I agree that playing Tannehill now will benefit us more next year. He can't go into next year with the same WR group. I would like to see him hit...
Roll out right
Go for it
Tannehill has missed two sure TD's today.
Agreed. Also, Shou does a nice job consistently making you look at every possibility in numerous posts and I respect that. There isn't always a...
Well, the below average online play is somewhat expected. Stacking the box hampers the running game and creates blocking indecision( pressure on...
Ryan Tannehill has the all the tools to become very good Quarterback in the NFL. We know it was never the intention to start him this year, but...
Ok, you can keep going off topic...I'll stop replying after this so we can move on. The topic is, " Concerns with Ryan Tannehill," not what would...
What was the topic..? ...No, he's not the sole problem....he doesn't have the talent around him.This isn't even a question to debate. My original...
My original post & point is Tanny is not the problem and he lacks talent around him. This isn't news. Ireland is on the hot seat and should be.
And why would I care who was on the 2008 team? It's irrelevant. We're are talking about today, not years ago. New coach, new system, different...
Personally...I hope he can escape the year without injury. The offensive talent on this team is pathetic.
I'm not going to get into a debate and I just want to make a point. He is no where near as experienced as other rookie QB's. he has the raw...
Jake Long gets blown up, offensive line looks weak and we are playing one of the worst defenses in football....it's hopeless. They look...
All my reasons to keep him would be excuses.
Simple. fire him.
The Offense is the biggest issue and if the Oline can't stay healthy, it could get ugly fast. They key will be keeping Tanny from getting killed,...
No more than 5.
winning is a culture....accepting failure by leadership
just my experience from being around a couple elite athletes. I'd never see them partying after a loss & not in public for sure
Honestly, you can say it's not a big deal, but it just goes to show ..... Winning is not his priority in life and it shows. Bad signing & horrible...
Flying across the nation to interview a coach w/o firing your existing coach 1st, defies belief. Hiring Clevelands OC when your jobs on the line...
and two years ago I said he needed to be replaced and I wasn' t taken seriously.
Instead of someone having the intuitive intellect to say, Henne is showing a better presence in the pocket, showing more athleticism and being...
That's why I come here among real fans & ignore the media. As a scout, many times I'd laugh my butt off listening to most of them dicuss topics...
IMO, many of these "analysts" Herm included just follow the consensus and dont do their own research. They just look at the fact Miami looked to...
He might be a brief topic of conversation....but there are other issues to consider with him.
Muck, So far so good. Its early, but I like what I see & I like the offensive style very much. The offensive scheme gives him more options! One...
I have said this many times, that the problem with Miami's offense, well main problem, was the play calling and playing scared( in simple terms)....
Dont panic yet, as Jake long will go along way into solidifying the Oline. That part needs to gel over the first few games. We will need to rely...
As Revis said, "The tape doesn't lie." I just hope the Defense plays better when it counts.
Sounds like the start of a Thread thats sour grapes and envious. Who starts a thread on an opposing teams chat board with that title? ( and don't...
Is it just me or does Griese mumble allot?
Thomas runs high, fumbles 's are a concern, blocking a concern. Henne, new OC, should be better! Bush, a situational RB....... many issues, no...
Will that change..... With the new OC?
Focus now(?), how'd we go from Henne to Marino?
No holding back, we viewed Miami's O as one and done. Unload 1st Qtr and unable to adjust. Offensive IQ was below average. Will that change........
Miami media & their football knowledge/ scares me..... It's very weak. Omar Hyde? Give CK the job....Seriously ! 10x's more talent!...
I'm glad to see Young was never an option. Winning record? Maybe Tenn was just a complete team & don't give Young the credit for it. I didn't like...
Compensation was devalued when Kyle said, "get me the heck outta here" and Elway endorsed Tim Tebow (WTH was he thinking?) Who knows right? I...
Oh, and I'm sure Brandon Marshall is going crazy right now and is clearing out a locker next to his and parked at the airport parking lot tonight,...
Kyle Orton...We'd be so lucky. IMO, very good QB and a serious upgrade. I'm a fan. Denver's loss.
Actually, he has a high football IQ and did well in interviews. He is an intelligent kid and can identify protections quickly, etc etc. Thats not...
No, I think you are being to critical of yourself. In interviews, like this one, you just need to stick to your guns(as you did) Honestly. You...
It was refreshing to hear Ck and I am SO TIRED of people in the media that act like that interviewer. It really gets me IRATE when I hear someone...
