I know on the two losses where the kicker missed the winning field goal ..........matt moore would had probably suited up and kicked the two winning field goals...

Therefore we would had won those 2 games as well.


We could easily be 6-2 with ryan tannehill if carpenter doesnt grow a brain fart and makes the 2 winning field goals....

The real deal put him in a position to win the game.

If we had drafted Matt Ryan like we should have instead of Jake Long this thread wouldn't even exist.

True, but then we'd be complaining that Ross should have fired Sparano in the offseason.

I'll just assume you didn't read what was written.

The comment was that he throws a lot of INT's "under pressure". That was a relevant point because our O-line is giving up a lot of pressure these days.

Moore has started 25 games in the NFL and played in parts of 16 others. He's thrown 26 picks.

In college he started 24 games and threw 26 picks.

Why? was he going to kick also?

Or Aaron Rodgers instead of Ronnie Brown....and Saban would still be our head coach.

RT had two great chances to prove he was a winner. Down by three, near midfield twice in the final four minutes. Both times he chocked.

Not saying the loss wasn't a team effort, and we did get beaten by a better team.

But look at those last two series for Tannehill. He was awful. Off target and late every play. The play calling was there, RT was rolling out, the receivers were open. The passes were off.

I don't care what the QB can do in the first 3 quarters between the 20s. I want to see that the QB does in the red zone and at the end of the game. So far, it isn't much.

------------------------------------------------------------

Miami Dolphins. Always Perfect.

"But look at those last two series for Tannehill. He was awful. Off target and late every play."

I did not watch the game, but saw the last 5 minutes since it interrupted the game broadcast. The line was terrible. He appeared to throw those passes with the wall of meat in colts uniforms coming at him. Jake Long sucks now.....he's gotta go

The line play was bad all game. But Tannehill was billed as a QB with great mobility and athleticism. So far, I haven't seen it. Obviously, he doesn't know how to move around IN the pocket so he better learn how to move OUT of the pocket and scramble to extend plays.

Not sure what you've been watching but he's drawn praise from just about everyone for his ability to move in the pocket.

Its true he hasn't run much but I'd rather hge develop as a passer this year more than a runner.

Even so...he wasn't suddenly going to start running like Mike Vick yesterday. He had a brace on his injured left knee.

Oh, the officiating was TERRIBLE and TOTALLY ONE SIDED.

Every little hold was called on the Dolphin O Line in those few instances in which Tanny did manage to get the ball off.

The right offensive Colts tackle WAS HOLDING ALL DAY LONG on the most obvious of which he had a grasp after the guy had passed him.

Sometimes I wonder about the integrity of the NFL officials.

I remember posting that as awful as they were with calls, when the Replacement officials were calling the games, I saw no instance of bias.

Incompetence is better than bias anyday.

At least with incompetence, you will get half the calls. With bias, you get none.

More excuses.

He missed wide open receivers. He saw them, he threw the ball, and missed.

What he under some pressure? Yes, but that is the NFL. When the game is on the line, the good QBs make those throws.

The jury is still way out on Tannehill. That one game against AZ is starting to look more like an outlier - against one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL.

------------------------------------------------------------

Miami Dolphins. Always Perfect.

Defense gave up a lot of yards, but held them to only 23 points - 2 TDs, 3 FGs. When Tannehill almost broke the record against Arizona, we lost, and all those yards only equalled 21 points - 2 TDs (one run), 2 FGs). Point is, defenses are there to prevent scoring - y'know, team with most points, (not yards), wins. We held the mighty Luck to 2 TDs! I think good.

Like I said, team with the most points win. We only scored 20. Why? If anyone taped the game, go back and watch Pouncy snapping the ball when we are in shotgun formation: looks between legs at QB, raises head up to see opponent, snaps ball. Same everytime with no hesitation between the three; 1,2,3. Look at the defense watching this, and see why they were in the backfield before Tanny would even get the ball up to throwing level. Now compare that to Satele for the Colts - he never moves his head.

Haven't you heard - Pouncy is a first round pick, so he can't possibly have faults....

Actually, I think he is very good. It's one thing he does need to correct though. Can't figure out why the coaches didn't see it though.

Moore would have put MORE points on the board. Titans were giving up 30 a game and Tanny could only muster 3.... pathetic!!
