Chad Henne lost this game for the Dolphins as he wasted a great effort by the D.  He threw a pickoff with less than a minute go that led to a Browns’ 23-year field goal as time expired.  Chad Henne completed 16 of 32 passes for 174 yards with 1 TD pass and 3 INTs.  Ronnie Brown was busy in this game with 16 carries for 50 yards (3.1 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 27 yards (13.5 avg).  Ricky Williams pitched in with 48 yards rushing on 10 carries (4.8 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 19 yards (9.5 avg).  WR Davone Bess (6 rec, 67 yards) and TE Anthony Fasano (4 rec, 41 yards, TD) led the way in the passing game for the Fins yesterday.  The Dolphins finished up with 114 yards rushing on 32 carries (3.6 ypc) and they also completed 16 of 32 passes for 167 yards.

LB Tim Dobbins (7 tackles) and OLB Cameron Wake (4 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss, 1.5 sacks and 3 QB hits) led the way for the Dolphins’ D in this game.  The Browns finished up with 52 yards rushing on 22 carries (2.4 ypc) and they also completed 24 of 34 passes for 200 yards. 

Dan Carpenter set a Dolphins’ all-time record with a 60-yard field goal but he also had one blocked and that block really hurt them in the end. 

The Dolphins are now 6-6 on the season after this HUGE loss to the Browns.  They can’t afford any more losses if they want to have any chance of making the playoffs.

Pittsburgh Steelers 23, Miami Dolphins 22

The Dolphins got hosed at home by the refs in this game.  Ben Roethlisberger fumbled the ball inside the Fins’ one yard line with about 2 1/2 minutes left in the game.  The ball rolled into the end zone where a host of Dolphins dove on the ball.  Replay officials said they couldn’t determine who had the football so they gave it back to Pittsburgh.  Jeff Reed then nailed a 18-yard field goal with 2:26 left in the game and those were the final points scored.  Chad Henne had a pretty solid game for the Fins today as he completed 23 of 36 passes for 257 yards with 1 TD pass and 0 INTs.  Ricky Williams led the way on the ground for the Dolphins today with 48 hard earned yards on 11 carries (4.4 ypc).  Ronnie Brown couldn’t get anything going today as he carried the ball 9 times for 14 yards (1.6 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 20 yards (10.0 avg).  WRs Davone Bess (6 rec, 66 yards, TD), Brian Hartline (5 rec, 57 yards) and Brandon Marshall (5 rec, 57 yards) led the way in the passing game for the Fins today.  The Dolphins finished up with 64 yards rushing on 21 carries (3.0 ypc) and they also completed 23 of 36 passes for 249 yards today.

The defense was outstanding against the run but a little rough along the edges against the pass for the Fins today.  LB Karlos Dansby (9 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss) and safety Chris Clemons (9 tackles, 1/2 a sack) led the way for the Fins’ D in this game.  Rookies (LB) Koa Misi and (S) Reshad Jones each had a fumble recovery in this game for the Fins.  The Steelers finished up with 58 yards rushing on 27 carries (2.1 ypc) and they also completed 19 of 27 passes for 290 yards.  The Dolphins are now 3-3 on the year.

The Dolphins were up 7-6 at the half last night as things seemed to be looking good.  That didn’t last long though as Brandon Tate of the Patriots returned the opening kickoff of the second half 103 yards for a TD.  Safety Patrick Chung of the Patriots was a beast for the Patriots last night as he returned a interception 51 yards for a TD, he blocked a field goal that was recovered and returned 35 yards for a TD by CB Kyle Arrington and Chung also blocked a punt that set up another score for the Patriots!

Chad Henne completed 29 of 39 passes for 302 yards with 2 TD passes and 3 INTs (one was returned for a TD) last night.  Tyler Thigpen finished up this game at QB and he completed only 2 of 6 passes for 15 yards with 1 INT.  He also had 1 carry for 12 yards.  Ricky Williams was very effective for the Fins in this game as he carried the ball 8 times for 56 yards (7.0 ypc) and he also caught 4 passes for 45 yards (11.3 avg) with a TD grab.  Ronnie Brown wasn’t near as good as he carried the ball 11 times for 27 yards (2.5 ypc) and he also caught 4 passes for 29 yards (7.3 avg).  Davone Bess (9 rec, 93 yards, TD), Anthony Fasano (5 rec, 67 yards) and Brandon Marshall (5 rec, 50 yards) led the way in the passing game for the Fins last night.  The Dolphins finished up with 95 yards rushing on 20 carries (4.8 ypc) and they also completed 31 of 45 passes for 305 yards.

Safety Yerehmiah Bell (7 tackles) and OLB Cameron Wake (5 tackles, 1 sack, 2 tackles for a loss and 3 QB hits) led the way for the D last night.  The Patriots finished up with 119 yards rushing on 32 carries (3.7 ypc) and they also completed 19 of 24 passes for 146 yards.  The Dolphins are now 2-2 on the year.

The Dolphins’ D didn’t show up last night and a very good effort by the Fins’ offense was wasted.  Chad Henne looked great last night as he completed 26 of 44 passes for 363 yards with 2 TD passes and 1 INT.  Ronnie Brown (11 car, 54 yards, 4.9 ypc) and Ricky Williams (7 car, 28 yards, 4.0 ypc) gave the Fins some ground support last night.  Brandon Marshall had a huge game for the Dolphins last night with 10 receptions for 166 yards (16.6 avg) with a TD grab.  Davone Bess (6 rec, 86 yards), Brian Hartline (5 rec, 84 yards) and Anthony Fasano (2 rec, 14 yards, TD) each pitched in for the Fins last night in the air attack.  The Dolphins finished up with 84 yards rushing on 23 carries (3.7 ypc) and they also completed 26 of 45 passes for 352 yards.
