If that 4th quarter was an 'angry' performance I think I'd like to see the team coming out happy from now on.
Chad Henne was pretty inaccurate today for the most part. We need accuracy, especially since we have no deep threat.

A positive is that Henning called a good first drive?
What about play action on 3rd and 13 when we were way down late in the football game.
That was a positive..... Positively fuggin' insane.
Henning might be a smart guy at the nursing home but that's about it.

Henne played well ? 3 int and 2 fumbles ? Jay Fielder where are you ?

Sorry, don't see much too positive about it. Moreover, I am getting concerned that Henne is not developing like he should. It seems that he takes too long to make his decision on where to go with the ball and by the time he does, the play is gone. Sometimes he still locks on to a given receiver and most of the time I don't like his ball position/accuracy. He doesn't seem to hit his receivers with a pass that allows them to run after the catch (most of the time) and the pick on the pass to Marshall was too high. I am starting to believe he is not ready and we need to look elsewhere.
Thanks for a upbeat thread! I agree we had alot of weakness today, but this glass is still half full also. Disappointing yes end of the world Nah
Sorry most people are so angry or rude that they couldnt read your whole post, and abide your wish that this is a positive thread.
EDIT: sorry MY BAD most people are giving critisism of henne not bashing so i'll take that back. But I hope that we can discuss some of the postives here not be all negative. IM HEATED TOO LOL
:hi5:
Why does someone always post a positive posting about a loss? It makes it sound like your trying to say were right there just a few more little things. This team is a mess on all three teams we got major holes.
There isnt a silver lining right now. We S-U-C-K. We cant run, we cant get touchdowns, we throw picks every game, Our special teams play is less than stellar and our coach gets out coached quite often. I think three years into the Sparano deal hes about a 50/50 coach don't think it will get much better honestly.
henne isn't a leader he doesn't inspire the team I don't see the drive to win or the passion in his game at all. In fact he was laughing on the sideline in the fourth down by two scores. Would Marino, Elway, Manning, or even Brees do that?
We will finish 3rd in the division once again. Something on this team stinks and the head coach has to take ownership of it.

No, but brady does it all the time and he has more rings than all of them.
man, it really wasn't that long ago that we were 0-8 at this point in the season. to be 4-4 after what honestly seemed like the harshest 8 game stretch to open a season that we've ever had recently, im okay with it.
the silver lining is that we're not 0-8.
65% completion percentage?
We need 75% if we want to get some TDs.
I am going to have Emeril Lagassi cook me a pile of ****, surely it must taste good coming from him!
No injuries, hopefully this leads to some changes on offense, 10 pts?
Something has to give, I cannot imagine Sparano will put up with this, we are at the half way point of the season, we have yet to score 25 pts in a single game.

there were 0 positives from todays loss. ZERO!!!!! we got it handed to us in every way shape or form, and we flat out stunk. we couldnt tackle. we couldnt stop ray rice for our lives, and we looked worse than a jv high school football team on offense. we basically ruined our playoff hopes, although im not giving up, we r in major ****.
bottom line. THERE ARE NO POSITIVES FROM TODAY. NONE!!!!!!!

This will be a brutal week of practice for the Dolphins. Playing the Titans will seem like a vacation after this week. I think the defense will get chewed out something awful this week after that tackling display. And I think Henne is going to get some chewing too

Henne should be benched Adamp.
I know I'm being borderline obnoxious about it, I really do believe that to be what should happen, he is killing our playoff chances, he is killing the offense, he is playing really bad football.
As for the D, Nolan is a pro, he'll figure it out.
we lost, their r no positives. we know cam wake ****ing rocks. today though, we lost a game which now has us in a monster whole in order to make the playoffs.
henne looked awful, our coaching sucks, our defense cant tackle, and ray rice it seemed was gaining 80 yds after every catch. awful showing.
team grade today= F. i felt like i was going through a slow death watching them today.
lets see what he looks like when the easy part of our schedule comes. The steelers and jets are the number 1 and 2 defense in the league. packers are 4th. ravens are 7th. the 2nd half should be a repeat of 2008 where we steamroll the league.
Why? So he can pad his stats?
You have to beat the Elite teams too Adamp.
well if we go 6-2 the 2nd half, he should have a chance at redemption
Adamp, ask yourself, why have we not scored in the redzone this season?
Accident? Lack of talent?
If we manage to go 6-2, it will not be due to Chad Henne, he will be on the bench, at this point Thigpen is looking like a better option.
Henne has done nothing to justify any confidence in him, after his 4 game 300 yd streak last yr, he has been rather poor.
i see no positives. this was a depressing loss. its a bit freeing in the sense that i no longer have to stress about the team the way i have been. they arent making the playoffs.
the ravens really have a way of acting as a reality check. they have done it twice in the playoffs and now today. each time were clear signals that the QB of the team (jay, penny, henne) was not good enough to get it done. i have no doubt we will be drafting a QB.

maybe not. a new regime could decide to rework the kid. this regime knows their futures are tied to henne. something needs to change.

Actually, we were 2-4 in 2008 when Penne was QB. Then the Bills, Raiders, Rams, 49ers, Seahawks, Chiefs, Broncos etc. came along to save our season. Penne looked over matched both times he played against the Ravens in 08, and he was 0-3 in 2009 before he got hurt. Just saying.
Soooo, Mike Nolan, with his 21+ years of experience gets a pass, but Henne (also a "pro") is a bust after 21 starts? Strange.
Not sure what criteria you're basing the idea of Penne as starter on, but even mentioning Thigpen as a possible upgrade makes it hard to take you seriously. Just sayin.
