Finsmob Unleashed 
Jahn, congrats on the grand opening.
I’m just curious
I hate the shotgun offense too, like most
but don;t the Packers run something similar and is it it a lot more effective
what about the eagles – haven;t they scored a lot using an offense similar to what Lazor is trying to do
Do you think there are other reasons we aren’t running this offense as well as other teams?
The OL is still struggling just like the Eagles who have not been impressive on offense this year. I’ve always seen the Packers mix it up.

Jahn, yes the Skins are better than portrayed, same with the Jags.
ok fine, if that is the case then it is also the case the fins are worse then portrayed and time to start making changes.
Phins may have bought into their preseason hype way too much….YUP!
Teams definately have dominant DT’s figured out. Cut their legs. Im curious to see if they do this against McCoy, and Dareus, etc. It has worked like a champ against Suh, and its dman near every fucking play. Maybe we should be getting Douglas and Thomas ready to do this next week.
I hate the the way they cut out the legs from under the DTs consistently
Although I didn;t notice is as much yesterday as vs he redskins
it looks dangerous
He got them cut a few times yesterday, but yeah it wasnt as often as the Skins.
Douglas got really pushed around by the Jags DT.
He held up as well as a rookie should have i think. Our biggest vulnerability is at LT right now. We could use more push from the whole unit as far as run blocking.
I know I’ve seen Suh on the ground a lot.
jahn,
congrats on your opening, now i hope gruden comes in and takes over, fires everyone and runs it into the ground.
take that you gruden lover you
Anyone know Albert’s injury status?
D, agree with ya above on Joe & his coordinators….I’ve been saying that he needs to demand changes….especially with running the ball and plays from under center, play actions, roll outs etc.
But, he’s a former so called OC himself, so if he can’t see the problems then he never will do much to fix them.
It’s said that he watches other teams games to see how their coaches make calls in crucial sits like 2min warning, TO’s, 4th & 1, etc.
Maybe he needs to study more how they are coaching the rest of the game, or the type of game plans they used against certain opponents vs. other opponents.
WAKE/STAND THE F**K UP JOE! 😯

——————————-
yes they are struggling. I got to rewatch the game paying attention to the OL and their play was very bad. I saw several plays where they were stumbling over each other. This probably can be expected when they can’t all practice together and Albert didn’t get any training camp. Pouncey played good but 1 player isn’t going to cut it.
Pig, last I saw Albert had a pulled hammy, could hardly walk….likely his repaired knee over compensating, as it’s on that same leg.
Doubt we see him back until after the bye….IMO.
Thanks
I think we need to make a move for a guy to play tackle. At this point waivers are picked clean of talent so anyone we pick up there most likely wont hold it down much better than Fox, or at least we wouldnt have a lot of expectation they would. Best bet to shore up the position would be to trade for someone, cost us a pick but might be a somewhat instant shoring up. Im not sure though who might have the depth at that position to trade us and im sure it will come with a very uneven price tag.
Cameron has a groin injury also and couldn’t finish the game yesterday……
Tanny is limping around on a wrapped ankle…..and the Bills D is coming to town….oh yea! 🙄
But do you think the OL’s performance is a result of the heavy use of the shotgun
It would seem to me that this makes the opposing DL’s job easier
but, like I said, I was watching Green Bay last night and it seemed like they were able to get a good push (against Seattle no less) when they ran out of the shotgun
GB’s play calling mix looked better, and they stayed committed to running…29 times for 127…..this helped Rodgers already dangerous passing game.
Miami had Miller run the ball 7x in the first half…..Tanny ended up leading the team in rushing….smh
We need better play out of Tanny, how dare he lose games and let the team slide off his shoulders.
D,
You want perspective
For the 2nd week in a row, the Redskins wiped their ass with a dominant front 4.
From the Skins-Rams game Summary via Skins Bleacher Report writer:
“For a second consecutive week, Washington was outright dominant in the first half. Behind 132 rushing yards, the team held a 17-point lead at the break.
On the game, the Skins churned out 191 of 373 total yards on the ground. Rookie Matt Jones led the way with 123 yards and two touchdowns, the latter of which put the game out of reach for St. Louis.”

