Henne and great accuracy. He has none inside the red zone. Marshall and him are totally on different plays.

Sparano is out for sure. He does not know how to prepare a team. The NFL is too much for him.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

That was good, but there was no doubt about it that Henne was terrible inside the red zone. His fade throws were three to four yards out of the end zone. Plus he was way off page with the receivers. I guess they didn't plan on being in the red zone. But you are correct about the defense. They didn't even show up.

It is too expensive for the average guy to pay that type of money and watch a loosing team. I live in Ohio and I used to travel to two games a year and have NFL package on Direct TV. I have not traveled to South Florida in two years and I gave up Direct TV for the first time in eight years. I will not continue to pay for a crappy service. The team was not conditioned, defense had no clue

Simple answer: NO! Having the tools and being able to use them are two different things. Could be the system he is playing in and could be some other factors, but when Thigpen went in and proved better, that says a lot. He seems like a QB that needs a good RB and strong line. Being able to think quick on his feet is not his best tool.

They are nothing but stingy bastards and if they strike, I don't see me coming back to the sport. If they only knew how good they have it.

They are getting time for the Rooney clause.

This needed to happen. this is the top of the food chain and if things are getting done, it is time to cut them loose. All of those areas that someone has left or been fired has been eye sores for us. Let them go.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I am not a big fan of Gruden anyways. He was given all the parts when he came to Tampa. As for Cowher, he had staying power and I would be 50/50 on him. We have the parts there. We just need to bring in anyone who is willing to score more then 3 points in a game. Things we have good: 1. A good defense with starters returning and sophomore defenders are usually better and don't hit tha

Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

You still have to look at the fact of game management. Sparano had no clue in some games. Look at all the bad timeouts and players being lost on the field. Plus the ability to not pull someone when they were obviously doing bad. There is a lot going in to play here. We did have injuries and inconsistent play along with other issues. But over all, Tony did not do a good job with coaching

But like it has been said numerous times. We don't have anything to get a good QB.

I would agree with you, but he needs to work on clock management and getting into people's ass when they mess up.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

A QB doesn't look good. Maybe FA but outside of that, luck would have to play into it.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I agree, we need to keep Thigpen in the mix and try another option outside of Henne. If thigpen comes out on top so be it, but he at least should have started half way through or at least the next game after Chicago.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

During the first Jets game, one of the announcers made a comment that Henne makes at least one terrible throw a game and it came after he was trying to hit a back out in the flats and totally under threw him by four yards. Now wouldn't it be great if he only had that one throw a game, but if you watched all year long, we know he had many more bad throws then that. Even hard core henne suppo
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Guys you are totally missing the point. Henne was given his chance and he created an 11 QB rating. Thigpen came in like he always does late or with little to no reps in practice and at least competes. He may not be our long term solution, but he was way better then Henne. What Mia1 is trying to say is that given the time and reps that Henne had, we would have been better. NO body knows h

Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Henne was terrible. I would bet on it that the only reason they send two receivers out in coverage is the fact that he can only read two routes. They give him the back coming out cause it is always for little or no gain. Just look at the play calling when they pull him and put in Thiggy. They go to five wide and or send four out. And when they do, he almost always finds the right guy. He n

We all hope so. There needs to be some changes for such a crazy year.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

We are in trouble, but when Henne had his shots, he totally blew it. He would miss wide open receivers, step right into pressure and always had to check down cause he could only read two receiver routs and needed max protection! When Thiggy was in, they would send out five, but with Henne, there was two and a back. Doesn't that seem funny how the play calling could change that fast from one
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Henne is not our answer! you guys are crazy if you think Thigpen was given a chance. He alwaysa comes in as a closer in a shit situation and everyone expects him to play like Brady. YOu know he didn't take any reps with the first team and the only start he was given was against the Bears on four days with no line and no receivers.

Maybe it is owned and operated by the Dolphins. They are both quitting on die hard fans!

Ross is die hard Michigan fan and was reported to be the biggest athletic booster supporter. Henne a Michigan alumni and played Qb there. I am just taking a stab in the dark here, but could have been a case where the coaching staff saw what it wanted in Thigpen and thus why the play calling was different for him, but Ross had has finger on Henne wanting him to play because of the Michigan
