OK, this is a shocker, no two ways about it! In addition to trading away our cornerstone LT, we also traded away controversial WR Kenny Stills (BUH-bye) and future draft picks, a 2020 4th RD pick and a 2021 6th RD pick. What do we get in return for all of this??? TWO first RD picks, a 2020 1st RD and a 2021 1st RD pick and 2021 2nd RD pick as well. and two players, special teamer DB Johnson Bademosi and OT Julie’n Davenport.
I don’t even know how to digest all this to be honest. Things look great for the future, although now we have to find a legitimate LT which will probably require a high pick. I realize we have now have 2 first RD picks in both next year’s draft and also in 2021, but now the rebuild seems to be full on, and it’s going to require some patience here. While the future looks promising, I have my doubts about how competitive our team will be with a poor offensive line.
I understand well that no player is “untradeable”. There is a value for everything, and GM Chris Grier felt he got more value than he could turn down for his best OL and really the cornerstone of our offensive line, then he did the right thing. Time will tell, because Laremy Tunsil is a great tackle, he was an excellent pass protector as well as a demon in the run game. Kenny Stills was a deep threat WR who has been making big plays for us since he got here, but in limited quantities. He probably should have been more during his tenure here, and his decision to speak up against Dolphins owner Steve Ross probably led to him being a part of this trade as well..
What I guess we all have to realize is that this year is definitely compromised. I would say we all had some doubts about our O-line with Laremy Tunsil, so those doubts just intensified w/o him. Is Zach Sterup our LT? Do our QB’s routinely get “Julienned” if newly acquired OT Julie’n Davenport is playing LT? Do we pick up another LT off the cut scrap heap? LG Michael Deiter’s job just got a whole lot more difficult, wouldn’t you think?
Next year’s draft should be exciting for us, but watching this season, at least for me at this moment, looks to be a scary prospect. I think we’re putting an inferior product on the field on offense, with QB Ryan Fitzpatrick starting behind what appears to be a very shaky O-line. We heard rumors about a locker room revolt if Laremy Tunsil was traded, I suppose we’ll see if that’s true or not. I hope it’s not, because things may tough enough for this team this season without that.
Finsmob Unleashed 
no doubt drake has talent, he has the speed of a wr, maybe behind the FB and a good blocking scheme he can get the 4yds per carry and break loose for big gains but so far he’s been stuffed at the LOS most of the time putting us in long down and distance on 2nd down too much for my liking.
Drakes best asset is a wheel route against a LBer.
Drake is alright running inside, but not behind this line, and not the best we have.
he wasn’t very good last year running behind tunsil and james either.
Gore took his job.
that’s why i say “hats off to the coach” if he can be the #1 rb this year.
I thought Tunsil and James played tackle🤔 weren’t you talking about running inside?
Tackles run block as well, i just forgot who was playing guard for us last year.
Davis playing RG, I have no idea who replaced Sitton.
I also think Kilgore was injured
I want to see Drake make the most of the passes that go his way.
I expect the kitchen sink to be thrown at the Ravens on both sides of the ball. We aren’t going to be lined up in a 4-3 vanilla Wanny D and say beat us if you can.
On O we’ll be using max protect, if we can’t stop the rush, screens, draws, quick passes, and a mixture of OL moving around, including uneven fronts.
If you’re a big fan of not watching the ball, this game may be your SB.
you have to have a productive running game to have success, you have to keep Ds honest, Forget the passing game to Drake, he will have to get the tough yards up the middle if he’s the bell cow.
and so far he hasn’t shown he can do that.
That would be ideal, if Drake could get the tough yards inside, but he really has to just get carries inside, to keep the D honest, so he doesn’t become a 1 trick pony.
he has to put us in a manageable down and distance on 2nd down, preferably 2nd and 6 or less, if we are in 2nd and 8 or 9 we become very predictable which gives the advantage to the opposing D.
if we can keep this game close the 4th qtr will be ours!
IIII I’m signaling 4th qtr, winning time.
The Cheats and Colts really didn’t have great running teams all those years, what they had was a huge passing threat, that’s why they ran the ball so effectively.
