from Lee (Uwantwat)
Q – Mike,
Now we have finally got rid of Lazor do you think we will see any improvement in the Offensive side of the team?
Can young Taylor find the balls to let our RBs actually tote the rock? My personal take on the team is we stuffed up by shifting to
a ZBS OL and moving from a 3-4 Def. We seem to have no clue how to play the game anymore. Your thoughts.
Lee (Uwantwat)
I think we’ll definitely see the offense more balanced with a fair amount of rushing the football. I don’t think it will necessarily be “balls” though, when the HC (interim or not) just fired the previous OC because he wouldn’t allow the offense to run the ball. I think Zac Taylor will mix it up for sure. He’s getting a shot here, and these games will have his stamp on them, win or lose.
We have some seriously fresh horses in the barn, just waiting to run. Lamar Miller has only a little more than half the carries he had last season, 119 carries, he finished the season with 216 last season. Miller is averaging 4.8 YPC, while last year he averaged 5.1. Jay Ajayi is really fresh, after recovering from broken ribs earlier in the season, Ajayi has only 18 carries for 108 yards and a heady 6.0 YPC. Last season at Boise St., Ajayi had 347 carries, so I think Ajayi would love to get some carries the rest of the way. In other words, there is no excuse not to run the ball. The stats bear out when we pass more than 40 times we lose almost every time. Our O-line seems so much more settled when he have balance of rushing to passing.
I think because we’re going to commit to the run, we will see improvement in our offense. Rishard Matthews is banged up, but we drafted Devante Parker for a reason, so now he gets his chance, and it’s time for him to seize the opportunity. I’d also like to see TE Jordan Cameron more involved. He seems very underused for some reason, and I don’t get why. In weeks 3,4 and 5, Cameron was targeted 8,9,8 times, but since then, he hasn’t been targeted more than 5 times. Incidentally, he hasn’t logged more than 4 receptions in a game this season.
Regarding the 3-4 defense as opposed to the 4-3, I think it’s a talent issue, not a scheme issue. Our LB’s are awful, and if we were to change to a 3-4, the only 2 fits I could see at LB would be Vernon (OLB) and Misi (ILB). I don’t think anyone else we currently have on the roster (excluding Dion FF) who fits at LB in the 3-4, and that would also likely mean Suh moving to 3-4 DE, which I’m not sure he would want to do, so I don’t think it’s likely.

Q – Tannehill?
Overpaid? Oversacked? Overrated? Underprotected? Underappreciated? All of the above?
I know stats don’t tell the whole story, but it’s really so unfair to cavalierly (thanks Kong!) compare Ryan Tannehill to Chad Henne. Checkdown Chad has 58 TD’s and 63 INT’s and has a less than 60% completion percentage. He has a higher INT % (3.2) than a TD % (3.0). Some people here have gone as far as comparing him to Henne, and that’s just silly. He compares much closer to Superman (Mac Notwen). Ryan Tannehill has a career 62.0 completion %, Cam Newton has a 59.1 %. Ryan has a 4.0 TD %, Cam has a 4.5 TD %. Ryan has a 2.5 INT %, Cam has a 2.8 INT %. Cam had 14,426 passing yards after his first 4 seasons, and Ryan has 14,245 passing yards after 3 season, 11 games. The biggest difference is in rushing yards and rushing TD, where Cam has a huge advantage. Cam had 2571 rushing yards and 33 TD’s, while Ryan only has 817 rushing yards, and 4 TD’s.
Anyway, it’s not really about Ryan vs Cam, or any other QB for that matter. We need a better team, it’s as simple as that. We need better coaching. Tannehill was on the rise until this clusterf*ck of a season happened. We started off slow with Joe Philbin at the helm, we rallied for 2 games against lesser competition and dominated, and then fell back to earth against the Patriots and Buffalo, and then eked out a win against the Eagles, and lost miserably to Dallas and the Jets. It’s so hard to fairly assess Tannehill this year, it just is. I know he hasn’t played his best football, and yes, he seems aloof, or uncaring at times, which admittedly upsets me, but what Ryan needs is Dan Campbell to hug him and tell him “It’s not your fault” It’s not your fault” It’s not your fault” Maybe Ryan says “Not you Dan”, or maybe he just cries like a baby, I’m not sure.

