It’s the game that’s traditionally closest to what a regular season game will be. The starters will likely play a full half and likely into the 3rd Quarter. It’s the first game the Dolphins will be playing at Sun Life Stadium after an offseason of renovations. It’s one more game closer to a game that matters.
LET’S GO DOLPHINS!!!!

As for the battle at corner, Jamar Taylor allowed just 1 of 5 passes to be completed this preseason for 6 yards. McCain: 1-2-15.
Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley
Plus Taylor had an interception. Based on my eyes, the job should be his (health permitting, of course).
Both are good corners and will be part of the nickel 3 with Grimes.
MIKE E, this is for you & Evan Mathis! 😉
Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley
Preseason OL stats (sacks-hits-hurries): Turner 0-0-1, Thomas 1-0-1, James 1-0-1, Pouncey 0-0-0, Fox 0-1-0, Walton 0-1-1, Douglas 0-0-2.
Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley
So even without Albert the entire preseason, the starting OL allowed just 2 sacks in ~80 snaps. Dolphins will take that all year.
That is specifically because Tannehill is no longer taking sacks. He FINDS the completion now before the pressure can totally disrupt the play. (lots of short passes, but we are seeing nice YAC.
That’s the offense – high percentage passes and the receivers need to get YAC. Then he’ll hit on deeper throws when they’re there.
Landry plays so much faster than his 40 time. He has football speed.
This is what I’ve been saying for yrs, do it the Brady way, just try to get positive plays on every down, making the next down a little easier.
Another thing positive plays do is frustrate the D, so instead of that pass rusher thinking he’s actually doing something the short passes start to get him thinking short pass and jump up and try to knock it down, instead of rushing the passer.
God, I hate the old broads on that VW commercial too! I don’t know anything, that’s all I have to say. I didn’t see nuthin’.
I wonder what type of people previewed it before it went live for the first time? The first one was bad enough, but why would you let them do a second one? Because people are talking about it, it doesn’t matter to them if you like it or not, what matters is they are getting pub.
Boulder, we should wait until the cut down to 75. I’m short 3 roster spots. I didn’t know you were locking it now.
The Herculean Bull being a leader.

James Walker ✔ @JamesWalkerNFL
After studying the tape, three #Dolphins’ sacks on #Falcons QB Matt Ryan Sat. came on four-man rushes. That is impressive by MIA’s d-line.
______________________________
This will make blitzing lights out for Marsha & other non-mobile QB’s! 😉
I agree, and even when Suh wasn’t on the field last night the blitz looked great.

Must be a Dolphins win hangover going on around here…
————————————-
It’s preseason, the win had nothing to do with it, we’re buying the hype, because we can see it. I pity the fool that…
Our front 4 are beasts. I can see Jenkins getting a lot of tackles this year. He flies all over the field.
Perfect for a guy like Tripp & Vigil too, or a smaller thumper like Hull as well.
As well as Reshad Jones in run support & the other DB’s.
So bottom line…money well spent chasing SUHper Man, cause he’s like getting a whole defensive unit in one guy….lol
Smart get by Tbaum & the Hickster, with Rossy’s blessings!
Thomas got smoked on a first and 10 play that Miller got caught for a loss of 3
We don’t have to be perfect on every play, shit happens, it’s what you do after the shit happens.
On the following play he does a great job dropping back into pass coverage and blocking two guys.
Great pass, catch and run.
I am re-watching the game now stopping and backing up each play.
That’s fantastic!
After setting a Dolphins rookie record with 84 receptions in 2014, he heads into the 2015 season as a key member of a new-look receiving corps.
“I’ve always been real consistent with catching the football,” Landry said. “I can’t give enough credit to (Ryan) Tannehill and Coach (Bill) Lazor for putting me in those positions, but 84 catches that’s just the floor for me. It’s just the floor for me and there’s nowhere (to go) but up. So I’m excited to see what this year brings, excited to see how far we can go as a Dolphins organization, as a team, as a group.”
He could put up gaudy catch numbers like Welker did for NE.
And I’d actually be surprised, if he didn’t.
He should have at least 100 catches.
Landry will lull LB’s & DB’s asleep on Cameron shooting down the seam!
Rock, STAND THE F**K UP IN YOUR LIVING ROOM WILL YA!!!!
I watched it at the bar last night and PPL were looking at me for sure. LOL
One guy: “Dude, it’s only preseason.”
Rockphin: “Fuck you my Dolphins are playing” LOL
Rockphin’s Buddy: “I’m not with him…..”
Rockphin: “Bartender! He’s not on my check”
Landry was expecting Sims to remain at full speed and go through the defender but instead Sims kind of checked up. I bet he’ll get a talking to for that despite the fact that it was a terrific play.
Come on Sims! You make one block there and it is a TD.

