This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
He supposedly left the team because something made him angry? Really? Now some undrafted guy we claimed from KC named Justin March-Lillard is starting in his place? It could be a very long day for Miami who couldn't stop the run last year with arguable better line-backing than what we'll see today. Sucks.

This is such typical Phins bullshit honest to god, a team full of drama and crap. Seriously monday?? and you dont know why he left, or even if he is in the building?? A stupid pee wee league has more of a clue than this. I dont mean to be negative, but look at all the wasted cap room and players that have been signed and cant play and injury prone players, I have know idea how we win, but this mess has got to stop. I dont care what the damn problem was, all you had to do was call the coach and tell him what was up, not freaking run to the airport like a damn runaway kid. Suspend him 4 games, get back your signing bonus, retain some cash and cut his ass on week 5. and for gods sake start getting players that give a shit. Thank you, and sorry for the rant.
I'm still scratching my head. The front office is playing "I don't know" to the hilt. Is Timmons that goofy in the head that no one on the team has a clue on what's going on with him? Is this another mental health issue? Was he being "bullied." (just kidding on that)
Nothing I've heard or read so far makes any sense whatsoever. We still don't have a line backing corps that can stay with TEs. Unless something unusual occurs...the team is going to see a lot of crossing patterns up the middle by opponents that will march down the field without having to hand the ball off to a RB. We have to be able to defend against the pass.
I think it definitely an odd situation. TMZ is saying they found him at the LAX getting ready to fly back PA on Saturday night. I think Gase is doing the right thing but not immediately allowing back not the team like nothing has happened. Miami could even suspend him for a game. The next game is @Jets. Not over look the Jets, but the Jets are terrible and the one team Miami should have no problem beating.
Last year, Gase left Ajayi at home as well for the opening game and that ended up working alright.
Lets notforget the jets always play well against us....They always match up very good against us. No matter how good or bad they do against every other team.
As far as timmons....I say give him a break....We really need his pass rushing skills.....
Didnt yousee all the time the charger qb had tothrow the ball?
Brady would cut us into pieces with all that time.
I'm reminded of the old idiom,"God is in the detail." I'd want to know why he left before I make an assessment that I do or don't want him back. I'm reminded of another old saying, don't cut off your nose to spite your face. We really do need him on a football level. If this was a truly isolated circumstance and there's no reason to believe it will happen again, then I say, suspend him for a game or two and move on. If it were to happen again, cut him immediately.
seriously????? its now tuesday and nobody has heard anything. Enough of giving overpaid players a damn break. would any people on this board still have a job if you left your company for 4 days and not one notice?? Bullshit the answer is no. If everyone is going to go thru this protesting shit on company time and do all this holding out and not showing up and generally being an ass, then its time for the people who are paying you to find some balls in their pockets and start calling out and putting an end to this. I dont care if he is the next LT, everyone is replaceable and this should start right now. I guarantee there are dozens of MLB that would break their asses to play, so just get someone and send a message and stop treating these players like they are gods. I understand that there is probably a serious matter with him due to his past being so perfect and this is not normal for him, I am not heartless, but the simple fact is he left without notice and hasnt even explained himself or contacted his boss. I dont give in to bullshit excuses, it would have taken less time to make a phone call, than it has for me to bitch about it and type this. Be done and collect your signing bonus back and move on. I dont see a MLB all of a sudden making our offense more effective. I know defense wins games but we have enough overpaid knuckleheads that arent even going to play for a year let alone paying one who wont even show up or make the damn call to say. Hey coach i got some serious issues i need your help. Got no problem walking his ass to the plane or bank correct?
We're down to Mike Hull and Chase Allen... Two guys that should be playing special teams, not starting on defense. Trust me, if those two are the starters going forward, this defense will be torched. If Timmons has some problem that makes him likely to do this again, I agree with you. If Gase is reasonably sure that it won't happen again, I'd rather see him in the game than Hull or Allen.

See thats the difference between me and you Sam. I'd take a player with a huge heart over another with mega skills and NONE.
Thats why you cant appreciate a player/person like Ryan Tannehill.
One team your always quick to rub one out to is the Pats. Brady this, Brady that. You think Belichick would even mention this guys name again after missing a practice let alone a GAME?
Disgracful. Cut this guy, suspend him, get the money back and make it so any team that even thinks about his lazy ass will only pay him league minimum from here on in.
I agree treasure, and apparently so do the phins as they suspended him indefinitely. Its about time... I am sure a trade will be made somewhere for a better LB and after all Hull did lead the team in tackles so I for one am not upset. Everyone said Zach was too small and not good enough. I would take 10 of him everyday.
Hey Sam......how come it always takes like 3-4 posts to make a point?
And after reading it you never seem to get there?
Do you have any real useful insight? Or are you just a reactionary Monday morning armchair QB ? That post you quoted me on about the Pats means what? Our defense over the middle and for short passes sucks right now. Thats Bradys game. Short quick passes , over the middle of the field . Bang bang Bang. Control the clock. Back in the day he admitted he hated to play Miami because Taylor. Thomas, and Madision would @#$%& his day up. Today its a field day for him.
So again.......whats your point and lets see if you can make it in one response.
I would agree if you said the Dolphins stink.....but Tannehill alone targeted for all of our woes ? No. Last season we were on a 6 game winning streak before the injury. We made the playoffs eventually and I saw the man break down and cry while being carted off the field.
The only thing that stinks around here is you as a fan Sam.
Then why is he even bringing him up this season? For what purpose? How much does the drunk pay you to defend him constantly? You must be on retainer.......