GDP,
Agreed and the Packers lost Lacy and didn’t waffle in their run call mix. They just gave it to the next guy. Anyway, in Week 1, the Pack ran it 30 times against the Bears. Got to keep the LB and secondary guys honest.
Congratulations Jahn. I’m very happy 4U hope everything turns out GR8.
yea congrats jahn. Opening night is always stressful. I’m happy it went well for you.
Lamar Miller 10 rushes 14 yards 1.4 avg. 😯
Got to find balance in this offense….I don’t care who we play!
In fact, had we played a top team with this, we’d been blown the f**k out.
and he had 6 yards on one of those carries. I remember one play where Pouncey and guard was pulling and Pouncey pushed down guard because he was too slow to get out
Douglas
WR Allen Robinson….only 6 catches on 12 targets….but for a whopping 155 yds & 2 TD’s.
Hold him under 100 & 1 TD & we likely win the game.
One was a fucking mind blowing shit the bed moment by Aikens for majority of that 155. He was though consistently losing Grimes on his coverage as well.
He’s a good looking young WR. I liked him the 2014 draft for us but I’m happy with Landry.

At this point waivers are picked clean of talent so anyone we pick up there most likely wont hold it down much better than Fox, or at least we wouldnt have a lot of expectation they would. We also cant put any more hope Albert will make it through the rest of the season and worse thing that could happen to us is to get in a good run and be derailed by him going out later. Best bet to shore up the position would be to trade for someone, cost us a pick but might be a somewhat instant shoring up. Im not sure though who might have the depth at that position to trade us and im sure it will come with a very uneven price tag.
———————————————–
To add to that i also would start prepping for a LT in next years draft if we cant somehow find Turner a home there, and even if we do, we need to draft one in day 2.
One thought might be trade for Chaz Green, giving up Moore and a 4th rounder (they used a 3rd to take Green last draft). Doesnt give us a lot of security bringing a Rookie in but he’s solid and was good enough to be draft by Dallas and make their team of stud OL.

As i said yesterday, Miller is trying out for dancing with the stars. He did more dancing around at the line than running. He HAS to start running with authority.
There was nothing there from what I saw.
Think of where Cowboys fans are. They’re 2-0 but they lost Bryant and now Romo.
breaking the collar bone along with back surgery last year may be the end of his season and possibly his career. It takes a long time to heal from a broken collar bone
Btw,
I’m also tired of the selective criticism that goes on in the media. All this BS about Brady dominating the Bills and Belichick’s mastery, the fucking game was 37-32 with 4 minutes go. Belichik’s mastery was almost undone by the ultimate choke.
Early in the game they were dominating the Bills and they were doing it by being very fast paced. When they slowed down, Ryan was able to work in his adjustments and really started swaying the game. NOTE TO LAZOR….. DO THE SAME THING BUT JUST KEEP THE FOOT ON THE PEDAL!!!!
Shows both Defenses can be had.
I think the Pats were up by 24 going into the 4th quarter and they were in command throughout the game when the Bills finally made it a respectable score in the final minutes. The announcers even said the Bills need to come together aging going even when they knew they were not going to win and make the 4th quarter encouragement for the following week.

Id call that overly arrogant. Yes part of what he is saying is true, it is only game 2, but he does need to own that its not working and he needs to make adjustments. What he wants to do may not work and he needs to be flexible enough to adapt, not continue to try to ram that square peg in the round hole.
What is he doing that you would change?
First i would do more twist than straight DL assignements, his scheme is bland and predictable. I also would sent the linbackers to fill the gaps instead of playing containment, or a mix of the two. Straight containment isnt working. Id also work in more blitzes, bringing different players from different spots until i found weaknesses in their D. Just to name a few.
Tim, replied with a note to you.
Go Sam!

Bill Lazor on Bills: Having faced this team twice last year I have unbelievable respect for this talent level… Some say best DL in league
“Improving but inconsistent. Not as consistent as we like,” Bill Lazor on the performance of Jamil Douglas and Dallas Thomas.
Fair assessment, i think they have been decent but not great. We do need more out of them. Again, Douglas has been worse, but you would expect that.