Off the record, on the record.... the media blows it out of proportion...the only people concerned and that have "questions", are in the media....
everyone around the league boycott one game- how much money would the league lose- everyone around the league boycott one game- how much money...
If an investor wants to make a new franchise, in essence a new team, he creates jobs. Without owners there isn't a league. There will always be...
I am not a Cam Fan. I didn't read Boomers analysis of him, but to me he is a personal risk and not going to be a consistent QB that can win...
I am not touching Cam Newton with a 1st round pick. #1 quality for a QB is football intelligence, #2 is pocket presence tied with Accuracy.
Mangini first caught the attention of Bill Belichick, under whom he would coach for nine seasons, as a 23-year-old ball boy with the Cleveland...
I am not onboard either.:up:
Sure...just a coincidence. Oh, and bring Jeff Ireland with you. He likes Disney's rides:lol:
Marinefinfan, As long as that is what you believe. He flew there in the middle of the night before he signed with SF to ask him questions. Uh huh....
He wants to win and is willing to spend money. Ireland is the key here. Talent wins. The media can blow everything out of proportion and he did...
I have had some time to think about this. I didn't want to react right away. Did all of this embarrass me? Honestly...yes. Will I get over it....I...
Good stuff.
Nice. I asked some friends about him. PM me and I'll share. Seems like he has all the tools, good on the run, ability to reload and clean...
I am not saying he is the next coming or he should of been etc etc. I will say he is capable, a gamer and can sling it. As a 7th round pick from...
Keep in mind, Thigpen's history, and when he performs the best, is in the spread offense. He can make all the throws, has a good arm and is...
Miami just played the three most physical teams in the NFL back to back to back, off their bye week while they were well rested too. Pittsburgh,...
I agree 100%- Great post!
I know you meant good w/this post. But some may misinterpret. I liked how Thiggy rolled out and also ran w/the ball. If he can protect against...
Yes, the phones are ringing. Doesn't look good for the injuries.
Honestly, I like the forums because I get intelligent thoughts and feelings from my Dolfan brothers. When you new posters decide to antagonize...
Okay, Im signing off. Good luck and Padre.....Henne looks awful. He might of been mentally out of practice this week. He will need to get hot in...
You forgot the part of me taking another 100mg of zoloft
Okay, don;t lose focus on us
fake FG?
I didn't rewind, did he?
It looked like he out ran his blocking
wow, that was awful! I can see at mid field, but at your own 29? DESPERATION!
Not an accurate throw. 0-1
I want to see Henne use play action. You know it was in the game plan!
OKAY OFFENSE.....air it out and be aggressive!
Uh oh! Where is the run D? Sean Smith got tied up. Just a good run. Hey, they are a great offense and score so don;t get all over the D. We just...
If he turns around its a INT
Can you get Comeback player of the year on two plays?
COME ON!!! be positive~!
Running!~! Wooo ~~
I LOVE IT!! PASS TO Polite!! USE THOSE BACKS!
Wow!!! is that staged, LOL! ALL THE PENNY conversation out the window. Thig is inactive
dislocated finger?
Titans passD is suspect
Okay, you are the offensive play caller...what do you call?
How about a fade to Marshall? END zone fade?
Sweet on the run pass!
The oline needs to protect today
Okay, Chad or should I say Henning? Lets air it out and get a TD
Fumble
It's not really about him saying, "Hey, I don't know if I can do this." You are taking a shallow path to thinking about this. It is about the...
It is an awful decision, no matter how it plays out. As far as Omar the writer goes, thats the worst piece of gossip I have ever heard. All I have...
I cannot make any sense of this. :no:
Intelligent thoughts. I respect your opinion.
True. Penny will throw the up for grabs ball on the sideline more than anyone. You get the TD pass in the endzone, but just made the running...
Because Henning just gives Henne such a great game plan and play calling ability and such a well balanced offensive scheme, that he should be a...
Henne was afraid to be aggressive as it was, now he may even be more gun shy if he does come back in.
Do we remember what Penny's downside was? uhhhhhh.... no arm. Its probably good for 3 games at best.
Thats it Tony...if it backfires you just lost your job. When you get tossed out the door, please take Henning with you.
Wow, Is Tony making the right decision. JA wasn't a good special teams player? Cut him in the middle of the season? We'll see.
I have been saying this. re-read my posts. Tony doesn't get creative and gets out coached. He is an offensive line coach at heart. Smart, tough,...
