    Ken,
    Nobody gives the big nasties any love. I’m just trying to do my part. Lol

    Yeah, that’s two dogs in two years, but they were old. Found this one on the welcome mat of the front porch.

    SB I’m sorry to hear that brother!
    Got a 15 year old Lab that’s going to need to be put to rest soon! 😦

    Yeah….. when it comes to throwing on the move, Cutler is no RT17……

  8. Anyway, as you can imagine, the Dolphins were completely blindsided by the situation. Coach Adam Gase was asked about it on Monday, but didn’t have much to say.
    “It’s not a good situation,” Gase said, via the Miami Herald. “It wasn’t something that you would expect. Things happen sometimes that you don’t anticipate and you have to deal with it. It’s not fun, especially when you’re close with somebody. You’ve got to take the next step and move on. We’re going to play on Sunday.”

    • Gase and Foerster were close? And Gase didn’t know of him liking Vegas coke ho,s and cocaine?
      I guess it’s possible, sure, but says a lot about Gase evaluation skills.
      This team has too much adversity, FO and Gase need to get the house in order

    SBVIIMVP; So sorry about your loss!! But I’m so thankful you provide a home for those who need one so much!!
    —————————–
    Local fish wrap noted, upon his passing at age 90, that Y.A. Tittle’s record of 36 TD passes in one season was broken by Dan Marino in 1984 when Dan threw 48 TD passes!! —But that’s only PART of the story.
    In 1961, legendary QB George Blanda ALSO THREW 36 TD PASSES for the Houston Oilers!! Some observers, however, (especially NFL loyalists) refused to recognize Blanda’s achievement because it took place in the “inferior” American Football League. However, when the AFL’s best defeated the NFL’s best in Super Bowls III, IV, VII and VIII, this talk about an “inferior league” died down quite a bit. That was especially so when the Dolphins went 32-2 over a span of two seasons, winning Super Bowls VII and VIII.
    So, today, let’s celebrate the great careers of Title, Blanda and Marino!!

    • ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

      I think Kansas City changed the view of the AFL when they beat Minnesota in the superbowl in 69. I remember the NFC championship vikes/Rams when Gabriel got sacked in the endzone for a Safety. when i was a kid i knew i could never be a football player, my shoulders were too small, i didn’t understand how those guys had such big shoulders???

  10. Finsmob-exoduss.org will be reopening, I appreciate Mike allowing Me to post here, great guy!
    All the guys here are great, nothing like guys and football talk!
    Peace everyone!

    Great News.. My sister got a call from a friend who’s a firefighter and told her that her neighborhood is safe. Surrounding areas saw some homes destroyed.. Very Sad !! Still a big fire with zero containment.. Hopefully the winds die down today.

  12. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    Kind of sad, but I don’t really feel any juice for this season. I’m excited to go to the Fest, but I feel no enthusiasm about our team at all.

    • The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

      I’ve already decided I won’t be going to slatterys this Sunday

      I will probably watch NFL redzone me for the first half and then try a local sports bar at halftime

      This offense is painful to watch
      In general I’m just not real excited about the NFL these days

      Its not political, it’s just boring me

  13. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    Sorry about your dog SB

    • sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

      Thanks Piggy. He was old and we kind of expected it sometime soon, just not this soon. I’m just glad he was a small breed. Digging a grave is a workout.

  14. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    Piggy

    That’s pretty much it in a nutshell, it’s just boring, our team and the NFL in general. Nothing is drawing me in.

    • D's avatar D says:

      Yeah i think im going to take the out Direct TV gave on the season ticket, not really because i am so pissed at the players for kneeling or whatever they are doing these days, but because im just kind over NFL football right now.

      • D's avatar D says:

        My college team just lost a game they shouldnt have and we need a new coach, so time to start that crap all over again, so im not getting a lot of enjoyment out of any football to be honest.

  15. D's avatar D says:

    Sorry to hear about your dog SB, good to see you post though, i was wondering how you made out from the hurricane.

