i give them a wildcard, since it was AP, the best back in the league, we all saw what he did and he does it to everybody, i´m not concerned yet
is there any light already why John Jerry is not at practice today ? also could an admin fix crowders name in the thread title.... edit: i figured it out, he is ill Dolphins OL John Jerry missed practice today due to illness.
Its my impression Dansby's more comfortable with Crowder, and I'd like to see if a chemistry exists, that allows each to elevate their game. Either way, I think his return relieves Dansby from some responsibiliity, and allows him more latitude to focus on his play.
Maybe we should resign eric green, gibril wilson, and jamar fletcher......seems mike nolan has a good way of making asstastic football players turn into all-pros over night!
now that's a point i can grab onto....whatever that beast wants..in fact, Id leave the decision up to him.lol
tony just said the best case scenario is for channing to play. http://www.miamidolphins.com/gamecenter/wednesday-press-conferences
of course it is, not really a surprise answer here, just lookin at the presser, did any of the reporters asked about the illness of Jerry ? did not here it, cant believe they wouldnt ask coach about him
Channing Crowder is the 2nd best MLB on the team and I don't think its really that close. Crowder brings alot of things to the table and with Dansby next to him I really think its going to make him better. Crowder is also a very vocal leader on defense YouTube - Dolphins LB Channing Crowder returns to practice YouTube - Miami Dolphins LB Channing Crowder practices Sept. 22
The fact that Armando stated he is taking 1st team reps with Dobbins makes me think he is at 100% or nearly there (possibly for Sunday). I imagine he will rotate in, on 3rd downs, and slowly transition into the starting role. TBH, I would hate for him to take plays away from Carpenter, but if that is the way he is going to get up to speed and take the job from Dobbins...ehh..so be it. Never was a fan of Crowder but he brings more passion and hopefully with Dansby next to him...some big plays.
man i hope jerry is alright for sunday, he has been pretty good for a rookie who was thrown into the fire right away
When you have a Ford on the freeway next to a Ferrari, does the Ford look faster? If he takes snaps away from Dobbins, so be it. As long as he doesn't take snaps from Carpenter we'll be fine. As Carpenter is the nickel guy and neither Dobbins or Crowder fit that role IMO.
Here's my thing with Crowder, at worst, for this week, that dude HATES the Jets. So we all know for at least this game, he would play his @#$ off. After that, then we just see how he does in given situations. At some point, we'll have to move somebody. 4 inside backers is a bit much. I'd love to be able to move one for an extra pick or something, but realistically it would be us cutting one of them.
DJ, I think his problem is not so much his athleticism, as I think he has quite a bit of it, but rather... not playing sound and intelligent football and his previous role. In a second fiddle role I see the coaches saying: CC go make plays and forget about calling the D. Recently, he has not made many plays, but I feel it is due to the role he had to play in calling the D. Let us see what he can do with that off his plate.
i dont think thats the issue, crowder is very smart, he had one of the best wonderlics in his draft class of LB´s, IIRC
