    I never suggested it was realistic, but doesn't change my wish.

    Considering how popular Hard Knocks is for the team's fans, you would think it would be the next step to broadcast training camp to fans via the internet. The popularity of these threads shows there's enough interest in knowing what's happening, even if they can't show it all. To most fans, it's the first glimpse of their team in anything approaching football in at least 5 months.

    Get with the program guys and gals! We're suppose to panic about the defense now ...

    Oh, I wasn't attacking your post or being critical in anyway (sorry if it came of that way?).

    I was just letting you know the unfortunate reason why it probably won't ever be possible, as much as we all would love for that to happen. It's my wish too! :)

    Because I always thought he was better than he apparently is, I know he missed a couple kicks but I just thought he was a very solid kicker since entering..but, stats tell the story when it comes to kickers..

    Did you see him pull to the outside at all? I feel as if someone will take this the wrong way lol.

    The only thing is, we are pairing it with a second year QB. I think a good veteran QB paired with a shaky LT in a quick-pass system is less of an issue than a second year guy who may hold the ball a touch longer trying to decipher the field.

    Has Omar covered other team? I'm being serious.

    Or ball placement/accuracy was spotty.

    Can't know without seeing this stuff.

    Wish they had a subscription channel for training camp practices.

    If they let the media into the weight room on the day guys trained arms, they'd all write articles complaining the Dolphins only condition their arms, and question why we wouldn't train the rest of the body.

    Rooting for Gillislee or Gray to supplant DT. Won't happen with drops. Full pre-season yet to go though.

    This would be tremendous and would do wonders for people like us who attempt to remain objective about what we see. On the other hand it could cause an even larger lynch mob for the beloved beat writers. I would definitely pay for a service like this though. Beats the hell out of the few minute segment with Warren Sapp...

    I was drooling over those few precious minutes of footage and found myself wanting to rewatch them when they ended. Got me wondering.. how many other fans would gladly pay, say $9.95 for multi cam video of each public practice day?

    We should write Mike Dee... oh wait.

    I'd gladly pay 10 bucks to have that. Teams might be concerned of spies from other teams gathering information though.

    I hit you up in the other thread about this subject, something I've been thinking about for a while, but I can't get past how the team would allow footage to that degree..

    Probably referring to different iterations of the Dolphins. We damn sure have been through a lot in recent memory.

    It's an interceptions video. It's going to be bad. Every quarterback's interception/bad decision video is going to be bad. By definition. If I'm putting together a tape like this and I find a number of plays where the quarterback wasn't off by much or maybe got victimized by something out of his control, etc...to me that's a win.

    I think the consequences of offensive predictability were measurable on some of those interceptions. You had defensive players breaking on the passing lane well before Tannehill threw it, and often well before he even locked on. He shouldn't have thrown it, but he was set up to fail a little bit in some of those situations...placed in difficult situations. I don't know if all of that is going to suddenly get better just be Mike Wallace being in Miami. I tend to doubt it. But it was there in 2012.

    Some of the decisions were about as bad as it gets. Some less so. I still think the Pats interception he was trying to get it underneath to Hartline but was being clobbered and was unable to follow through so the ball sailed on him and made it look like he threw it to Rishard Matthews in double coverage. You get hit as you throw, bad **** happens. There was an interception against the Bills that Jairus Byrd swept over and snagged. That's another instance where I thought he had the right idea but he just forgot to look the safety off. Simple step would have resulted in completion. But he wasn't that far off from getting it right. There was one against the Titans where Fasano lost his battle and I thought he ran the route wrong and indecisively. Then ultimately the ball came in as a 50/50 ball and Fasano let the other guy have it without putting up much of a fight. You've ultimately got to put it on Tannehill but it wasn't Bad with a capital B. There was a pick against the Cards where Hartline fell down on a timing comeback route. That one I DO put squarely on the receiver and nobody else. You can't put that on Tannehill. Thought his first pick of the year throwing to Legedu was at least partially on Legedu running a bad route and making no break toward the ball whatsoever. Some more interceptions LOOK bad but really were about Tannehill having such confidence he thought he would squeeze the thing in there. Getting it batted at the line by J.J. Watt had a lot to do with the scheme and what Watt was doing on the plays. Not exactly horrible decisions or reads or anything like that.

    Point is if I find a lot of caveats on these bad plays then that's a win. They're all going to be bad to some degree and since it's a tape showing only bad plays, it's a tape that makes you look bad...to people who lack perspective. To me, some of them were Bad with a capital B...and most others weren't...and I think that's a win.

    i think the worst one was against the jets at home not because it was a pick 6 but because of the decision to throw it there

    He used to cover the Canes, I believe.

    But when he says "other teams", he means previous Dolphins squads he's covered.

    I believe it stems from Gregg Rosenthal somehow. I'm sure if we looked far enough into his and Omar's timelines, we'll see something along the lines of a "You cover fantasy football, I know more than you" comment from Omar to Rosenthal.

    I think it also has to do with Omar reporting that Dez Bryant was arrested, when it was actually Desmond Bryant.

    Public practices, I would think, should be doable. I see your point though, re other teams.
