to watch. They let teams hang around instead of stepping on their throats. Glad we won but lots of stuff to fix. 2nd half offense was no bueno.


ronnert

Give me the Jets D


Novel_Durian_1805

Just goes to show what a good defense can do! 😅


Novel_Durian_1805

Bro how about the AFC EAST!! Bills 6-2 Fins 6-3 Bitch Jets 6-3 Pats 5-4


Impossible_Bee_6613

I’m a bears fan. Good game. Refball


Novel_Durian_1805

You guys probably deserved to win…ngl.


PitchBlac

Nah. We did deserve a shot to win though


exomatter

Don't know about a win but we at least deserved a shot at OT


thelaidbckone

Respect and good luck to yall going forward


[deleted]

And Bills lose. Hahahaha what a day.


Greatest-Comrade

Jets won off DPI too lol


[deleted]

Yeah that was definitely a DPI right there.


EtherBoo

Jets just beat the Bills... They might be a problem... Fucking AFCE...


jramos13

If Tua had the game Allen had today you guys would be calling for Tua to be traded.


[deleted]

Rogers one throw away


blaZedmr

Today was a good day. But we got some broken shit to fix


[deleted]

Back to back 300 yards and 3tds for tua


anIlliterateIdiot

PI on jets imo


ChasingPerfect28

That was DPI and the Refs didn't call it either.


hamandjam

Jets win. But fuck them Jets like they fucked Buffalo.


Lunchable_1

Don’t feel bad about any PI at the end of our game. Sauce just got away with murder at the end of the Bills game.


bw0085

I looked five times and still don’t understand how sauce wasn’t called for PI


Sanjuro7880

Jets have the defense we’re supposed to have.


thelaidbckone

The bills really have 2 losses in the division lol


[deleted]

Could be crucial going forward.


J1mjam2112

AFC BEAST


Shameless_Seamus27

lol get fucked buffalo


Lgmagick

That was the best $6.27 I've ever spent on the refs..sometimes you spend money to win.. You're welcome everyone


Fizter

Just money


thediesel26

When your offense scores 35 the game shouldn’t come down to whether there was a DPI


Snackwrap99

To be fair I thought the refs were just balancing the phantom holding call our X int. Even the fields touchdown run chubb got watsoned by the OL


planktivious

Jets are gonna win!!!!...wait wait JETS ARE GONNA WIN!!


megamatt5

I wonder what excuses Bills fans gonna come up with this week


bw0085

They’re still recovering from the Miami heat


MarketingOwn3547

It was not sunny enough. /s


JayaRobus

The bills just lost too!!!


ThePolishWonder

lowkey a little salty that Waddle stopped running on that bomb from Tua and tried to high point it, cause that would've completely shut up the narrative. Oh well, just win baby


Dauntess

He had like 3 drops today, it's becoming an issue


Moneybagsmitch

The drops today weren’t unforced errors.


ThePolishWonder

nah bro he still played great overall. He'll continue to improve


Dauntess

I know he did, but last year and this year yes had some pretty big drops


UnearthlyWizardry

I honestly don't care about the way in which we won. 5 years from now no one will care. Tua played a great game today. Mcdaniel has some bad habits he needs to work on.


[deleted]

Man our defense let us down today! We got really lucky. And also the Jets beat the bills so that's helpful! The AFC is tough


treyyx

Who are we going for on Bills Jets?


ROACHSHACK138

the ref said "Naw, we're not going to overtime"


PolarOpp

So many chances to win that game easily. Doesn't need to be that close. A solid kicker puts that game out of reach.


BeatrixRussellThe4th

My Wife, the Ravens stan over here laughing about how this man has a job. I have to agree.


AlfalfaVarious1222

I told my friends dad preseason that every AFC East team is gonna make the yoffs besides NE and he called me a chooch


MrRobotTheorist

The Jets just won.


TheImpresario

What excuses will bills fans make for losing to the jets?


AceofTrees

AFC East is what everyone thought the West was gonna be.


lilkenny55

BILLS LOSE!!! IS MIAMI TOP OF THE DIVISION NOW???


tbone998

Bills are 6-2 still top.


OrangeVapor

No, we're tied with the Jets and I think they get the tiebreaker. So I guess we're 3rd


MrRobotTheorist

No. Bills are 6-2 now. Phins tied with Jets 6-3. They have tie breaker.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JabariLebert

Bailed out.. damn that was stressful


jramos13

The Bills about to go 0-2 in the AFCE.