——————————————–
There were several times where he had an opening but he second guessed it and got nothing because it closed fast. He had at least a couple of BIG cutback lanes i saww on the day and ran into the herd. He hasnt run well at all and part of it is on him. He isnt getting much but he coudl do more with what he is given if he attacks instead of dancing, and thats ture with all backs.
My Bucs just might be crazy enough to win the world series.
After beating the Dodgers last night, here is how they dressed up to get on the team plane.
Omar Kelly ✔ @OmarKelly
“We have been at our best when we have been balanced, but there is no law that says we have to be balanced,” Lazor said.
______________________________
I find issue with that lame ass excuse!!!
Omar Kelly ✔ @OmarKelly
Bill Lazor said the ball carriers need to be Moore decisive, and he admitted “a 2 and 3 yard run early” has scared him off.
_____________________________
Then get the F**K out of coaching, or as OC calling plays….we’re done with him as our play caller.
Take the reigns Joe and call your own plays….be a Mike McCarthy DAMN IT!!! 👿
D, did you read what I posted on how well the Pats rookie UDFA OL/OG’s handled the Bills vaunted front 4?
Guess we can keep waiting on guru Benton to get Thomas, Douglas, & Turner up to speed….Zzz
i saw quick precision passing hopefully we will learn something from the pats offensive slaughter.
‘He hasnt run well at all and part of it is on him. He isnt getting much but he coudl do more with what he is given if he attacks instead of dancing, and thats ture with all backs.’
yeah, i mean if he did that he could double his production to 28 yards a game.
D, once again, miller is just a part of the problem. like tanny, but they are both small parts of the problem. if they o line worked no one would ever mention either tanny or miller as a problem.
Im not saying Miller is the whole problem, OL isnt creating enough space for him and the play calls are very predictable. Im fully aware its not all him but several here seem to think his dancing around is not his fault. Show me on any of his runs where he hits the hole hard and gets shut down and ill show you three where he runs up to the line triest to cut this way then that way and then back the same way before beng swarmed and losing a couple on the play. Williams is running better than him right now and its because he is running with more conviction and more north/south.

“yep, and batting 1.000 with the first loss and the ‘it isnt the coaches fault’ talk.”
How does that conversation go?:
Party A: We lost. Bummer
Party B: The coach sucks. FIre him.
Party C: It’s not the coaches fault.
So if you’re party B, stfu if you don’t want to hear party C’s take on it. If you can deal with Party C’s take, than stop whining when they offer it.

Thanks on the well wishes everyone!
I plan on visiting the brewery. 🙂
When? Did you get my info? I think a couple guys here forwarded it to you?

“I couldn’t tell you,” Suh said, when asked to explain his uninspired play. “At the end of the day, we have to go back to the drawing board and figure out what we want to run so guys can make plays and go from there.”
blowbin may want to just sweep this under the carpet but this is an issue. you dont make a comment like that if it isnt an issue.

