"Hey guys!"

That was quarterback Matt Moore's opening line in the huddle upon his return.

Teammates say the greeting came with a side order of of Moores's trademark cheesy grin.

The career backup has put on a cape and come to an NFL team's rescue his entire career, which includes leading the Dolphins to six victories during last year's rebound from an 0-7 start. So what he faced Sunday against the New York Jets was just like riding a bicycle.

"I had to get a couple of plays under by belt," Moore said, "but once we got into the swing of things and put some drives together I felt comfortable."

Comfortable enough to complete 11-of-19 passes for 131 yards and one touchdown in Miami's 30-9 blowout win over the Jets.

Moore replaced Ryan Tannehill, who suffered a left knee injury and hyper-extended his left quadriceps with 10:09 left in the first quarter and the Dolphins in possession of a 3-0 lead.

It's nice to see him get an opportunity to shine once more, even if only for one game.

Yeah, go ahead and tell us Moore only wins meaningless games. A now 4-3 Dolphins team picking up a key win against a division rival.

Would have had a ton more yards and another touch down if Jabar Gafney catches a bread basket 50+ yard touch down on the sideline. Moore did a great job. To be honest, we dominated the game with special teams and defense, so Moore wasnt asked to do anything (thats where he thrives imo). But I wouldnt want anyone else coming cold off the bench, than Matt Moore. Really happy Dolfan right now!

      "Keep Pounding"......

      By Jmac · Posted

      The motto means nothing if they lay down and submit to the opponent. One of the most embarrassing things I have seen from twenty years of being a fan.  Regardless if the lead seems to be insurmountable, you keep giving 110% untill the final second. Canales is definitely a Beta and it wasn't a good look at all. I wonder what the locker room was whispering about after that sh%t. I hope we never see this again and he actually grows a pair of balls. He needs to look in the mirror and understand that you just don't do that in the NFL. Maybe peewee football so kids don't get hurt. Throw the 3rd stringers in to run the play and finish the game wirh some some pride and don't bend the knee.

      Would you swap keeping Burns for Horn?

      By WarPanthers89 · Posted

      No but we should have kept both of them. People complaining about what he got paid can’t say much now because it’s absolutely worth it to get 15 sacks which we could desperately use, especially when you compare it to some of the free agents we have signed to try to replace that production (none of them have come close and we are wasting good money on them)

      That period started rough but the canes stayed with it.  They will when this game 3-1 or 4-2 the way it’s going.