We obviously won’t have that, but what we have to do is scheme to run, use odd man fronts, mis-direction, run when they expect pass…
NE was #5 in total rushing, the rams #3, no surprise they played each other in the SB last year.
That’s correct, but when you carry a lead a lot lot those teams did you can run the ball in the 4th. They didn’t win because they ran the ball, but it certainly helped.
I think we’d all like to see us run the ball 85% of the time on 1st down and get no less than 4 yards on each carry, then have 2 downs to pass for a 1st, with 6 or less yards to go.
We somehow blocked Mack last year, we’ll find a way to stop the Ravens from throwing the OL around.
that was a great win!
John Jenkins all 6’4″ and 359 lbs of him is starting week 1. I’ve been saying all along 3-4.
What I really meant was we won’t be seeing many 4 man fronts.
space eater
Run stuffer, scheme fitter, dream maker…
vince wilfork?
Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, one anonymous player on the Dolphins said Alonso was “scolded repeatedly in the May/June practices for freelancing or not doing things how the coaches wanted.”
Vince Biegel, is an intriguing youngster who played a role with the Wisconsin Badgers that is fairly similar to a role that exists in Flores’ defense on the edge — meaning he may well end up being a scheme fit and a solid contributor for the Dolphins.
Wow! Who knew we could dump a contract of a free landing vet, and get in return a good fit young cheap player.
But all we really hear from the U75 crowd is how we’re tanking.
If you have 10 guys doing their job, staying in their lanes, and one idiot leaving his man to try and make a play (against the design of the D), and the ball is thrown to said man’s cover, does it really matter if you have 3 pro bowlers on the field?
What I’m getting at is, what’s the point of having 3 great defenders on the field, when everyone isn’t on the same page. You have to be good collectively as a team, that’s what Flores is trying to breed.
All of these moves say more about player culture and system fit, along with TNT, then tanking.
Suh the freelancer gone, Kiko the freelancer gone. It’s not a coincidence they’ve moved around.
Why do the Pat’s win so much? Because they don’t beat themselves.
Ted Larsen replaced Sitton last year
He wasn’t horrible, but…
He didn’t play poorly, he’s just not that great to begin with
Hey Steve don’t you mess around with me! 😉
I hope snoopy is better than kiko.
The Ravens WR’s don’t scare me, we better be prepared to contain Lamar Jackson and limit Mark Ingram.
With the Ravens unveiling a new scheme for offense and Miami doing the same for defense, it may well be the wild west out there. But definitely agreed the primary focus needs to be limiting how much the defense is gashed on running plays.
Think that is going to be the main worry of this team no matter who we play, but especially when Jackson is out there.
Alabama has the 3 highest rated OLB/ILB/DE hybrid LB’s in the country right now….. 1, 2 and 3. Jesus that defense churns out some fucking talent. They have the top QB and top WR prospect too. Both DT’s are in the top 5. Both CB’s are in the top 3. Both safeties in the top 4.
Might not be sure who our 1st pick will be, but im feeling pretty confident on which school they will be from lol.
God damn it!!!
FUCK NICK SABAN!
The 1st pick in 2020 should be on the OL, and since we don’t seem to value them, I’d say either trade out or take a DE, but no telling how important that position is either, so maybe a hybrid type OLB.
Seems you are way ahead of the game on that. But for sure gonna be some OL coming our way. Lots of picks though. Looking like 6 in the first three rounds….. and then will be all that money to play with.
I was responding to Ds comment.
Thanks for letting me know. Sorry for just commenting on the OL portion of it.
Fake news MSN says we have a shaky QB situation. I think we have the best situation since Marino.
are you for real of Joshing us?
It’s not saying much, but having Chad Pennington here trumps Fitz and Rosen, especially since Fitz is the starter.
I thought of him after I posted, but he took us as far as he could, with that arm.
I seriously love our QB situation. Usually having 2 guys means you have none, but I think they compliment each other well.

The 1st pick in 2020 should be on the OL….
