Dolphins vs Cowboys game Summary 9/16/07

Grading the Dolphins

QB Trent Green was just bad, one of his worst games ever. He threw 4 INTs and had one fumble. He could not even spike the ball resulting in another fumble which he recovered but it cost yet another down. The lack of a running game or a will to run the ball doesn't help. There is only one grade for his performance along with a question - in what game are we going to see rookie John Beck play ? F

RB The running back play was not very good, Brown was benched in the 4th quarter. The Dolphins coaching staff don't seem to have any confidence in the running game as they are abandoning the run very soon. D+

WR Chambers and Booker had a decent game. Booker scored and Chambers had more than 100 yards. Martin did not drop the ball this time. This unit was probably the only decent unit in this game. They were open many times. B-

OL The run-blocking was terrible. The pass blocking needs more work to put it mildly. They are just not playing well, especially inside. They fumbled on one snap and were iffy in the "attempt spike" play. Every snap became an adventure. D

LB The Cowboys were running at will just like the Redskind were last week, they also missed tackles and did not play well at all. They did allow 37 points. D+

DL The D-line did not pressure Romo at all. This unit looked 100 years old. They could not stop the run and they could not stop the pass. They just played awful, really awful. F

SecondaryRomo found open guys when he needed but the 5 minute time he had for every pass did not help the secondary. One bright spot, Will Allen is playing very well this year, the problem is he's the only one playing well. C+

Special teams Teddy Ginn can run, no doubt, but by now he needs to understand this is not college and teams in the NFL are fast. I think he is going to be a fine returned if he can get at least one block. He was OK. The coverage units were awful giving up a 49 yard return to Patrick Crayton the backup punt returner ? Having a million penalties ? D-

CoachingThe fans' patience is starting to run out. Ginn played only a few snaps on offense even when the game was all but lost, I don't get that. The team played slopppy with 5 turnovers and no pressure on Tony Romo at all. Even the special teams did not play well. The coaching staff has no confidence in the running game but the Dolphins can not pass real well also. F
