OK, I'm not saying the season is over so "Play all the Seniors!", but I think we can all agree that a couple of changes need to be made, if for no other reason than to send a message. So here's your chance, you make the call on three changes to this coming week's game. Mine: 1. Bench Ginn for the game and activate Turner. Do I think Turner is the answer? Maybe, maybe not. But

In all seriousness. What would the cap hit be to cut Ginn? Let Turner play and try to develop and start throwing to the TE again!

If Chad is hurt I can't see how they will turn the ball over to White. This is where the gamble can hurt.. If Henne then gets hurt, White can not come in at all since Henne came in before the 4th. So who would that leave as the emergency QB if Henne gets hurt, Ginn? Or do we run the wild cat the rest of the game?

A lot of JT with his hand on the ground today. I can't believe we aren't beating up more on their OL toda with 2 starters out.

Not that I normally pay attention to this kind of stuff, but I thought for sure that Camarillo's catch would have made their Top 10 plays. I don't care how much luck there may have been involved with that, it was still an amazing catch. I haven't really even seen it mentioned anywhere.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Yes, I know that and do see your point. It would essentially put us one person down on game day I suppose, but would the availability of all three at any time Sparano wanted it offset that? hmmm..

I fully understand how the 3rd QB rule works, but what I don't understand is why would we really let it effect us? Even if Miami really is grooming Pat White to be a QB there is no question that they will be using him in the Wildcat and probably some WR in base packages. I can't see how he will beat out Henne to be our future full time QB. My question is, do they even truly need to list him

Well, it looks as if Goodell is in favor of extending the regular season to 17 or 18 games as early as 2011. Of course a lot of things need to happen before that becomes a reality, like a new CBA for one, but it got me thinking. I know Jimmy Johnson was a big proponent of eliminating players from being "inactive" during a game. He believed that if you were on the team, you should be

Yea, its a bit early to be talking 2010 when this years team isn't even finalized yet, but looks like we have an extensive list (12) of free agents poised to hit the market in 2010. It's headlined by Chad Pennington, Will Allen, Anthony Fasano, David Martin, Matt Roth, Jason Ferguson, and Davone Bess. Out of these I see Bess and Fasano as locks to get a long term extension, hopefully early thi

I figure we will draft at least 2 CBs in April and probably bring in a couple more undrafted RFAs (as training camp fodder), but I can't believe that we will not bring in any UFAs to compete and help mentor the newbies. If someone such as Surtain or McAlister were willing to come in for a low base/incentive laden deal for a year or two to prove they are still good players, why wouldn't we look

I think we still have a lot of work to do. I have to tell you, the Jets are going to have a totally stacked defense. I bet before the weekend is out they sign Ivy and Leonhard. Match that with their signing of Scott and the trade for Sheppard and I think they will be giving us fits next year.

Victor, you think Satele is going to start at Guard over Smiley? Then looks like our free agent signing of him was a bust, huh? Maybe over Thomas but the only way I think he replaces Smiley is if he gets hurt again.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

There is something about this guy that bothers me. I think this will end up being the largest disappointment in free agency. Maybe not this year or possibly even 2010, but I do not think that this guys will play anywhere near a $100M price tag. You have to give it to him and his agent though, regardless of how he plays he an his family are now set for life.

I am still holding out hope that they resign Bell and move him over to FS, but I think that is just my heart talking. My head tells me he is movng on. I think we resign Hill to a cap friendly, short term contract and draft a FS to take over for him. The coaches did credit Hill for his communication in the secondary.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I am very surprised at his signing. I think the fact that they are signing someone so young only to a three year deal is very telling that they don't see him as the long term solution. I think there may be some serious concern over his play making ability and knees. The fact that they didn't over spend allows them to have a known solid (yet unspectacular) player on-hand in case they don't get