I can take any QB and show you the mistakes. Thats why the completion %'s aren't 100%. You get success a little better than 60% of the time. As a...
Henne, I have bit my tongue for as long as I can.Henne is a young QB. Does he have a 53% completion ratio like Sanchez? Does he have a balanced...
Miami has a young defense with unrealistic expectations. There are a couple missing pieces, but it is improving. The talent just isn't there yet....
Previous Post! I will say that the offense is missing an identity IMO. Are you a smash mouth offense? Thats what I think Miami has to do to be...
I TOLD EVERYONE>>>>>RONNIE BROWN is the answer. Why doesn't anyone listen
Your description of Identity is your understanding. In football circles it is a mentality that gains momentum and confidence from being successful...
I said this back on Oct 5th. I agree 100% I will say that the offense is missing an identity IMO. Are you a smash mouth offense? Thats what I...
I will say that the offense is missing an identity IMO. Are you a smash mouth offense? Thats what I think Miami has to do to be successful....
Bottom line, special teams blew up and Henne is colorblind throwing to the wrong jerseys. Hard to overcome.
Who knows...but if he stays I know who is to blame.
It was deeper than the ST. It was the poor decisions of Henne. Its the progressions...he doesn't see the whole field. If I could guess, I would...
Trust me, this owner will be having a behind the scenes conversation with Parcells & he'll be driving back to Miami come Tuesday. Time...
More than frustrating is right. It's down right embarrassing! All the talent on this team, the 1st one I personally look at is the Head Coach....
The bye week couldn't of come at a better time. Personally, I need a bye week from watching this team! :no::tantrum:
Wildcat needs to be killed. Is the head coach going to claim this team! Screw blaming Henning. Who's team is this~
Personally, there isn't one area of focus. I can see many challenges ahead. I could talk about the pass rush, poor tackling, blown secondary...
IMO, I am not a Kiper fan as he is a 1st round "stater of the obvious" as we call him. I honestly believe that Miami had one to two things in...
Q: Do you have any regrets not accepting Bill Parcells' contract offer back in November? A: "There's no regrets. It wasn't the right time. We...
If that isn't the worst piece of journalism, I dont' know what is. :no: He pulled out because of a "so called injury" because he doesn't want to...
It would be hard to let him go, due to the lack of veteran leadership and lack of depth at the LB position. There would have to be major...
There isn't a soul in the Ravens front office that doesn't know Ryan is a _______!. Jets= School on Saturday's - NO CLASS!
good one
He is a tough one to figure out. But no denying that speed!
Hey my fellow Dolphin fans.............shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............. Jets fans.....Listen.........listen.........hear that? Shhhhh, can you...
.....and this is why I never follow the media and come in here to get my Dolphin sports news. 90% of "sports guru's" don't watch the game, film or...
It may be too late to turn around the season, only the next two weeks will tell. I can say with definitive certainty that Miami would be 4-2 with...
And Brees? Hey, as time progresses he will learn his WR's and vice versa. It doesn't make him a bad QB. Sure, it upsets fans, but he is a star in...
Thats just awful coaching. Period.
Are you still confused?
Henne looks very good to me & is in "obvious" need of more talent at the WR position. All the WR's are average at best.
Well, if that isn't the most polite "slam" i have heard in a while. I have a different take. Number one it is in Miami. Crowd noise will make a...
It's good to be seen. I think the reason so many in football circles we excited watching the game is the fact that Miami's coaching staff did such...
Welcome to The Bill Parcells era.I don't think that it worries any Miami players or coaches. Bottom line is Miami was more physical and they will...
HA! shhhhhhhhhhhh. We only talk about positives here. He has it in him to run for the hills, but he needs to be a more complete player though. One...
Also, if you look at my posts before the game....I might of mentioned that you would see a throw from the wildcat and there would be multiple...
I TOLD you guys Henne could play. :up: Incredible......I am speechless ....amazing!
Tell ya what Ted. Just quit talking, quit apologizing and start making plays. Period.
I think you will see more formations with both backs in the backfield and a little more of Cobb in the passing game. Number one, better options...
OMG! I was thinking the same thing! :knucks:
I am glad you have a good track record. I wouldn't know anything about that:knucks:
I doubt that! He will see a ton of firsts this year. Many new things. Different players handle situations and challenges differently. He will make...
different philosophy. different offensive system. Marino would dislike this offensive system.....I already know this is true. Henne is capable of...
