yet we won the game twice. 

In what world did the Dolphins win the game?

My shame Carpenter. From 48 & 47 are not gimme kicks, but you should make at least one of them.

In the world where the team and staff did what they had to do to win, but lost due to a kicker's error.  Of course they didn't ACTUALLY win.

Then in some fairy tale land where everyone gets a trophy they won? Moral victories are a stupid concept. The Dolphins lost the game.

The Dolphins lost the game.

And deserved to lose. 

They didn't lose because a kicker missed a long kick in overtime.  They lost because of a very bad defensive play at the worst possible time.  It's not as if the Jets just kicked the FG from the spot where Carpenter missed the kick.  Why do folks want to forget that? 
 
He missed a kick that he should have made and he'd be the first to say that, BUT just because you miss a kick doesn't mean the defense should stop playing.

I'm not talking about moral victories, but when assessing what went wrong, I submit the evidence that the coach and QB (those being ridiculed) put the team as a whole in a position to win the game under normal, statistical circumstances.  And Carpenter didn't come through.

Tannehill and Philbin did their part to win the game.  Carpenter did not.

Has to go to Carpenter this week. Heartbreaking to lose to the hated Jets in that game which we easily could have won.