Q – Dear Axe Mike,
With 5 games left . . .
If you could axe Ross 1 question, what would it be?
…and if you could tell Mancampbell 1 thing what would it be?
Sincerely,
GDP searching 4 answers.
OK, here goes:
–
Mike E: – Mr. Ross, isn’t it about time that we just wipe the slate clean, from the top, all the way to the bottom, find a qualified HC or GM, and start all over, with a new regime entirely, keeping no one currently in office?
Mike E: – Dan, I appreciate everything you did for the Dolphins, both as TE’s coach, and as Interim Head Coach, but I think it’s time (Mike E. starts running away) we bring in a qualified (running faster!) Head Coach to run this team, one who can not only inspire the players, but one that ( running even faster now!) (pulls hamstring!) (limping) that can manage a game, and command his staff, one that knows what type of players and schemes on both offense and defense he wants to run, and knows which coaches (out of breath and limping badly) he wants to do this, (as ManCampbell jogs over to a limping Mike E in a menacing fashion) most of all, I thank you, and hope your time as interim HC in Miami affords you better opportunities in the future!
______________________________________________
from Stanger
Q – What does Coach Rambo have to do the rest of the year to be our Head Coach next year? Is there even a chance of it?
stanger
I don’t think if ManCampbell wins out, it’s going to make a difference as to whether he’s in the running for HC next year.
If they want to seriously make changes, and try to create an entirely new system, Campbell’s name shouldn’t be in the running. If Ross insists that we keep Tannenbaum and Hickey, and just try to fill the slot of HC, and coordinators, I think once again, we have made the mistake of not tearing everything down and starting fresh. I suppose if that’s how they go about it, then Campbell may be a contender for the job no matter what we do the rest of this season. I think that would be a shame, no different than keeping Ireland on after Sparano was fired, and no different allowing Joe Philbin to choose a GM that suited him. For once, please do the right thing, and tear it down completely, top to bottom, and build something from the ground up, and stop trying to fit bricks in on the 33rd floor that fit. Enough of that, it doesn’t work!

Before they started changing the headhunting rules, you couldn’t throw a slant or crossing pattern into the middle of the field whenever you wanted to because you’d get your receiver killed. It was the QBs responsibility on when to make those kind of throws and it was common to say “the QB got his receiver killed (injured or whatever)”. Reading those middle of the field plays was a necessary skill for QBs to have.
The rule changes have made it harder for defenses to punish those types of pass plays so we see a lot more of them in today’s game. Only really good secondaries consistently punish receivers in the middle now. I’m not sure the younger QBs even develop that awareness now, or worry about getting their receivers hurt.
After seeing that vine of the play, I can see why Tanny made the throw. The defender covered a lot of ground from the opposite side to be in position to make that hit. When I saw it on TV, I thought it was a poor choice by Tanny, but seeing it from that angle, IMO the defender just made a great play.

HERDFAN: FWIW, Me and Mrs. OD spent a terrific weekend in Wheeling, WV, soon after we moved to Cowlumbus, Ohio. The sights were neat and the folks at the bed and breakfast were ultra nice in a down home way. She met Sen. Jay Rockefeller who is every bit of 6′ 9.” We found him to be far more intelligent than the other senator from your state at the time (Robert Byrd). However, we were unable to convince “JR” to move to Ohio so WE could have an intelligent senator! Anyway, I’ve never thought West Virginia was particularly IQ deficient. Indeed, one of the smartest persons I’ve ever met graduated from WVU’s school of dentistry. He’s an all-around renaissance man with expertise in dozens of subjects outside of dentistry. However, that said, there are large numbers of REALLY smart people down here, too. That’s partly due to 8 state universities with enrollments ranging from near 25,000 to nearly 50,000 (UCF). Throw-in West Florida, Bethune Cookman, Florida A&m and Florida Tech and you’ve got more smart people. -Plus there’s more than 20 private universities, including that one in Coral Gables where Miss Gigi graduated from. Florida still has a way to go to climb into the upper echelon, but I believe the incoming Speaker of the Florida House has committed more millions in increased funding to “help make it happen.” ZERO sarcasm.

