Both teams. They iced Carpenter and we iced their kicker. He is alluding to the fact Philbin did it at the last second and the jets still hiked the ball and we blocked it. He is pretending Philbin was wrong for calling the timeout prior to us blocking it. Not sure how he is suppose to be a fotune teller

Icing the kicker is no longer a good call...especially on short tries.  Kickers are expecting it, and it just doesn't work nearly well enough as it did the first year it was en vogue.  In fact, I bet it hurts more than it helps.  Saw it hurt today and saw hurt it last week in the Skins/Rams game.

FWIW I was pissed when they blew the whistle even before I saw the block.  It's just not a good strategy anymore.

Philbin coached a good game.  You guys are nuts.  Look at this team compared to last season...playing better with inferior talent.  Even the Jets had better talent, yet we won the game twice.  We aren't predictable and we trust our qb.  And it worked.  Your kicker didn't make kicks...twice.

Had you of told me yesterday we would go into overtime tied 20 -20 I would have taken it. The truth is we are playing better than our actual talent.

PRO level kickers need to be almost automatic inside 50 yards. Carpenter might wanna watch for his job after this performance.

Tannehill gets shame of the game this week.  The TD pick six was a major factor and he was only like 15-36 and had a hundred yards passing.  Not what you want to see from a rookie. 

He had a lot of dropped passes yes.  But without the INT the game never gets into overtime.

He had 196 passing. Pick him if you want but accuracy is nice.

Philbin had plenty of time to call a timeout well before the ball was snapped.

Some stupid coaches think that letting the opposing kicker get a practice kick is a good thing.  These stupid coaches are stupid.

Your vote isn't being counted.  Only one choice.

I have no idea why he's even in the league.  He can't run.  He's injury prone and likes to fumble.  That's not good.

Are we supposed to be mad about Fireland starting this season or the others that he's totally mishandled?  It's hard to discern anymore.

Saw this in Peter King's MMQB column.  I don't know if he gets a vote or not but he did cast one.

Goats of the Week
Dan Carpenter, K, Miami. Missed a 47-yarder, wide left, in regulation -- in a game that went to overtime. Missed a 48-yarder, wide left, on the second possession in overtime, a kick that would have won the game. I know Carpenter's 41-yarder in the final minute forced overtime. Goody goody. A kicker can't miss two kicks in the 40s.

Since I can't split the shame award, I'm giving it to Carpenter. You can't miss twice buddy, not twice.
