They were serious when they said this team was willing to start from scratch. We have less talent than an expansion team. In fact the roster at the beginning of the offseason looked like Super Bowl contenders compared to this team now! I wonder if we could beat a college team or elite HIgh School team right now??

For the first time, I literally HATE all the moves we are making and hope Flores and Grier are somehow forced to retire. What a ****ing bunch of clowns. Flores and Grier are disgusting pieces of human **** that will ruin this team.

I was a big Vincent Taylor fan, but he's not a fit for this scheme and they gave him every opportunity.
He spent all pre-season playing against 3rd string talent to try and let him show that he had some opportunity for growth in this defense, and he didn't show it. He's a straight-ahead 1-gap player, he didn't seem to have the balance to play NT or the flexibility to handle the stunts and exchanges in B-gap work. They made him basically the last cut, and let guys go who outperformed him this pre-season vs. better levels of competion(Spence, Washington, Mbu).
You can talk about modifying the scheme to fit the player, but the costs there are real- are you going to work Davon Godchaux to death as the only NT? Are you going to modify the roles of your young ILBs away from what they do best(and you want them to do) to make up for the lack of 2-gap play? Are you going to release Ledbetter, who showed real upside?MrClean, Irishman, Surfs Up 99 and 1 other person like this. -

Breaking: Dolphins cut fans!
In a surprise move, the Miami Dolphins this morning released all of their fans.
I'm going to try out for a Cleveland Browns forum on Wednesday and if that doesn't work out, I'm due to talk to Raiders Nation on Friday. Wish me luck guys... :sad:Surfs Up 99 and Irishman like this. -
Also, it goes back to the Patriots mantra, if you can't do your job, you can't work within the scheme and you can't get on the field due to niggling injuries/lack of conditioning, you don't have a place. It's a bit of a shock for us, as over the last 4 or 5 coaching changes, reputation has counted more than anything (even if you haven't earned it on the field) and we have consistently put square pegs in round holes.

The browns are still the browns and will always be the browns.. odell doesnt change that. -
I've tried watching some other teams but it's just not the same. My wife's family are Packers fans, and I can respect a lot of what they've done, and I don't mind the Cowboys or Eagles either, but regardless, they're not the Dolphins.
I'm sure I'll watch some other games this season, but I'm going to be rooting for the Phins!
Fins up!