Yes it could be scary. I’m also liking the way they have Miller leaking out in space he’ll be dangerous.
I love the way Lazor uses our backs out of the backfield in space. That’s what the spread offense will do for you. It creates a lot of open space for skill players to run and we have a lot of them. Wait until we add Parker to the mix and he gives us a tall rangy perimeter receiver. I think we’ll also use him on deep crossing routes and fades inside the redzone.
Devin Hester makes Misi MISSI bad.
Vernon was making tackles for losses of 10,8, etc. Mitchell was balling next to Suh
Our front 4 is badass. We have depth too at both DT and DE.
No doubt! Our backups would be starting on other teams.
I loved that stat above. Three of our sacks on the first team last night came on 4 man rushes.
Yep! That’s the goal then you can drop 7 and crowd the field and keep passes shorter.
The best sack / PANCAKE on Matty Lice was when #93, #90, & #50 all flattened him at the same time with no penalty! KABOOM!
Yeah I was on the phone with my friend who’s also a Phins fan and we were like look at the way we obliterate the pocket and backfield. 🙂
Landry will line up all over the place and then he takes off running his crisp routes with no lull in his speed using his great hands and determination to get as many yards as possible. The guy is so motivated to be great. I see him catching 100 passes as well and getting his YPCA up from 9.0 to the 12-13 range this year.
LOL, don’t WR’s usually take a big leap in year 2-3….He’ll be scary and more versatile/dependable than his bro Beckham Jr.!
Yes but I don’t think a sophomore slump would ever happen with this guy the way he works. He’ll get better every year. I wouldn’t be negative on Beckham though, that guy is legit as well. He’s faster than Landry and has more down field ability while Landry is a guy who will find the soft spots in coverage and get chunk yards over and over to sustain our drives and control the game. When teams do pay more attention to him because he’s killing them all game then RT will just find the other open receivers and we’ll be like a machine.
What I love most about Landry is he catches the ball with his hands so smoothly and then IMMEDIATELY get’s positive yards after the catch. The ball is secured and he is moving up field in a instant. He has very shifty hips. He just keeps rolling.
Absolutely! He has very good game speed.
Also what I love about Landry is when he sees the pass is going to someone else (he is not the option that time), He IMMEDIATELY starts blocking for the other WR.
He’s a great football player. He was known for his blocking at LSU. He also had some great hits/blocks playing STs.
Remember when Wallace quit in the Jets game while defenders were hitting Williams, Landry comes from further away and starts trying to block guys to get them off of Williams while Asshole walks off. That told us a whole lot about the two of them and why one is the center piece of the offense and the other one is in Minnesota.
I just watched that “wishbone” sack again and Ryan came up throwing his invisible penalty flag. LOL The whistle had blown when they pancaked him at the end. LOL