First pick should and will be a QB. (not necessarily Tua and imo hopefully not)
THEN the 2nd 1st round pick can be a linemen if they see the value. Or either two of the 2nd round picks or either or both of the third round picks
It should be our 1st pick, as in biggest need, that’s all I was referring to.
For the pre-season games the Dolphins showed the depth chart (Pretty much the same chart every even when certain players didn’t actually start where they were listed) as a 4-3 depth chart showing three starting LB’s and 4 starting D line. Now they have switched it up showing a base 3-4 with Davon Godchaux, John Jenkins and first-round pick Christian Wilkins as the listed starters on the defensive line and a starting linebacker corps of Jerome Baker, Raekwon McMillan, Charles Harris and Sam Eguavoen.
I know it doesn’t matter because we will be in nickle or dime or some other formation most of the time, but what is the change up about?
I think you hit it with it just doesn’t matter and not just cause we will be in nickle and dime. This new D can’t be pegged as this or that. Not that I’m good at such but I was watching the preseason games going WTF? And that was vanilla.
This is something Tim says all the time and I don’t get that logic of we’re going to be in the nickel or dime most of the time…
The nickel is 5 dbs the dime is 6, notice this relates to dbs or back end. What does nickel or dime have to do with the DL?
The long cold winter is over. Packers/Bears should be a fun opening game.
AB just can’t help himself. He’s probably going to end up losing his job in OAK.
https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/raiders-planning-to-suspend-antonio-brown-after-incident-between-wr-and-gm-mike-mayock/
Wow, I saw him put out a twitter rant blasting the Raiders for having the temerity for fining him (like you would anyone else) for missing practice. Now this. This is male soap opera drama at its finest, lol.
**temerity to fine him**
Tells you how close reports can be wrong. Told you guys before that my chiro said he was her favorite of all the NFL players she’s worked with. Gotta think something is wrong.
I think he’s a giant baby who was coddled by the Steelers. When they stopped coddling him he went off. The Raiders are trying to treat him like other players, and he’s having trouble adjusting. There is a video of him catching a ball and throwing it against a fence at yesterday’s practice, and he reportedly was taking plays off and yelled at a conditioning coach. All signs of a child throwing a temper tantrum.
Who knows exactly why, but this is a guy who was a low round draft choice and became elite. That’s the hard knocks gritty worker thing. It’s just strange now.
what an unmitigated assclown AB is! Let me freeze my feet and almost derail my season. Let me skip meetings and practices, who needs them? I want to play with my OLD helmet, I don’t care if it isn’t approved, I will make a fuss unless I can. Let me post the fine letter from my team’s GM on social media after being fined for missing practice.
Let me threaten and cuss at my GM in front of other team members.
Why don’t you just retire from football you stupid illiterate punk.
That’s the way a lot of us feel, but what if it is CTE? See my post below.
The article said they tried first being really nice to him, then good cop bad cop, and now this. I think they’re tired of his crap.
LOL! That reminds me of Diggsy. I remember when he found Tim’s Dumpster Humpster remark hilarious. 🙂
Haven’t seen Diggsy in quite awhile.
Why would we draft a LT in the first RD when we can put JAG there? I thought that’s the Patriot way
That’s basically what I said, we should take OL, but I dont think they value it.
I honestly don’t think we have to draft a LT right away
But if we have 4 first rounders in the next 2 years
It makes sense that one of them should be a LT
It also makes sense to draft a pass rusher and a QB
We have to see how the draft falls
Maybe we draft a whole new OL within the first 2 rounds over the next couple of years
The nickel is 5 dbs the dime is 6, notice this relates to dbs or back end. What does nickel or dime have to do with the DL?
Who comes off the field when the extra DB comes on? When the 2nd extra DB comes on? the LB’s that’s who (typically, unless you have really fast good coverage LB’s)
that is why. You can’t have a 3-4 nickel. You can still have three down linemen, but not 4 LB’s
You were comparing the 3-4 to the 4-3 saying, then said it doesn’t matter, because we’ll be in nickel or dime most of the time.