You are right and I got off topic. Just came to my mind I guess. Bottom line; Henne can't impress you on the sideline or anyone for that matter....
:up::theman::party:
I'll be the first to make a bold statement. Lets call it what it is....... If Chad gives you the best chance to succeed, that is a bold...
No, but don't expect him to be a veteran playing at a high level, because there is only so much you can do watching and practicing. Game speed is...
Oh my! oh My!....He can make all the pro throws and has a very good arm. He HASN"T played in a game that counts when the blood is flowing! He has...
I have one that I didn't see mentioned and that is the ability to stuff the run and consistent play at DT. The special teams will need to...
the idea is not to just pass under 10 yards, its being able to have the ability to spread the field and the posing threat......if not, those 3rd...
This is a very good observation and if you think things will change in the regular season, you would be mistaken. It is a ball control offense and...
There is no crying in football!!!!!!!!!!
CK, you know I respect every fiber of your football intelligence, right? I do. Wonderlic Score ......... do they still give those, really. Damn, I...
Typical. Don't get caught up in he said, she said and media. It is not uncommon for news to spread just to raise or drop someone's value. If he...
Ok, my last shot of the day. There were underlying "factors" there, so I know we have just washed that under the bridge. When you just use the...
You have been watching too much Kiper. Hey, where is the smiley face for Blah! LOL.
really, is his career ready to be evaluated already? :tongue2:
DOes anyone here remember someone mentioning "how can Miami obtain more draft picks" and moving Satele? Hmmmmmmm.......never doubt the master:knucks:
I completely missed the career of CK Parrothead too.
I can make the grocery list, but someone else goes to the store to buy the groceries.
I can't see him going any higher that the 4th round.
Joking obviously:up: I'll spend some time this weekend looking at your nice well thought out questions and try to answer some to the best of my...
HA. I agree with you. I am completely lost as to what Miami has plans for especially when we see each other quite a bit out on the trail, but...
thanks guys. I am out. I'll check back from time to time. Love my Fin Fans.
well, there is a difference in opinion here. I think Ray lewis is surrounded with so much talent, he is often untouched. He is smart and puts...
A top prospect at his position, smart and good in coverage. Against the run he is not as good as the elite. I think he missed a year, I would have...
and he knows this. that is why its also easy to see why he makes plays. As a Miami fan you can view him as a Zach Thomas in the film room, a...
ha. You won't be alone on this one. There will be many people on your side on this point
Jim, this forum i visit is to educate and share opinions. The mature thing to do is read people's opinions and add valuable content. I haven't...
the most educated one. i can see your concern, but understand there is a learning factor, coachable factor and at this point all the negatives...
i am scouting him, met him and dont know what u are talking about. Here is tidbit from ESPN. I don't have time to discuss. but if you get a...
Ummmm. I don't honestly know what you see or what responsibility he has on the play in question. He is exceptional at read and recognition. IT IS...
read the damn article. he has surgery. he was born deaf in both ears and now has slight hearing in one ear after 6 surgeries. Damn, people. Boomer...
ah, thats college for ya. no big deal
It is way too early to target a player in the draft, but if I was building this defense, i would start from the inside DT, ILB and this kid would...
Miami won't take him, but he is a high motor powerful impact player. He is a football player. I don't care about the picky scouts critiques, this...
the thing with Dorsey is he has to be used right. he isn't in a good situation in KC right now with the scheme
Rey Maualuga | ILB
The line was missing starters and the line depth usually gets weaker as you go further in the depth chart and showed inexperience. Jake long...
The game was lost do to turnovers, lack of a ground game and poor offensive performance. The defense didn't play its best game and that is also a...
you can blame chad all you want, but one must understand this: IF you want a QB to be the primary reason you win a Superbowl, then don't get Chad....
You nailed it
I will be under fire for my comments, but look at my history in the draft and I should gain some credibility here. Miami had a nice turn around...
Bell is solid and a favorite of mine, but they need a high draft pick in the secondary at safety to make a difference. This will be a main focus...
I wouldn't expect the same success with a more difficult schedule, but this isn't a two year fix. The defense needs more tweaking. This will be...
Thats the safe choice and will help lure free agents, but Henne is going to compete in training camp and will need playing experience to grow. You...
bottom line is its tough to win big games w/o a big arm at QB and a WR to spread the field
Who knows how it will unfold, But I think Miami will come out passing, spread em and use miss direction to see if they can set up some early...
:pity::cry: :cry: :pity:
your like school on Saturday, NO CLASS.:cry:
I would look for Miami to take shots down field early, very early and a few times if they get in good situations like 2nd and short or first down.
they have difficulty against well balanced lines Offense and Defense. The way to beat the Ravens is to win the line of scrimmage and run, run,run....
He is in the locker room interviewing players. Give the guy his due.:up:
I will tell you that I am very excited about signing Pennington! Awesome move. He is smart and with a excellent running game, he will thrive. WOW,...
I didn't get to see it so thank you for the nice play by play
I wouldn't think releasing a new second rounder would be a smart move if a veteran came in. I would be more inclined to believe McCown would be...
The "G" man
what you have to understand is Taylor is getting the message that Parcells isn't going to afford him any special treatment and is less than...
Church has a very good chance of being a excellent player. He hasn't been a RF before and is better suited for it. He was a diamond in the rough....
and if he is trouble now, imagine when he gets comfortable. He is " a problem " waiting to happen and The Mets saw it coming. Church and Schneider...
FIRING SCOUTS? who picks them........fire them.....the scouts just give you what you ask for:tantrum::lol:
anyway, nice job Chris. I like hearing your opinions more than the players analysis though. nice work
oh okay......as you say.....my bad
A sports writer( gossip journailist) will write his thoughts on a subject, such as Parcells and Beck, then the stories flow from there. Most...
no, not quite. Maybe for some media types, but there were many that were doubting his career wouldn't last long.....the knee wouldn't hold up....
i really think you guys are jumping the gun. I wouldn't write Beck off just yet.
hey, were you not the one who said Dorsey does not fit our defense? Didn't I say you may not be looking at this with a open mind, because he is...
This is all i will say on the subject.......... look at Dan Marino and his scouting report out of college...mobility? Accurate? Tough senior year...
I think Parcells is playing his head game here. They need jason and want him to think no one offered anything for him. They also want him to...
and the fact that there isn't pressure to start right away with a low salary to boot
Forgot to look at when you wrote this and sorry for the delay in the response, but Jake can and will be a left tackle. Everyone is perfect, right?...
this years Quinn?
he will. the first year will be a learning experience, but he will. Not too many OT shut out a elite rusher. LONG IS THE BEST PICK....don't be so...
Ask for a first to get a second, ask for a second to get a third or forth.
now we can look to round two and a defensive LB or DE. QB ...only if a trade happens for more picks. ONLY
And the number one pick is..................................
have faith in me:up:
Offensive lineman are never a sexy pick until mid year when you are jamming the ball down an opponents throat and holding the ball for 38 minutes...
Good to see you!
Well said!!!!!!
uh..................who is screwed?
lets give this thread a look again:yes:
i was in discussion with a close friend with the Skins that said it has never been in question. I said all along that he was the target and still...
yeah, its very good. may have nailed it. we'll see. i don't agree with vernon at 1, but you may have it right. gutsy call...nice job
thats a gutsy call on your part.
Interesting. really, you think he may be a bust? i don't think he will be a bust by any means, but he may not live up to number one, two or...
Honestly, you are better off doing your own scouting. This is the worst year I can remember for Kiper. He is totally lost and confused this year
Kiper changes his mind on picks like the wind. Kiper is the draft "expert" that i choose to ignore. He was on an NFL show saying Miami will take...
Great Job on the #1 pick!
did someone say we are trying to iron out a deal w/jake long on ESPN? HMMMMMMMM....who'd a thought? nfl.com The presence of his agents...
Dorsey is an unbelievable talent and would love to have him. I think he is going to be more successful in a 4-3....but i see you covered your self...
Well, you aren't alone in that theory by any means. There have been many mistakes made and it is not a science. This is just my opinion and I...
from my I phone its hard to type , sorry! I am out on the town two days after the flu and the beer is smooth! I am outwith Charles Oakley! He can...
Chris, two gap? What are you reading bro? Good job, and I cannot disagree with you at all. You are in the majority. The best pick for Miami is...
. you may be right, but I think you are under estimating him. There are exceptions to every position. Zach comes to mind. Too little, right?...
If healthy he is the best Defensive player on the board, period. Chris long gives a defense flexibilty due to his ability, but won't dominate at...
and here is a perfect example of a guy that is a little undersized, barely........and is dominant as a player as there is in college football...