———–
I love reading this. We haven’t done anything yet. It’s all about sustaining good defense through entire games and into the last quarter of the season and beyond. Suh gets it and this is EXACTLY what you want your leader on defense to say and do.
This guy has been everything he was advertised to be. I thought Son was guilty of hyperbolic statements in his praise of Suh and what he would mean to this team but I now realize he was dead on balls accurate, everything is different now that Suh is here.
Yep!
Watch Suh on this play
Rushing the passer is contagious, they all feed off of each other.
He takes on two blockers, spin moves, gets his hand up in case the QB throws it and just keeps driving and finishing. That’s why he is who he is.
This sack is kind of violent
The flag was for holding in the OL…lol
I love the way Vernon is just nasty
And Jenkins says thank you very much I’ll take that cheap sack. The credit goes to the Dline, the sack to Jenkins.
Jenkins finishing it off.
This is a good play by Atlanta…
😉
Watch Mitchell manhandle this OG
The only reason Mitchell didn’t make the play was, because he was being held, but if he had made the play it would’ve been a loss of 5 instead of 7.
Good thing he didn’t fumble, because is would’ve been the Butt Fumble II 😛
Watch MattySue, he saw this coming and got the fuck out of dodge 😉
Suh is a monster with that snap count
Poor MattySue
tim,
to be fair I’m gonna leave it locked. I’ve been saying for a few days that its gonna be locked today at noon. If you want any addition to your roster because its not 53 then put them in the blog today and I’ll add them for you.
Okay cool. I still don’t know why it has to be locked today before the cut to 75. It gives everyone a better idea on who’s making the team. There will still be 22 cuts after that to get to 53. I think it’s too early.
I thought Mitchell played good for us last year
And never really got much credit
But this year he is going to eat OLs alive
He played NT in HOU and he plays what they call nose/shade in our 4-3. He is very quick and strong. Real good player.
You see why our OL struggled in camp with these guys.

lol can they win a game that matter first before this is money well spent. pretty sure i saw a team struggling with what is suppose to be a bad falcon team this year.
i get they hype it happens every year, but i will just sit back and wait.
If you can’t see it isn’t hype this yr I don’t know what to say.
Cool videos, they’re a lot fun to watch on here.
I told you – Suh is here everything is different now.
Even Ross sounds witty and chilled.
Different how 😉
The Prediction of: Pain
is actually true now
Last yr in the AFC playoffs it seemed like the team that got the most YAC won the close games, lead by Edelman he was a beast. I see the same thing in Landry this yr.
I was getting the Game Day blog ready for Thursday and I see that CBS Sports is indicating our game will be live on NFL network rather than the Eagles/Jets game. My DirecTV schedule hasn’t changed. Has anyone else heard anything about our game being shown live on NFL network Thursday?

lmao, it is the preseason. get as excited as you want, but the bottom line is it is still hype. nothing more
The question before we went up against another team was, is the Dline this good or the Oline that bad? Anyone having trouble answering this one?
Nope! 🙂
tim,
the whole idea is to guess who’s gonna be on the team before any of the cuts. That’s more interesting and harder.
Yeah but we just got through the 3rd game. Okay I’ll post my last 3 in a few.
After watching the last 3 preseason games I think Dallas thomas is gonna be ok at LG. If albert plays I feel confident this o-line could get us to playoffs.
I think they OL will get better as the year goes on if they stay relatively healthy. It takes time for young players to develop and when you’re relying on multiple ones on one unit especially the OL which is about chemistry, you have to be patient. 2013 really fucked us and we had to overhaul it for the most part.
Boulder, actually I did do the 53 last night so I’m good. Just clarify for me that it’s 53 if you don’t mind.
Re-watchung some games and so far one sack on Winston for sure on him but next hurry and next sack both in marpet, he us getting owned by Bryant of the bucs
Late in the game they were putting a back either James or Ajayi split out wide something we haven’t seen from the 1’s yet.
How Suh changes everything
tim,
yes its 53. It looks like you kept more defensive players (27) than offensive (24). You just think we need more depth on defense?
ok after I typed that I was like 27 and 24 and 3 that’s 54. You have one too many on defense. LEt me know who you want out.
27/23. I go by talent, not even steven. Also STs. On offense you usually dress just 7 OL and roll with your core skill guys. On defense you rotate many more DL and DBs. LBs are usually good STs coverage guys.
I kept an extra OL because of Albert. When he’s ready to go we’ll probably release one and go with 9.
LMAO!!!
That’s funny
I went back and watched the phins game on dvr and DT didn’t look awful a LT either but definitely looks better at OG. Pretty much everyone seemed off their game, even James. Turner still graded out worse by my observation but he is a work in progress. Pouncey looked pretty good aside from right after he came back in he looked like he was playing a little gingerly
Man marpet is looking really bad in pass pro and run blockibg
Boulder, Tim has Douglas listed twice. 23-27
ok cool. a lot more on defense.
Right that’s what the * was for he could also backup RG.
Go look at that vine I posted at 3:07
the entire front 7 is behind the LOS
Front 4 you mean?
No I mean the LBs too
Brutal
LOL Suh is the LAST one across the LOS
What video are we referring to? Suh is the 1st one across the LOS in the 3:07 video.
a lot QBs are playing well this preseason. Did you guys just see the TD from hoyer to hopkins just now? pretty sweet.
Piggy, in the 3:07 video I only see 4 DL, no LBs in the picture.
Misi and Jenkins
I mean the play is over but you can see them
If the Rb breaks 5 tackles, they would have had it covered…lol
I never see the LBs in that video.
actually I think that is Shepard making a tackle
LOL if you count again, there are 9 dolphins players behind the LOS!
The video I see at 3:07 is just the 4 man front. Are you guys taking about another video?
tim
You are looking at the wrong video
I’m talking about the one where I say watch Mitchell manhandle at the top
My bad I had the 3:08 video of Suh timing the snap.
The page skips on me when I settle in that location. Every time I refresh the page I get shoots up a bunch of posts as well.

