<\/a><\/p>\nThis is a first and ten play in the fourth quarter, and the Dolphins are in a two deep safety look, playing “please don’t get hurt” defense. \u00a0They only rush three players, something the Jets saw numerous times against the 49ers last week, and Fitzpatrick makes the right read by running forward. \u00a0The three man rush affords the Jets extra blockers, so running the ball for good yardage keeps the defense honest. \u00a0Fitzpatrick does a good job of crossing the line of scrimmage before being chased down. \u00a0He does have another run of longer yards, but it came on a third down situation where he needed to make sure he had the first down before running, which he failed to accomplish.<\/p>\n
Well that’s it for the Fitzmagic section in this game.<\/p>\n
Magician’s Assistants:<\/h2>\n
1)<\/strong>\u00a0 This is a simple drop off pass to Matt Forte, who turns around and gets a couple of yards. \u00a0Brandon Marshall is open for a deeper pass on this play, but Fitzpatrick ignores it like Bowles’ does logic. \u00a0There is nothing special about this one, it’s just a dump off pass, as the Dolphins are all but betting that Fitzpatrick can’t hit a deep pass.<\/p>\n 2)<\/strong> \u00a0 This is actually a good read by Fitzpatrick, but proving you can’t have it all, a bad throw by him as well. \u00a0Fitzpatrick recognizes the corner back lining up to blitz and sees the safety is too far off the line, so he throws a quick pass to Enunwa. \u00a0Unfortunately, it’s behind Enunwa, who makes a great adjustment, taps the ball to himself, and makes a juggling catch. \u00a0The second safety on this play is backpedaling without a reason, all but taking himself out of the play.<\/p>\n 3)<\/strong>\u00a0 The patented Fitzpatrick sidearm screen pass to Powell, who makes the most of it by running away like a season ticket holder. \u00a0The Dolphins secondary is in their clock watching defense, and chase down Powell after he gains the first down. \u00a0Notice the low knee block by Marshall on this play, showing animosity towards his former team. \u00a0Marshall had a similarly bad block in the last game as well, but wasn’t called for a penalty.<\/p>\n That is all the help Fitzpatrick got in this game.<\/p>\n 1)<\/strong>\u00a0 This play has Brandon Marshall open for a TD to the right side of the formation, but Fitzpatrick is locked in on Quincy Enunwa the entire way. \u00a0He stares him down like a disappointed parent for the entire route, which predictably ends in an incomplete pass. \u00a0Brandon Marshall even shows signs of life by raising his arm, but his pleas for attention go unnoticed. \u00a0Robby Anderson with the “screw this” walk to the sideline as well.<\/p>\n 2)<\/strong>\u00a0 Ryan Fitzpatrick recognizes the blitz, and makes an audible. \u00a0 The Dolphins realized that Fitzpatrick recognized the blitz and didn’t do squat to hide it. \u00a0Fitzpatrick makes them pay but hitting the outside corner of the end zone with this throw, but it wasn’t a Dude Perfect challenge, thus goes unrewarded. \u00a0There is nothing to write about this one, this is a clear case where the Dolphins said Fitzpatrick can’t beat us deep, and he proved the hypothesis with flagrant\u00a0evidence.<\/p>\n 3)<\/strong>\u00a0 Fitzpatrick locks in on Brandon Marshall on the play, and disregards the defenders in the area. \u00a0There is no pre-snap read on this one, as this is one of those “Hey Brandon, I got you bro” plays from Fitzpatrick. \u00a0The Dolphins get a hit on Fitzpatrick because he’s waiting on Marshall to get open.<\/p>\n 4)<\/strong>\u00a0 There are open receivers all over for Fitzpatrick on this, but he decides to throw this ball deep to Marshall, and makes a bad throw. \u00a0This is just another example of his ineptitude when it comes to passing the ball deep down the field. \u00a0Fitzpatrick doesn’t give Marshall a chance with this throw.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nBad Magic:<\/h2>\n
