Dolphins vs Bills game Summary 12/18/11

Grading the Dolphins

QB Moore was hot and cold all day but at the end of the day he played very well. His long 65 yard TD to Marshall was a great pass right on Marshall's fingers. He did not have to do much due to Bush's great game and he finished 10 of 20 for 217 yards and 2 TDs with no INTs. B+

RB Reggie Bush became the third man in Dolphin history to rush for over 200 yards and only the second to do it in the regular season (Ricky Williams did it twice on back to back games and Lamar Smith did it in the playoffs). He finished with 203 yards on 25 carries including a 76 yard TD. He is now only 27 yards shy of 1000 for the season, by far his best year in his career. Thomas also had a nice game rushing for 42 yards on 11 carries. A+

WR Marshall had only 3 catches but for 84 yards including a huge 65 yard score. He did fumble once. Hartline added 69 with yet another reception of over 40 yards and Clay also had a nice reception of about 30 yards. Fasano scored again. They did not need to catch a lot but they did when it counted. B+

OL John Jerry played for Jake Long and we did not hear is name which is very good. Bush and Thomas rushed for 245 yards and Moore had time to throw, what more can you really ask for ? A great game following an awful one last week. A

LB Most of the Bills offense came when the Dolphins were in the hated prevent defense at the end. They played well, Wake finally got to the QB and had sack number 7.5 this year. Taylor started for the injured Misi and was solid. B

DL Odrick had sack number 5 on the year. The Bils did manage to run much better than they should have but they did not break when they needed to. Starks also had a huge sack. B-

Secondary Vonta Davis had 2 INTs and Reshad Jones had another of a Nolan Carool deflection, Sean Smith also had a solid game. Fitzpatrick made most of his yards at the end. A good game by the unit. B-

Special teams They gave up not one but 2 very long kick returns and that's not good. Carpenter was solid and Fields was his usual self. Fields should really get an invitation to the probowl, he is just a very good punter, very good. Bess returned a few punts for good field position. B-

Coaching The first game coached by interim head coach Todd Bowles was a win. The offense played well especially the run game and the defense was solid as well. A nice win against a division team on the road in the snow. B+