It does matter, because we only have 6 DL on the team. What doesn’t matter is whether we’re in the nickel or dime, we’ll still have the base D amount of DL on the field.
We were talking about AB at work, the thing we couldn’t get past was maybe its CTE, after the Burfect hit he hasn’t been the same.
Maybe one of you guys with more knowledge of CTE can chime in?
He’s a nutcase all of the sudden
It’s possible, but it always seems to be the same story with these superstar diva WRs though. At some point the diva becomes too big for the player and they go off the rails. TO, Johnson, Burress, Marshall just to name a few off the top of my head.
This time seems different. We make fun of the divas, but what if it’s more serious and no one notices.
Yeah, you’re right, it’s a legitimate question.
Yeah, I’m seeing articles speculating he might have CTE going all the way back to February.
I haven’t seen any, just heard about the CTE speculation from a guy at work.
Was watching an Edelman interview yesterday and when asked about getting clocked in the SB, Seattle, he just shrugged it off. I think he’s in denial too.
Steve – No way for us fans to tell. We’ve seen things like this play out time after time. Could it always be CTE or is it more likely that there are just some players that think that they’re bigger than the game? I don’t know.
I’d at least go for drugs before CTE. He’s too young and his position not right for it mostly. But then I’d put ego over drugs too.
Position not right🤔
WRs get hit in the head at full speed more than any other.
LOL, not more than a RB, not even close. Not a lot of Diva RBs out there.
Steve — I’d say your most likely CTE guys are LBs. Not just about the impact of the hits but how many.
The best part about the AB story is that Vontaze Burfict needed to restrain him
When you rely on burfict to be the voice of reason, you lost…
Brown has always been a character, he just kept it under control. There was a great article by ESPN or the undefeated or someone on him a year or two ago that delves into some of the issues he’s always had. It’s the same story it always is for these diva types. It’s the craving for attention that makes them divas to begin with, then when you add stardom to it, and people telling them how they are the best, how can that creature not grow to be bigger than the player, bigger than the team, etc.
This crap with Brown really did spiral fast from the end of last year through today, so maybe this is different, but it’s hard not to just see this as just another superstar who is just doing what he do -being the center of the universe.
Tried to post this already but it didn’t show.
https://theundefeated.com/features/steelers-antonio-brown-is-an-instagram-all-pro-but-is-that-the-full-picture/
I get that, but what if he needs help?
All he’s getting is Mayock trying to be a tough guy.
Then I’m sure he’ll be open and receptive to it like all these superstar athletes are. 🤔
Are you serious? Poor AB, getting meany Mayock actually fining him for his BS. That is all he’s getting?
I saw Gruden backing him. I’m sure his teammates backed him. I’m sure the Steelers did everything they could to help him. At what point do they actually treat him like an adult, and start holding him accountable? Or better yet, how do you help someone that delusional or in their own world?

I don’t get that guy, he walks around like he’s a gift to the NFL, he’s no Andre or Calvin Johnson that for sure!
Narcissistic personality a mental condition in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance
He reminds me of the latter years TO, great player but tripping over his own ego.
If we do feel QB is the direction they want to go when we draft. I really wouldnt mind seeing them draft like this. OT, QB, OG, and going UGA UGA UGA. Thomas, then Fromm, then Kindly. That UGA OL looked about as good as you can against Vandy, whose defense is no slouch, they just have no talent on offense. If Tua is the hype and Herbert is right behind him, we could probably get Fromm with the second first. We probably wont get Thomas with the second one. Alabama’s hybrid players on defense would be perfect fits for our multiples defense.
Just read that AB posted the BS about the helmet was just to secure an endorsement deal.
If true they should suspend him for being a terd.
Fuck the CTE scare, he’s just a prick, a me, me, me prick.
I think AB and Mayock should concupiscent, after all AB may be callipygian , maybe they should just be more conviviality and coruscant to each other…..what do you think?
They sell a cream for that! 😉
LOL
Well if you care about grammar then it should read:
I think AB and Mayock should be more concupiscent, after all AB may be callipygous, maybe they should just be more convivial and coruscant to each other…..what do you think?

