Why did we use a T.O? The worst thing for this team is for the offense to be on the field.

We aren't even making it hard on the Bills. All they had to do today was show up. If Philbin had any decency he would go in at halftime and quit.

Tannehill might be the worst 2 minute QB since Cleo Lemon. He's horrible.

Their K makes kicks...ours doesnt'. Too bad we didn't have that guy. Oh wait. We did have that guy. Hmmmmm...if we had kept that guy, we might...

Way to go, Dmitri. Third and long and leave your go totally open. geez.

Rashad Jones is a total chump. ROFL. Horrible effort.

We got an INT and lost yards...and then we put in our kicker who cannot seem to kick anymore. This team is total turmoil.

Who was Tannehill throwing that too? geez.

Time for another Tannehill INT. I feel it coming from this clown.

I dont think we need QB competition...we need a new QB. RT should not be involved in that competition.

Matt Moore...bring him on.

Grimes is a chump. Been saying that, too.

My top candidate right now for the new coach is Mike Patricia, the DC of the Pats. He's young, but I think he's bright and hes got energy. We have...

Overpaid. I've been saying it.

Tannehill is such a chump. LOL

This game is OOOOOO-Veerrrrrr! So is the season. That huge flushing sound you hear of Fins going down the crapper. All that money spent on...

We need to start a fire-sell. I would put every player on our team on the trading block, other than Pouncey. That's all we have to start with..a...

There was no reason for Don Jones to even touch the ball. None. Other than, hes not real bright.

ROFL..this is seriously funny. Oline is atrocious. QB horrible. Don Jones pathetic.

yes, we did. There is not one FA or one rookie that is overperforming for us. There are PLENTY that are underperforming. Get ready for the...

The coaching of this team is atrocious. Its nearly non existant. I dont know how much better or worse we'd be if the guys just came in and worked...

Tannehill is not the answer. He's no better than Chad Henne. No difference.

Actually, no. It shows a very good understanding of the game. The bigger question is why this is hard for you?

We won't be the 6th seed if we don't win. We have to win this game if this season is to have any meaning at all.

The Bills are 2-4, down to a QB on their PS squad. They are going to lose 6-7 more games this year. Whether this is one of them or not...its not...

And you are absolutely correct.

Its irrelevant for Buffalo. Its a must win for Miami.

No, its not. The Pats game in a few weeks isn't a must win. We are mostly like already reduced to fighting for a wildcard spot...but if we lose to...

Lets hope he continues to improve...and solidify our DBackfield.

Starks is well paid. He's a good player. Polite, Moore...nothing special. Pennington was a special case. Bess was decent. Wake is a phenom.

Ok....

First of all...Seriously, I want to thank you for this post. This is the kind of post we should be dealing with. This is good information, and you...

Ok, whatever. Thats one. Any others?

I'll leave L Brown's status up to the team who traded for him. The challenge was to name a player that is performing above his draft status....

With the exception of Levi Brown, those aren't linemen. And Brown was traded to get a fresh start. Jury out on him. Good try...actually excellent...

Richmond Webb, Joe Thomas, Orlando Pace, Iaupti in SF, his brother in Pittsburgh, the guard in GB thats hurt now....is that enough? I can look up...

But...when the pick a player in whatever round, that players salary is slotted to where he is picked. This is silly. Rookies salaries are...

I totally disagree with you on this.

ROFLMAO. Yes, a team could technically not pick player in the draft to avoid the rookie cap. That's a bit of a stretch, though...no?

I dunno...I think when you pick a guy in the first round, that comes with high expectations.

No, its not wrong at all for you to have an opinion about the player. Why is it that you feel the need for me or others validate your...

If I said he sucks, that is too harsh. He does not suck. I think on a good team, he's the second CB, the primary. If he's the primary, its going...

I think the reflexive tendencies by many of you are so strong, you cannot see past them. I am not asking you to satisfy me at all...I am asking...