August 30, 2015 at 4:39 pm

The one that says “Watch Mitchell manhandle this OG ” above it. He is the last D Lineman across the LOS and like 9 guys wind up behind the LOS
It sounds like our starting LB core will be:
WOLB Jenkins
MLB Sheppard (good call Mike E)
SOLB Misi
To me that’s the best 3 like the best 5 OL. McCain isn’t ready to be a starting OLB. He’ll be a hybrid defender in our front 7. He’s probably more aggressive than instinctive so you can’t have him making mistakes in coverage.
I think that’s right
I’m guessing McCain is the next LB up
If Misi or Jenkins go down he will take their place and if Sheppard goes down they will move Misi inside
I also think there is a chance they cut Paysinger in favor of Vigil or Hull
Hull played okay yesterday
Very possible. Paysinger is a good STs player though and one of the reason we signed him. That’s why I kept 8 LBs including Vigil and Hull. They are going to play a lot on STs especially coverage units.
I did that over a 6th WR because I don’t see that guy ever playing unless we have injuries and are they so good we couldn’t find a guy of equal talent off the street?
Un Samurai
Real good player.
Rock me Baby…
Horny are ya? LOL
Love yoga pants and female bodies. 🙂
The problem is there are too many women wearing them that should not.
That’s pretty fucking incredible lol
I am flipping through the channels and stopped on Transformers. I think it must be said.
Megan Fox is Superhot.
Just figuring that out? LOL
..even if she does have thumbs that look like big toes.
Who cares about thumbs, it’s all about lips. LOL
Did you read what I typed?
Armando Salguero @ArmandoSalguero
Release of J.D. Walton shows Dolphins comfortable with Mike Pouncey health status and with Sam Brenner as backup center.
I called that one right. I heard Brenner had a good camp and serves a backup center and guard.
Um, Boulder……Can you unlock the spreadsheet? I think I left my cell phone in there…..Um, lost my keys…
NO, not just figuring it out, sometimes restating the obvious is acceptable.
I’ll say it again. MEGAN FOX IS SUPERHOT
WOW, who is that fox?
indeed!
She’s made herself available again- you should go after that.
Damn, I kept Walton over Brenner and I thought about switching it but didn’t.
Mila > Megan , imo
Kunis? Gonna have to disagree on that. Plus Kunis does not fill out a bikini top, and she married Kutcher.. But to each his own. I like hula girl better than Kunis!
I like Mila but not sure if more than hula girl. The thumbs really do freak me out on Megan, lol.
Mila’s a damn kunis.
Cutting JD Walton tells me that the coaches believe in their other OL pretty well, especially @ C & OG. Also means that Pouncey’s knee musta checked out ok.
Walton was a 16 game starter last season with the Giants, and he has I think over 50 NFL starts.
So thew youth movement is in force. Go Brenner!
Walton also struggled and was part of the Giants problem. Same with us with Satele. They got overpowered a lot. That’s why Pouncey is back at center.
I kept Brenner over Walton. He’s younger and has a better anchor.
Really TryPod? REALLY? What are you Siendfeld?
LOL
I see Erika already knocked out power to the old FME blog. I hope they don’t get flooded and the roof stays on. 😯
damn it. I had walton as well. Right out of the gate.
Thanks for your honesty….ya sure you’re a Lib? 😉
Her thumbs look pretty good in that picture I posted. They must have photo shopped out her ONLY imperfection!
Her thumbs got that way from too much….meh, nevermind. 😛
We could have Jason Fox as our OT and Megan Fox as our TE
Notice she is hiding her hideously deformed thumbs inside the sink……
Jelani Jenkins ✔ @jelanijenkins3
I’m way too hyped for this season

