In the last 4 games with NE, we have either been down 14-0 in the first or 19-0 at halftime. This is the trend that needs to stop. I implore Adam Gase to go back and look at the film this week from these games. Because they matter, it's part of a similar trend. Miami needs to obviously be different and script different for the 1st quarter. Two weeks ago, it was a fake punt. But it's also stopping them on 3rd and long, because they choose to play zone and not dial up pressure. On offense, eliminate the bonehead play calling. Know your down and distance vs this team, avoid 3rd and long, and that means being better on 2nd down, even if you failed 1st down. Cover the TE, shadow the backs out of the backfield and understand gap assignments to stop the gashing of the run.

We say it every time we play them but for some reason we just don’t play man up on their receivers and jam..belicek teaches the receivers how to defeat zone coverage..
We’ve been a poor third down conversion team for years..have wished for the qbs to run for a few on third downs but that hasn’t happened since david woodley was playing.
They’re without their big monkey but I expect Dwayne Allen to have a big game.. not sure why he hasn’t popped for them, I like him as a player ..
Cooks scares the crap out of me.. -

I don’t think the slot is best for him because I feel the slot demands real good hands because of the reactionary time and the routes that accompany it, and outside it’s a bit easier..
In last weeks game I saw a player on returns looking at the field differently then he’s ever done, in college and in the pros it’s been all about him just outjuking people to gain yardage, this was a predictable trait when he was coming out, on Sunday I saw a real return pro cutting up the field into sections and using angles and speed to gain the yardage..that’s how you do it man. -

Do agree on KO's - stop taking the ball out, you are hurting field position. Take the 25 every time. Not necessarily an issue specific to us as well ... but stop fielding punts inside the 10 too.

Side note, as mentioned re Jakeem Grant... I think he's been better the last two weeks on returns. Both on punt and KO. -

I haven’t seen issues with drops this year..he’s gotten better.dolphin25 and Dol-Fan Dupree like this. -

On a related note, does anyone else find it funny that a team tried so hard to get a patent for 19-0 and perfect season without actually doing either in their history?:tongue2: -

Yes you are

I'm saying Parker got depressed when he and his girl broke up. I'm saying he's soft. I'm saying you were wrong when you said these things never happened.
Instead of being a man, and admitting you were wrong, you keep doubling down on being wrong and want to mischaracterize what i was saying and argue because you seem to have this fetish for being absurd. -
It is looking more and more like he won't develop, but I would understand if they give him one more year (he's cheap right now) to play with RT throwing him the ball. However, I wouldn't call him a bust from the jump. -

Why am I being held responsible for your utter lack of reading comprehension?
Do you or do you not understand the difference between the following:
- Parker is playing bad and it is his girlfriend's fault
- Parker is playing bad because he's depressed he broke up with his girlfriend
Surely, even you, can tell the difference between these two concepts. -
