That was a fun game to be at. Glad I went. Henne looked ok and the rush offense and pass defense were superb.The bills suck though. Real bad.

Cotchery is questionable.I like this matchup for Miami. Miami cant cover anyone but the Jets dont throw all that well. Jets dont let anyone throw on them with Revis and the exotic blitzes.....Miami wants to run the ball as much as possible anyway.Miami 13 --- Jets 10

[CaneBrain]

The good news is that the Dolphins beat the Jets (despite the officials doing everything short of intentionally tripping Dolphins players to help the Jets win. Seriously, has a home team ever gotten hosed so many times on MNF? just ****ing brutal.)The better news is that with the Pats looking vulnerable.....maybe the Dolphins will hang around the AFC east race a while.The best news is that Chad Henne looked spectacular. Not one mistake. Great deep ball to Ginn. Two clutch throws to Camarillo late. Never got rattled by the Jets blitz.....only QB to have a good game against them this year. I think we might have a keeper. Looks like a completely different guy than the QB who came in against San Diego.Sanchez to Braylon was pretty impressive though. Complaints: The special teams coach should be fired now. Not tomorrow, now. Every kickoff our blocking is so horrendous the return man gets blown up at the 15. Our punt coverage is weak. And two fake punts.....come on. I am not sure that has ever happened before. This game really should not have been so close but for special teams blunders (and bogus, ridiculous penalties).We still continue to have the worst safety tandem in the league. Every week we get beat deep often. Already crossing my fingers that the Dolphins get Taylor Mays or Eric Berry in the next draft. We need an elite safety in the worst way to help shore up the secondary.

Seems to get better every week. And now they have an arm to take advantage of play action. Henne's numbers out of play action tonight: 7-7 for 140, 2 TD. Awesome. All starts up front. O-line is playing well, and both Ronnie and Ricky are at a high level. O-line is very young too. They could be building a really special (and very retro) offense (still could use a #1 WR....why didnt we try to trade for Braylon? he looks pretty sweet now that he escaped purgatory).

I'd like to see a few weeks of consistently good performances, but I'm definitely encouraged by last night. It's nice to see they're bringing him along slowly (lots of safe passes, check downs, hand offs, wildcat plays, etc.) but I'm glad they're willing to let him take a shot deep. It will take a lot more than one deep touchdown catch to get me on board with Ginn but they definitely have a chance to take advantage of his speed now, so I hope they throw it up for him more often and see what happens. Overall, I'm very happy with Henne last night. It's only one game, but if they can keep the running game solid and keep easing him out of a game manager role and find a way to make some plays down the field then I like they way our QB situation looks. We REALLY need a consistent playmaker at WR.

It should definitely help with Henne's development, that's for sure. They have a very solid tandem of backs and, fad or not, they execute the wildcat better than any team in the league.EDIT: And Rex Ryan can suck it.

Miami is a fun team to watch and that's saying a lot for such a run-dominated offense.

Ahhh, thank you thank you.I was thinking "teams" not "team's" so I was thinking it had something to do with the opponents.

Stats of the Week No. 10: A total of 29 players handled the ball -- running, passing or receiving -- on offensive snaps in the Jets-Dolphins game Monday.

Calvin Pace on the wildcat:"I can't respect that stuff because we're in the NFL, man," linebacker Calvin Pace told reporters. "If you're out there running that nonsense, it's crap."Calvin, remind me again why you didn't play the first four games this season? And you don't "respect" a team because of a formation they run very well? Well, then.

Was my reaction as well.Ed Reed said the Wildcat is just a gimmick until a team can throw out of it successfully. Is there any reason Tebow can't be used in this way? Bring him in for ten snaps a game and I think he would be have some real value there.

Jets LB who was suspended for performance enhancers. I just find it funny that he's bashing the formation after Miami ran it successfully against his team and using the word 'respect' considering he just got done serving a suspension. It might be a gimmick, sure, but they're using it effectively for now. Baltimore shut it down twice last year so Ed Reed has every right to criticize it, but teams who don't stop it shouldn't bitch about it.

That's why Miami drafted Pat White in the second round ( probably a bit of a reach, really), because he's the perfect weapon for the wildcat. It's also a shrewd trade for tyler thigpin, because he should be athletic enough to run the wildcat decently. Miami has a ton of non traditional offensive weapons, it really is a fun team to watch.

I don't think he was criticizing it so much as saying that you can scheme against it, but when a team can throw out of it just enough to keep defenses honest, then it's going to be a beast to stop.