——————————————-
What the pats UDFA rookie does doesnt help us in this situation. Thomas and Douglas are coming along, but truthfully thats what we have to work with. What good does what the Pats have and how its working for them do to help us out of this situation? We HAVE to hope that Douglas and Thomas improve…. thats the reality of it.
FFR,
Again, the value in running isn’t in the yards you gain but the effort DL have to put to push off OL. When they are pass rushing, the OL are playing back and not exerting their weight. Getting pushed on is more tiring. Moreover, when DB & LB get conditioned to having run in one direction they tend to cheat. Going in and out keeps them on their heels.
Funny thing is, I didn’t once say the coaches suck. I do think we need to make adjustments, and I’m really disappointed with our offense that Lazor brought here. I thought for some reason we were going to make a commitment to run the ball more, but that seems to have gone out the window.
The defense has been anything but dominant. For all those who felt that Suh was worth the investment and his impact on this defense would make everyone else better, it hasn’t happened. It seemed to be there in the preseason, if anyone here would admit that, but that shit also seems to have gone out the window. BUF isn’t any easier than WAS or JAX, but there is a lot of familiarity on both sides. They have gotten the best of us the last few years, we need to change that this week.
Agreed.
Why is that the funny thing? You didn’t have to say it, 1/2 dozen people on this board did long before anyone defended the coaches.
Rob
Fucktards was pretty gay. You got me.
D,
i would agree with you that it is a problem if it was in his past or his style. yes, i have seen him do it some this year but last year he didnt. so IMO that just means the holes are not there so he is trying to make something out of nothing. which is probably the wrong thing to do, if nothing is there just go straight ahead, dancing will just make you lose yards.
‘So if you’re party B, stfu if you don’t want to hear party C’s take on it. If you can deal with Party C’s take, than stop whining when they offer it.’
lol, so basically it is ok for party c to say what ever they want but the other side has to stfu. i get it, i see how you like to party. basically, dont talk just listen. i am god and i am always right, so basically SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP.
No he’s actually saying the opposite which is how it always starts. LOL
You can be a punk if you want, but if you’re party B, and you don’t want Party C’s opinion then you have two choices: Get over it and stop whining when party C offers it, or don’t bring it up in the first place.
The blog posts are time stamped, you’re always the first one crying when someone else takes a stance that runs counter to yours.

unless you have miller on your fantasy team. LOL
and i got it, i was just commenting to D, that a lot of the dancing is just cause nothing is there. i dont doubt he does some dancing when he shouldnt but it isnt like there are huge running lanes and he decides to stop and do a lil break dancing
Most Toxic Avengers are procrastinators. At least as far as my experiences have told me. lol
Jordan Cameron said he learned how resilient Ryan Tannehill was last Sunday. Said it shows he’s a QB the team can get behind.
I think we’ve all seen MillerTime bust through holes very quickly, and for some big gains. I don’t think he’s dancing, I think the O-line isn’t holding their blocks, and giving him a clear lane.
tim,
i admit i am confused as to who is saying what now. and like i told you the other day, i for one dont ever tell any side what to say. i say what i want so you have a right to say what you want.
and i dont think jahn is one to tell some one else to shut up. most of my comment was just busting on him. i think by now he knows that.
Jahn
It’s funny because it’s well known I don’t like Philbin. That’s it.
tim,
to be honest it isnt many on this blog that do it. that tell others they are bad fans or how to act. most of that garbage got left behind. i dont think i have yet to see it on here.
STFU Rob!
I think we should let the worry of what we do next year wait until next year. Worry bitch about losing next week if we actually do. We cant un-lose that game. Its done. I totally understand picking apart our failures in the game, and also pointing out adjustments we need to make from here. What i don’t get is the 1-1 star dooming us to a 8-8 or worse, a losing season right out the gate. This doomsday prediction stuff about an entire season that hasn’t even got fully start yet is where im not with you guys.
give it a few weeks. Some of us could see this train wreck coming as soon as Ross decided to retain philbin in 2013 and then again in 2014.
What did Einstein say was the definition of insanity. Someone please send it to Ross.

i wasnt crying cause you took any stance. jesus christ, i am about the only one on here who says over and over i could careless what most say. my only comment to you was it should go both ways. if i have to listen to what you say you should have to listen to what i say.
Jahn,
Take your own advice as well when party B gives party C their opinion of the coaches. 😉
If thats aprtly aimed at me, im not trying to take your poinion of Philbin away, im just saying at this point its mostly on the CO/DC but its somewhat shared with him as well.
not aimed at you at all. It was suppose to be joke.
LOL…I’ve made one very neutral post on the whole subject today: You can’t offer a strong opinion then get all butt hurt when someone offers a counter. There were 6 posts (at least) blaming coaching before there was a single post that took an alternate stance. With ratios like that the 6 really need to stop whining so much when that 1 actually takes the counter stance.
all i know is now i want to go to a party with jahn. you get to party with A and B and C and D.
i know at jahns party i am going to just be in the corner hanging with DD
I have to wonder if sims not playing affected the running game
D, yesss, coming home finally and posting a sweet division win and going 2-1 will do wonders for the team…….
Philbin is going to have to earn his paycheck this week with all the negativity surrounding the team

