    Thanks ATVZ!

    Surprised it took him this long to realize that to be honest but I am glad that he did realize it and he could let Allen play. I want to see him out there against WR's. However, I wonder how Allen uses his backpedal. I didn't watch him in college and I always thought that he was a good fit at Safety when he came here because he was good at going downhill. So that will be something to watch.

    As far as ticket sales go, its all about momentum, if they wanted a home field advantage, beating the texans would of been incredible in terms of momentum and fanbase confidence, its the main reason why i have been giving them a hard time for comin out a litlle flat, recognizing the moment and all of the momentum they built up, they did'nt.

    They could of thought a little ahead and how electric that stadium would of been against the ravens if the handled their business against the texans.

    You're right, but quite a few writers have pointed out that the Dolphins have been really fun to watch the past three games. Hope that translates into more fan support.

    Quite frankly, Jason Allen should have been STARTING, let alone getting playing time.

    Personally, I think this translates into: Jason Allen - First Round Special Teams Ace

    Although I hope I'm wrong.

    It'd be nice to see Jason Allen get some time out there, we need to play him to see if its worth keeping him around or not. I think its safe to say, at least im hoping its safe to say... but i think our secondary will get its turn in rebuilding mode this offseason... so lets see what we've got in this guy. He was a promising pick, so lets see if we can turn him into something this year.

    I think London is gonna end up being special....


    Loved the Long quote about being a man (30) and he's only 22 in both maturity and intelligence....tells me this administration is spot on in judging talent....

    Got a great feeling about the direction this team is heading....and I love Coach Sparano. I think after all is said and done...Ill end up saying I would have taken the bad years with Wanny, Saban, and Cam....because in the end we ended up with a coach almost as beloved as Shula. Theres just something about Sparano that makes you believe in him...and you can definatley tell the team believes in him.

    Just noticed Henning's backhanded compliment for Chad P:

    Really rigidly and side shuffles too much. Horrible backpedal technique. Best bet for him is to jam the WR and then try to run with him.

    Ah, thanks. That's why we should have kept him at Safety then. I think he's a better player going downhill as I said in my first post.

    If he suggested otherwise he'd be accused of being senile! Chad can't make a deep throw. Look at the wildcat/flea flicker to Cobbs. Only when he's that wide open can Penny make that throw, and even then Cobbs still had to hold up :lol:
