Here we go....123 and punt. 2nd half adjustments by the opposing team, and the run game will start becoming ineffective.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Yeah, Henne makes it short and sweet. I dunno about the kick, though. Every freaking game Tony makes some kind of bonehead decision. Plenty of time for a shot in the EZ. What do you have to lose?
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Fasano can't catch, but looks like this kid Sperry sure can.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Offensively, so far, nothing much to talk about except the wildcat which (so far) is productive. Passing game not clicking as usual, and Henne is getting more pressure. Other than a couple catches by Camarillo and Hartline, nothing at all. Nice play there by JT.

Thomas out, Smiley out, this line is in a bit of trouble today. Thomas looks like he'll come back though.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Yeah, Anderson having a monster day. But we can't see to catch a break, either the QB gets away or we strip the ball twice and it ends up back in their hands. Blocked extra point earlier..this is one of those games that are automatic wins but if you're not careful you'll totally lose.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Bess's pass was overthrown. Ginn's pass was on target. Dolphins are sleepwalking out there, on the whole. Good thing we're playing the Bucs. Too bad the Bucs sniffed out that wildcat pass, would have been a nice play.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

He has good hands and a big arm radius, I say let's play him. If his problem is he's not getting open, well they knew that when they drafted him, he wasn't that type of guy, but he can catch the ball in a crowd, he's proven that in college at least. And with our receivers not getting open much, how do you not get on the field at this point? I'll look forward to seeing him.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

First 2 drafts we poured a foundation. But we still have holes, like at safety, and wr. We have to both upgrade and fill the holes. That won't be easy. Plus, we have to replace our NT. There is just no way to get away from FA like Parcells did before. We need key pickups in FA, and then BPA in the draft. Average doesn't do it. And you can't upgrade every single position. So we have

Good thoughts, realist. Agreed, Tobor looked good. I like your lineup, but I think Porter will step up his play. Pass rush, we put Mr. GQ on his arse...but there was nothing, no pressure later in the game. Not sure why that was. O line, yeah they took a step back yesterday, but I think they'll rebound. And yes, those ridiculous sacks need to stop. I think Henne will make better dec
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Yep, like razorghost says, the plays would have been called differently, and we probably would have moved down the field more methodically. But these are growing pains for Henne. Regarding all the comments about WR, I don't disagree. That's been a glaring problem, and we need better receivers and tight ends. But Henne also has to find a way to get his man the ball, coverage or not. Or else
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

stupid move.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I told you he would play better today. Because he's embarrassed and was benched. But he's a bust. What I'm surprised at though, is that more of the receivers haven't had a better day.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Yeah, Bess was off today. Henne needs to get his receivers, and take them out in the field, every day, all day and do nothing but work with them. They're lacking execution and BOTH Henne and his receivers need the work. It can only help. That's what Brady did. Think that kind of chemistry just comes all by itself? It doesn't.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

LOL...he scored as a RETURNER not a receiver. And in the past, half the time he's done a poor job of that too. But I would keep him back there, since there's a chance he could break one.

And without Jason Taylor's touchdown, we don't win this game, either. Bottom line is offense didn't show up, which actually surprised me. I thought we would see some receivers step up today. I also expected Henne to get knocked around, which he did, but I still expected us to be better. But when we came out with Ronnie running out of base offense, and Henne having to back up and throw, I kn

Taylor has been having a great year, what games are you people watching? He scored today too...hello??? Without his score we lose. I'd like him rotated more though, but I guess Wake isn't ready.

No, you're right, he's thinking about the division.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

They're pretty solid, but the D on the Jets brought everybody. Hopefully next game he'll get more protection. Actually, coach needs to let him be in the shotgun, not pretending the play action under center when they know he's going to throw it.

Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

We were 0-3 because our O line wouldn't block and the wildcat couldn't get cranked. Once the blocking started, and the wildcat worked, a we caught a few passes in between, we won a few. But 14 points came from special teams and 7 points came from Jason Taylor. Those points did NOT come from Chad Henne and our offense. Overall, I'm glad Henne is in there, but I'm just sayin. We were luc
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Chad Henne has had a horrible game so far. Penny would have at least been able to game manage better, read the defense, and get off quicker passes. Holding it all day, being out of position, and backing up 15 yards on a crucial drive is not what we want out of our QB. Don't get me wrong, I like Henne. But he's a rookie and he'll need all year to improve. Is there any doubt that we hav
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

You're completely wrong. The wildcat is the only formation we can run out of, and we need a running game. It's part of our game plan and what they're used to doing. I'm shocked that they abandoned it right from the start of the game. We should have come out hard with the wildcat, and put in some passing plays for Ronnie. Even if the jets stuffed a few runs, in the first quarter you NEED

Ginn a DB? That's pretty funny.

I guess he's a developmental guy, and we couldn't keep him when we needed to get other people on the field. Sucks though....We had 8 draft picks, two of them in the 2nd round, and out of 8, 3 are making it on the field. Knox was not available. Robinson is out of commission with heart problems, but once he recovers and controls his weight, he can return and become a dominant force on