  16. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    I’m not really a huge NBA fan, I haven’t watched much of the Knicks the last half a decade or more, but I feel like I might start watching the Knicks again, now that Phil Jackson is gone, and Melo too. They should be more fun to watch, they have some interesting young players.

  17. ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

    A lot has happened to this team in a short time, Losing Tannehill and all the other injuries, the Hurricane disruption, The anthem protest, the OL coach. No Bye, it’s been a rough start for sure

  18. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    SB – My condolences on your doggy. I cried when I buried my kids hamsters. On the other hand, what shouldn’t have been a workout was, because the soil was so damned hard.

  19. ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

    Piggy’s losing interest because his WR’s are not making great game breaking catches, every draft year he want’s all the wr’s in the draft

  20. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    Have any of you Northern types ever eaten Indian pudding?

  21. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    I got into a discussion over the weekend with some extended family over the NFL, and the protests. He claims to be an NFL fan, but has no allegiance to any team (Which essentially means he’s not a real fan). Anyway, I can see with him, despite hiding behind the “It’s disrespecting the flag” argument, for him, it’s all about BLACK and WHITE, or in this case, just the BLACK. Juts calling it like I see it. I didn’t really engage him beyond explaining that players like Kenny Stills have gone into the inner cities and had dialogue with community leaders and police officials in order to change things. He basically brushed it aside, and said why should police change when all they want to do is kill them and each other? That ended it for me right there.

    • stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

      I follow politics a lot, but when it comes to whether players kneel or not….literally could not care less. Well should say care less cause I do, because the whole thing does disturb…..mainly as a sign of how politics are dividing this country in the last few years in ways it hasn’t since the Vietnam War. And obviously that is on purpose, least by some.

    • Wow, someone gets it. Damn good post, I had to pop in and compliment someone who can think on their own, instead of just blindly follow! lol 😎

  22. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    SB – Never heard of it. What is it?

  23. D's avatar D says:

    Dont know how i got stuck on the last blog but i was posting away to crickets. I was like well they finally did decide to just skip over my posts after all lol.

    I like cornbread, and I like pudding, so I would guess I would like Indian pudding. I’ll have to give it a shot.

  27. ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

    That’s great that Stills would do that, and it’s not about black and white, it’s about red, white and blue. and while i understand the grievances i don’t think holding the American flag hostage is appropriate.

    • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

      For you it might be, but not for the person I was talking to, and I’m sure, more than half the people who are non-military.

  28. D's avatar D says:

    Jemele Hill now calling out Stephen Ross because he asked players to no longer protest during the anthem, but to find another way to bring the same attention. He didnt make those that felt opposed to it, come out and stand, that’s why Still and the two Thomas’ stayed in the tunnel. Still even said his protest now is against Trump and would stop when Trump apologizes, which i think is definitely not a hold your breath until situation.

  29. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    No one is holding the American flag hostage by kneeling. Why the need to go hyperbolic to prove a point? The whole anti-kneeling argument is baffling, because it’s incredibly contradictory to itself and the American values of freedom.

  30. Phindog's avatar Phindog says:

    SB7.. Sorry to hear about your dog. 1 of the hardest things in life to go through.

  31. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    Mike, in the words of Gordon Ramsey, it’s F@-#ing delicious. You should try it. It’s kind of time consuming for a 9×9 pan, but I find it’s worth it.

    • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

      I’m not much of a baker, but I’d give it a shot. I just looked up a recipe that sounded interesting, adding apples into the mix

  32. ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

    Yes they are, is their protest against the military or the people who fought for this country? is that the cause of social injustice? That would be NO! so why the disrespect the flag? is it because the need to get a point across? Does The Flag provide a stage? and that is my definition is holding the American Flag and all it stands for hostage.

  33. stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    You want to feel good about the Phins (least the D)? Read this piece by Schad…really well done. Includes:

    “Oh, so this is why the Dolphins didn’t cut Lawrence Timmons after the disappearance. This was vintage Timmons. Attitude. Hunger. Desire. Timmons showed really good recovery and foot speed in this game. In the second quarter, Timmons was moving right but realized a tight end was about to head in the other direction. He planted his feet, turned back and covered five yards in a manner that belied his age. This is exactly what Miami’s defensive corps lacked last season. He is an aggressive thumper. This linebacker corps has been completely revamped. Experience. Speed. Aggressiveness. Nasty demeanor. Timmons leveled rookie tight end Jonnu Smith and then talked trash in his face. This was lacking last season. This defensive group is not soft. It is the opposite of soft.”