———————————–
Then your picking and choosing who is failing. Watch the games in review, you will see he has some openings and isnt hitting them. He is apprehensive to run it up in there. Im not putting all of that on him. Online isnt giving him much and for the third time, Lazor’s calls are so predictable the D pretty much knows at the snap where its going. Miller though IS part of the problem, he IS dancing at the line and it ISNT helping. He would gain a couple instead of losing a couple if he just hit it and didnt try that crap.
OK, but it’s really your opinion, one you’re making without the benefit of having game film. I’m sure every back misses a crease now and again, but to say this from watching the game like I watched it, I don’t see how you can be so sure he had a crease from the angle the game is shot from.

GD, where did you leave a note?
In the mail
Never got it.
Got it, thanks. I replied.
I guess clayton needs to STFU as well. Who does he think he is?
“• The Miami Dolphins’ habit of playing down to their opponents’ level could lead to another 8-8 season. They face QBs Kirk Cousins, Blake Bortles, Tyrod Taylor, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Marcus Mariota and Ryan Mallett or Brian Hoyer in the first six games. A 6-0 record against that slate would not have been out of the question. But they’ve already suffered their first loss, against the Jaguars on Sunday, and they barely beat the Redskins in Week 1. “
BTW 6-0 was exactly what I and many other picked in the challenge. We wrongly assumed that blowbin can beat teams he’s suppose to beat.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1A6PuNZcFYadb2wHF5xlNePadZQ9FRe8urWupu4p3dRw/edit?pli=1#gid=0
Too much is made of the QB’s we are facing. Cousins, Bortles, Taylor, Fitz and Mallett all have stud defenses behind them and most have really solid running games. I wouldnt have expected us to lose to the Jags but we did, but in no way does who their QB is actually mean much in the long run. Its how the team as a whole plays, we need to improve ours.
Agree. Right now we got too many parts not in synch. Offense/Defense/Play Calling/Execution.
I know you’re just kinda making a joke of it, but I feel like you totally missed my point. It’s this: If I hate the response to a certain complaint and I KNOW I’m going to get that response every time I make that complaint, the solution isn’t for the responders to STFU, it’s for me to not start the discussion in the first place.
FFR,
The dancing part doesn’t hold much weight in terms of why he isn’t getting volume of carries. He averaged 5.1 yards per carry last year in the NFL; only Justin Forsett did better as a RB. He did better than Jamal Charles who had less carries than him (Charles was 4tg at 5.0). Like any back, some get you those yards more consistently than others but at times you have a RB who has game breaking ability and takes a few duds before blowing up a big run.

al,
i wasnt the one talking about the dancing. D was. i think miller is a good back. i have no problem with him. i tried to say i think the dancing is a part of the failure of the o line this year. i am all for them fixing the running game.

———————————————-
Not to sound like a loser, but i record the game and go back and watch it play by play. I also have the benefit of his success making those cutbacks in my corner. Yard and a half average was it? Miller has some bulk behind him. He hits that pile hard he is going to get a couple. He didnt though and has some huge negative plays. I cant prove it to you, you will have to go back and look yourself, but im confident in what i saw.
Tim, I resent in new mail instead of reply to yous. Hope it reaches you this time. Thx.
Got it and I replied thanks.
It would be good to see how many times, during philbin’s miami tenure, the phins have lost to teams they were favored to beat by Vegas. I remember his 1st 2 years we did lose a lot of those. The fest game against Titans comes to mind. But I know last year we didn’t lose too many of those and that’s why I picked them to win all their games early.
I guess, like many others, I was wrong.
D, I think Miller is more suited running from a pro set when Qb is under center. He has a head of steam then by the time he gets the hand off, vs. shotgun, delay, ok here’s the ball, now go run somewhere.

I was the one saying he is dancing, and yes thats exactly what i was saying. Last year you wach, he hit the holes hard, he didnt hesitate, this year he is running a lot more gingerly. Our OL is pretty much same OL as this year so applying same logic you have to wonder why there is less success. Im telling you its a bit of everything and its yielding 0 success. Miller is running different, OL isnt blocking as well, and the coach isnt calling plays as well….its all 3,.

