if he continues to play, let alone not cut, Nee nee na na na na nu nu.

I've been defending Philbin and attacking Ireland but even if Ireland refuses to cut him, why does Philbin play him?

Seriously? You are implying Philbin is a bad coach because he sometimes plays his 5th WR?

I know this Nenenu cat isn't that great, but he is way down on the depth chart, and the team isn't exactly stacked at WR. I suppose we could call Chad up - that is if his bail terms allow him leaving the state for away games...

Miami Dolphins. Always Perfect.

He has been the starting WR for the last two weeks.

The only WR's we have on this team to speak of at this point are Hartline and Bess, as soon as someone else shows up, then I will admit we have more on the roster...They need to stop stalling and give my boy Rishard Mathews a few snaps... what does it hurt, we only have 2 on the field anyways and one is playing the slot..lol

Bess is a stud. I'd love to see him play like a normal WR and not in the slot. He had that guy faked out of his jock yesterday on the PI call. He cannot be covered.

yeah...care to share?

LOL. No, Dude. You need to share. Funny thing about people who are blitzed out on drugs, they think the rest of the world is high and they are normal. Anybody who thinks Nee Nee Na Na Na Na Nu Nu is a great receiver, like you eesti, is really trapped in the hypothetical I just described.

Naanee? Not sure what you're talking about. I think he sucks. Maybe you are referring to the sarcastic comment I made about him.

I'm talking about your vision of Ireland deciding who plays and starts.

You know, I'm no fan of Ireland, though I don't loathe him like some. He certainly has made his share of boneheaded moves, but let's also, in all fairness, point out that he's made some decent moves as well. A lot of people were critical of trading for Reggie Bush when that went down (I was somewhat skeptical myself). That turned out to be a damn good move. Reggie is light years better than I would have imagined he'd be. Good role model for the younger players by working his butt off after practice etc. I wanted to make the trade for Kyle Orton but have to admit I was wrong. I wanted to sign Flynn (who got beat out by a 5'11" third round pick). I know it's only two games, but Mike Pouncey is playing like an all pro. Like I said, Ireland's made a lot of mistakes, but I for one will admit that it could be worse. We could have Carl Peterson making the player personnel decisions. The stench of Peterson is still clinging to Kansas City years later.

GOOD POINT.

I bet New Orleans would love to have Reggie back right now. Assuming they could figure out how to use him as something other than a slot WR.

SheNeNe won't be on this team in 2 weeks

________________________________________________________
The beatings will continue until morale improves.

I have defended Ireland against attacks on him picking Bush, Long, Pouncey, etc. But just because a guy makes about 10% or 20% good moves, does not excuse the 80%. RT was a gamble at best that might turn out very good (and it's leaning that way) but might have blown up in his face.

But the point is still the 80%.

But eesti, I do think Ireland is responsible for Nee Nee not getting cut and one thing is for sure, it doesn't seem like Philbin who would be incompetent enough to have this guy as the starting receiver.

I may be wrong. But I do think Ireland has an extraordinary influence on this team and its operation and I think the extent of that influence might explain why Harbaugh said, "Thanks, but no thanks."

That was one of my favorite martin lawrence caracters.

I'm no Ireland apologist. I just think that the vitriol spewed at him is disproportionate to what he's done. For example, Ireland is in no way as bad an evaluator of talent than Dave Wannstedt. That point can be made effectively in five words: "Jamar Fletcher and Eddie Moore." Honestly, I think a lot of what we have experienced in Miami is the long term effect of having had that mustached imbecile destroying our roster for five years. Maybe the reason I'm not as negative about Ireland is that compared to Wannstedt, Ireland seems like Albert Einstein.

Albert Einstein?

The dude was a blatant plagiarist and didn't understand his "own equations."
Do some research on your own and find the facts if they interest you...

Nikola Tesla was a TRUE genius and not a fabricated fraud like Einstein. LOL.

Quoting CC. Is that "the best that you can do"?

Mine too, and I was wondering how long it'd take for someone to call him that in a post.

kudos btw to Chyren for reminding me of that OLD Dickie Do and the Don'ts song that I'd forgotten all about.

On a side note Brian Hartline has 20 targets over the last two weeks. He's PFW's suggestion for a FA pickup.

Simple....there is no one that is better that is presently on the roster. If our young guys would step up, then maybe there would be a change. Philbin has already shown he isn't afraid to make changes.

Armstrong gets healthy and NaNa is replaced.

Had pictures. I like that. But I don't remember Nee Nee even doing well on Hard Knocks.

Look back on the posts during early camp, and there were tons of articles saying he was impressing the coaches.

- Then when the preseason started, and the lights came on he laid an egg with drops everywhere.

- Lots of press prior though how he was doing well in practice.

Maybe Tannehill will figure it out, and stop throwing to him.

- He needs to go

he already has stopped throwing to him for the most part. not many targets

I'm not in Miami, PhinJim. Out here in LA probably would not have been able to see those articles.

Well, it was Naanee who blocked three Texans on Thigpen's punt return for a TD, really being the guy who sprung the play open. In week one, Bess, Hartline, and Armstrong all had more snaps on offense than Naanee. And Naanee barely played on offense this week. Right now, he is a special teams guy. And a good one.

But isn't he a starting WR?

Under that theory, Thigpen should be a starter as well.