  34. ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

    I’m done with this kneeling BS, no matter what is said it won’t change things, you guys have a nice day.

  35. stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    Sorry — forgot the link to the Chad article, but also gives me a chance to add in one more part…. “Imagine you’re an opposing quarterback and it’s third down and you scan from your right to left and you see along the line… Cam Wake, Ndamukong Suh, Kiko Alonso, Lawrence Timmons, Andre Branch and Charles Harris. Very intimidating. Very explosive. Very athletic.”

    Rob

    What if they played God Bless America before games, and not the national anthem, and they kneeled during that, would you feel differently?

    • ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

      let me know when they start doing that and i’ll consider my position on the matter.

      • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

        I’ll do that, but you didn’t really answer the question

      • ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

        the question is hypothetical, Not sure where you’re going with this? are you searching for my religious beliefs? if so i keep that info personal

    • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

      Rob – Not in the least. My point is they’re doing it to get attention, because people are paying attention. It’s just because the “tradition” is to stand for the national anthem, whereas God Bless America, that’s not the case.

      • ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

        I get that, but my argument is they are using the Flag for their stage, and i understand why, to get attention. well they got it. to continue to disrespect the flag is lame and they are still holding the flag hostage. the flag is innocent in their cause. it’s time to let go.

Anyway, I can see with him, despite hiding behind the “It’s disrespecting the flag” argument, for him, it’s all about BLACK and WHITE, or in this case, just the BLACK. Juts calling it like I see it.

    —————————————–
    While i completely disagree with your extended family members i will say that things on the outside have been turned into a black and white issue as many things have recently. There is a contingent on either side that think this is black vs white. You can see this by just looking at how people react.

    First, when Trump said “Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when someone disrespects our flag to say, `Get that son of a bitch off the field right now! Out. He’s fired! He’s fired!“…immediately people said he was racist for saying that because he was targeting blacks. How can that be true if his remarks are at anyone who protests. If you have race in the forefront of your mind, sure you could generalize that most protesters are black and therefore anything directed at protesters is directed at black people, but thats because you, as the person interpreting it, are making it racial. That is also how a lot of blacks see anyone who disagrees with the protesting, they cannot see those groups true complaint because they are too determined to label them racists for not supporting it. There is some truth to it, sure, but its not all that needs to be heard, there is a real message out there, one of compassion and understanding, but its completely run over in the media, through political agenda, and hatred.

    On the flip side of it, yeah a lot of people see the protests about disrespecting the country for a racial agenda, but again, thats not all of it. There is a real message to be seen here, one of importance and its where the heard of some of the protesters are. I would say though some of the protestors are very much there, at least at this point as an us vs them statement. Just with anything there are posers hidden among the good people and the good argument. This is where your extended family member is latching on to this, and why he is blind to the real message, and the real problem.

    People a lot of times go into these things with their minds made up, nothing open so they might learn, or change, or realize their own faults. They also get information from sources that think like them which just solidifies their position as being the right one. These people always exist on the outside of issues, and you can only hope that people towards the middle aren’t affected by them wholly so they can actually get shit done. Sadly though we seem to be every approaching the point where those people on the outside are gaining numbers and their voice is the only one being heard. I take the time to argue the middle ground or argue the alternate viewpoint when i find family or friends in those positions. I don’t know that ill make any difference, but being a person they trust or love, maybe how i live my life and how i believe might take hold.

    • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

      In this particular case, it was things he said afterwards. He grew up in a poor neighborhood with blacks and whites, but only the blacks were the ones committing crimes, stealing, dealing drugs etc. “How come I’m not a drug dealer or killing other white people?” That kind of thing.

