DOLPHINS: Porter Problem

[PJ Bimonte]

I wonder how many times LT got suspended.

 

Just sayin'

 

Dude is backing up his talking on the field, that's all Tuna cares about.

Dave,

That would be correct. It was Brian Cox. He also played at Chicago if my
fading memory is correct.

 

Regardless of whatever talent level Porter has or hasn't got, the bottom
line is Tony is going to have to suspend this guy and fine him BIG TIME.

 

Refusal to listen to the coach is insubordination - pure and simple. I fire
people for this, and there's no state employment agency in the country who
won't support a employer on this. If you're the captain of the ship and
someone doesn't take a direct order... you make them pay. Tony knows this,
and you KNOW TUNA KNOWS IT.

Since I didn't see the game, and only heard part of it, I'm a bit surprised
by some of this. My memory is shot, but Porter sounds a lot like a former
MLB of the Dolphins who had some talent but a really big mouth. Can't
remember his name, but am I on track on this? IIRC he went to the Jets.

I'm curious to hear about this from those who know more than I do:  Would
the Dolphins really miss Joey Porter?

 

I ask because, while he is on a mad tear for sacks, does he do much else
(besides jabber)? He strikes me as one-dimensional, but maybe that's just my
lack of knowledge. 

 

I ask this in the same spirit of what the team lost when it parted with,
say, Jason Taylor and Zach Thomas. Taylor also was a sack machine, but he
was lousy against the run. Thomas made lots of tackles, but they always
seemed to come a few yards after initial contact and he was an average
rusher and coverer. Getting rid of such highly one-dimensional players
allows other more well-rounded players to contribute. (For example, Greg
Camarillo might not be the greatest receiver in any one category, but he is
above average in all of them.)

 

Or is the fact that, like Taylor, teams have to account for Joey in their
game planning (he was double-teamed most of yesterday) coupled with that
distraction and redirection of resources what make him valuable? 

 

I might need Rick's asbestos suit after this, but I'm largely playing
devil's advocate here.
