I don't know of a resource that will allow you to listen to the full game. The NFL has a smartphone app ( Android & iOS ) that has audio clips of...

I understand. I guess the fact that it is merely a possibility doesn't reduce my concerns much. A much more enlightening, comforting, and worthy...

This argument gets trotted out for every young QB who does badly in their first couple of games / years. This argument tends to look like it's...

i just wanted to give you a quick thank you for the reply and the link to your previous post. Awesome stuff as usual CK. Thanks.

One thought that keeps rattling around in my brain. We are taking a subjective standard as the measure of value and then applying it objectively....

Now that we cut C. Johnson I think it's a reasonable idea to start Tannehill against the Panthers at the WR position. Matt Moore needs someone to...

1) Does the cutting of Johnson look bad on Ireland's account? I think Chad was relatively cheap. (925k?) 2) I wonder if V. Davis is a bit more...

I believe the coaching staff said Sean had improved in the intangible areas. I assume they mean attitude, hard work, etc when compared to Davis....

Tanny throws a TD to himself. Fantasy football MVP.

LMFAO! True. It can't be any worse than 'Mondo and the Miami media.

LMAO! Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Not a specfic trait cited nor one mention of what specifcally Harbaugh did that the previous 49er coach...

I was just seeing how far your eqivocation goes. You currently have a pretty flimsy argument. I have still yet to read why specifically the...

So the answer is no.

Is there a 49er equivalent to trading away your best WR?

I am just trying to understand what exactly you are saying. That is why I asked what you classify as short and intermediate and what time period...

Some people are taking the SBO joke way too serious and literal.

What are you classifying as short and intermediate routes and over what time period are you speaking of? When I looked at Henne's split for 2011...

Overall I think you make a great point. I think WCO probably speaks more to a general style than a strict regiment. Historically it has been...

Clay is marked on the roster as FB/TE. He plays both. I tend to label him more a TE because I normally see him on the line of scrimmage instead of...

I meant to say Reggie Bush is a good run & pass catching option. The way I phrased it made it sound like he was a option QB or something. No. :)

That is suposedly McCoys side of the story. Lets wait and see who the new DC is before we swallow it hook line and sinker. McCoy has no idea how...

Stop being safe. Our next HC should be Derrick Zoolander: [IMG]

Miami had a very good defense last year.

Anyone using the phrase "blind hate" in the same context as Henne astounds me. Henne plenty of time and chances here in MIA. I don't care if he...

Hienz Getzwellvet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5g4DgQayaOw I love this movie. Yes. I am part of the problem. :lol:

I would take Polian. His track record is outstanding. Buffalo, Panthers, and Colts.. all of them were great under his tenure there.

First, the examples I picked were to show that it wasn't a waste of a pick because young QB's with potential have trade value in the league. That...

Fair and Good point against my 2 QB in Miami theory. :hi5:

I guess I would argue you don't waste your pick when you draft a 2nd young QB. Mainly because that 2nd young QB is going to have trade value if...

What would that system look like and why would Henne fit into it?

I think you make some fairly good points. You would have to draft 2 QB's that were similar in style and abilitie ( you couldn't run the same...

Henne did have a running game in his first season playing (2009). We had the #4 running attack in the league. Resulted in a negative TD to INT...

Before Henne got hurt this season his stat line was 4 TD's and 4 Int's (passing wise). So why are people still trying to blame Henning and Lee for...

Thanks Padre :up:

I understand that part. But I guess my question is that normally how it's handled? Or is this breaking from the wide tradition in the NFL with the...

So who normally makes the coaching hire decision? Is it the GM, VP of Football Operations, or the owner?

It looks like Matt Moore is going to finish the season with more TD's ( currently has 12 ) than INT's ( currently has 6 ). An achievement sadly...

I admit I have saw him play 1 time this year against TCU. I hardly watched that game but he looked like a nightmare to defend.

Delhomme's stats weren't anything to write home about after Henning's departure (Henning left in Jan. of 2007 I think)....

How do you think it would pan out if Welker and Bess switched teams? I think Bess would be really productive in that NE offense. I think he would...

This article seems to be white washing Ireland a bit. All the mistakes are Parcell's or Sparano's? So who's call was on the nickle back fiasco in...

They should keep Ireland on to evaluate the undrafted free agents. He did hit on Bess, Carpenter, and Wake. Other than that give his *** the boot....

Surely the number of people who would pay good money to cheer their team on to losing are relatively few.

I tend to agree. I felt like a lot of the QB's available were not markedly better than Henne. Especially if you figured in the cost to acquire them.

Just to clarify I don't think many on this board who bash Henne feel that Matt Moore was going to be an upgrade over Henne. That is why there was...