Go #53
He could be a pro bowl LB this year. I think he’s our best LB. He flies all over the field, plays the run, can drop in coverage and is a good blitzer.
Yes, I I also look forward to Tripp getting healthy. Vigil is flashing well as a UD rook, so I can’t wait to see how he develops in year 2 either.
Way to go out on a limb, Tim 😉
GD, I agree on the LBs. Tripp and Vigil have upside and Hull could be a STs demon. I like him as a LB he’s just undersized at 6-0 230.
LOL @ gdp
Where did you see that Walton was cut? It’s not on the Dolphins site or nfl.com
PhinsPhocus.com @Phins_Phocus 3m3 minutes ago
Center JD Walton released according to @ArmandoSalguero per his sources. #Dolphins
Good, we don’t need him.
brachydactyly……….thats what megan fox has. brachydactyly
i know cause my daughter and niece have it too. i keep telling them they should reach out ro megan fox and invite her over to start a support club but they wont listen to me.
Boulder thanks for what you do with the spreadsheet, it’s a cool deal. I even saw Home (TanneSail) on there again this year….lol
t/y wyo … also wasn’t that thumb syndrome featured in the main girl character in the novel Even Cowgirls Get The Blues Sometimes
I can see Landry being top heavy as the focus of our ball control offense along with the backs and the running game. So Landry could have a 100 catch season where all the others fall in the 30-50 give or take range. The offense is setup to find the open guy. I think Landry and Cameron will exploit the spread field and RT is a good middle of the field passer. 5-20 all day and then boom, someone makes a big play. 🙂
i do like john harbaugh. his brother comes across as an ass but he doesnt
http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/angry-john-harbaugh-scolds-reporter-during-awkward-halftime-interview/ar-AAdL3Cz?li=AA54yf
Not to be disagreeable, but it seems very possible that Landry has fewer catches this year even though he is a better player because of all the talent surrounding him.
… although he should get more yards per catch …
That’s what I thought too, then I started watching the preseason and I don’t think so any longer, even though the 3 new comers haven’t really been a part of the offense in the preseason.
Out of every 10 passes he throws 3 should go Landry’s way, that should give him about 9 per game. If someone is hot they may get a little more action, but at the end of the day RT likes throwing short and Landry is his security blanket.
Steve, I don’t think it’s a given that Tanny ‘just’ likes to throw short passes. That’s the way this offense is designed and only what his patchwork OL has allowed him.
Ryan likes to chuck it deep too, I’ve seen it. But he’s wisely not going to do it without knowing the play has a decent chance of success.
When he’s got time and an open target of course he’s going to throw deep, but he settles a lot on the short pass, which is a checkdown, not a design of the offense.
If you read my post last night where I compared him to Brady, making a positive play (short pass) is important, and more important than taking a risk somewhere else down the field, you’d realize I’m not bashing him.
I have no problem at all with the short passes he’s thrown in preseason, with the exception of the 3rd and long pass he threw short about 3 yrds downfield that had no chance of making a 1st down, when he had time to find someone else.
With that said, the only time it isn’t ok to throw short is on 3rd down and long, when you have time. This translates to I give up on this drive lets punt. If our D is as good as advertised in the preseason, by all means throw it short and punt (given the situation of course, so if we’re down 14 with 5 minutes to go it isn’t ok).
The storm is wreaking havoc with my power, my satellite, and even my internet connection, so i might be making even less sense than usual on here today.
Skins want to trade RGIII, because if he plays and gets hurt and is still hurt next yr, his entire $16 mil 2016 option will be guaranteed. Management may not allow them to trade/release him.
What a mess, and that’s in addition to the compensation they had to give the Rams to get him.
Man that stare John Harbaugh gave the reporter after the questions was priceless….lol
Walton played for one play last night in the first half and got a costly penalty
He played longer than that.
Brenner has passed him on the depth chart, so no reason to keep the more expensive option, and I think Brenner plays more positions.
I don’t really think it matters which of these 2 is the backup center, because either way RT will manage to get rid of the ball.