      • D's avatar D says:

        Yeah, our environment shapes us, it gives us different perspectives, possibly not the right ones or at least very restricted viewpoints and its not until we get out there and experience life and see things from alternate viewpoints. Sometimes we get those from other people we trust but yet have different viewpoints, and sometimes just because we got to experience things from a different perspective ourselves. You will find the most racially insensitive people will be the ones who almost lived in their own little bubble and never really ventured out in life or allowed themselves to interact with others outside their comfort zone. Racism truly is about fear when you cut to the heart of it, it shows itself as hate, but people fear and therefore hate what they don’t and have no way currently of understanding.

  38. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    Rob, kneeling doesn’t disrespect the flag any more than standing honors it. What you fail to see is that all the flag stands for includes the right for people to kneel. This isn’t that hard. It’s 8th grade civics.

    • ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

      I disagree, i guess everyone has an opinion, You seem to want to drive your point home in a different way. your sarcasm get’s old, have you always felt the need to belittle? do you feel inadequate> does belittling people in your mind bring you up to their standards? does it make you feel better about yourself?
      unless you have something intelligent to offer me instead of your feelings of inadequacy please just stop responding to my post.
      Thanks

      Why the need to go hyperbolic to prove a point?

      • sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

        It was a simple question and I was stating a fact. I didn’t belittle you. I wasn’t sarcastic. In a discussion you should be able to adequately support your point without the use of over emotion. I keep pushing you because you have yet to support your points. You just keep repeating the same things as facts that aren’t facts. They’re admittedly your opinion. I can leave it at that if you want but if you want to keep claiming facts then I’m going to keep challenging you.

      • ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

        I must have mis-read your insults, OK, not sure what you don’t understand? Kneeling for the flag is a sign of contempt in mine and numerous others opinions. It is a slap in the Face to the people who served. I understand the freedom that the military and the flag provided for these individuals to give them the right to kneel, and i understand the point they are trying to drive home, i also agree with their point. it’s just time to let go and direct their efforts to the actual culprits of their disagreements. The flag is innocent of their disagreements.

        If you did something wrong to me and i kidnapped your mother would i be right?

        I’m done with this, my opinion wont change.

    I’m here to talk football only, I hope we can make some offensive ground this week, I don’t think benching cutler is the right move. we have to move the ball on the ground against this atlanta D, that will open up the passing game and get Piggy back to slatterys

    • sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

      O Rob, let me apologize for the way that I come across. I’m just a very straight forward no BS kind of person. I don’t deal with too much emotion when having conversations with others much to the chagrin of my wife and kids. I’m almost Android like in the way I interact with people. Think DATA from Star trek.

      • ocalarob's avatar ocalarob says:

        That’s great, but when you make comments like that you bring the emotion out, i’m not emotional at all over it, in my opinion it is a way to cloud the issues discrediting your opponent to further drive home your opinion. i just wanted to address it to put it behind us.

    • herdfan's avatar herdfan says:

      Fine….don’t post any recipes. See if we care! 😉

  42. herdfan's avatar herdfan says:

    We really do need a page to post our recipes. There have been a lot over the years.

  43. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    I’d like to hear some regional recipes of lesser known dishes such as the Indian Pudding I mentioned earlier. Growing up my mom used to make potato candy where you take leftover mashed potatoes and mix it with a butt load of powdered sugar, then you lay it out like dough and spread peanut butter over it. You roll it then cut it in pinwheels. I love both of these things even though I don’t have much of a sweet tooth. I’m more into savory dishes, especially if they involve different ways to cook fish.

    Parker is hurt, so where the F is Leonte Carroo III? Does this not bother anyone else?

    • herdfan's avatar herdfan says:

      I’m saw him standing on the sideline Sunday. I was bothered by many things then. Would be unfair to blame any one thing.

      • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

        Oh I see him on the sidelines too, but that drives me crazy. This is year 2, and with Parker down, he can’t get on the field? Can they at least TRY to get something out of their investment?

  49. Rob, I don’t have anything against You , You actually asked me to block You, but I don’t recall the entire thing. Anyways, I think You are ok to post, I don’t see a block for You

  50. Thanks Ken, I also missed posting articles, so now get a chance for it. I’m not attempting to harm this room, not in past, present , or future. Sometimes I just need my own space

    • Fair warning though, I sometimes get accused of being a liberal, lol
      But I think sometimes people confuse liberalism with Me because I’m environmentalist and someone that just cares about American people, even the less fortunate ones or ones that are commonly discriminated against.

    Carooooooooooo!

  53. I eat close to 100 percent Organic. At first, it was a royal PIA, because restaurants are pesticide cities, and Whole Foods cheats and rips people off.
    But now stores are going greener, and new organic markets are opening, cutting back on processed foods, and concentrate on natural no antibiotic meats, and organic fruits and veggies.

    This is the Best diet I ever tried, but unfortunately, the first week The body goes through a pesticide withdrawal, after that, You feel better than ever, but can never go back to eating toxins in food again

    Pesticide withdrawal? Wow, is that proof this was needed or what

  54. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    If caroo can’t get on The field with Parker out in the 1st qtr instead of grant
    The future in Miami doesn’t look good for him

    I tend to think Carroo would have made that Catch he ate wasn’t able to (just skillwise) but whatever he is doing in practice isn’t impressing the coaches

  55. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    Btw
    Was the catch Landry made for a TD the same play where Grant dropped a TD pass

    are they expecting receivers to make really contested catches?
    I can’t beleive the issue is here receivers not getting seperation

    • twicethethe's avatar twicethethe says:

      Could be a number of issues – it almost seems like some routes are being run lazily (rounding cuts, no hard acceleration in and out of cuts and moves). No aggressiveness. Also, if they’ve pared down the route trees and playbook, then maybe defenders are getting a jump on the limited routes (especially if the routes and plays being run are now well known and getting stale).

    I have 2 backs on a BYE this week, so I just put in a claim for AP. No guarantee I get him, but I gave it a shot. I do have 2 reserve RB’s, Jordan Howard and Alvin Kamara.

    • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

      I’m rolling with Kamara this week. Payton loves the guy and wants to get him the ball.

    • stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

      One thing have learned since told you knew all about FF is that it all changes with how many teams in the league. In a big one…..Peterson is a home run, in Toba’s 6-team one he is a possible upgrade. If yours is ten or more, put in for Aaron Jones as well.

    You may need to be on a plant based diet to live a long life, having animal fat flow thru your blood stream has major medical consequences, or so i’ve been told.
    They say sugar causes diabetes, according to this animal fat causes that, the fat from the animal blocks your cells and stops the glucose or insulin from entering. blocks your veins causes heart disease.
    all these meat and dairy products contribute to the various health organizations like the american heart assoc, the diabetes and cancer assoc as well, if you look on these sites they endorse animal products due to the contributions.
    not only the meat but the contaminates that come from processing it.

    some of the biggest animals on earth are herbivores, you get protein from plants

    were we made to eat meat?

    Very scary

  60. D's avatar D says:

    Mike they were playing Grant when Parker went down. I dont know if its because they had Caroo inactive and they just went with Grant because he is always active for return man purposes or if Caroo has just fallen that far in the depth chart. If Parker is out for next week, and they dont have Caroo active again, thats going to be a really bad sign.

    • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

      Carroo was on the sidelines, I saw him. He’s just not really a part of the team. Pretty sad to be 5th on the depth chart in year 2

    It’s a PIA diet at times, but I’m not going back to toxins and pesticides that can build up over time and make You ill.

    • D's avatar D says:

      You are probably getting a smaller percentage of it by eating “organic” but i promise you man there is a bunch of corruption surrponding the certification and policing of products marked organic. If you dont grow it, the truth is, you cant know for sure that it is truly organic.

    “kneeling doesn’t disrespect the flag any more than standing honors it.” — Not sure I understand. We’re taught to stand as a sign of respect. You stand when you shake someone’s hand, you stand when you pray for the religious among us, you stand during funeral services, you stand during national anthems. Kneeing during any of them is disrespectful. And the guy who started the kneeling said he didn’t respect the flag or America and he said he had to go to Africa to find freedom 9although I note he didn’t stay).