Great insight. Its personal, but brilliant none the less. But the ones who are to be done in by natural selection are also not concerned, just as...

LOL...right.

If there are rookies on this team outperforming their draft status or FAs on this team that are a bargain, name them. Why is that hard for you? Or...

ROFL. I am not surprised. Those who are done in by natural selection are never concerned. Hence....

Who are they?

You obviously don't care about content...you never comment on that. You only comment on the poster. Its how you roll.

There arent plenty of safeties making more money that are playing worse.

No, they actually dont.

True to form....Phinsational refuses to address the content of the post, instead hinges on an insignificant grammatical error. The GM does need to...

ROFLMAO. Because I really like you Mr Clean, and I want you to be safe...so to your existence and continued survival...I lift my glass to warning...

The difference is, we had no choice in what they were getting paid. We didn't make a team decision to OVER PAY the rookies. This is so basic, so...

You want to point out exactly where I am wrong? Oh no, that requires critical thiinking. Much easier just to attack me personally. Yes, unless...

I think so. Understanding he has 11 games to redeem himself. Right now, he's been putrid. If we had not extended him yet, there would certainly be...

The point is (to me was axiomatic--obviously, not to you) any rookie we had is getting paid rookie money. Its set on a scale. That money is paid...

He's a second corner...he shouldnt be our first guy. He's not that good. I know since we signed him, he automatically gets upgraded in everyone's...

No loss to us at all.

Mr. Clean, pay attention. This isn't that hard. Tannehill, Pouncey, Sturgis--rookie contracts, money is irrelevant. I dont think Grimes is earning...

Seems reasonable enough to me. We have to fix the oline to properly evaluate RT. Certainly its the bane of our passing game right now,...

This is right. Wallace and Jones have been terrible at times this year. Both are making big money. If we can (if we gave ourselves an option to...

Wrong. We haven't paid him 60 yet. We have planned to pay him 60, unless his performance gives us a reason to rescind that offer. IMO, so far,...

Wait? Because Mike Wallace drops passes, I should go away for one year? Oh, okay, I get the logic. Because me talking about him dropping passes is...

Oh okay...then we may have to deal with him this year and next. Great. A whole lotta dropped passes are in our future. ::sigh::

Its not too early. Their are only 16 games. We are a third of the way through the season. We have to consider that Mike Wallace got over on...

In my OP, I didn't advocate "cutting Wallace" or anyone else right now. I asked if anyone knew the cap implications, and even admitted, that it...

AFTER the season...not now. Reading Is Fundamental.

Now you are making things up...I never said "cut him after five games". I asked if there was an out, after the season, if we cut him. Or did he...

Yes, I want them both replaced with someone better, but I am not concerned about restructuring them. They dont affect our future cap at all....

Show me someone on the OLine making 60 million and I'll want him gone, too.

this!!

No. Not at all. I am all for castigating him to death. I am just not concerned with restructuring or eliminating his contract.

This is true. But RT is our QB. He sucks right now, but hes not going anywhere.

Exactly.

ROFL...you wish we had won so you wouldnt have to look at threads? Seriously? Unfortunately, I think you are not alone. Its seems to me people get...

Hartline doesnt drop many and Gibson is way cheaper. When you make 60million dollars, catch like it.

Thanks. Well, if we can at least jettison Wallace...thats the bigger problem anyway. We may have to absorb RJ's contract.

Thats why I asked the question. I dont know if there is anything we can do.

I came here and posted that I thought the Fins did better than I thought they would. Not sure what that has to do with the way the Fins played?...

Which is why its smart to have a KO specialist. Its well worth the investment. Not having one cost us a game yesterday.

This!

This is ironic. Because you have totally complained about my post, when no one forced you to respond to me either. Hello Pot, Meet Kettle.

That is the Truth, right there. Well said.

Uh...just the opposite. You get lauded for posting nonsense. People who post objective truth get ridiculed with mob shouts of "ban this troll" for...

