A chance to come out and show everyone how strong and united they are, and they suck! Zero running game again, The O-Line is Swiss Cheese, and the D Fense came up small in the 4th quarter, not to mention letting the backup TB running backs look like Earl Cambell. Rant over.....we should not even be in the playoff conversation.
Agree^^ We aren't a playoff team at this point. Ryan Tannehill can't do it all and he basically had to tonight. No running game, we give up zero sacks until the final effing drive of the game...GO FIGURE! Thats happened all friggin year long! It's over...Ship sunk...Flatline.
I'm thinking Gus Malzahn and Jimmy Garoppolo just to get things going in the right direction. Any guesses on Tannehill's trade value at the end of the season??
The shot of Ross getting up to leave after the pick says it all. He'll blow it up after this season. Philbin may not deserve that. Ireland certainly does.
Next year, the OL will take HUGE resources. We have no LT, RT, or guards to carry over to next year. Think about that, no OL, except a Center. The offense could be good, the defense is only above average but the LB corp needs rebuilt too. Thanks Ireland.
He actually started getting up to leave right after the second sack, before the hail mary pass that ended in a pick, which is even worse.
randy starks and soliai are playing for big contracts?! could've ****ing fooled me. where the **** were those assclowns. Offseason cap space got easier tonight with not having to resign either of those pieces of ****
the defenese getting steam rolled by the bucs 3rd and 4th RB were far more disappointing than our offense.
...and the center is facing RICO charges in the Hernandez investigation. He may well be in an orange jumpsuit by the time next season starts.
agreed. particularly Soliai. Starks did make a couple of plays. Both lines looked slow off the ball. Complete opposite to how they played against the Bengals. Really disgusting.
Yeah im getting over it. This team has done just enough to give us false hope for a long time. Im talking generally now. Im almost ashamed that i still even care so much. ****ty product, time to move on, maybe take up ice sculpting on sundays.. ....and ill be back next week. Ugh Still on board with tannehill, but he needs to run once in awhile!! Even brady and manning do.
I just keep thinking of all the off season hype with all the $$$$ that was spent on free agents! Zero to show for it, what an embarrassment. Where is the pass rush?!, all I saw tonight were missed tackles and TB running backs ripping thru the middle! They need someone who is a better judge of talent, not someone who just throws money around to make it "look good"
after wilsons int, i believe it was 2nd down where tannehill steps up in the pocket and throws an incompletion. If he goes for the pile on, he scores. The fact that he never takes off is getting aggravating.
Everyone needs to go IMO, the coaching is just good on either side of the ball... players making dumb mistakes or just not giving a lot of effort, all on coaching.
why please tell me why Ross has so much love for Ireland he sucks and Philbin isn't a head coach because good coaches don't lose to a winless team . a good coach doesn't let the team get embarrassed by letting the locker roam blow up.
Not scoring on that 1st and goal after the INT was the turning point IMO. Im not crazy about the play calling. And with such a poor O-Line, how the H3LL do they call a running play in the endzone? (after the first one was almost a safety?!!)
We're not eliminated from the playoffs but I haven't seen anything from our team that we'll be able to beat the Chargers next week. Not sure we can beat the Bills or Jets and especially not the Patriots. 4-12 team, 5-11 at best. Sammy Watkins should be our target.
Im thinking the coaches mustve drilled into to Tannehill to stay on the pocket no matter what. Reverse Mike Vick situation.
Exactly what I read of Ross tonight too and the shots we saw. He looked very upset at the end of that game, leaving early too. Every time things went bad, they showed him and NAt Moore alot, and Moore was talkin, Philbin was listening, and looking disgusted. Talk about Ross all you want, but it sure seems like he cares about fixing this mess, and he's relying on people in the know at least. I saw an Owner tonight... displeased with all things Miami Dolphins. Changes are going to happen IMO, and I dont think its going to take much longer.
I'm wondering how low will attendance go (for the non-Pats/Jets games while will basically be road games)? There were only 52,000 for the Bengals primetime game. Do we actually hit 42,000 against Carolina? I mean, even season ticket holders probably don't want to waste the time and cost of parking/food/etc to watch a team with a lame-duck front office and a bunch of overpriced lame-duck players in a meaningless season. I sadly have a ticket to Dolphins-Jets that I really need to unload...really don't want to waste $100+ to go sit at the Meadowlands.
Why are our overpriced LB's constantly making tackles 7-10 yrds down the field? Why is our disinterested WR an after thought in this offense? Why wont Wallace fight for a football? Why is the 3rd pick in the draft primarily a ST's player? Why cant we get a single draft pick this year on the field? Why does Sherman have Thomas run(or fall) wide and throw a screen to Clay on 1st and goal and 3rd and goal? Why does the other Team know our snap counts? Why are we the laughinstock of the NFL right now?
I think Panthers fans will make the drive to Miami. They got a nice team to root for, their defense is legit, hasn't given up a first half touchdown all season long, and Cam is playing up to his potential.
Ross shouldn't wait till the offseason. Fire Ireland now, make an example of him as a scapegoat for the Martin-Incognito embarrassment. Maybe fire Philbin and Sherman now too.
I agree he needs to run more often, but he takes so many hits already in a game, perhaps he has no desire to take additional hits by running the ball.
So far I've been a fan of Philbin. Or at least had some patience with him. After last night, I am now questioning whether he is indeed a good coach. Sorry, but that's as big of a statement game as we're going to get this season... and look what happened. Barely showed up in the first half. Sorry, but unless we win out from here on (which won't happen), I think Philbin might be gone as well as Ireland. We spent so much money in the offseason and what do we have to show for it? So far, nothing. This team is definitely more talented than last year but it's not showing on the field. That's on the coaches.
Not sure we can beat the Jets? I have news for you...TWO yards against the Bucs defense and they blew through our OL at crunch time like we weren't even there. What do you think we're gunna do against Rex's defense? That game will get ugly....fast.
As a Lifer, rooting for the 'Fins decades before there were other NFL Teams in Florida... last night placed a cap on the early nightmare that 2013 is becoming. Even Shula has to be shaking his head as Tannehill continues to make such poor decisions with the ball(apparently the QB Coach is absent), and now it appears that we can't stop a practice squad running back. My gawd Ryan, RUN with the ball from the 12 yd line! I grew weary of Gruden lauding the Double A gap prowness of our Defensive Coach and yet, regardless of whatever "gap" they were trying to fill, it failed. A national audience, with 60% occupancy in a Stadium that practically begs people to come, Unbelievable. I know, because I live in Tampa. Mike Shermans' play selection continues to border on the horrific! How can Philbin stand there with the lifeless look he has mastered and watch a supposed "professional" team perform like it did last night? Without leadership, any team will just go off in 1000 different directions, and it sure looks like the "Fins used 985 of them last night. The GM has his hands full already with players who can't stand being teased , but can you at least "call" out the Coaches for doing everything in their power to sabotage the winning process? It's funny how the public who buys the swag, watches with intent at the neighborhood sports bar and sucks it up to buy tickets, appear to be the only ones who care. It is so rewarding to watch the players sitting on the bench cutting up, playing grab *** while they embarrass themselves. "Hey, I got paid.. Relax" is the message it sends. I guess that's just what I will do, and think real hard the next time I reach for my wallet. Get it together Philbin and Sherman, which could double as comedy show on Nickleodeon.
I see what you did there....and i like it. i'm starting to agree. I blame Wheeler for the loss. If he doesn't rough the passer, we may be talking about "maybe we'll be ok" instead the sky is falling
