Thanks Curt for getting the forums up and running again. Not being able to check comments and voice opinion was a big missing part of my daily routine. Many others must feel the same way. Thanks! Colonel

The difference between an average team (8-8 record) and a superior team (12-4 or better) isn't just a few additional quality players, it's above average players at most positions plus proven assistant coaches that can develop players to get them to be more effective in what they are supposed to do. Consequently,the Dolphins continue to employ unproven assistant coaches, and in regards to HC,

The Dolphins are 1-6 in away games. The team is atrocious on the road. Fans have to wonder why the team is so sorry in another team's stadium.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Another pathetic away game. Granted RT is limited with his legs and the lousy offensive line play compounds the inability for any offense. Parker and Stills not in this game. Was it lack of time for Tannehill to throw to them? Lack of breaking away from coverage in their routes? A combination of both? Yeah, probably both. The Dolphins lose this one 41 to 17. There were only a couple

33-17 with 9 minutes to play. Injury to RT has stymied his mobility and presented an easy target in the pocket for the Vikings. I don't expect any more miracles to close the gap in this game. Vikings are outplay the Dolphins. The fat lady is about to sing...so we can turn out the lights.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Holy Crap Marie, this team is horrendous. Vikings look like SB Champs. Emotions not carrying the day for the Dolphins...I was hopeful.... Agree Fins72, this is a first quarter knock out. It's going to be a long day. For those of you who have yet to put up outdoor lighting for Christmas, today may be a good day to do this rather than watch a runaway Vikings team beat the ever living crap out
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I think they're on a boat--sure not at the game. This is a weak start for certain on both sides of the ball for Dolphins.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

The Vikings have an advantage at home. However, there could be a special sense of "we can do it" following the "Miracle Play" of last Sunday. That kind of win can really stir the emotions in a positive way and that could make a big difference in this away game. The Dolphins used to have fans in every state, now, I'm not sure since we've played crappy for years and people leave

Unbelievable. Incredible. Lucky as hell. WE WIN.

Gore provides the pro bowler spark he is known for and...bingo we drive for a TD.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

The energy has dissipated following the injury to RT. No spark shown on the first drive. Penalty by Tunsil set them back. Can Gase excite and energize the players...I hope so, but not with lousy play calling.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

It's been exciting football. Glad to see it. But... The step on RT's foot/ankle...not good at all and that could doom any further scoring in the second half. We'll have to wait and see if Tannehill takes the field and if he does just how effective he will be with less mobility and a weakened foot to throw off of.

Lousy play calling combined with a weak offensive line, and injuries to our receiving corps...all contribute to weak scoring potential. Howard is earning a Pro Bowl selection. He is also earning a right to a higher paying contract. We are seeing him blossom.

Below are comments from ESPN. "Offensive coordinator Joe Philbin will serve as the interim head coach. Philbin was 24-28 in three-plus seasons as the Miami Dolphins' head coach from 2012 to '15. He was with the Packers for nine years before he was hired by the Dolphins and returned as offensive coordinator for this season." GB offense is not hitting on all cylinders. Could Joe Ph

SCPhinsFan--that was my thoughts exactly when I heard GB fired him. That would be fine with me as long as his buddy Philbin stayed out of the picture.

Penalties galore on both sides of the ball today. It was down to a couple of plays and the Dolphins get a win. Whew! Now back at .500. Six wins and 6 losses. Josh Allen almost made it happen. Fun to watch.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Howard is having a strong game. Kiko Alonzo: quite evident he has desire; quite evident he has to chase down too, too many players. Josh Allen is really making Alonzo look determined but too slow afoot to do much about it.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Well, it's half time and I'm surprised by the lack of posts thus far. Has everyone fallen asleep or gone Christmas shopping? The O-line, LG, C, RG, are having a difficult game (to be polite). During the off season these three positions must be addressed. No QB could provide enough talent to overcome the weaknesses in these 3 key offensive line positions. The only good thing for the momen

Game is at 1 pm. Old style uniforms will be donned by the players and hopefully will magically strengthen our team's resolve on defense. Go Dolphins.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

SamSam, your topic and thread are really "tongue and Cheek." You honestly don't want the Dolphins to lose yet you don't want them to miss out potentially on a better player that could be taken in the 1st round of the next draft. Many assumptions going on with your post. The chances of the twits in management actually picking a first rate quality player (at any position), based on past

Ken, you saw what I saw and have to agree. Gase is horrible play caller and D was severely out played by Luck who is a very good QB.

"They win ugly and they lose ugly," opinion of Bill Cowher today on the NFL pregame show about the Dolphins. Hopefully, the Dolphins can "win ugly" today versus the latter.