Wannyball is wishful thinking at this point.

So, thats the only choice? I am either a troll or I am unrealistic? Nothing else? It can't be that I think Mike Wallace is grossly overpaid for...

I dont care that people take me seriously. Thats their right to think what they will. I am a bit shocked at the "I disagree, so ban him" reaction....

Why should I be banned? Because you dont agree with me? I am Fins fan with an opinion on why we suck. Why does my opinion have to conform to yours...

I thought our Dline played pretty well. Olivier played better. Our S were garbage though.

My post does not take aim at any other poster. I am the target of other posters. I think I understand you are saying that "phinsational" or...

Thanks. I appreciate that. I know, I know...everyone thinks our QB and HC are awesome. And they can think that. I will get personally attacked...

Does it bother you that people start threads? You can always not read them.

Are you kidding me? I am drinking wine and eating cheese. I am not stressing, certainly not the point of lacking oxygen. ROFL.

A total team failure today...OL, WR, QB, Place Kicker, DBs, LBs, ST Coverage, Offensive Coaching. Big Time changes are needed in Miami.

These guys are LOSERS! Tannehill needs to go away, I am now convinced. You cannot take a sack in that situation. EVER!!

This isn't even funny.

This has turned into an old fashioned beat down. Our boys ARE NO WHERE CLOSE to be ready to compete at the highest levels of this league. Major...

That was easy....

Brent Grimes...my man. LOL!

The good news is, hopefully we wont have to see Nolan Carroll the rest of the game. He's beyond horrible.

Otherwise, they are completely dominating us in every facet.

The only area the Fins are winning is our Dline matchup. And its domination. Even when Flacco isn't getting sacked, his throwing lanes are jammed....

Completely agree with this...Go Fins. Lets whip those sorry Ravens and get to 4-1 at the bye. NEVER EVER did I think we would be in this position....

Then whats the problem? Why are you bashing me for saying what everyone else said? Agree with me. I am right.

Yes, you are correct. I was reprimanded. I was insulted and reciprocated...shame on me. I do not engage in that any longer. Look in this...

Since you challenge my objectivity, Cuchulainn, I ask you...Did we suck Monday night or not? I think we did. The coaches think we did. I imagine,...

Thanks, PhillyPhin. I intend to keep posting the same way, about the same things.

I agree with one part of your comment...the animosity shown by many here is absolutely needless. And its silly.

Exactly.

So, if I give kudos then I can't be critical of players that are chumps? LOL. I understand that you are going to be one who can't be objective....

I know the other night he fumbled after a long run, threw an INT in the final two minutes of the half, and threw behind is WRs several times. He...

I did give the team props after the win in Cleveland. Sorry you missed that.

I don't pay attention to who or who did not say we were horrible. I just know I am being taken to task for stating something even the coaches...

If you want to take joy in the Steelers and Giants record, thats fine. If you want to compare yourself to their fan base, even better. I couldn't...

If it makes you feel better to say "other teams played horribly sometimes too" is one thing. But to deny that we were horrible on Monday night is...

No doubt. People often times (most times, here) take on the poster vs the post. We are all Fins fans, but some cannot handle even the most...

I agree Rick66, but also I think its fair to say that his first draft was Parcells, perhaps the second one as well. I think Tannehill, and the 12...

Absolutely. But to "not ask the questions" is asinine.

ROFL...yes. Writing a song about irony without understanding it is quite ironic.

Completely agree with this.

Nothing in her song was ironic. "Rain on your wedding day, free ride that when you already paid, good advice that you just didn't take"... None...

I have not...is it a series?

Oh, I see. You are just giving me "what I deserve" because you disagree with me. Got it.

I do think Grimes is a chump. I am not sure RT is the answer....his performance on Monday night didn't do anything to convince me his is. And...

How is this even controversial? Of course the team is disappointed in RTs performance last week. Monday night was a big game, the first big game...