So an ape looks at a vine, and now he can tell that Tannehill made a good throw, and the defender just made a great play. I’ll take that over Omar watching coach’s film any day of the week.
LOL
I’m not necessarily saying it was a good throw; it’s more about the decision to make the throw.
Regarding the throw I don’t know if maybe Tanny saw the defender at the last second and it affected the throw, or maybe he tried to pull his receiver away from the hit by throwing slightly behind him……….or maybe it was a bad throw, lol.
Thanks OD but truly I’m not upset….we have some intelligent people as well as idiots here….the same as everywhere else. I really was just commenting on the system for getting the driver’s licenses and then it took a turn somewhere. lol

this is interesting
Mike E; FWIW, according to my oldest daughter, stands for “For What it’s Worth.”
————-
BTW (“By The Way,” NOT “Bite the Weenie”)–Mike that was another solid effort. I completely agree with you on the need for a total overhaul from top to bottom. And, the FIRST place Ross should start is Metamucil Carl Peterson, otherwise known in Kansas City as the Enemy of the Season Ticket Holder for all the things he did to once-loyal fans of the Chiefs. I have little doubt that King Carl’s “Shaft the Ticket Holder’s” Philosophy is behind the recent ticket price hikes and stadium improvement delays announced by the Dolphins. Peterson needs to go NOW. Anything I can do to hasten his departure (like cutting off his metamucil supply) I’d be more than willing to do.
#2) TANNENBAUM MUST GO NOW!! –After getting fired by the Jets, T-Baum spent several hundred million of Ross’s money TO PRODUCE A TEAM THAT’S WORSE THIS YEAR THAN THEY WERE LAST YEAR!!!!! AND, thanks largely to T-Baum, we are in salary cap hell!!! –OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!
#3) All of us who called for Philbin’s head 2 years ago HAVE BEEN PROVEN RIGHT!!–Now Ross IS the guy who approved this hire. But I’m guessing that Peterson gave Ross the green light on this, just as he did for countless other botched decisions Ross has made since he bought the team. But make NO mistake: the upcoming hire for head coach MUST be a good one!! Instead of seeking advice from Flunkie #1 or Flunkie #2, Ross SHOULD ASK BILL POLIAN for a list of 5 names he SHOULD BE CONDIDERING to select the Dolphins’ next head coach. Betcha’ Polian the Hall-of-Famer WON’T have Parcells, Sparano, Philbin or some other goofball on his “LIST OF 5.” –We ALL believe Ross has been poorly advised. It’s high time he listened to a Hall-of-Famer!
#4) NOT sure if Hickey should be retained. He’s CERTAINLY MADE BETTER PICKS than his predecessor, Jeff Ireland But, at a minimum, the scouting department needs to be upgraded. –Again, Bill Polian COULD, no doubt, give Ross a couple of names that would significantly upgrade our scouting department. Is ROSS SMART ENOUGH to take the advice of a proven winner??–I hope Ross makes it REALLY CLEAR to Polian that he, Polian, will be appropriately compensated for his advice!! And Polian won’t even have to quit his full-time job as an analyst for the NFL Network. He can just take on this little task in his spare time!!
—————–
ROSS ALSO needs expertise in the ticketing and public relations area. Right now, WAY TOO MANY season tix holders HATE HIS GUTS!! But that can be remedied, too! –THAT will be the subject of another future post.
OD – I was kidding brother!
I KINDA THOUGHT SO, but, I HAD to get in that “BTW” comment!! Thanks, again, for this week’s effort! AND don’t forget to look for me and Young Stanger at the game on Sunday. I’ll have my huge Dolphins’ Flag and my “FINS WIN sign, even if it RAINS!
Will do OD, and thank you!
MIKE E; I HAD to laugh at your attempt to flee Coach Campbell’s expected wrath!! Truth be told, Campbell should be able to land a TE coaching gig somewhere in the NFL. If NOT, I’d CERTAINLY LOVE to have him as a TE (and motivation) coach at my alma mater, Florida Atlantic University!
OD
BTW and FWIW, I love Bill Polian, and I’d be more than happy if Ross got any and all advice from him.
YUP. –It AMAZES ME how long Ross has continued to listen to, and employ, these sources of BAD ADVICE!

