[freddies33es22]

London Calling

London was the site for Week 4's Jets/Dolphins game. After another uneven first half, the Dolphins' defense FINALLY clamped down and shut out the Jets in the 2nd half. That allowed me to run the football more and control time of possession and win the game 27-17.

--Long bombs! My defense gave up yet ANOTHER end-of-half bomb to Eric Decker after I scored twice in a minute after finally forcing a turnover with a Brent Grimes INT.
--The workhorse. Lamar Miller had another 28 carries, while my backups had zero. My Auto Sub settings for RB are I believe 80 in/79 out. Any ideas?
--I DO have wide receivers! I finally got some production out of my WR, as Kenny Stills had 74 yards and a TD, and he caught a nicely-thrown 30-yard pass from Tannehill in the 2nd quarter, and had a TD catch in that quarter as well.

GAME NOTES
--We are still giving up too many YPC and have no pass rush. I am going to hope that moving to a 3-4 and adding an extra linebacker will help with that next season.
--It only took 6 quarters against 2 of the worst offenses in the AFC to get my defense on track, but at least they did at some point.
--Ndamukong Suh played much better, had another sack (his 2nd of the season) and even a TFL, but I am trying to work on ways to get him more involved.