I posted after the first game (perhaps the second) that I was pleasantly surprised. Why do my thoughts about the team bother you more than the...

LOL...good stuff.

Coming from a "man" who can't communicate without the "F" word. Okay then.

Sure it is. You can honestly disagree, but that doesnt make my opinions less objective.

I am generally supportive of Ireland. IMO, he will be judged by Ryan Tannehill. And we know for RT to be successful the OL and RT are going to...

Oh, so retired Seamen can tell anyone they disagree with to F...off? Oh okay. That's good to know. It's not that YOU dont have class, it's that...

You can pretend anything you want, but I was 100% with my whole heart and mind with the Fins. I always am. I have been for a long, long time....

He's absolutely right.

Could be both. In the early 2000's, we weren't there, and we weren't close. But we made the playoffs a bunch of years in a row. But we weren't...

Wow...."F*** us" because we disagree with you? Stay classy, 68. Now then, "without the turnover, we'd be close". Yes, very true...But there WERE...

Oh no! GM Johnson has me on ignore. Now I must consider what to do with my life! :wink2:

"...people who have low expectations for a satisfying future may be more likely to live longer, healthier lives than those who see brighter days...

Completely agree about the "pessimist not making a you a realist" part. That's axiomatic. Being honest makes you a realist, and if you avoid...

Of course we all want to be elite. Are you putting words in peoples' mouths? We do have a young team...everyone knows that as well. One does...

Thats what I said; except I said, "Not ready for primetime." And you took me to task. Things that make you go, "Hmmmmmmm".

No one is giving up on anyone. Just continuing in our efforts to evaluate everyone; Ryan Tannehill included.

Not putting any words in anyone's mouth. Relaying the general consensus that the Saints are good. Its a given that we all want the Fins to be...

We had a chance to make the plays and didn't. Twice. Thats how it qualifies.

Exactly. I am not sure why its off limits..."but the Saints are good" They say. Yes, they are. But if you want to be elite, you have to beat the...

This is what I was getting at. Its not like we played well and lost. We lost all composure the first time we played a team that didn't fold....

Might be...might not be. We'll see. After watching the Saints completely dismantle us, I am reasonably certain this is not a playoff team. But...

If "learning from mistakes" is the goal, we're Golden. We'll be able to learn for three seasons from this fiasco. To me, after seeing how ill...

Baltimore has to be licking its chops. Defense not well prepared and not able to execute. Not a good combo. Full speed ahead to 8-8.

Now they'll be able to go 95 yards for a TD.

This team sucks.

Tannehill is not the answer at QB. Not sure what to do about it..but he's awful.

We traded up for the third pick in the draft...where the hell is he? Oh, probably running his mouth about never losing to Luck. Really lame ***?...

Fins Dline is the most overrated unit in the league. These guys are very very average.

Brent Grimes is a chump. Should have two INTs...but no. The Colts, taking advantage of complete inept QB play in Miami is now poised to take the...

Been very busy....not able to get on this past week. Let me say from the outset, as someone very critical of this team, they surprised me Sunday...

Hopefully they will hire you with all of your drafting prowess. They'd be crazy not to.

Wow...you wouldnt have drafted any busts...you should really send your resume to NFL owners. Most teams hit on about 60% of their draft picks. You...

Yep. This was a great thing for AJ Francis. If he can stick with them (and he should), he's guaranteed to be in the playoffs. With us, nothing is...

That we could have kept Martin and Francis if we had only kept two QBs...

Or a below avg third QB that will never see the field. LOL. Way to go, FO. Keep Devlin around and lose Francis. Ridiculous.

LOL..."can you tell us Barker, what were you guys doing that caused you to suck unmercifully in PS? Why was your blocking so inept?"

Kind of hard to believe at first glance. I think the more disappointing thing, there is a prevailing point of view (and I agree with it)...there...

When a team signs someone off the PS, its to go to the active roster.