Not as in the way a tourist visits somewhere, but if you grow up in WV, you have WV history in 8th grade and you learn all about it and know all the places. Since we became a state during the civil war(a succession from a succession), the whole state is a civil war site of sorts.

That was an unbelievable ending! I can sort on see why they called it because Rogers pulled his own head when the rusher was attempting to tackle him, but come on. I think there was a ref right in front of him, and he should have seen that play was not a face mask. At least not at the end of the game; that’s a tough call to make there in that spot.

Why bother putting salt in your wounds? Armando loves to do this shit. It’s not like we’re not aware that 4-7 sucks. The HC, DC and OC have been fired. That’s usually not a sign of a good season. LOL
It’s all just getting old. Going to that game really soured me. We weren’t even competitive, until garbage time, which means nothing as far as I’m concerned. Win that game, there’s a chance, lose, like we always do, and it’s over. We just always lose those games, and man, it’s just old.
Mike, I don’t disagree. But I’m surprised you’re not up to speed with it by now. I thought most of us felt this way weeks ago. The Jets game just confirmed it and added one more firing in Lazor.
I guess. Seeing it in print somehow makes me angrier. lol
LOL
Once we started talking about possible new czars and HC candidates I figured we were all there.
I’m also at the point where I don’t care which players we let go or keep. We haven’t won with any of them anyway. Obviously we have some talent and we’re not going to replace the entire of roster but the vets who have not helped this team win and make too much money are likely out. However I do think Suh and Tannehill will be here next year.

I have a feeling we’ll being saying OMG, why didn’t we fire Lazor during the past offseason soon enough.

If we start running a real offense, and we start tearing it up under the new OC, then I figure Lazor deserves a mild beating at the hands of Dolphins fans, at the very least he should be required to sit still for a few hours of in your face verbal abuse, lol.

Dan Campbell said expect Matt Hazel to play on Sunday. “He is another one of the young guys I feel has really come along.”
The org is in let’s see what we have mode.

😦 that sucks. People that have never fired anyone often don’t realize that it can be as emotionally hard on the person doing the termination as it is on the one getting terminated.
Yep. I feel lik the grinch
Unless you were firing FFR 😉
Anyone ever see the movie Naked Lunch?
Piggy & FFR have.

“At the end of it we are all going to be evaluated. We understand that,” Dan Campbell on the Dolphins’ low moral.
_______________
LOL smh
The spelling? LOL
Yes.
Kong, even though it was a questionable call, this was the fifth time since 1978 that a team has won like that.
I haven’t seen the play yet so this may be a dumb question, but only the 5th time that a team has won on a hail mary at the end of the game? That doesn’t seem right
Since 1978. That’s what I heard on the radio. It might also have to do with the distance. This was the longest (61) ever so maybe that’s it.
Wow, I just watched the video. Lol, that is nuts. I’d be pissed if I was a Lions fan. They have a hard enough time beating the packers as it is without the pack getting a win that way too.
Any of you Cali peeps anywhere near where that shooting was?
Omar Kelly ✔ @OmarKelly
“You tell them the door is not closed. I’m willing to give (them) a shot,” Campbell said on Taylor & Aikens being demoted.
Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley
Campbell said “I would like to get the tight ends involved this week.” Acknowledges it’s been a problem.
That’s because your previous OC was a subversive. No other way to explain it. I bet opponents watched film of us and were like what the fuck are they doing?
Kong, it’s only 5 pass plays over 50 yards to win a game at the end.

