I think Ginn would never be a good 1st WR, but 2nd or 3rd I think he might find a great spot. Kind of like Wes Welker. I'm not saying he is a Wes Welker, just that he could be given some time and a QB that looks around more for open WR. Either way, giving him up for so little return value makes me shake my head. I thought the draft by Cam was good, and it's showing that it is.

I'm not worried about the deep misses. I'd like to see him hit every one, but if we get open receivers downfield I don't have any doubt that he'll hit them. There were two things I thought that Henne couldn't fix. One was the ability to throw a pass with touch. Especially with Bush that's huge because that's where Bush shines is that little screen into open space. Henne always seems to throw

I hate 1st year centers. It seems like a center needs a couple years to get used to things in the NFL to me. I expect some problems there this year before Pouncey gets used to it. At least he did play at a college with high level competition.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I don't even care who would win, I just hope it lights a fire under Ginn's butt and he does his talking in the end zone Sunday.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Here's hoping the Pats collapse and we win the division. I think that's more likely right now than baltimore losing a single game. We just gotta take care of business and win Ten, then move on and hope everyone around us loses.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Henne is definitely a bright spot win or lose this season. We need to get him a premiere WR and our Offense will be hitting on all cylinders. If we can stop the fumbles.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

You look at the competition's schedules for the year, and the last three games it makes you want to pull your hair out. If Denver loses to Phila, we could end up with the same record, but because they play the bottom of the league they'll be going on to the playoffs. Same goes for Baltimore, Pitt and Cinci swapped surprisingly, but overall they had a cake walk.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I thought Pat White looked good too. The numbers look awful, but at least 3 of those 5 misses should have been caught, and I think the interception should have been too. The WR just weren't ready for the velocity he put on the ball. He moved very well and didn't panic in the pocket at least. I would have said Ricky and Ginn impressed me the most. If Chad had an arm to go with the great touch a

I'll give Pittsburgh credit, but Arizona sure showed that they did deserve to be in the big game. Most of the experts I follow picked Pittsburgh, and some even said easily. There was no easy to this game. Arizona trounced them in yardage and all that. Pittsburgh was the most consistent team all season, I give them props for the 6th win.

Wayne was a good owner, the players wanted to come here because he treated his people right and he stayed out of the decisions and let the experts do it. I wouldn't even say he made bad decisions so much as they worked out poorly. Any decision can be hit by lightning and go bad.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I still say it's the o-line coaches fault, and the Offensive coordinator. Satele was moving people around last year and he was working out less. He's big and fast for a center. I'm sure he can get better, get stronger and linemen naturally put on weight after a couple years. I don't think he was the weak point in the line. How many centers in the league pushed our NT Ferguson back every pl
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I'm not saying he didn't use steroids, 'cause I don't have a clue, but steroids leave a mark, and I don't see it on him. He didn't have a drastic weight gain, his head didn't grow or anything like that. I wouldn't accuse him of it so quickly.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I am saying that it's coaching, or more specifically play design. Last season we pulled the center and had him lead block on some plays. Those plays worked and we were rushing the ball. Where are the pulling guards and center this season, that's all I'm asking. I know it's a different offense, but this offense isn't using our running backs the best way possible. Some teams can push the defe

You've listed every position on the field except RB. It wasn't like we got wiped out. They scored half their points off turnovers. At least two of them were purely poor decisions on Chad's part. I'm not trying to make Chad the goat here, he's the reason we got to the playoffs in my opinion. He had one bad game, that doesn't mean he's always going to. A better rushing game would have taken some

I love the Dolphins and everything Parcells and his crew have done for us. I've never complained, and been a constant fan even at 0-13 I saw every minute. I'm just saying that Rushing is not a strength yet. I'm glad we have a balanced attack, I want to pass for 50% and rush for 50%. We're a little behind on the passing and the rushing is mostly gimmick right now. I'm not whining and I'm als
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

They had almost no interior lanes, someone isn't calling the plays right. Watch the replays, the offensive coordinator is replacing good line movement with gimmicks like the end around and wildcat. Don't tell me what they did last year, show me what they did this year. This year we were never a dominating rushing team, and I think we had the talent to be one. That's all I'm saying. Ronn
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I don't expect him to turn backup players into pro bowlers, I just expect someone to use plays that create holes for our backs, and to use our backs more. Your point is my point too, Ricky and Ronnie are doing well, the coordinator just isn't using them. We should have two 1,000 yard rushers in my opinion. They got all excited about the wild cat and forgot about interior lanes for rushing.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

You can't believe that Cincy and the raiders compares with Pitt/Balt and Den/SD. It's only two games though, so it's not a huge edge for the Jets. I think the Jets are in free fall anyway. New coach, QB up in the air or a restless lockeroom. The Jets aren't going to contend next year. I worry more about the Bills.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

It was a tough play, that's all I'll say. Shared blame between Chad, the defens, the offensive line and Ginn. They all had a part in it.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

You can defer to him, but it's pretty clear that someone doesn't have a good idea of what it takes to rush the ball. We have the line, they're all fast and big. We did it last year with a far inferior line. Maybe the offensive coordinator should look at some film from last year or from a team that does rush like Tennessee.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I love the whole staff, they did a fantastic job all season and no negatives from me overall. The lack of rushing was their fault, plain and simple. Their only rushing schemes are end around or wide runs and straight pushes. Polite is a good blocker, we need to have interior plays that pull guards and utilize Polite in taking out the linebacker covering the hole. Last year we have 4 100 yd
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I think Ginn is going to light things up as a 2nd receiver, we just need a 1st receiver. Getting rid of Ginn would be a huge mistake. He is the reincarnation of Wes Welker. We need to find a Randy Moss now. I like Mohamed Massaquoi, he looked great against great defenses. Physical player, good speed.

They had more passing yards than us, more rushing yards, way more special team yards. They had time of posession, fewer penalties and 9 more 1st downs than us. We were close because of two turnovers, but they were pushing us around. I think we're the better team now, but it's not an easy game, I don't see any easy ones on our schedule. There's no Detroit, Cincy, Cleveland, or even KC or Sa