I agree with you.

Good. Cannot give the ball up when you are on the bubble. He's outta here.

Perhaps your chapter is going to be the shortest in the story!

I was specifically talking about him "developing". There is no design to make him more than what someone above said...a guy to run the opposing...

ROFL...sorry, but this is truly funny. "Developing a QB"? Is that what you call this with Devlin? He's developing? Forgive me, but I find that...

For those of you who have no problem arguing with me, argue with this. He makes the point. No need to invest in Devlin.

Exactly.

Because there is no need to keep three QBs. He can't play until the fourth quarter anyway. Why waste a spot?

Something I've been wanting to say for a long time in this forum...."You are a smart fan".

Ok. Big deal. We go with two, sign a QB to the PS, and if our starter goes down, bring him up the next week. No need to waste a roster spot on a...

Have you seen Devlin play? There is no chance anyone picks him up. Besides, who cares? If he gets picked up, sign another loser off the street....

People are getting annoyed because in a "bubble thread" I want to keep two QBs and not three? Really? That's rich.

Explain it. Why would we keep three? The Patriots won't. The Colts didn't when Manning was in Indy. What good does three do you?

If we keep Devlin, our FO is bush league. Seriously.

Pat Devlin should not make the team. You don't get the option of a "developmental" QB. As you stated, "he makes mistakes...hes your third string...

I do not have an agenda and I was not being confrontational. I apologize if thats how i came off. I could have been defensive because the blowback...

Thanks. I appreciate the entitlement. Seriously. I am a huge Fins fan and I want them to win. I would love to be wrong. I've waited a long time...

And rightfully so. We finished with seven wins...Thats far from 13 wins.

Yet no one is threatened with being "banned" because they are "sunshine blowers". You can disagree with my statements. Fine. Literally speaking,...

Thanks for telling them to stop insulting me. Its unbecoming. I just want to make it clear, though; I don't expect anyone to agree with me. That...

Completely agree with this. LM hasn't done much to generate trust that he can carry the load...and he's by far the best of the bunch.

Its not negativity...its reality. If you find the reality negative, that's perfectly within your rights. Let me help you understand this... Its...

Oh, okay. I thought it was something I was supposed to know. Glad its not.

What is Shouright? Or who is Shouright? Why does that name have anything to do with me? Ok, Whatever. The D was solid, but not great. I dont...

ROFL...so now you know what I am thinking when I post? Thats interesting.

Then dont' lie and don't distort the truth.

Why will I be banned? I am a Fins fan. We disagree about how they look. You guys seem to think they are great. I don't. Does that make me a troll?

How is asking someone to call their mother a personal attack? Geez. Sensitive are we?

Who is shouright?

They are playing the Bucs. ROFL. For you guys that say "preseason doesnt matter" you sure do hang alot on the facts that support your pollyanna views.

Don't feel bad...the truth is usually too much for most people to take.

You want in on the bet? Mr. Clean already opted out, which I knew he probably would. Seems like he does nothing but yap. If you want in, lets do...

We are not very good. Thigpen sucks. Gray sucks. Thomas sucks. OLine, very bad. Defensive line, good. Linebackers Average. DBs, not good.

No, I was right. You are afraid to bet. Its good. Save your money. Because I was about to take 5-6 hundred dollars from you and donate to the ASPCA.

This is so entertaining. Seriously. LOL.

ROFL...nothing like a spat between pollyannas.

I don't agree. I was just making sure i understood the inane statement.

Ok then. Why does Mr Clean need to call me stupid? And everyone else is worried about my "opinion"?

Why does it bother you what someone else predicts, unless you think there is validity to their opinion? Hmmmmmmm....interesting.

Wins and losses are the only thing that matters. If you want to bet W/L, I am in. If not, fine.

Oh, okay. So unless i say everything is rosy then I am trolling? Hmmm...interesting.

Oh, you disagree with me so you insult me? Thats cool.

