Wilma, you Bitch!! It is clear that the Dolphins do not play well during hurricanes. First it was Ivan, then it was Jeanne, and now Wilma is bearing down on Miami, very similar to the way the Kansas City Chiefs did on Friday night. They came, they got the better of Miami and like a whirlwind, they left. I am not sure about the other Sheddawgs, but I was able to catch the game on television and what I saw was complete domination by the chiefs offense. For starters, coming into the game and for the past couple weeks, everyone talked about the new lethal backfield combination in Miami.....but they did not mean Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson. R n R should watch some tape to see how it’s done. Holmes had 18 carries for 90 yards and 2 TD’s, Johnson had 23 carries for 93 yards and 1 TD. Did you see KC’s Time of possession? Over 40 minutes! Dolphin D were missing way too many tackles, and say what you will about Jason Taylor’s heart, but he was not ready to play. Finally, on a positive note, Ronnie Brown had one of the greatest runs I have ever seen in my 24 year career and Sage Rosenfels through a bullet to Chambers and ended the game with a QB rating of 158.3. Now the game against the Saints is a must win. Luckily the AFC east seems mediocre this season, because the Dolphins looked just that on Friday night. CHEERS TO: NFL Sunday ticket for showing the game.
