Everything you said sounds closer and closer to heaven on earth to me.

Hey, I can't be the only dude here with a clue, and an unbiased opinion. :D Joking, tbt I agree with you on a lot of points, just not on this...

Waddle, Ogbah, Campbell, and Armstead are the ones who really give my hopes for this game a reality check. Same with Tua, because whether or not...

Cryptic post is cryptic. Deets?

I already knew that, but posted that believing whenever he has the time to he will be considerate enough to delete the post where he inaccurately...

Dude, you're confusing me with somebody else. Whether or not it is intentional or an accident I cannot say, but don't put words in my mouth. I...

Way to gloss over everything I said, and try to take this thread into a political debate. Good job. As I stated there were two other plaintiffs...

You obviously have access to more facts, claims, and legal precedence than the judge with jurisdiction over the case does. My bad. From now on I'm...

Great list. It's a shame that many won't make it, but there are some absolute sure fire choices there too. So many of my favorite players ever are...

I would not call you dumb, but possibly disinterested in reading another's valid opinion. See my reply to Tuanon4llife's response if you want to...

I don't think anything can explain it better than the judge's ruling on the case's merit to proceed forward into litigation while forcing the two...

Not if he experienced it. Would you still think that if the judge agreed with him and awarded him damages, or the Dolphins settled out of court?...

I could not agree more with that first paragraph. It's funny all it took was ignoring one poster in particular to make most of that disappear....

Speaking the truth does not make one a snitch. If an organization is dirty, then an honest man speaks the truth. Rat's scurry off with their tail...

I cannot argue with any of that, but like I said if McDaniel is the make or break point of contention in hiring the best GM we can bring in, then...

I think that the man was demonized by the perceptions put forth publicly by Tua and the Dolphins organization, and had every right to air Ross'...

For Tua's sake as a human being I hope you're right.

I know, I was just using him to underline the poor decision making and unwillingness to do his job that Grier has shown time in and time out....

100%. Nobody expected the Vikings to be one of the last undefeated teams this year. Flores has done enough on the field each week to prove Ross...

Nice post full of good logic. I will say this. I have clamored for Grier's head on a pike at the front gate, not McDaniel's. That said I have big...

No, according to your cherry picking he should have been fired. My reasoning is that with two Conference Championships, and two Superbowl...

Comparing this Dolphins team to the 49ers team that played one hell of a competitive game in last year's Superbowl, and has made it past the...

They should have refused to a long term contract and franchised him for a year to see if he could repeat his one solid year again. If he did,...

Hey, I just want to point out that I have more than 5 wrong picks. Week 5 was not kind to me, and I was 5-8.

Their fries are still the best though.

I would agree with most of that. I still think Mahomes is a great QB, but has been on a cold streak partially because of some bad decisions, but...

Personally, I think we stand a far better chance of winning if he doesn't throw that much. However what I think and the plays McDaniel calls are...

I said this over a week ago, and had people saying no to keep him the rest of the year for consistency. I guess some people would prefer us to...

Not sure. Last I saw he practiced in red this week, and is questionable for the game. I hope so. Having three sets of fresh legs in the backfield...

That may be true, but I can only go by my experience which was said poster had a major hard on for trolling me while spewing insult after insult,...

I'm glad he's recovered, and just hope for his sake he can stay healthy and suffers no long term after effects.

Yeah, the injuries happened while watching the Broncos at Saints game. Hell I felt some of those hits.

I am really interested to see how Wright shoulders the load. I think he will rise to the occasion. Imo so far he is one of Grier's few and far...

Thursday New Orleans Sunday Jacksonville Seattle Buffalo Cincinnati Green Bay Miami Detroit Philadelphia LA Rams Washington San Francisco...

I don't know. If Hill gets a fire lit under his a** he's still one of the most dangerous big play threats in the league. Between him, Waddle, and...

I hang much of that on Grier providing him with a very questionable roster to put on the field each week. Flores was fired, yet Grier was not. Now...

Largely by being a disciplinarian, and not coddling our new high profile QB. You say potatoes, I say potahtoes.

100% dead on facts.

If all Ross wanted was some dude to suck for him, then there are much cheaper options available.

34, most of them scored by Buffalo.

The cats vs the cat ladies. Dubbed the Pussycat Brawl Bowl.

I only got the Denver game wrong. It was my biggest toss up, and it bit me. I could have went either way. Still I got some sweet redemption after...

Someone put their hoighty toity pants on because the truth offends them. Fwiw I referenced a shared economic system and civil rights, not politics.

One stood for a confederation of state governments that wished to maintain the course of basing their entire economic system on brutally abusive...