      Not to be argumentative, but last time I was in church, there was a considerable amount of kneeling, in fact they have special pads that fold down.

    • pheloniusphish's avatar pheloniusphish says:

      When you do the opposite of what tradition and societal standards call for, it is disrespectful.

      Mike – Yes there is kneeling in church. But do you not stand in prayer as well? Would it not be disrespectful if the priest said, “ Please stand and join me in prayer.” and you kneltmormremained seated?

        I suppose so. On the other hand, they insist they are not doing it to disrespect the flag or military, so in that regard, it’s up to you whether you take that at face value or not

  66. D, it’s very true there is corruption in the food industry, but non organic part of it is way corrupt as well, lol

    But I have found the longer You are in the organic lifestyle, You begin to figure out what products are real, and which ones are shady as hell. You even discover other things to make our lives better.
    Also substituting what some folks think is ok, for healthier choices Also makes a big part of this organic diet. It’s not just looking for the Organic label, gotta study ingredients and check the company out, lol. I’m super fussy with food.
    Example, no corn starch, or processed sugars, organic honey is the best sweetener .
    All meats grass fed, no antibiotics, and smaller quantities.
    All foods organic certified and checked out. Organic onions make Me cry, non ones won’t! Only real onions bring tears, lol.
    Also No fluoride in toothpaste or water, the cavities protection excuse is crap, flouride is a known health hazard.
    No processed foods with hidden or mystery ingredients, lol
    Organic shampoo means no chemicals get into Your scalp.
    Organic house cleaners , citrus based, versus chemicals with 30 letters in their names!
    There is a Lot to it all, but I wouldn’t put up with the expense and inconvienance if it wasn’t so good for health, I can feel it.

    “Dave DeGuglielmo is returning to the Dolphins’ coaching staff to help fill a void left by offensive line coach Chris Foerster’s resignation, league sources told The Palm Beach Post on Tuesday.

    Although DeGuglielmo will help coach the linemen, his title is not expected to be offensive line coach. Those duties could be assumed by Chris Kuper, who had been Foerster’s assistant, possibly offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen or a combination of them.

    DeGuglielmo (pronounced “Day-Ghoul-Yell-Mo”) coached the Dolphins’ offensive line from 2009-11, primarily under Tony Sparano, before spending two seasons with the New England Patriots that ended abruptly. He coached on the Chargers’ staff last season.”

        But let me ask you – what is going on with the quick pressure

        Is cutler supposed to roll that far to his right?
        Is there a reason the TE chose to double team and let that edge guy get to the RB untouched

      • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

        That was a bootleg gone wrong. That’s what Gase has been talking about. On too many plays one or two or more don’t execute properly. So I’d ask Gase, why is that?

    was it even designed like that

    Look at who saves him from the sack – Fasano, coming from the other side

    • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

      It looks like was suppose to roll to the right and not even throw where he did, but he had to improv because the play was busted. That’s the kind of shit we keep seeing. It’s reminding me of Lazor’s offense and I hate it. That’s why I keep saying I have no answers for the offense. They look out of sync from the head down and that includes Gase.

      • The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

        if it was designed to have him roll out right almost into a defensive player
        and then throw across his body

        that’s pretty questionable play design….lol

      • Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

        No, I don’t think the play was suppose to go where it ended up going. The defender blew up the bootleg to the right. Cutler was looking at targets to the right but had to immediately bail from that. That play wasn’t on Cutler, but the throw was. He could have still completed the pass on a broken play but the throw was off and it dipped low as well. He showed good instincts on that play, but the throw was bad.

    I’m going to say this, only in the interest of being fair. I agree with some of what David is saying about chemicals in all the products we use. I’ve gotten rid of a lot of them myself. As a parent, I keep seeing things that are different from when I was a kid. I used to take a PB sandwich to school for lunch. Now, you can’t send one with your child because so many kids are allergic. Why? Is it the chemical overload we have or genetically modified items in the food we eat? I’m not smart enough to know that for sure, but it certainly can be a reason. So I make that choice. Might not be for everyone, but it can’t hurt IMO.