Dierdorf has clearly put forth an argument that we can evaluate in order to find out if there is truth in it or not. Instead people focus on the...

I think that is a good argument. The fans will be less likely to believe Sparano or Ireland if they mentioned it instead of Ross. Fair point.

:) funny man.

Here is my general objection to how Ross is handling this. First, it disrespects Sparano yet again. Sparano already had to deal with the Harbaugh...

I am interest in why you quoted me yet didn't address any points of my post. You are obviously not addressing me. So why quote me?

I love the fact that we should 'open it up'. We couldn't run the ball last year and Henne has yet to throw for more TD's than INT's in a season....

LMAO Prez! My blood pressure raises to unhealthy levels when I post here. It's all my fault. I get too serious and don't keep things in...

Manning, Breese, Brady... does Henne even belong in the same sentence with these guys? Let's not act as if we have a QB of that calibure. The QB's...

Glad to see after being away for a month plus the same old threads are being created. Both parties are at fault. Henne and Henning.

I rewatched the play. You are correct Marshall stopped. So Henne only threw 2 terrible pics... I feel so much better now. THANKS d-bag

I get that to a degree. My point is yardage and points weren't really the issue. We got great production from the offense. Our offense wasn't the...

400+ yards and 24 points not enough says fans.. I love that headline.

So we need more than 400+ yards and 24 points against a top defense? Okay. Seems a bit unreasonable to me, but maybe I am wrong.

LMAO. Touche! Of course if you don't give him over the top Safety help he is going to slip and give up a TD. :lol: I kid. I kid.

Well maybe you made other posts calling out those aspects and I just haven't seen them. My interpretation of your post was "a handful of plays...

This article seems about 1 season to late. I think Hartline surprised many people, but in more ways than just his speed last year.

I am going to get raked over the coals for this, probably rightfully so but.. Pat Whites stat line from his last game ( Mienke Bowl 2009 ): 26...

I get knocking White's play, but the argument that he is taking away reps from the Pennington and Thigpen that they "need" seems to be a bit of a...

Notice he says speed helps you overcome MISTAKES (aka being out of position). Big plays, I stress big plays, that are given up on defense are...

I think you both are right just in different aspects :). By the way there is an awesome video with Singletary describing playing MLB in a Tampa 2...

I am printing those posts out to read damn it!!! I agree that pressure on the QB is key regardless of whether you are playing zone or man....

Are we talking about cover 2 zone ( 2 deep 5 underneath ) or are we talking about Tampa Cover 2 zone ( which is really Cover 3 - 3 deep, 4...

I think Crowder was just saying using zone more often to switch it up. I don't think he was suggesting making cover two our base/staple defense....

I could be completely wrong, and probably am :). But I thought by sticking to their board isn't in reference something like their mock draft. I...

Yea. I haven't seen Misi play, aka game film. I have only seen his combine workouts. That an I think CK did some excellent clips of him. I am...

I agree. If you watch his workouts at the combine it's pretty sick....

I just imagine Parcells walking around like Godzilla smacking partially filled coffee cups and papers off the table while yelling. That would...

Don't mess with JBiebz Alen!!! :cry: Thanks for looking Prez. It's not a big deal I just love reading stuff like that :)

Sorry to be the guy that is asking for all the links, but you do have a link to this? I would be interested in reading it if one exists :)

This tragic case wasn't enough to keep the Super Bowl Champion Saints from playing him last year. The tragedy occurred in 2008; so I assume this...

Comparing Tim Bowens to Dez Bryant gave me a good laugh. Not sure, but those defensive tackles aren't normally known for being selfish. Quite the...

Oh I completely agree. Long term White is going to have to turn into a traditional QB in some form or fashion if he doesn't want to play WR. I was...

This is old but I still love watching it and hearing about Pat White's decision making. I would like to see us run more of the true spread offense...

I definitely understand where you are coming from. Many players in the past have struggled their first year only to blossom later. Now those...

Dear Lord don't bring that season up. I remember that the Draw play was our staple run play. The nightmares... Can't shake the memories...:cry:

They need to leave Pat White in the game to allow him to get into a rhythm!!! They keep pulling him off the field and out of the WildPat/Pistol so...

Quality Post :up:

Doh: Just read Lebron didn't take less money. Well there goes my post :)

I love how Lebron is selfish, yet he just took less money to go play a smaller role on a team in an effort to get a championship. Normally when...

You are probably right. I was just trying to think of a way to get him on the field. I hate to see him sit the bench all year.

Is this the first "Fire OC" thread of the 2010 season. Didn't take long :lol:

There is an article that talks about the Strong Inside LB. I believe this article refers to it as the "TED". This is the role that Crowder and...

I agree. Is Crowder really a fit for the strong side inside linebacker? To me Dobbin's fits that role much better. He seems like a strong, plugger...

