I'm really confused on who I should be rooting for in the Dolphins v Chargers game
We were just talking about that when we turned on the game. Dolphins, right? Gotta bounce the Chargers.

The fact that they call Waddle "The Penquin" made me slightly like the Dolphins, too.

Man, I just fucking hate the Dolphins, especially now with every announcer gushing over their hipster nerd coach. But they are who we want to win tonight, right?
I thought it was cool to listen to McDaniel talk about how working with a guy like Tua is why he got into coaching in the first place. No idea if he’s taking too much credit for Tua’s breakout, but it was an authentic moment, which is more than I could say for pretty much anything else in the pregame.

To each their own, but I really enjoy McDaniel. He seems genuine.

Hill is enough for me to hate this version of the Dolphins.

I know I’m supposed to be rooting for Miami but it’s so hard. I’m reacting like I want the Chargers and then I’m like …oh right…that’s not actually good. Maybe just going to let what happens happen

Turf playing weird. A couple guys just gel but Ekeler used it to his advantage earlier.

Are we sure Tua is alright physically?

He was uncharacteristically inaccurate last week, now this.

I made a joke about it but it has to be something. He looks bad. Maybe he will get it together.

Incompletion.
I thought so too. Amazing that they were able to get an angle that showed his toe grazing the turf, slightly disturbing the pellets. It was so subtle that I’ll bet the receiver himself wasn’t sure if he had dragged the toe.

They got it fairly quickly too. Nice use of replay.

We enjoyed Collinsworth saying “Dicker the Kicker.”

I hate that. I wish it was always a dead ball for the offense, they shouldn't benefit from their screwup.

That was a crazy play. Great awareness by Tyreek, grabbing the loose ball and immediately recognizing he had a chance to score.