I had to terminate someone today. No fun at all. 🙁
*********************
You fired them, or fired AT them, bullet in the back of the head?
the first. I’ve been told to not be surprised if my tires are slashed over the weekend
That sucks Herd. I only had to fire two people in my life. One felt good because he was an ass, and he was fucking up, but the other one I felt awful about.
This one gave me plenty of reasons but it was a workforce reduction. Still hate it for anyone this time of year.
i have fired one person in my career. well i directly did it, others i just had them fired by others. but the only one i ever had to do on my own was for…..wait for it……wait……….sexual harassment
Rob
Can you do that? Sexually harass them, and then fire them? lol
Lmao!
The guy probably called FFR a wanker….and he would’ve been correct.

Did you guys hear that piece of shit woman who was involved in the killings in Cali was a trained terrorist who basically subverted her husband to get here and brainwashed him into it. That’s a tactic they use so lets allow lots of refugees into the country because I’m sure none of them will be terrorists and then Obama can focus on guns being the problem.
We have our own nut jobs already that are almost impossible to detect until they act. These foreign terrorists are militants who don’t care if they acquire shit legal or illegally (I know the guns were obtained legally in this instance) but they can go the illegal route easily because they don’t plan on going to jail for it, they will die fighting after they commit their carnage.
These fucks need to be eradicated globally by the super powers because they’re a threat to all of us. Kill ‘Em All!!!
Tim, as of yesterday both the FBI & BO were still not calling that couple ‘terrorists’…but we are for wanting our borders closed and patrolled.
Well that changed today.
RIP Robert Loggia
I always liked him. He was great in BIG.

hey, you bet your ass they learned their lesson about saying no.
Eradicate them?
Great idea but will never happen.
There are like 10 billion of those Mother Fuckers alive in this world today.
No way in Hell we can kill that many.
I do like that Russia is after their ass too but we are far from ever being on the same side.
I’m waiting for the day when when of these Radical Mallitias we have here in the USA takes matters into their own hands and opens fire in some of their Mosques. And hopefully it is when they are having their 9/11 celebration
SCUM OF THE EARTH!
‘These fucks need to be eradicated globally by the super powers because they’re a threat to all of us. Kill ‘Em All!!!’
tim, i have a much better idea. they should all be made to be dolphin fans. although i am sure that would be called cruel and inhumane punishment
And may I add; Obama is more sympathetic to them than us.
To me, calling them ISIL shows them respect…
You Politically Correct Pussy!
VOTE FOR TRUMP!
Yeah and if we even give one of them a dirty look while passing in Walmart we would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law
Here’s the thing about the terrorists vs the refugees…How are you supposed to tell the difference? It’s not like they have a label on them saying terrorist. A man, his wife and a two year old child. Sounds fairly harmless doesn’t it? And yet if we question anything about anyone, we’re labeled as racist.
herd,
is it really being labeled a racist or racial profiling? you know that thing each and every one of us does every single day in our normal lives.
Of course you do it in everyday life if you’re smart. We teach our children to do some profiling, like the guys in a van with puppies for you to see. Nothing wrong with that. I’m a Proud Profiler! lol
Little 2 year old will have an AR-15 by the time he is five
KILL THEM ALL!
come on Howie you don’t mean the innocent people also. ISIS has not claimed responsibility for the mass shooting yet. They usually claim responsibility quickly. This could just be a lone wolf attack. Here is something you were talking about that was available years ago. Cool weapon that can avoid killing innocent people.

They don’t have to. Jihad is an ideology. It’s all celebrated as good work and God is Great.

