He wasn't getting ready to cry at the very end after that big hit was he?

No, that hit was around the 7min mark of the 4th qtr. The last clip of Teddy where he appeared to be tearing up was around the 1 min mark of the 4th. My guess would be the coach said something to him and he got emotional. This game obviously means a lot to him and I'm sure he's glad hes breaking out! :biggrin:

Ginn shows he needs to be on the field

Dave Hyde | Sports Columnist 8:28 PM EDT, October 26, 2008 MIAMI GARDENS

Tony Sparano sprang from the celebrating locker room, hoarse with emotion, and asked the gathered media, "What do you want to talk about? Ted Ginn?"

His smile turned hard as he leaned forward. "Yeah, let's talk about Ted Ginn," he said.

OK, let's talk Ginn. He was the story Sunday. But Sparano is the column. Because as Sparano seemed to suggest here, as teammates openly framed Ginn's day for some reason, the issue never was how the big, bad media had written off Ginn and now he was vindicated with seven catches and 175 yards.

The thinking fan's issue involving Ginn always has been this: Why hasn't he been used more like Sunday to see if he has this kind of magic in him?

You read that article, and wonder what the hell the coaching staff has waited for?

Honestly, opening the game by throwing a deep ball, is the best thing that could have happened for Teddy and the team. It forced the Bills to play him honestly. He had a cushion a majority of the game because they respected his speed. His slant that went for 64 yards was a thing of beauty, and proves when the defenses play off of him, he can be lethal. Up until that point, Ted has faced tons of bump coverage and players ready to jump the short routes.

Nice game Teddy.

It will be better once Miami gets a real QB who can throw the ball farther than 40 yards.

Ginn also benefited from the fact that Terrence McGee only has one functioning knee and Whitner seemed a bit shy about popping him, when it appeared Donte might have had a couple different opportunities to decapitate Teddy.

Ginn (and the coaching staff) have to repeat this performance to begin silencing the critics.

Exactly. The Bills coaching staff said they knew that they were targeted McGee and it is pretty obvious he wasn't near a 100% The real question is why the Bills didn't put McKelvin in, or at least give McGee some help. Great game for Ginn, and hopefully this will help both his and Chad's confidence in Ted, but like you said, he defintely needs a repeat performance against a healthy corner.

And like others have mentioned, just imagine Ted with Henne throwing him the ball. :evil:

Ted Ginn's next test: Making Sunday's success routine

By EDGAR THOMPSON
Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

Monday, October 27, 2008
DAVIE ? Dolphins wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr.'s knew his day was coming.
Week after week, game after game, Ginn kept waiting to break out.
On Sunday, Ginn did, more than tripling his season-high with 175 receiving yards on seven catches during Sunday's win against Buffalo.
Now the hard part.
"In my eyes, it's something I've been wanting to do for a long time," Ginn said a day after his career day. "The only thing I can do is go out and try to do it more and more."