Yet you don't deal with the facts...I do. I tell the truth, whether its enjoyable or not. Do you enjoy lying?

You just said it...do you want me to say it? Ok...wait for it...there was a TD and the defense held them to 63 first half total yards.

You wanna put $100. per game to charity? I bet we lose more than we win...you think otherwise, great way to make money for your favorite charity....

Except the Pats have shown over the last decade they cannot be judged by preseason. They occasionally put up a stinker in preseason...everyone...

yes, thats because its true.

Probably.

Hell no. I am not paying money to watch this crap.

Yes. Very much so.

Not trolling. Just watching the game and commenting.

Why does it bother you that realists watch the game?

or 4-12 or 5-11.

Why would I turn it off?

If you dont know who that is, you should watch more college football. He's the good news for the Fins this year.

Good news is...Not many Fins fans had to endure this in person. The stands are empty...as they should be for this team. I hope no one shows up at...

Oline sucks, Punt coverage sucks, punt returns--ROFL--seriously? This is a bad football team. Get rid of every high priced player and stock up on...

Tannehill didn't hit a WR in stride all night. He's got a LOONNNGGGGG way to go. This is going to be a long season for Fins fans. Good news...

We can make a bet, if you would like. I'll back my prediction up.

Brent Grimes is getting abused.

ROFL at Thigpen. Two fumbled punts. He sucks.

ROFLMAO. This team is what I thought they were... substandard punk-****! They STILL suck. Hello 5-11.

If 8-8 isn't good enough, I am afraid you are going to be SERIOUSLY disappointed this year. Its not depth at OL...its the starters at OL. That...

The goal is to build a winning program. Managing the cap is essential to that effort. Either we trust the people charged with that responsibility...

Easy fix. Keep two QBs. No one is going to sign Devlin. Cut him and tell him to stay in shape, and if disaster strikes, we give him a call. I'll...

It would be more intense if the games were meaningful. We haven't beaten them enough to deny them any hardware, so there is more pity for us from...

Perhaps...and if thats the case, then we'll have to go on faith that we'll be able to execute those things we didn't work ion in PS games.

Fair points. Hope thats the case.

I hope like hell you are right. I am concerned that our OLine will not be able to hold up against sophisticated blitz packages and that RT will...

I think "Prospects for 2013" are a down arrow. I have seen nothing on the field that makes me believe this team wins more than we lose. Cleveland,...

If the season opened tonight, it would be a beat down...but thankfully for us the season does not start tonight and we have time to get the...

I don't think this is that far fetched. Our Oline is a mess. Our biggest FA expenditures (WR) are totally contingent on having time to throw. I...

I wouldn't get rid of what MIGHT be your best QB to start developing a young one. Until Tannehill breaks out, you keep Moore around. Now, how long...

This! Football is a team chemistry sport, more than others. They are a FAR better team...even if we may have marginally better talent at a few...

I agree with this...Flacco is elite, IMO. I disagree with the OP who claims he is not.

I agree with this. We cannot make him what he is not...we have to deal with the talents he brings.

If we dont get the protection figured out, the only one dreaming is going to be the QB in a Concussed state. The number one priority in a passing...

I have changed my expectations...and I caveated that change by saying "its only preseason, and thats all we have to go on"...If we shouldnt' make...

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats my point. I am being "negative nancy" now, and it "sucks". He was being objectively thoughtful...

There is throwing and catching...the instinctive part of the offense of which you speak...but to fully integrate MW into this offense's game plan,...

Although, more than likely he's not throwing to him because he has not been afforded the protection required to take a seven step drop and set his...

So wait, let me get this straight. My post was a "negative Nancy determination after two PS games"; check that, after 2 1/2 weeks of camp and two...

I disagree. There has been nothing from our starting offensive unit that leads a logical thinker to believe this is more than a 7 win team....

