The Browns collapsed in the last 2 mins, the Raiders collapsed and blew a big lead. Yes, maybe this is coaching, maybe the coaches relaxed, tried to do things they normally would not in games thinking the game was "over", which fed into the players freelancing, losing focus.. Who knows, but it was bad football.. I saw a college team score the go ahead touchdown with 50 seconds left. Then the guy who scored got called for taunting, unsportsmanlike, 15 yards off the kickoff. In the same end of play, his coach got called too, another 15 yards. They kicked off from their 10 yard line, and lost the game...

The fourth quarter is when you salt the game away. Eat up clock, take what ever will the other team has left away. The offense did none of that, no time consuming drives, certainly not pound them into submission. All we got were 3 completions for 9 yards and a punt. The Dolphins may have rushed 7 and eight, but only 3 of them actually tried to get to Lamar, the others hung back, making sure he could not escape, run. Lamar, as great as he was, still Mae a few key mistakes. Yes he completed a pass to Andrews for 7 yards, but he had Bateman, on the same side, open for 15 + yac, further down field. This is just one example. Then factor in the inability to get a half a freaking yard 3 times, yes, the offense shares blame for losing a 21 pt lead in the 4th. Afterall,, it was not as if the Phins got the ball three straight times without the Ravens having the ball... Somewhere in there ya have to have a drive, even just one, there was six minutes left in the game and they only took 1 minute off of the clock at one point...

Boy was it on display today, the offensive line that did a masterful job pass protecting, couldn't even gain a half yard in run blocking, 0 movement. A.defense that only gave up 7 pts in the first half, caused 2 turnovers, had 2 sacks, couldn't stop anything in the 2nd half. That is coaching, not players.

I am disgusted, just unbelievable, a 21 pt blown 4th quarter lead, with the offense not turning the ball over, in the 4th, save for one turnover on downs. This teams inability to get half a yard on 3 different occasions is likely a major factor in the loss. The fumble at the goal line in the first did not help but did not play a factor in a 21 pt fourth quarter debacle. Play calling on both sides of the ball, personnel usage, yeah, that was the difference. Playing for a field goal once they passed the 50, usual Harbs stuff. This defense collapsed, outside of 2 Houston sacks, in the first half as usual, there was no pressure, not even from him. They could not get off of blocks leading to major gains on the ground. Coverage seemed to be no more than let them catch it then tackle them. They gave up 6 touchdowns in the air, six. Queen and Harrison were pretty much no shows, as usual, the defensive line was just playing patty cake with the phins offensive line. You have a 21 pt lead and you go 0 coverage? You only rush 2 on multiple occasions, 3 on several more... Even with 8 and 9 in coverage you give up big plays and not as if Tua had to hold the ball for ever, it was five steps throw, touchdown... This defense is a mess and injury is not an excuse. McDonald has a lot to do and also to prove. So far he isn't impressing me

Lamar and the receivers are tearing them up for 3 quarters, what, all of a sudden no one is open?
-
The coaches lost this game, rushing 2, on defense, using rookies in a complicated coverage call, running the ball when running wad not working.... A coach's job is to out players in a position to succeed. They failed today, 21 pt lead, poof, gone
-
You had to keep trying to score a touchdown, not some hail mary on 3rd down and 12
-
What makes them think the defense can stop them? They haven't all 2nd half
-
What the hell was that?
-
What a horrible set of play calls, we lose
-
Typical Harbs, play for a field goal
-
They have 2 timeouts left
-
Don't settle for a field goal, are you kidding me?
-
Duv hangs on, but got rocked
-
PI will help
-
This defense sucks, a 21 pt lead in the 4th blown...
-
Drop 8, no safety help, playing games, I am.not amused
-
Drop 8, wide open, touchdown tie game
-
Big 3rd down, need a stop
-
Don't shake your head Washington, you've given up over 450 yards
-
That drive took no time, we might lose this game
-
You can't run the same plays you ran in the first half, they adjusted
-
Holding its punt time again

Oh my boy did we get lucky, that was a pick 6