    As for attacking anyone, my issue yesterday was something was posted here about the infamous video. I hadn’t seen that version reported so I just asked where he had seen it. Simple enough. There were “quotes” around the dialogue that was posted. Then it turns out it wasn’t said at all. You only use “quotes” when you are saying EXACTLY what someone had said. You don’t paraphrase, you don’t make an assumption. That was my issue and I stand by it. Did I get annoyed? Yep. Probably kept it going too long when it was obvious it would change nothing. Probably shouldn’t say anything about it now, but like I said, to be fair, I’ll say when I agree, just the same as when I don’t.

      I don’t think he’s made more than a couple of confident throws. I think he’s pressured and off balance most times, and other times he just seems unsure. I’ve even heard the commentators saying that, as if he’s not confident the receiver will be in the right place.

    • The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

      He’s basically taking a step up and throwing the ball directly in front of him at about 1000 miles an hour on the Grant drop and the Landry TD

      if he has to do any other footwork his arm can’t make the throw

  80. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    I don’t think I’ve seen Cutler take a snap and stand still for one second all season
    He’s immediately moving to the right to the left, backwards or even in the fetus position

    Its like he forgot how to play the position and is just like “I’m going to run around and throw the ball wherever”

      Okay. As I said I’m not much for church and the ones that I have been to were more formal than yours seems.

        I don’t see kneeling as an opposite of standing in regards to showing respect regardless of the traditional connotations associated with it.

    Here is another play (not a video)

    • The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

      I think schad is wrong – mostly bc he is not recognizing that this is a screen pass

      The receivers are clearing the field by stretching it. The OL on the top of the screen are letting the pressure through (as they should on a screen)

      But somewhere between where the RB is and when Jay releases the ball or even tries to throw it – the play is broken

      If Cutler throws the ball over the DL’s head where the RB can make a reasonable catch – that play might go for 20 + yards – maybe even all the way

    • twicethethe's avatar twicethethe says:

      Just as valid a question is why are there 2 OL standing by themselves 5 yards away from any defender. Was this supposed to ne a middle screen or something? If not, that’s not a good look.

        That’s the design of the screen I think

    To me, this is more evidence that Cutler is playing hurt. Maybe it isn’t his arm — as I’ve surmised as of late — but there’s something he’s trying to protect. Perhaps it’s a leg injury (would explain why he can’t generate enough power for a deep ball) or a torso injury (abdominal, chest, etc).

    Whatever it may be, Gase is clearly aware of it… and that would explain why he’s not even bothering to dial up a 9-route for Cutler to throw.

    THAT is why Cutler is so concerned about not getting hit, as you can see in the above video.

    I firmly believe that it’s time for Matt Moore, but that’s just ME.

      • mf13ss's avatar mf13ss says:

        Just to be clear, we DID see Cutler throwing the deep ball in the preseason… and it looked NICE! Something is wrong with Cutler that we aren’t even trying to throw the deep ball now… or even a medium ball, as Brian stated yesterday.

    • twicethethe's avatar twicethethe says:

      Not to disagree with your hypothesis, but the team would have some explaining to do to the NFL in regards to their weekly injury reports if Cutler is in fact nursing an injury and it wasn’t reported. And yes, other teams have played fast and loose with injury reports in the past, but the NFL has been trying to crack down on that.

    M13,
    Cutler has put mustard on several throws this season already…and thrown deep too. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with his arm.

    ———
    I used to think this way when I was younger, but that’s a very bad idea. What you speak of sets the stage for total rebuild and teams don’t want to play for a non-contender. If we tank the season for a higher Draft pick, we just sold out all of the players who took cheaper deals to stay with us.

    Take care of the hands who take care of you, and some players on our team are still playing their heart out in their last year before hitting FA (see Jarvis Landry). If we were to tank the season, guys like Landry aren’t going to eat to get a max deal in FA, and guys like Landry will NOT want to come back.

    It took FAR too long to rebuild this positive culture after YEARS of futility… let’s not mess it up now with ‘tank talk’. FIGHT to get the very best record we can possibly get, even if we’re mathematically eliminated from the playoffs. We owe as much to maintain our positive culture, Brother.