Not much good. No first downs on the first three offensive drives. Open JAX WRs...not every QB will suck as bad as Gabbert. The Oline in Miami is...

Dion Jordan was the brightest spot, IMO, for the Fins last night. Its easy to get overshadowed with so much uninspired and unimpressive play, but...

Oh, okay. So its not the reaction, its the OVER reaction? Got it. And you of course, get to determine what is an appropriate action and what is an...

Two things...hyperbole earns your disgust. Substandard play does not?

You obviously missed my point. So, I'll leave it at that.

Sure. But you guys act like its totally legitimate to pretend the game is irrelevant...a game that did happen, with players that will be on the...

ROFL...this is awesome. Not happy with the Fins last night? Blame a forum poster. They are the reason the RB fumbles, the WR tips passes that turn...

Or....the Fins are going to win the Super Bowl...and go commit mass suicide if you disagree with that!

Totally agree, based on this sample. Nothing made me feel good about this team. I am firmly now in the 7-9 camp.

Exactly. And then it'll be, "oh, its just one game". "Its only Ryan's first year with weapons", "the Oline couldn't get", "rookies in the...

100% Miller.

Wow. This is unbelievable. One person advocates suicide for those who disagree and others "thank" him for it. Is this okay? Because if it is, I...

Hmmmm...You are now advocating "mass suicide" by people expressing disappointment by this team? I hinted that an argument by go "over a poster's...

I am aware of this. Which first stringers looked good to you? The Oline? Lamar Miller? Ryan Tannehill? I assume that we will have RY, LM, and and...

No. I evaluate performances. You may call them "meaningless" or whatever. I only go by what happens in the game. If you want to sugarcoat it,...

Lamar Miller isn't going to get playing time? Ryan Tannehill isn't going to get playing time? What about Jon Martin? Dallas Thomas?

The Dolphins performance tonight was substandard in all phases of the game. Offense was horrible, Defense wasn't good, STs nothing special. This...

Putrid half of football.

This is silly anyway...The Dolphins could still win this game, and it wouldnt change my thoughts of this game. Its not about whether you win or...

When were we undefeated in Preseason?

No. Actually, this is just ANOTHER year that I have watched preseason, they suck, and I am told it doesnt mean anything. Right. Forgive me for...

True...he does not set the edge.

I share with those talking up Jordan...he looks like hes the real deal. However, its interesting. Its fair to comment on him playing well, but...

Right...you have so much perspective. I am sorry, I was just commenting on the game, not things I haven't seen yet that I "hope" will happen....

True.

yes, I was the problem tonight. Sorry. I'll play better. ROFL.

Thank God the first quarter is over. That was painful.

He can't be worse than Moore...what a loser.

Unbelievable how bad this offense is. Its stunning.

This OL couldnt block their mother.

Is Lamar Miller not a starter? Is Tannehill not a starter? Ok.

ROFL...their DLine is hitting our QB so hard, they are hurting themselves. Maybe that needs to be our strategy.

Exactly.

Ok...I'll be here in two years and we'll see whose right.

PR doesnt catch short punts...have they even been at camp at all? Unless this team makes huge improvments soon...it is going to lose ten games...

ROFLMAO at you, man. Thats so funny.

I dont think we should. QB can't throw even when he has time. We havent made any progress. We'll be starting over in two years...

This could not have started much worse for Miami. Good thing this is a throw away game..because they look more like an expansion team than they do...

ROFL at this offense. Besides C and LG...everyone sucks.

mcnutt sucks. That was horrible.

Too bad he can't hold on to the football.

After two offensive plays, its the same old sorry crap....geez.

Lamar Miller...obviously not ready for prime time. You gotta hold on to the ball--Preseason, regular season, post season...you have to hold the...

Ten wins...Anything else we are treading water, still not relevant in the AFC. We dont have to win the Div every year, but we need to be threat....

I mentioned Onyenekwu when we signed him, being that I am originally from Lafayette myself. Always good to see a Ragin Cajun do well. I kept up...

