The Miami Dolphins were welcomed into M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday and were destroyed by the Baltimore Ravens 56-19.
Mike McDaniel’s team didn’t play their best, as both sides of the ball struggled to do much. The defense couldn’t stop Lamar Jackson and company through the air or on the ground, as he had his way with Vic Fangio’s unit. The offense turned the ball over three times, which didn’t help the problems.
Throughout the contest, Dolphins fans on social media were not happy with their team’s performance. Here’s what they had to say:
Big first drive by Miami. Did a great job mixing the run and the pass. Also, is there any quarterback more accurate than Tua Tagovailoa?

Fangio goes vanilla on the opening drive and Miami gets gashed by big plays. To @GrindingTheTape’s point earlier this week, Miami needs to do a better job of simulating different looks up front

Why Tyreek drops easy TD’s in every BIG GAME? WHY??? #FinsUp

Zach Sieler’s effort every week is simply one of one for a guy his size.

Those “timing” routes AGAIN. Tua is gonna get one of those intercepted man… those plays are garbage.

Mike McDaniel needs to address this problem. They need to stop wasting challenges and timeouts. It's going to come back and bite them. Two years of it.

Well defense gonna cost us this game … Eli Apple is a bum

Vic Fangio defensive plan for this game is trash playing for the run letting up big plays in the pass game all half
— Anthony Ho (@hova216) December 31, 2023
It felt like a Tua interception was coming at some point. He’s been squeezing the ball into tight windows. Really dumb to to force that before the 2 minute warning, though.

McDaniel and Fangio getting thoroughly out coached #MiamiDolphins Same old Dolphins

Dolphins defense can not allow Lamar to continue to have a picnic like he's Yogi Bear in the pocket for the second half.
Front 7 needs to generate more. #finsup

DeVon Achane is sitting in the flat waiting for the pass and Tua takes a sack. 🤦🏿

Zach Sieler came to play today and is fired up. Would be nice if the rest of the team had that kind of energy.
— Finscentral (@finscentral) December 31, 2023
Tua what are you doing, bro?
Defense gets you the ball in prime position, and you immediately throw a pick?
Talk about throwing you Defense umder the bus— Garrett Wood #BoltUp⚡️ (@Halonut24) December 31, 2023
the dolphins make me cry
— Kenny Powers 🤣😂🤣 🐬⬆️ (@JeffHerrman2) December 31, 2023
Tua with an absolute dot to Claypool in the end zone with double coverage.. and it’s dropped lol, it’s just that type of day.
— C (@champagnebodden) December 31, 2023
Thought Vic Fangio was supposed to be a mastermind? None of these Raven WR have a DB within arms reach??? Embarrassing man
— Stan (@NetsFanStl) December 31, 2023
Get Mike White off the team
— Rickey (@Ii1Rickey) December 31, 2023
This is the worst day for Dolphins fans since…
*checks calendar*
… ah, right: December 11th.

It’s not easy being a Dolphins fan in December
— Stanton Oster (@Soster23) December 31, 2023
Only the Dolphins can make me sad and angry at the same time.
I’ll never stop loving this team. But today was embarrassing.
— mr. perfect fins (@adamt_fins) December 31, 2023
This is literally a disaster for the Miami Dolphins. I knew they weren’t going to beat Baltimore, but this game is downright embarrassing.
Division title is on the line next week. That game is against the Bills.#MIAvsBAL #FinsUp

I don't even care about the loss at this point, I've accepted it.
It's these big time injuries man. #finsup
— Reason (@the_real_reason) December 31, 2023
This is why no one has taken us seriously all season.
If we win next week, likely it will be Buffalo at home.
Lose and it's Chiefs on the road.Rough either way #FinsUp https://t.co/Vm0BuOpyBW

You couldn’t have made it worse for yourself @MiamiDolphins if you actually tried. So many failures. And keeping starters in down 30+ and now lose yet another star!!!???? What a complete disaster. #FinsUp
— Iain R. (@icredman11) December 31, 2023
The dolphins didn’t show up to play football today. #FinsUp
