What a lackluster effort in the first half. Watching Cameron Wake: He seems to have lost a step or two and is getting manhandled by the Lions' RT. Defensive line is being outplayed and our LBs are out of sync. They are making many mental mistakes. Coverage is lacking badly. Offensively we are not calling good plays. Our plays are too obvious and poorly executed. More use of TEs is n

Big hit on the unsuspecting security guard. Hope she is okay. The hit also hurt Stills. Glad we scored but allowing too much on defense. Since when do Lions run the ball well? Against us! C'mon LBs.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Play calling is terrible. A run play on 3rd and 10? Really? Frank Gore is exceptional but no magical. C'mon Gase. Use those TEs.

The team looks sluggish to me thus far. Both offense and defense. They need to pick it up or Stafford will score again.

When I think of Devante Parker I can visualize a player covered in little bandaids from head to toe. Comical perhaps, but his injuries continue to plague him. As a result he has little value to the team. Many fans think he's a bust. I'm one of them. If we can trade him for something of value, that would be better than keeping him as dead weight on the roster. IMO his time as a NFL player is com

The Lions will play outdoors today in the Florida sunshine. Watch them welt. We can beat these guys provided all our players do their job and execute without penalties. Osweiler has a chance to prove himself again--this time the opponent knows he will be the QB. Let's get the TEs involved a little more and run the ball at these guys. Hoping for another fun, thrilling game and a big vic

Most of us are skeptics today because of the past decade of failures. Whether it was management, coaching, draft and players issues and injuries. We all expect the other shoe to drop because it has done so, so often. Had the team been competitive against the Patsies, there might have been more optimism and enjoyment for the fans with the past overtime win. For me the game kept me on the seat o

Emotions running wild with this game. Up, down, sideways...I'm thrilled the team pulled out a victory. It was a battle. The Florida weather plays a role in this win, just like the guts of Gore, the speed of Wilson and the decent play of the o-line. Osweiler rose in QB status today for me, he did a fine job. Kudos to him. A definite, "well done."

FG-- A win!!!!!

Crazy in capital letters. A missed field goal keeps us alive.

C'mon. Let's win this.

Back in the game. Tied at 21. Wilson is a player and needs more touches. Go Dolphins.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Kenny Stills is not part of the passing game with Osweiler. Good to see TEs finally getting some throws. Gore is still a player.... We are still in the game but must stop the easy scores by the Bears. #24 is outclassed. He remains a liability just like in past weeks. Bears are exploiting his coverage.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Why is Devante Parker playing? Doesn't he have to nurse some minor injury this week. BTW, he was out of position on that long pass and of little use to the Dolphins. When is he going to be cut?
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I am totally surprised with our play so far. I thought for sure this would be a blow out for 'da Bears. Solid play so far.

Holy crap...we scored.

Apparently RT is out with a bad shoulder. I think we'll we need a shoulder to cry on after this one. I was thinking 3-28 Bears...hope it's the other way around.

Just learned that Tannehill is out. What's the reason?

Fingers are crossed for the O-line. If they can block, we have a chance...if not...it will be a long, hot, disappointing day. Beer mug will be full...we are all ready for a win. Go Dolphins.

The turnstile of coaches since Shula speaks volumes. What we had with Shula was something truly special, not just at HC but the assistants were darn good too. We also had a smart owner...in contrast to the ownership of today. In MLB when a starting pitcher doesn't have his stuff working, he may get shelled and the game gets ugly fast if the manager keeps him in too long. The manager has to be

Next "foe" are the 'Da Bears. They seem to be a real up and coming team. On the other hand, our O-line is once again battered and failing miserably with our subs and it's hard to imagine that any of our 4 Dolphins QBs could do much to run the offense effectively. Sad to say, but I expect 'Da Bears to run all over the Dolphins this coming Sunday. We can't even "fire and fall back&

The O-line, no depth whatsoever so it's no surprise this game went south. Gase is a horrible play caller. The team is headed for another dismal season.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Phillips was a "slacker" with the Dolphins. Being picked up by the Bills...well...they aren't too bright. Revenge can surely be motivational, but with Phillips that emotion will be inconsistent. Maybe he'll play hard against the Dolphins, however, his true colors will show up in the other games where he's resting on his laurels.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Jordan Phillips' purported skill set never materialized. He was given plenty of time and just never quite made it. The embarrassment with the Patriots...probably was enough agitation in the minds of Gase and Company to make the cut without thinking. It should have happened far earlier IMO. He's fortunate to have made a good salary... and may find a spot on another team as a 2nd or 3rd stringer.