Good points.

If you say thats what happened, then I am sure it happened exactly that way. I appreciate your candor and professionalism.

Yes sir! I know how to bow down when told.

No excuses, sir. I was obviously way off base. Its been pointed out here by well established posters that W/L do not affect attendance. I...

Its been made abundantly clear to me by the mods that I am not to question your logic. So, ok. Great points. I appreciate the explanations I do...

Fair points, all. Except you MUST see the difference between Cleveland and KC and Miami. Too ignore the demographics, history, etc, is to not...

LOL...yeah, okay, riiiight. "We have a team that has had 4 straight losing seasons and not a playoff win in over a decade...the fans must be...

You had to explain it...ROFL!

Doesn't surprise me in the least that you would "LMAO" at the most relevant aspect of the fan experience and attendance. You try so hard to see...

Great point. The best way to improve the culture is to start winning. In that regard, MD was irrelevant.

The only thing wrong with the fan experience in Miami is the result of the game. Thats it. This post though is as bizarre as the rest of your...

Ironic that you should mention the word "fail".

Uh, maybe. But who is hurting for Mike Dee? No one.

ROFLMAO. Unbelievable.

THANK YOU LARRY!!!!! All of this other nonsense is just that!

Not surprisingly...when your team loses, revenues drop. Miami isnt a city that can support a losing franchise. Far too many other interests in...

ROFLMAO. This is comical. Let me make this as simple as I can for you...the national reputation of a franchise is made on Sundays in football...

Voice of reason!

LOL...no they aren't. The national embarrassment is the record since Dave Wannstedt was coach. This other crap is meaninginless. Anyone focusing...

He specifically omitted five, but touche. And yes, the performance of the team "spearheads" every facet of the franchise. If this team had the...

Exactly. And 1, 2, and 5 would be irrelvant if we were in the playoffs every year.

The carpet, the song, the Tebow day would mean nothing if we were winning. The attendance and ancillary revenues would all be up if we were...

I understand the question and I am not trying to be a "smart a**" but my answer never changes....the game I most want to win is ALWAYS the next...

Well said.

To the extent that Ballard makes them more dangerous, it is solely in the run game. And they are a good running team. What made the Pats so...

She's friends with Tim Tebow? :wink2:

No..hes from Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin Cajuns.

This kid is a stud. He played CFB in my hometown. He's going to make it in the NFL...somewhere.

Its a thankless job actually making the pick. All of us get to "freely" speculate and second guess with no historical consequences. The main thing...

Not at all saying she isnt qualified to be a GM, but "negotiating" contracts is only one part of the equation. Its a very narrow focus. Being the...

Thanks for all the good comments. Good times to be a Fins fan.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. We'll see how it rolls.

Dont get me wrong...I am not criticizing teams for doing it. Its their right, and its their looking out for their interest. Just as a player...

In the NFL, contracts are uni-lateral. Neither side is bound by them if one side disagrees. Teams cut players all the time when players...

This! I think the weapons we need are on the team. I really like R Matthews and I think Binns and Tyms can play. I dont know anything about...

I think this is exactly right.

Completely agree. To suggest otherwise is nonsense.

What would you prefer his goal be? 55 carries and 250 yards? High expectations are nothing to be leery of. I think many of you fans are suffering...

ROFL. Oh, okay.

So they should base their statements on what "non Dolphins fans" think? I think thats weak.

exactly!

What is "emotional ammo"? Does it affect how teams play?

Exactly.

Except, that is not what he said. He said its his "GOAL" to break the record. What else do you want him to say? I hope I can score one td this...

Arizona?

I would go back to rooting only for the hometown Saints. It would be a shame though..some of us have been fans of this storied franchise for over...

If they are only in shorts, then all he can do is stand out in shorts. It may or may not translate to pads, but its better than a report of "third...

Excellent points. I think we put him in the slot and let him battle his way through.
