If you can jump higher then everyone else and meet the ball at the highest point that is a pretty good trick to have in the bag of tricks... He also seems to have great focus, ie the deep ball he caught around the Patriots defender in the last game... He has shown flashes in a few areas I like to see and it is still early on with little playing time.. I think Parker's game and style compliments L

I thought Myles Jack was an outside linebacker, is he projected to play at MLB at the next level? It would blow my mind if we draft a MLB with the 8th position. It has been a really long time and rarely does a MLB go that high.. Hell even Luke Kuechly didnt go until 9. And he is the best in the business.. Normally you can get a stud MLB in the 2nd or late first... Ray Lewis went pick 26. Which

I agree, I dont understand how a guy was hired the same week he was preparing and the same day he was coaching a play off game... If we didnt at least try for Jim Schwartz as the DC, I dont get it.. Unless he is hired as a HC, Schwartz is undoubtedly be the best DC available by far....

Please explain to me what you expected Marino to have done thus far? Fire Ross, fire Tannebaum, bring in a HOF coach? Make Tannehill the next coming of Joe Montana? IMO the guy has not really gotten involved with the football advising to Ross until Philbin got fired... What do you expect him to have done in that time period? Instead you want to say he isnt smart and attack him? SMH..... In th

Yes but Tannenbaum is tight with Ross, Marino declaring Tannebaum should be fired would most likely just get him fired. Then he can have no impact at all... You have to pick your battles wisely an

Hickey has been a lame dunk since the hiring of Tannebaum that castrated his power as a GM. Grier was a desired commodity, there is good chance we were going to lose him if he wasnt promoted... So IMO that is all that happened.. Hickey has been gone for a while now.. They just made it official so Grier wasnt hired away this offseason...

His title is that of a special adviser.. I think he does some PR work, and an ambassador for the team. He also is involved in the football side, at practices and involved in team and position meetings.. At the Giants game, he was kneeling down next to Ross most of the game seemingly advising him and discussing the play of the team during the game. He seems to have Mr Ross's ear, and one of his

The player making the call on the coin toss for the Pats messed up... He tried to change it back to receive once he realized he made a mistake but the refs wouldn't allow it..

Tannehill issues this year regardless of the pressure on him.. 1) His pocket presence got worse this year 2) He holds onto the ball too long 3) He had accuracy issues in all sort of throws not just the deep ball. This was his greatest regression this year IMO, accuracy... To me most of his issues lead back to his poor foot work this year...

I initially hated the Tannehill pick and wanted Kuechly, who went the pick after Tannehill. But then Tannehill's play and progression over the next couple years won me over. Then this year was regression. I do not believe it is time to completely cut the rope on Tannehill. The bottom line is that our entire team did not play well this year other then Landry and Reshad Jones. So while I am not aga

Tannehill had a chance to tie the game in the last few minutes with a wide open receiver with a clear path to the end zone and he over threw the guy by a lot... It wasnt even a difficult pass, he just missed him... You cant have that type of mistake with the game on the line from your franchise QB.... end of story... that is when the trio (Marino, Tannenbaum, Ross) got up and left the box in dis