ROFLMAO!
Steve, no I didn’t think you were bashing Tannehill. I’m in agreement, and I too hate to see a pass inside the 1st down marker on 3rd and long, but sometimes that’s all ya got.
On 3rd and long the Defense knows you’re throwing and they send a heavy rush package at ya.
Until our OL, TE’s & RB’s gwet better at picking up everyone and providing more time, then we’ll see this more than we care.
Give Tanny time, or any QB, then they become real dangerous down field.
I like that Tanny seems much more comfortable in year 2 of Lazor’s offense. He’s smooth, making usually good quick decisions as the game has slowed down for him.
I really notice how well RTs pocket presence is when Moore is in the game and gets sacked or hit while throwing, I think to myself RT would’ve gotten rid of it quicker 😛
I wouldn’t trade RT for anyone right now, not even Luck.
gdp,
no worries. I think its fun as well. Go to the bottom and read home’s note. Its pretty funny.
TO FFR and all others who can get Tampa TV stations: every Bucs preseason game has been televised so far here in Tampa Bay so I’d expect the Bucs at Fins game Thursday night also will be televised here in the greater bay area. And speaking of the Yucs, if Miami’s back-up players get their asses kicked by Tampa Bay, I’l be pissed!! The Buccaners are one sorry-assed football team!!
I don’t think what happens on Thursday has much relevance in our team. I’d play Freeman the entire game.

i saw that. even though there was all this screaming how bold snyder was for making the trade and what a commitment to winning he had unlike ross, that has to go down as one of the worst trades in football history for what they gave up for rgbust
And topped off by RGIII’s comment about him being the best QB in the NFL, even though he just said he has to think of himself in that manner to perform well. The perception around was he said he was the best QB, so they’ll continue to make him look like an ass tomorrow on all the talk radio shows.
I can’t believe they cut Robinson:
James Walker @JamesWalkerNFL · 4m4 minutes ago
The #Dolphins have made initial roster cuts tonight. TE Gerrell Robinson and C J.D. Walton are among the notable releases.
DT Calvin Barnett
G Bryant Browning
WR LaRon Byrd
WR Kevin Cone
DE Ray Drew
WR Tyler McDonald
DE Kendall Montgomery
TE Gerell Robinson
CB Sammy Seamster
S Phillip Thomas
C/G J.D. Walton
So much for the Byrd fans…lol
I had Gerell Robinson over Stoneburner, but knew I was taking a risk, as he’s light in the britches for a TE @ 220.
I am surprised they cut Robinson and Thomas. I thought Thomas was a hitting machine and Robinson had serious speed down the seam.
Robinson was also a guy that John Elway liked….maybe he can make it back onto the PS.
That is 11 cuts. If we had 90, then they have to cut 4 more right?
we had 88 I believe.
Delmas on IR and we cut someone else last week so we’re at 77.
yes I had stoneburner.
Miami Dolphins roster cuts, these 11 get us down to 77, 2 more to go.

