The Dolphins hosted the Falcons Saturday Night. The Little Prawn was there to see the actions. Let’s hear his thoughts on the game!
Well maybe you can’t hear him so well…I’ll just do my best to explain what he is pointing out to you.
The Dolphins unveiled their stadium upgrades, well the ones that are completed this year anyway. Next year they put the canopy on it.
Prawny thinks it looks like a giant pool now. There is a lot of Aqua around the Dolphins these days.
Hey, what’s this jerk doing in Prawny’s seat?!?!
Prawny points out here that the Dolphins have a flare for theatrical effects.
Looks pretty cool right?
Prawny gives a pep talk to the defense before the game. Truth is, no one could hear him.
Something about “kill kill kill”!
Whatever he said clearly worked. Earl Mitchell was feasting early on. I guess playing next to Suh has its benefits.
The Falcons rushed for 50 yards on the day. But a lot of those yards were in the 2nd half. In the first quarter, when the first team defense was in, there was a ton of negative plays.
The Dolphins d-line didn’t just look good, they looked great.
And it wasn’t just against the run. The pass rush looked unstoppable too.
Vernon don’t care if you hold. Vernon sack…Vernon just sack.
This one squeaks for itself.
I think Prawny is pointing out the spot where Matt Ryan head detaches from his body.
This is another good place for Tom Brady’s liver to end up. Wake is gonna kill some one playing next to Suh!
The defense did not give up a touchdown Saturday night.
But enough about defense. How bout offense?
The Dolphins only scored 13 points in the game. They were playing with a make shift line. No Albert, no Fox, Dallas Thomas at left tackle (and he played well) and Pouncey left the game with a knee injury.
In this pic, the Dolphins work in the screen. Me thinks we might see a lot more of the screen game this season.
Miller looks well on his way to being a workhorse for the Dolphins. He had 11 touches in limited time. That included 5 catches. Maybe the Dolphins were just working the running game because of the injuries to the offensive line.
In this pic, Prawny points out that Miller’s knee is no where near the ground! He can fly!
Running backs tend to get big YAC yards. But you want YAC? I give you Jarvis Landry.
In this pic he scampers for 46 yards, most of those yards after the catch. It probably could have been a touchdown pass, but the first player to make contact with Landry was Dion Sims…oops. Well he was trying to make a block downfield and kinda got in the way…
Getting in the way during a downfield block is a lot better than Wallacing it I guess…
Rishard Matthews would end up scoring on that drive. Prawny points out here the chemistry between Tanny and Matthews who were drafted in the same class.
That wasn’t a bad draft. Sure there was Martin and Egnew. But there was Vernon, Tanny, Miller and Matthews. Maybe Jeff Ireland wasn’t so b…..
Okay Okay…I’m sorry Prawny! I won’t say anything good about Jeff Ireland. You don’t have to stab me!
Speaking of good draft picks. Jay Ajayi lead the Dolphins in carries last night. He had 7 carries for 25 yards.
Looks like some of these guys got their jobs locked up. Not a lot of suspense in the final 53.
But maybe just maybe, this guy – Franks, takes the kicking job from Sturgis. In this pic he hits a 51 yarder. He has got a leg!
That’s right Prawny – Laces Out!

We are looking for GOOD #Dolphins related questions for this week’s X’s and Omar show. If you have them use the #XOmar hashtag please.
Piggy, come on you can do it. Give him a good one. LOL
Q: Omar, when will you come out and say you’re secretly a ball watcher?
Q: Which balls would you rather watch, a goat’s or a donkey’s?
Not sure if you guys already brought this up, but DTinfinity was cut by Da Bears
Someone did earlier, can’t remember who…
Amazing how sometimes a move we make is confirmed by another team’s staff…….not that it makes drafting him look better.
Yeah, there are two sides to it, no doubt.
This makes me think of GD. LOL

Are you going to do a Pick-um again this year?
Quick pop in from Work… If you do a FU FFB I would like in… as well as the GDP Pick um again..
Glad to the injuries being minor and the men returning…
Hamilton may have a leg up as he was getting used on returns.. I think..
I’ve lost Walton and Robinson so far.. I am sure they will not be my only ones..

