Let me first say I like Tony and wouldn't mind if he returns....having said that the problem with retaining Sporano is if you do that they will probably maintain the current staff. Think about it, if you were a OC on the open market why would you come here to work for a staff that only has a 1yr deal? The better OC's will likely look for a more stable situation than joining Sporano without an ext

Why would he fire a guy that calls plays the same way he coaches? keep it close and try and win it in the 4th qtr. Why do we assume Sporano is unhappy with Henning? The Dolphins need a philosophical change as much as anything

Ronnie, Ricky doesn't want to be a feature back. I would love to see someone use Ronnie the way Cam did until he got injured(making a takle no less). Either way we have to upgrade the speed on this offense.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

First of all let me say that I like Sparano as a coach, his team plays hard and disciplined. I just don't like his philosophy of keeping it close and trying to win it in the 4th QTR. I will take Gruden over Cowher, people seem to have forgotten what he did in Oakland. while it's true he took Dungy's guys to a Superbowl tittle it's also true that Callahan took Gruden's guys to that same Superbo

No,no no....Hell no!

Henne actually started playing pretty well after he replaced Penny in the Titans game and just continued it yesterday. I think the benching may have been a wake up call.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I think they looked at Jones as more of a SS, but I think Clemons would probably transition to a decent SS. He likes contact and is a decent tackler. Jones appears to have better ball skills (although it was only a small sample) Has anyone noticed that Sean Smith has greatly improved his tackling this season?
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I am very anxious to see how the kid performs tonight Vs. what C. Clemons has done this season. Jones played roughly 1 1/2 qtrs and IMO has had a greater impact then Clemons. If he plays well I wonder if he will get more playing time when Clemons gets healthy.

Lets see we are 4-4 after playing Bills Vikings Packers Jets Pats Steelers Bengals Ravens before the season started the most optimistic amoungst us would have said 5-3, while the rest would figure 4-4, with the easier part of the schedule coming up. The team has clearly flattened out and Henne isn't as far along as most of us would like. The coachng staff decided to make a change and

I have a novel idea...how about we wait a few games and see how this plays out. I personally thing Pennington will be better for B. Marsh. Hopefully Chad Sr. can hit him in stride on some of those drag and crossing routes and give him a chance to make some y.a.c. time will tell.

Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I am one who was growing increasing tired of Henne's perceived lack of production. I qualify that comment because I don't know what the game plans were. Having said that this move leads me to believe that Henne wasn't executing the offense as called and may have been playing it too close to the vest. When you play not to make mistakes you tend to make more of them. I personally believe Henne has
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

There is a lot of blame to go around and Chad had to take his share as well, that pass had to be better and Fasano needs to present a better target but he was open.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

What you are really implying is that we have a lack of play makers on this team. Not enough team speed on the offensive side. The defense is heading in the right direction. Misi hasn't progressed as quickly as we would hope but he is learning a new position. Wake provides the only consistent pressure We don't force fumbled and we have dropped no less than five int's in the past two games. Henning
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I see the point you are trying to make and in my opinion it doesn't add up. While his numbers have slipped recently he has an added value to an offense. What are Wes Welkers numbers since Moss left? Granted he is coming back from an injury but you can't discount his impact on Welkers and Brady's numbers. Look at the inmpact on Percy Harvin and his production pre and post Moss. It's the same effec
