What I'm liking most about this T.C. is that it seems there are battles by really solid players going up against each other everywhere. Hopefully this makes what we have that much better, and come game days if we have a match-up advantage they'll be able to win out more times than not. Jake going against Cam Wake's speed, Douglas' strength, etc..makes them all better.. Our young corners going against B.M. every day...hopefully has them covering lesser talented receivers like blankets so-on and so-on
I dont know do ya really think Long gets called at 3 am and is asked or told hey we are gonna sign so and so. LOL wITH TODAYS MEDIA A SIGNING HAPPENS AND THEY ARE ON A PLANE AND SHOW UP 4 HRS LATER
You'd think they'd hit him with a text msg or something. Big Jake with his laptop cruising through PFT looking for new signings of Dolphins just strikes me as rather funny..
Good thing I have a kryptonite keyboard... The thing with Marques is, he is 33, but he has only played 7 16 game seasons, when he was young he did not start and had a year were his stats were all zeros. Maybe a young 33 is the way to put it. With Nolan's penchant for packages, he may not be the Starter per se, but he will see the field often as he led NFL De's in tackles in 09, opening at Buffalo, they will try to run the ball and that means MD sees the majority of snaps on 1st and 2nd down imho.