True, and Peyton Manning had a 64.5 QBR game in PS, yet no one thinks that Bridgewater will be better than Manning this season…lol
———
In the fantasy football world, sadly, yes 😦
I was ina FF draft last night with a HUGE Broncos fan.. He actually drafted Osweiller.. Maybe figures Peyton aint making it thru the year.. personally I thought it was a wasted pick.. especially considering someone beat him to Manning in rd 1
I’d draft Peyton waaaay ahead of Teddy B.
Also on a side note..
Flights to Miami CHECK
La Quinta booked CHECK
Van and driver for 12 to and from game booked CHECK

Rookie Jamil Douglas has pulled ahead of Billy Turner in the competition for the right guard job, according to two people briefed on the situation. Turner was informed of that on Monday and was naturally disappointed. The Dolphins still have time to settle on a starter before the Sept. 13 opener at Washington.
http://miamiherald.typepad.com/sports-buzz/2015/08/monday-dolphins-notes-vets-deal-with-uncertainty-matthews-rises-pounceys-prediction-ongoing-battles-.html
Guess Douglas will play the 1st half at least on Thurs, before giving way to Turner.
WTG Rook, now make the coaches look like they did the right thing!
Competition brings out the best. Congrats rook and keeping working Turner. We’ll likely need you at some point in the season.

After a strong preseason by the starters, #Dolphins now have Vegas’ 10th-best odds to win the Super Bowl

I don’t think there is any way Brady’s suspension is not reduced. I’m thinking two games now.
LOL, Hal Habib looks like he’s 4 foot tall.

Jaguars’ TE Julius Thomas expected to need surgery on tendon in his finger and is expected to miss 4-5 weeks, per source. 2nd opinion Tues.
Yikes, he came with a heavy price tag and expectations.

and then he appeals even that and they hold off on the suspension till he announces his retirement in 2028
Lol! From what I’ve read the judge doesn’t feel the NFL handled the situation properly. That’s not good for the NFL.

and that is pure bullshit. the nfl is a private organization they are or should be allowed to handle things any way they want. so what next, the a player doesnt like a call so he takes it to court and the judge tells the nfl i dont like how you handled that call, play the game again.
I’d be Ok with that, the cheats would lose every game.
Try to be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in and try to live together in peace and harmony with people of creeds and nations.
The end of a movie… hmmm which one was that? 😉
On the outskirts of a small town, there was a big, old pecan tree just inside the cemetery fence. One day, two boys filled up a bucketful of nuts and sat down by the tree, out of sight, and began dividing the nuts. “One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me,” said one boy. Several dropped and rolled down toward the fence.
Another boy came riding along the road on his bicycle. As he passed, he thought he heard voices from inside the cemetery. He slowed down to investigate. Sure enough, he heard, “One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me ….”
He just knew what it was. He jumped back on his bike and rode off. Just around the bend he met an old man with a cane, hobbling along.
“Come here quick,” said the boy, “you won’t believe what I heard! Satan and the Lord are down at the cemetery dividing up the souls!”
The man said, “Beat it kid, can’t you see it’s hard for me to walk.” When the boy insisted though, the man hobbled slowly to the cemetery.
Standing by the fence they heard, “One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me.”
The old man whispered, “Boy, you’ve been tellin’ me the truth. Let’s see if we can see the Lord…?” Shaking with fear, they peered through the fence, yet were still unable to see anything. The old man and the boy gripped the wrought iron bars of the fence tighter and tighter as they tried to get a glimpse of the Lord.
At last they heard, “One for you, one for me. That’s all. Now let’s go get those nuts by the fence and we’ll be done….”
They say the old man had the lead for a good half-mile before the kid on the bike passed him.
LMAO!!!
IT WAS THE SALMON MOUSSE
I love then they start annoying Mr. Death and he keeps turning to each of their cackling. LOL
hey wtf is my yard man doing in one of son’s post

there was a few on some other blog that were screaming up and down about how ross had no commitment to winning cause he didnt make that trade like snyder did
“there was a few on some other blog that were screaming up and down about how ross had no commitment to winning cause he didnt make that trade like snyder did”
I think we’re starting to finally see the benefits of having a plan and sticking to it. Those were the rough times hopefully they are behind us now. Oh God I hope so.
‘ Oh God I hope so.’
well me too. but if it doesnt happen this year cant fault him he was busy building a brewery
Not even Satan could empty all the Beer in the store!!!!!!!!
For the Country Western fan!
Think of Unanswered Prayers! 😉
This should be close I would think
My Idol!!!!!!!!
Sheesh! Almost missed my FF draft tonight. My wife gets home late from NYC on Mondays, and I was cooked dinner, we ate, and looked at my watch, and my draft was starting in 7 minutes. That was close.
That woulda sucked. Especially if didnt pre rank
You would’ve just autodrafted, it might’ve been better, it wouldn’t have included any mets 😉
I hope nobody got hurt, oh God! That wouldn’t be good… oh!
So I guess the idea opening day on the OL is this based on current intel? Hopeful no doubt!
