Dolphins vs Colts road game Summary 11/11/01

Grading the Dolphins

QB Fiedler is sometimes like a slot machine, you put a quarter and pray for the best. He can hit a 74 yard great TD to Chambers then throw 2 INTs and miss McKnight when he is open by a bus length for the TD, you just never know. Fiedler pulled the game at the end with a nice 30 yard TD to Chris Chambers. He finished 17 of 29 for 259 yards, 2 TDs and 2 INTs. B-

RB Still no running game. Minor had a 56 yard TD run (a weird one with no tackling by the Colts). Lamar was bad but he did have a nice run at the end. He finished the game with 18 carries for 53 yards with a 2.9 yard per carry average. D

WR Chris Chambers had the breakthrough game everybody has been waiting for. He finished with 3 catches for 113 yards and 2 TDs. Gadsden had 6 catches for 71 yards. McKnight had 4 for 31 yards. Dedric Ward came back from injury and had 2 catches for 26 yards. A-

OL Still no running game. Fiedler was sacked only once. Wade was injured but came back. The Dolphins must do a better job of blocking for Lamar Smith, it's not only Lamar's fault. C

DL Jason Taylor was great with big plays when the Dolphins needed them. Taylor had 1 sack and he also had a fumble recovery managed to get hurt and come back as well. B+

LB Great game. Both Greenwood (first career) and Rogers had sacks, Zach Thomas had an INT. Thomas' name came up pretty often. B+

Secondary Madison was hurt (after getting his second INT of the year), Walker didn't play so Miami played without half of the secondary. Manning made some big throws but he is one of the best 2 QBs in the league so it's understandable. Harrison had 3 TDs in 9 catches for 174 yards. I always thought he was one of the best 3 WRs in the league and I still do. Rookie CB Jamar Fletcher played for the injured Madison. C+

Special Teams Bad just bad. Maybe it's time to look for a new punt returner (Dedric Ward ?) because Ogden fumbled his 3rd punt of the year and it led to 7 points the other way. Mare was a little short on kickoffs but perfect on FGs. Chambers was OK as a returner. Punter Matt Turk was great and he is having a brilliant season. D+

Coaching Well, the team won. When the team wins on the road against the Colts, how bad can you be. They had bad plays, missed plays, lucky plays but they prevailed at the end and they pushed all the right buttons when they needed to. B