FFR, there’s a comment in the reply to you above somewhere, I think, but I lost it. Just go ahead and spend a little time trying to find it…it should be there somewhere.
(PS, we will not be having a party with ZZ Top and bikini models while you’re gone…I swear.)
Got the Fest tickets today……..it’s around the corner.
Would have made feel better if it was a stack of cardboard rather than an internet link though.
Both Philbin and Suh have said the reports about him going rogue aren’t true. Someone felt like stirring up some shit. You get this type of stuff now due to social media.
its crazy that this happens when a team loses
I mean come on….take it easy guys

no thanks, i will just assume your comment read:
ffr, you are so brilliant. i strive each and every day of my life to have the wisdom and insight you do into the miami dolphins. i would be willing to pay handsomely for personal training from you.
ps. i will pay extra if you let me sit on your sofa during training.
You just didn’t want to miss out on the ZZ Top party…admit it.
tim
btw, on that email address i gave you, i hardly every use it. so if you send me something give me a heads up on here. just put tim i the subject line to i know it is yours
Subject line to FFR: NLC Party

i hope for the fest goers sake, they came with money back guarantee’s
I was happy to see them at least, put a lot of work into them.
And at the fest it is about hanging with buds more than what happens on the field.
I don’t care whether Suh is freelancing or not. Either way he’s not making anything good happen. Maybe he should freelance if he hasn’t.
Only real people that know that is Suh and Coyle. Coyle knows what he called and Suh knows if he disobeyed it lol. If he did it was right at the end and it was like one play because most the game was same vanilla ass formation we saw all day.
I don’t know what’s up with the front 4.

you say that like it would be a bad thing. i mean look at those pecks.
Is that flesh colored plastic underwear? Kinky
tim,
if it was important you may want to try again. i just looked and had nothing but junk mail. like 1,830 something junk emails.
Mike E, 2014 3rd rd pick from Miami Bill Linder did a great job 1 on 1 with Suh. I saw him stack him up and even redirect him on many plays….is why Suh moved down the line in what everyone says was Suh going rouge.
BTW, Linder is a big boy 6’6 320.

The #Dolphins will receive a late-round draft pick from #Ravens in exchange for CB Will Davis, source said.
Watch Davis become a ballhawk there.
Me after reading stories about the dolphins today
Still trying for one last lick or BJ….damn filthy Pigs.
LOL…..but look how happy you look diving into the mud. 🙂
They eat these in jacksonville
LOL — city law against BBQ though.
Trading Davis was probably inevitable, but i wish they had held out for more. If its a conditional 5th its an ok trade. Hope its not much less.
I think its a 7th rounder

Great, so Suh has been rendered completely useless by rookie Brandon Scherff and last years 3rd RD pick Brandon Linder. OK, I feel better now. lol
Hey, other guys come to play as well….NFL is the best of the best.
Lots of guys on outside looking in.
Yeah, but other guys aren’t getting paid over $100M. Not only that, but Suh has done NOTHING. Hasn’t even sniffed a QB yet, and when he finally penetrated yesterday, he needed someone else to clean up the tackle he missed.
You all know what I think…S.O.S. different year. Stats mean NOTHING if we can’t score a lot and lose. Defensive line has gotten pushed around so far I except more of the same. Happy Monday!
We expected you’d say that 😉
Maybe they will promote Dowling. Id like to see him on the team.
Today is World Peace Day apparently….
Everywhere but here it seems 😛

Dolphins are getting a 7th round pick in return for Davis.
Bleh thts not good compensation, especially to a team so desperate for CB’s.

With Dion Jordan suspended and Will Davis traded & Gillislee, Sturgis, Jones gone, Fins have Taylor, Thomas, Jenkins, Sims from 2013 draft.
That should have been a monster draft, instead, it was an utter failure.
So we still have 5 of 7, thats not overly shocking lol. You had to expect taking two CB’s and having Grimes pan out one of the two would wind up traded or cut. Gills was a mistake to cut. We could use him right now.