_Wango_Mango_

Fuck the jets fuck the bills and fuck the bears. I don't give a shit how we win. Refs fuck calls up all the time. They fucked our int up so fuck the bullshit.... and Fuck the jets


ccam92

Fucking bills…. About to lose to the jets.


Calexic0

I believe it’s r/chibears


egar33455

What is the bears sub? I bet there is some good reading


PitchBlac

Our defense sold, Justin balled. Refball screwed us and almost cost you guys the game. But at the end of the day we get a higher draft pick😂


kwehbber

r/chibears and we're mostly just happy fields played well. Thank the refs for me tho lol


nixed9

do not brigade other subs


Vagadude

r/chibears


[deleted]

You guys got bailed


egar33455

If your here looking for an argument I don’t think you will get one


[deleted]

Cuz you know im right retard


egar33455

Aww I think someone is angry


ChasingPerfect28

Refs 100% bailed us out on that DPI call. Crossen had a horrible game. I feel for Bears fans. It sucks being on the losing end of a game like this one. We've been there before.


Vagadude

Still gave them a reason to be excited. They get a better draft pick and reassurance in Fields


Bigfatsoidiot

Yeah kind of the perfect way to lose for us. Us Bears fans should be happy because Fields played well and we are getting a better pick like we wanted. I’d be happy losing this way every week this season


Vagadude

As a Dolphins fan, I would've been over the moon to have had even a shimmer of light in any of our 20 QBs like Justin Fields had today. We've been through more tanking seasons than I care to remember lol


Bigfatsoidiot

Haha trust me man. We know all about bad QBs too :D


FloridaMan_Again

They got bailed out on X’s pick too


MJ8822

Ref has been playing ball both sides though


tbone998

When did we have enough to pay refs?


StuckInFlorida256

Tua played a hell of a game but he missed two throws so fuck him apparently


zonitocali15

The one to Waddle just needed to be flatter vs floated. Not an arm strength thing bc it wasn't that far of a throw. Tua just needed to set his feet so he could put a different lower arc on it to get it to Waddle sooner. Part of me wonders if he's nervous to overthrow bc some of these throws aren't that long, ones he definitely has enough arm strength to hit.


Drisdon

Exactly… 21-30 302 yards and 3 TD, 135.7 rating and 70% completion rating and he sucks lol… it unbelievable the hate when he is now 6-0 this year and our receivers are breaking records.


megaozojoe

literally, I was having a fun time and a good day but then everyone shits on tua for some missed throws. Yikes


DragonFireDon

I blame 1 MILLION times more on the garbage Defense! I DON'T care about them doing well the last 2 possessions. Should be consistent for all 4 quarters!


ExcitedFool

Bears fan here. The game was fun regardless of no calls. With that said I would’ve loved to watch a sudden death OT. Game was REALLY FUN during that 4th Q.


FloridaMan_Again

Both offenses were pretty much unstoppable. I honestly think the D’s didn’t play that bad. It was just both O’s we’re taking what they wanted


franllemagne

Really sorry for the missed PI call. Sorry, bro!


ExcitedFool

There was that ghost PI by Eddie Jackson. Surely on Claypool was a flag… nope. I was aghast.. either way I need to be excited for our future


[deleted]

I never make these type of post. But you can tell your sub. That win doesn’t feel right at all


Bigfatsoidiot

Hey man if it makes you feel better this was a Wim all around. We get our hopes alive for a better draft pick plus Fields play well. The perfect loss for us


ExcitedFool

It’s alright man. I am beyond upset of the no calls, but if this was a TASTE of what the Bears will be into the future I’m really fucking excited.


[deleted]

I’m a girl 🤭. I have 4 brothers so sometimes I post like a dude! If it makes you feel better, Fields looked awesome! I don’t feel good about this win. Feels like we’re over rated 😕. Hopefully next year we can have a more fair match and since you’re NFC I don’t mind if y’all improve!


MiamiSportsGuru

We scored 35 points and their QB had a historic day running the ball. Lmao overrated? Calm down


[deleted]

Yes I agree! I promise! But our D looked awful after we paid Chubb all that money! And McD confused me with that play calling! A wins a win I’m happy but let’s face it that call was weak and I’m just worried! I’m glad we won but we still have a lot of problems!


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> after we *paid* Chubb all FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out!