You're definitely not wrong on that last fact. The door to butthurt was thrown wide open, and Saleh was just the first dude to walk out through...

Fair enough aside from the Confederate and Nazi flags which have a definitive association with certain horrific atrocities. Besides that I agree...

You say that as if you are stating Israel is the victim between Lebanon and Israel. That would be a statement regarding a political position, or...

This. I am of partial Ukrainian/Slavic descent. If I chose to wear a pin to show my support for my ancestral heritage, especially during an...

It was already stated in the thread that it was part of "Heritage Month" in the NFL, and all coaches were encouraged to wear items that symbolize...

Fair enough, though with our record with him under center, and his nagging injury concerns it could be argued that no one should bring up Tua as a...

That brings to mind the best description of Grier's tenure as GM I can think of; could've, should've, would've, but didn't.

This dude is doing his best to earn that rep. [IMG]

You do have a point on QB's. Personally I think that the real defining characteristic between great college QB's, and great pro QB's is how they...

The man has every right to show support for his family and people, but as the public face of a high profile organization you have to be careful...

Been saying that since my very first day here. I agree. If you cannot run the ball enough to force the safeties to come up, then even with the...

What I don't understand is why he didn't start that plan for the Titans game.

My days here involve way less stupid bs with him on ignore.

Good catch. I was thinking of John, but typed Jim.

Well said. I would also say Mike Tomlin and Jim Harbaugh are two coaches no player wants to get on the bad side of.

Wasn't Flores ****canned for being a more disciplinarian coach? The Vikings seem to be doing pretty damn good underneath his coaching.

Thursday San Francisco Sunday Chicago Baltimore Green Bay Houston Tampa Bay Philadelphia Indianapolis Denver Pittsburgh Atlanta Detroit...

In which case McDaniel could look at the rest of this season as an attempt to prove to the new GM he deserves to have his job next year. It might...

I have to disagree. If we were even an average team I would agree consistency is better than upending our front office, but we're not. Right now...

Because in the Corporate Real Estate world brown nosing is a path to success. Ross hasn't realized that it doesn't work the same way on the...

Nah, clean up the poop and move on. You'd get no similar sympathy from Fireman Ed.

Now if only Ross would take a lesson from this and can Grier before the next game.

Well, now we know why McDaniel doesn't work them too hard in practice. He's afraid they'll fall apart before they get out on the field for a game.

Fwiw, I'm not saying he's the second coming of one of the greatest backs to ever play the game. What I see is that he's got shifty hips, makes...

Ooof, did not see some of those coming. I mean come on, the Jags or Cards winning those games was not even on my radar. On one hand I'm glad...

I thought the same thing during preseason..I was baffled at them not working him into rotation in the first couple games. If he stays healthy,...

Beating the Pats is a good start to any football day. Doing it in Foxboro is the icing on the cake. If we beat the Jets once, and can handle the...

Nice, led in a game before the last second, we beat the Pats, and the Bills and Jets both lost. All things considered today was a damn good day.

I thought he was trying to get through a similar partial sale to a private equity firm?

Even injured he grades way above every other member of our offensive line week in and week out. He is on the end of his contract guarantee this...

Ì agree. DE's and OL's are the defensive front 7 players that get the most money in contract negotiations. LT's and RT's, and Centers get the...

I just read an article mentioning the possibility of trading Armstead who is by far our best offensive lineman for a younger prospect. I found...

This one cannot be, as no evidence solidly disproving it can be provided. No need to keep going as its lack of success is not a historical fact,...

I was about to say something, but now I see your logic.

I get that, but the post was a completely hypothetical question. Personally I like your pick too. He's got enough of that old-school mentality to...

LOL those glasses.

What's funniest about this thread is I literally asked for others to name whoever they themselves would choose, but all I get is a hate parade...

I think Detriot and the Ravens have both proven the blueprint Cowher and Billick both utilized to great success is still one of the best...

It's my opinion, it can't be wrong as it is neither provable or unprovable because it never happened. :words:

I know what you mean.

Voicing an opinion is my prerogative. Tbt I will say what I feel no matter who doesn't like it. No f's given.

I never said someone was not a real fan. And speaking the truth isn't a flex, it's a fact.

Oh my, whatever shall I do. Some guy online who doesn't know jacks**t about me is haranguing me. I feel so bad now. :crapstrom: :jt0323:

Campbell got a lackluster Dolphins team to play hard for him as interim coach, and he wasn't even given a chance the next year despite performing...

We have so many authorities who is a fan here, who is a troll here. Lol When did you watch your first Phins' game? I'd say odds are unless you...

It could be argued that McDaniel is not ready now, and Campbell is.

There's an innuendo in their that I am trying to figure out whether I should jump on or not. All I can say is I hope they don't score again tonight.

93 yrd drive lots of power run, and tough between the tackles goal line push for the score. Hi Mike, there's a real football game on ABC. You...

Since I don't have ESPN I get to watch our former coach who knows how to take a team to another level lead a team that looks like they want to win...

At least the commercials are doing their jobs.

You're right. Romeo was 2/3 the way to 74 when he retired. My point was bring in Billick with a hand picked OC to groom as HC when he retired.

Pete Carrol is going on 73 yrs old and easily found a job. Marv Levy coached till almost 73 yrs old. Bill Belechik coached to 71 yrs old and did...

Haha, sorry I don't hide behind alt names. I am myself, the only one out there. I think you might be projecting again.

That was before the rough shots. It literally looked like the Ravens were intercepting play calls from the sideline at some points in the game....

Wow, just wow.

Hey, how are you liking the low road?

Man, there are a lot of paranoid people here. I'm me. Never registered here before that I recall. Good riddance, and buh-bye.

I agree. I gotta laugh because after the first game a couple commentators mentioned that it looked like Henry was past his prime, and had lost a...

Never have I been happier to pick the wrong teams than the Denver/Jets and Ravens/Bills games today. :smile: I'll take my two L's gratefully for...

First, we can beat both the Jets and the Pats without Tua if we start running the ball consistently. With the speed of all three of our backs...

That may be true, but did you also see how many defenders he was carrying forward as they tried to bring him down on a couple plays. Henry might...

100% truth. I did not get that play calling at all. I mean yes, our offensive line doesn't instill fear in anybody, but Idgaf you still have to...

I'm here myself. I prefer the historical prototype pocket passer. Give me a big accurate arm, and a quick release. After that if he can run when...

Last week he showed flashes, but Rodger's biggest strength has always been that if you flush him out he can kill you either running for first...

True, but he couldn't have done what Rogers did last week.

Been on an old school horror movie kick lately. Nosferatu (1979) The Company of Wolves (1984)

Tbt if Tua came back on fire even with a 1-5 record we could get in the playoffs. Especially if we find a real running game in the interim....

And hopefully that will never change.

It's a free world, and a new day. Do whatever feels good.

I think running close to 1/3 of our snaps alternating between Mostert, Achane, and Wright in a two back formation in the backfield with Huntly...

You sound like a politician saying anyone who disagrees with you has a bias. The only thing I have ever said is that he lacks arm strength. That...

No, you're putting words in my mouth. I said I hope he listens to them above all else. Nothing more, nothing less.

I would hope that is never a factor in anyone's personal decisions. I damn sure don't let it factor into mine.

Excellent point. That is exactly why I said despite how much he might not want to right now he needs to ignore that competitive inner voice, and...

I've always liked Merril as a commentator. You will never hear any amount of BS come out of his mouth.

And yet I would take him over every QB we can put on the field this week.

That about sums up our teams issues, and the issues with Grier's management of the front office.

Tbt I really hope you're right about Baltimore pulling out the win, but I think Buffalo is gonna be too much for them to handle even at home. So...

Pennington is an awesome guy, a good QB, but I don't see him in the HOF. Ryan might get in, but it will take a while if he ever does. Bledsoe I...

Then let me put it this way. Joe Flacco will be in the Hall of Fame. I would be surprised if he does not make it in on his first or second year...

There's nothing to criticize there, so glad you're not one to do so Bro. I'm well aware of his passing stats, and how much of that yardage came as...

Let me put it another way. Bob Greise did not have record breaking stats in any category. What he did do is lead one of the best complete teams...

Why are so many around here obsessed with using the word dumb? As an adhominin deragotory statement t does nothing to bolster an argument, and...

Truth is not spelled T-R-O-L-L. And believe me I am not happy.with the truth about this team. The ignore button can be your friend.

It's all about that YAC baby.

Beautifully said. It was that team led by Coach Shula who gave the Dolphins organization an aura of class and discipline that lasted for decades....

Not only that, for a good while he had one of the best power run games in the league thanks to a total beast named Jamal Lewis. Our GM could...

Number one it's a good thing to not go around telling a grown man what to do, but it's OK, I know you only do it because you don't have to look...

Flacco Is so accurate on long passes that they.did a segment on Stan Lee's show "Super Humans" about the dude when he was in college. I wanted us...

Those 12 passes were not 40+ yards in the air. They were 40+ yards including yards after the catch. Why does everyone want to rewrite the history...

Flacco is better than every QB this team has had since Marino, and a strong argument could be made he is better than Dan was. He is and always has...

And 3 weeks later this thread is dead, but loaded with irony. In a nutshell it's pretty much just like our season.

Dammit, I had blocked those cursed names out of my memories years ago. Now the trauma and PTSD are flooding back like a Tsunami. Not even joking....

Joe Flacco perfectly makes my point. The man doesn't just have a cannon, the dudes arm is like a guided missile launcher.

Per Sports Illustrated in 2023 Tua had a total of 11 completions of 40+ yards, most of which came as the benefit of yards after catch. His...

Sorry, I misunderstood your intent. For one I am not saying a canon arm equals greater accuracy, but that all other things being equal the...

Tua's accuracy quite frankly sucks on passes that travel over 40 yards in the air. Look at our first two games. He routinely misses the target on...

Hey, you can call the limits of human anatomy and the laws of physics idiotic all you want, but you'll still be wrong. Let me ask you this. If...

I still say they should have done what it takes to get Garopollo.

Truth. We are past the point incremental improvement is a welcome sign for this current version of the team.

That might be window dressing covering unvoiced frustration. He really is hamstrung as the head coach and public face of the franchise from being...

If he missed the boat, then does that mean we can't ship him out?

Deep ball accuracy is a product of arm strength. While the latter doesn't guarantee the former, you absolutely can't have the former without the...

Hey, I know a team that could use a GM. You looking for a new job? Yes I am joking, kind of, but truly believe half of us here could do better...

Do you blame Tua's lack of wins against playoff caliber teams with winning records on his play, McDaniel's play calling, or none of the above?...

Speaking of horrible front office decisions Miami has made. ‍

Clever plays will only get so far. When the opposing team is reading your play caller's mind, then only smash mouth getting dirty in the trenches...

And this brings us back to Chris Grier. Tbt you could have put Brady or Marino at the height of their career out there, and our odds of winning...

100%

I don't know about whipping his @$$, I don't want Dan in jail. As for Seattle I like the Seahawks, so that would not be ideal for me. Like I said...

We aren't talentless, but the fundamental building blocks are just not there. It's like trying to build a big glitzed out resort on sand without...

Stop it, you're gonna make me cry. lol

There are times a pick is worth trading away for the right player, but relying on it as much as this team has just shows how off base Grier's...

I agree with everything except your opinion on Grier.

I have two words for you, Tony Sparano. Dude literally had to fist pump for made field goals because our offense sucked so bad under him.

Garoppolo was a no brainer whether Tua went on IR or not in my opinion. Best case scenario Tua comes back early and we have the best #1 and #2 QB...

I'm not the one making snide passive aggressive digs at another person for pissing contest forum points. I don't know whether this is you...

Who's trolling? Is this a confession I'm reading? It seems like one, albeit half-hearted.

Nothing says low class like making a baseless and false accusation.

No offense, but I think I am going to value TJ Watt's opinion as a multiple time Probowl player over any forum denizens.

Watt's exact point is that in the middle of a play between the hashes as a QB is scrambling it is not that cut and dry. They do not have a big...

For those in the thread blaming Tua for not having the presence of mind to slide this is a great statement on the matter by JJ Watt....

I'm hoping after the bi-week we get to see Jaylen Wright on the field for his first big regular season showing. The kid looked amazing in...

Fwiw this is not a dig at Mike McDaniel. I have to say since the Tua injury I have seen nothing but pure class and genuine concern for a person he...

Foolish? LOL Yeah, that's why the Dolphins fired that team doctor for his negligence, well that and PR appearances. I don't care what reasons...

As much as I would love to see him in our front office I cannot call that bad news. I'm from Florida, but my family is from Connecticut and huge...

That is 100% spot on. Now it's up to the NFL leadership, meaning the team owners and the commissioner, to do the right thing and show that they...

Owe him legally, no. But should they still pay him? Absolutely yes.

I think Bill could be a great stand alone GM. I don't think it was a lack of ability in picking talent and running the front office as much as it...

First I like Ryan Tannehill, but agree to an extent. I think they should start shopping new GM's now, and once they have a handful of strong...

We never should have let Dan Campbell go. I'd take him over Flores or McDaniel 10 out of 10 times. I liked the guy as our coach, and as a person...

I don't see why not, but maybe the team should give our two backups an honest chance before they.make that call?

I truthfully don't care how it affects our salary cap. If the man decides to retire for the best interests of his young family, then the Dolphins...

First, who the hell is Steven? Second, have you been watching today's game? Been a lot of screens.

100% facts.

That is patently untrue. Tua's average yards in the air per pass last year was under 8 yards. That placed him at 17th in the league, so...