Naples
I had bad problems with my TV and internet last night, missed most of the 2nd half and didnt get back on till this morning…
Way up here we got Walloped by a torrential storm (2.30in) and then another 2.2 just this evening.
I hate this part of the preseason. For these guys getting cut, it may be the end of their NFL dream. Some might go to another team, or end up on a practice squad, but there’s only so many spots to go around. Kind of sad.
At least they can say they were on a camp roster. The ones that don’t get picked up by another team or put on a practice squad just have to work harder, look at Cam Wake, it isn’t over until they give up. You’re defined by what you do after failure, not before, and it’s only failure if you give up.
We still have two extra kickers and C Jones and Damarr Aultman at WR and Gillislee @ RB who seem superfluous. I hate losing Gills as he has talent.
Gillislee does have talent and will make someone else’s roster, I’m thinking Buff.
I’d keep Gillislee over LaMike.
me too
franks hasn’t been cut. interesting. I think they think he’ll get pouched right away. They like franks.
I like Franks, you like Franks, they like Franks…He’s got big Franks, she’s got big Franks, but who’s got the biggest Frank of them all 😉
LOL
Is that the kicker? I thought he was pretty good. I don’t remember Sturgis kicking a 51 yd FG.
yup. He’s a rookie undrafter kicker. Its a tough call. he’s got some legs.
Franks I gambled on in the roster picks.
Frankie goes to Miami!
Remember TEs are required to do more than just be receivers and make one big play in the PS. They serve as TE, H-Back and FB and then STs if you’re a #3. If you’re lacking in multiple areas in those responsibilities you’re not worthy of the 53. What Robinson is now going to be the focus of the offense? LOL
He reminded me of David Martin who helped us get to the playoffs.
He’ll never see the field with Cameron and Sims. Cameron is better than Martin was and Sims is a solid traditional TE. Our offense is more based off the WR and RB anyway.

I like Franks, you like Franks, they like Franks…
me too, but i usually like my Franks really really dark
well looks like parts of erika are here. she sure is loud and all wet.
Weeeeee innuendos. 🙄
Which parts? LOL
LOL @ Boulder on Home’s rant. Nah I’ll take Tannehill again. 🙂
Tim Do you really think we will only play two TEs the whole year?; even without injuries we would need to sub some time or other. I think Semisch is intriguing at 6’8 for a Red Zone jump ball target, but he is raw and could go on the PS without much risk of getting poached.

if you say so. cant help your perverted mind. i just mean a loud thunderstorm.

This made me laugh. Totally non football related.
LMAO!!!
Well balls are technically a NC led… As in suprise! the footsie partner has a set..
SteveCCNV; Actualy, the Thursday game DOES have plenty of relevance to the team, ESPECIALLY in the case of punting and placekicking jobs, as well as quite a few other jobs on the team that are still up for grabs. And I DO HOPE the first teamers play at least one or two series for the benefit of season ticket holders who are forced to pay regular season prices for exhibition contests. Personally, I won’t be there. In fact I’ve only been to ONE exhibition game since 1989.

see if that works
Naples, Robinson is not a TE, he’s a receiver only. Don’t need him. We underrate what TEs have to do in this league.
Not really on underrating them…it’s damn hard to find a good TE these days, has been for years.
Robinson can’t play TE, that’s the problem. He’s a receiver and we have plenty of those.
Like I said, he needs to add some weight for blocking assignments. He could be worth the PS.
GD, maybe PS for Robinson at some point but we also allowed him enough time to find work elsewhere. He was cut before the 75 deadline so he’s not high on our radar.
LOL @ Herd’s video, Mrs. son and I both lol’d
Alain Poupart @apoupartFins
Former @MiamiDolphins RB Daniel Thomas released by the Bears.
Herd,
Videos like that make me so uncomfortable, I can’t watch them. My wife laughs at the stuff I get squeamish about. Just some things.. Lol