yeah, to bad my parents never told me about the van with candy.
I profile all the time. It’s nature. That doesn’t just mean black people or Muslim looking people or suspicious Hispanics etc. It means anyone I deem suspicious including the red headed bearded dude who is acting weird or the white woman who looks like she’s up to no good. Am I suppose to close my eyes and pretend all is good and there is no suspicion? You know when you see something isn’t right. I don’t care what they look like.
When law enforcement officials say the perps look Middle Eastern I don’t look for Swedish looking people. Let’s stop telling people to be instinctively stupid. It’s stupid.
We have an enemy from a certain region and faith and if you want to ignore it in the name of the innocent, go ahead, but we don’t know what some of these people are up to because many of them pretend to assimilate and then strike. They even build up that trust for years. That’s our enemy and that’s the only way they can accomplish their agenda because they can’t do it militarily. So just keep saying awe come on, not all of of them are like that. That’s not the point. The militants disguise themselves as ‘not all of them are like that’. We still treat it as if we can’t treat it like that. Okay, this will never end then. Enjoy!
sounds like your reasoning is along the line of Hitlers. These attacks are gonna continue until we are able to settle the isis threat in the middle east. We can’t go into a country and take over the country and then rebuild it. We are no good at that. The fact that these radicals will hide among the population requires a new strategy that will weed them out.The Muslim population is very large which is 2nd among religions of the world.
Your first sentence was ignorant and then you contradicted yourself with the rest of your post as you basically aligned yourself with what I’m saying. Read it again.
I never said exterminate innocent people who are not our enemies. I was saying know your enemy and destroy them. Jews were not terrorizing Germans and killing them. They were part of society and building lives and then Hitler’s fucked up xenophobia and the blaming of the Jews kicked in.
Not at all the same.

hey asswipe, why do just the Hispanics have to be suspicious. lol
and tim, it isnt just about danger. we do it in every day life. about every day things. you see some chubster in one of those electric karts at the grocery store. most immediately think stop eating fatty, yet we have no idea if that person has a health condition or not.
LOL,
I get it though, we judge in our minds all the time but some people just can’t bring themselves to admit it. It’s human nature. We have that ability. If you people watch do you see no difference in them? How about wildlife? Birds, frogs, bears, snakes, alligators, puppies and kittens all the same? LOL
Alah Ahkbar!

1% of 10,000 is 100. And they told two friends, and they told two friends, and they………
That’s how it works. But they’re here now and they know they have that avenue. They take advantage of our freedom and stupidity. I’m sure they laugh at us too. Like I said, enjoy! I don’t enjoy it.
howie, the same can be said about any nationality.The melting pot of this country is what makes us the greatest nation on earth. Look at these other countries and they are fighting among 4-5 nationalities for control of their country. We have hundreds of nationalities in US and we don’t have civil wars and we elect our officials through honest elections. There’s a saying about one bad apple I can’t think of right now.
It IS OK to talk Dolphins here, right??

Getting my one small suitcase ready for the trip to south Florida tomorrow. Got my big Dolphins Flag (about 4′ by 6′) and my FINS WIN SIGN. 60% chance of rain on Gameday (good for RUNNING the football!). Many in south Florida, including my sis and brother-in-law’s place, are WITHOUT LAND LINE PHONE SERVICE DUE TO MANY DAYS OF RAIN. Kinda reminds me of the Jets/Dolphins AFC Championship Game in the historic Orange Bowl!! I’d be OK with a similar 14-0 Miami victory!! Ex-Jet Woody Bennett and linebacker A.J. Duhe scored the 2 second half touchdowns for Miami in one of the most important games in the history of the franchise! –Bring on the rain!!
We can’t go into a country and take over the country and then rebuild it.
yeah, i am sure japan is pissed how we rebuilt them.
Germany, too. And ze French, oooohh-la-la! But DON’T mess up the vineyards, monsieur.
and how is Iraq working out? US wasn’t prepared for this mess on how to rebuild. How is the sunni’s and kurds supposed to settle which gov’t is best for the people?

Where Isis is concerned I have the ultimate solution.
They have taken Ramahdi, Falujha and other places where so many Americans have fought and died(I saw tat shit coming the minute we pulled out)
Send them back to the dark ages, We cant beat them with the most sophisticated Military in the world but we are over looking one thing
ELECTRICITY!
Fuck the population who might suffer, just bomb the hell out of every powr plant in Iraq and Syria
then blast all Fuel trucks coming up from saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Yemen, and anywhere

well i guess. the conversation was about terrorist. and well they terrorize us fans
Howie, we’re dealing with 7th century ideology already, they just happen to have some 21st century weapons. Dangerous mix. Look how many of their women are treated and the rules/laws they live by. It’s absurd. Keep it where you came from if it’s so important to you. That’s not how we roll here. Simple as that. Assimilate or stay home.
