Anderson has the perfect combination of size (6-4, 250) and speed to be an effective 3-4 outside linebacker. He also continues to make mistakes at an alarming rate for a regime that doesn’t seem to have a high level of tolerance for them.
Last Sunday, officials flagged Anderson for a holding during a Dolphins’ return for the third straight game, including a call that negated 100-yard return by Ted Ginn Jr. against Seattle.
Anderson, 26, now leads the Dolphins with five penalties,
byroanadminEverytime I see a penalty on the return, I know who committed it. :(
anlgpNew MemberMaybe if they start fining him for every penalty he'd stop.
"A man's suffering is similar to the behavior of gas. If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus, suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering great or little. Therefore, the "size" of human suffering is absolutely relative." - Viktor Frankl
To be honest, I figured Anderson was going to get cut after he had the holding penalty that negated Ginn's 100 yard return. That was his second week in a row with a holding penalty on special teams and I figured he was a goner. So much for what I know.

Thats sad but true. Get rid of him. Its not worth it too have him if he commits all those penalties

Another penalty or two and he's going to be deep on the bench.

PhinsRockluxury_boxThey need to fine his butt big time for every penalty, bench him for a couple games and get the message across. Somebody call Tony and tell him, I lost his number. :lol:
