Damn if that ain't the truth. Really though, the only time they should be in there (practice Bubble) is if there is lightning in the area or they are working on something they want to keep under wraps, ala Wildact a couple of years ago. If it's raining with no lightning they should be out there working some wet ball drills or something. they should never go in there just because it's uncomfortable or some stupid thing.
Mind boggling isn't it? Opposing teams come in and realize they can wear down the Dolphins in their own home. In years past you never saw the Dolphins look as wore down and winded, standing around with their hands on their knees as you do now.
Thought it was cute yesterday when we tried to do that to Houston. He look....NE did it to us, so maybe we can do it to them. One problem...we get down to the redzone and can't convert. NE converts every time. HUGE difference. Not sure which was worse... The fact we had to copy NE in order to try and find something that worked at home or the fact that we still can't finish the drill when given scoring opportunities.
I was thinking for a second that I was at that game, and then remembered it was a different Denver game. 12/2/2001 Phins were losing late in the 4th quarter 10-7 to Denver when Mixon intercepted Griese for a pick 6. The stadium was literally shaking when that happened. I was in the upper deck and you could feel it moving. Then Denver fumbled the kickoff and Smith ran it in later on for another TD. Phins won 21-10. That was a fun day.
I can see it's uses, for safety reasons (lightning like you stated) but other than that... during the off season it should be off limits other than during severe weather. The only other time I can see it being useful is for practicing away crowd noise situations... but that's about it.
Since December 27th 2009, the Texans, Patriots and Steelers have more wins at Sunlife stadium than we do.
Yes they do. Omar tell me this. Give this regime Dan Marino as QB and that regime Chad Henne as QB and tell me what the numbers would look like dude.
Wannstedt was 23-9 at home with Jay Fiedler/Ray Lucas/Brian Griese before that ill-fated 2004 season.
Yeah, it's pretty brutal. I left out the 2004 debacle, obviously, but boy, even with his 24-13 total, it's not even close to what we've seen since then. And unless you think Jay Fiedler was better than Chad Henne by a mile, he didn't exactly accomplish it with an all pro QB, either.
There has to be a happy medium. We would flame out at the end of the year at least partly b/c we were worn out but now the bubble has made us too soft so we start like crap, pick it up mid-season and then epically swoon anyway in December. There has to be a way to use the bubble efficiently while still being out there in the ehat enough to get acclimated to it
He mentioned Shula, not Wanny. Besides, Fiedler and Griese outplayed Henne blind folded. Grab Shula and ask him what his record would be if he had Henne. Bring a bucket for when he vomits when you ask the question.
can some one explain tis stat ? is the 101 mean the losses versus wins or does it mean wins verus losses ? I think i am confused which numbers are the wins is what I am asking . That's 101-22-1 versus 12-27. Ouch.