Just to clarify you can have an incomplete picture and still come to the correct conclusion. You just can't be 100% sure about your conclusion....

I think it's a little unfair to heap all the blame on the FS. The SS (Bell) made mistakes as well. Also the LB turn over issue I think was just...

Some defensive coaches have a saying that big plays are because of three things. They are missed assignment, missed alignment, and missed tackles....

Shock Jock = a turd covered in skin. EDIT: Sid just wants to come in here and piss you off so you will listen and call into his show. Do yourself...

I think this FO and coaching staff are just flexible. They didn't panic on NT during the draft and they haven't panicked over FS. They will work...

I love ZACH THOMAS. It's still the only jersey I have bought. Class guy, and a true Miami Dolphin. I hate that it's over.

Just for the record I do trust this front office. I just don't like people using that argument to dismiss people who question them.

I was incorrect. Thank you for correcting me. I have read the articles on Sun-Sentinel. It's the best articles that are posted on the Dolphins...

Are they 'professionals'? If they knew so much then why aren't they in the war room? See how cheesy that argument is... I don't get to see what...

Granted it was a bad example. Looking back I see that. It was just what came to mind. People who say 'I trust the professionals' how do you...

I think that is a pretty fair statement. I will say I like the fact that we drafted so many LB's. We really needed an overhaul at that position....

Found this analysis http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1114935

I understand you sentiment, but no one is above questioning. And that is a healthy thing overall. Things might have been better if people would...

Maybe he the FO said "F-it let's play Chris Clemons!" :unsure:

He is the guy who got obliterated playing as a guard in the senior bowl by our first round pick Odrick. Supposedly a great run blocker. Dude...

You aren't helping me you are blowing my mind even MORE! :lol: Jay Ratliff | #90 | NT Height: 6-4 Weight: 303 Age: 28 Odrick NT...

I think the over arching question is what defensive system are we going to run long term and where does Odrich fit into that system. Hybrid - Is...

They don't invite players to NY for the draft unless there is some consensus that they are a top player. Unless they plan on putting this kid...

Thanks. Yea. I think you are spot on about Dan Williams. I think the one thing we can safely ASSume, if you can safely do such a thing, is the...

So we are running a hybrid to better fit our personnel, but we aren't scraping the 3-4 long term? They have been working on this 'tweak' for...

I haven't looked at Langford's pass rush. You might be right. Langford is averaging 2.25 sacks a year currently. I think Odrick will do better...

I definitely understand why some are just 'meh' with this pick. I am pretty good with. Remember that Sparano coached (the South team) in the...

I am definitely recording the draft and not watching it live. Because if we trade out of the first round into the 2nd then we don't pick until...

They must have gotten sick of Seau's babbling in the corner of the locker room while taking a poopy in his depends. Holt gets to change his...

I ASSume he was doubled at Denver. I can't imagine anyone else demanding coverage over Marshall. I think you could argue that he played in the...

Some else put it best. Marshall had a 100 with Kyle Orton... Kyle freakin' Orton. If he can get 100 receptions with Kyle Orton he can do the same...

Absolutely, so the people that claim he 'won' games are just as wrong as those that claim he 'lost' games.

What is he worth then? To some degree you are 'worth' what the market bares. Sometimes markets over and under value things. But it's hard to say...

By the exact same token Tedd Ginn didn't "win" us games either. Every game were TG made a play other players on the team did as well. The NYJ 2...

There were definitely discussion about Crowder, Bess's continued fumble problems throughout the season, Fasano got blamed for the Falcons loss,...

Sparano did say he was 'happy' with our current WR corps just a couple of weeks ago .... :lol: But your point is taken. For the record, I think...

I guess my only point would be don't confuse the arguments "for keeping Ginn" vs "for moving Ginn" as venum toward TG. Without you citing specific...

Because Ginn plays soft. "Soft" and "Parcells'" don't go together. So why keep someone for another year who wasn't going to be on this team long...

Social networking... IT'S THE FUTURE!!! Isn't the future grand?!

Ted Ginn haters aren't to blame. Ted Ginn and/or Cam Cameron are. Bottomline. So people can paint this picture however they want, but it doesn't...

Claiming any one player 'won' a game is pretty tough. Let's take the classic TG Jets game. We won that game by 5 points ( 30 - 25 ). When you...

Actually no. there is more, much more.

I forgot how harsh the reacion to that moment actually was. YouTube- Dolphin Fans Love Ginn Jr. That **** is rough. I still feel uncomfortable...

TG only wins games for the Dolphins. He NEVER loses them.

If Brandt is Parcell's friend who was on the radio I wouldn't put to much stock in his comments. Everything is a smoke screen at this time of the...
