I don't really see an issue with what they did. They were pretending to be Brandon Marshall and after last seasons fiasco with Marshall yelling at Henne and Henne not doing anything about it, they need to know who will speak up and who won't.

 

I don't know and I don't really care, to be honest. They are doing their job.

 

jake long, karlos dansby, davone bess, brian hartline, anthony fasano, chris clemmons, vontae davis, sean smith, cam wake, koa misi, dan carpentar, lousaka polite, richard incognito....................

Anything else?

 

And? They've had success too, you know. Easy to pick out the screw ups.

They are doing their job in the draft process.

 

It is rather bizarre.A coach simulating a diva receiver in a non action situation is nonsense IMO.

 

The Miami Dolphins are not the only team to miss on picks in the 2008 and 2009 drafts. Pat White was a monumentally stupid pick. Merling was a head-scratcher, but considering everyone had him going to Washington at 18 that year, it was decent value at the time. Turner… you could see the logic, bring in a big guy and coach him up. His busting probably contributed to our trading for Marshall, which is one hell of a silver lining.

Alen’s right. The guys who make the big bucks are doing their job. I agree it’s strange that we only hear about this stuff happening with the Dolphins, but part of that is likely a media template. Something happens, look for events that reconfirm the perception generated by the initial something. The something in this case is Jeff Ireland asking Dez Bryant if his mother was a whore.

Frankly, I think it’s more bizarre that there’s a coach out there who’s worried about Andy Dalton specifically because of his hair color.

 

I am saying they are doing their job in the draft process. I am not saying I have blind faith in them, I am not saying they suck, I am not complaining about Atlanta doing well - which they seem to be tied to Miami for whatever reason.

 

more factors go into 7-9 than the players. Coaches, bad play calling. Also, guess how many superbowls the falcons have........as many as the dolphins. And just as quick as you can turn around from 4 wins to 13, you can go from 13 to 6. Alot of parody in the nfl.

 

Parody or parity?

AIF.

 

Why do you assume it’s the organization leaking this? Do you think the Dolphins leaked the Dez Bryant/Jeff Ireland question? Of course they didn’t. It’s the players telling their friends and/or agents, and word percolating to the media from there.

 

Since when do people care about their thoughts? The Jets shouldn't be laughing at anyone when their coach is sticking peoples feet in his cakehole while the Patriots still have the camera hanging over their heads.

 

I’m going to start a rumor that Bill Belichick taped Rex Ryan taping Belichick’s feet.

 

And that's based off of? Lets not project stuff here because if we are, Jake Long will probably enter the Hall of Fame and be one of the best LT's to ever play, keeping his QB's off their ***.

...and if that doesn't matter, then ask Matthew Stafford how his shoulder feels this morning.

 

Call me crazy but I think it was pretty savvy on the part of Da Balls. Unconventional? Sure. But, it may have been very telling. I'm not embarrassed by it at all. Even the Dez Bryant line of questioning looks pretty smart in retrospect, IMO.

Obviously, these guys value good character and leadership qualities very highly. As well they should IMO. So, like I said...I got no problem with it.

 

WTF?

Dalton should have looked at him and said.."I am not throwing you the ball you moron, you are the offensive coordinator."

 

Btw, if this team selected Matt Ryan, people would be saying how average he is and how we passed on a 2 time pro bowl left tackle all the while complaining about Vernon Carey at that position when they didn't even like him at RT this past season.

 

That's why it's a template.

 

Their fans didn't. Have you seen either teams fans? Delusional and homers.

 

I'm thinking this thread should be moved to the rant section.

This issue is not an issue at all. It's just something else for disgruntled, immediate gratification types to cry and moan over.

Daboll is the OC for the Miami Dolphins. He's acting like an OC and he's doing things DIFFERENTLY. Isn't that what everybody was hoping for from him? Think outside of the box? He's trying to put a QB, who may be drafted by the Dolphins, into stressful situations in order to see how he handles them. Is that not a good idea? Should he just ****ing serve tea and crumpets to potential draftees? Maybe he should make sweet, sweet love to them in order to find out what type of personality/leadership/charisma/talent they have??

WTF is wrong with some of you people?

 

Every single one we've scored he's helped produce?

Our offense is pretty damn good with him in, I would say. It would be good as well, assuming you have someone to keep him upright.

Really? Would you care to fix our interior OL then and while you're at it, give our HC and his staff some pointers?

I wish people would stop being bitter about not having Matt Ryan on this team.

 

Or maybe you just notice it more because you are a dolphin fan...?

 

I don't really see how I said any of the bold.

And yes, I'm the silly one, not the thread starter.

 

Yes Jet fans are having more fun being fans than us right now. But we aren't inbreds, so we have that going for us still. And always will.

 

god if only the self proclaimed experts ran this team we'd have successive undefeated seasons.

god forbid they take situ fron a frustrating season and use it to see how a candidate handles it unprepared, thats is ridiculously stupid. i mean fortune 500 companies do it to their interviewees so that must be stupid

 

The last time a Miami Dolphins head coach utilized business managerial techniques, he was fired after going 1-15.