Thanks for clearing that up, i was stuck in the C’s as you can tell
🙂
LOL, well I learned 2 new words today. I’ll be trying to work callipygous and concupiscent into a conversation today at work just to see what kind of looks I get. 🙂
Be careful, that could be determined as sexual harassment!
That’s the attitude I like to see.

Yeah but TO was a better rec
If the Raiders release Brown, he’d better not end up on the f*ing Pets.
You know that’s what will happen
They just signed him. But if there is a problem a discount for sure would be in play.
Yeah, we all know they just signed him, lol. Reports are they are suspending him, and may release him. His contract is written so the Raiders can release him right now and not have ot pay out any of the guaranteed money, plus they can recoup his signing bonus. So if they are tired of him already, now is the time they can cut bait and not be paying for years to come.
If they cut him, he’ll definitely sign somewhere for a lot less. It’ll be the perfect storm for the Patriots to swoop in and get a stud WR for pennies.
I think what will happen is Brown will realize he’s about to lose 30 million guaranteed, and he’ll be contrite and fool the Raiders into keeping him, then once his money is secure, he’ll continue to be a headache, lol.
He didn’t even get his signing bonus. He failed to meet the criteria, smh.
#dumpsterfire
Cav — you got me to read the article. Never heard of a contract like that before. Thinking there were worries about him before he signed.
That was part of the master plan. Belicheat told AB, if you really are serious about winning a title, cause havoc all summer, then after cut you we’ll sign you.
D, I would go with that UGA draft in a heartbeat!
Rob,
Scheisse, you’re right! Thanks, good looking out, lol.
Picked our 3 pineapples today. Delicious!!! Have some more plants that should produce next year. Should get 5-6 next year.
It’s getting interesting in the NLC! Cardinals have won 21 of our last 27, yet the Cubs are keeping pace, only 3 back. We play 3 in St Louis to finish the season. I bet it comes down to that series. Going to be a fun last month!
Cav, Cards are rolling like I knew they would. Surprised Cubs are staying in it. At least they might make a WC. We will see!

That U75 article doesn’t take into account we’ll be doing whatever it takes to slow down the passrush
I’ll like every other team in the league doesn’t do whatever it takes? Please TNT is bullshit. No actually it’s 100% true but it’s an incomplete statement. It takes no talent to do things right But all things being equal the side with more talent is going to win
It’s not like the other team isn’t going to be doing everything it takes to make sure the pass rush does get there and go by the way their players are better
Is this music?
No, it is not.
I have enjoyed the total coolness of Christian Wilkins thus far, the humor, the witty wisdom, the plus good guy, ultimate teammate, but I have been an “every single minute” fan of his games at my alma mater for a long time, and let me tell you what makes all that “jolly good fellow” stuff work is that Christian can put on a game face as hard and tough and focused and relentless as anybody.
And we’re not talking he did that on an ok team on a middling level; we’re talking about a player who led a team at the highest level of college football, the only team that could take titles away from Satan.
Yep, he was one of my favorite players in the draft. Glad we got him. He’s versatile on the field too.
Rodgers looks old.
He is farther into the end of his career than he admits.
LOL the kicker saga?
PARKEY He was a dolphin
He kicked well for us, got the Big Head, went for Big Money at Chicago, and f’ed his whole career up.
The addition of Jenkins, even at this late moment, is a huge upgrade, because playing alongside a big NT is what Wilkins did at Clemson, instead of having to be that guy himself, which is what they did to him too much in preseason. He can take on triple teams, and he is brave enough to do it, but he is much more valuable when he is freer to hunt.
One word for you:
Vince Wilfork

Happy 2019 NFL Season!!!
DID YOU FEEL THAT?
What is with the Porn Stash?
Billy Turnerstile
glad we cut that shit
Got schooled by Khalil.. was kinda funny now that he’s not here 🤡
We blocked Kahlil and these guys better than this last year.
(Maybe they have gotten better though.)
Would you buy insurance from that man ??
That’s how to push it down the field.
That’s a Aaron Oinkinator Rogers TD to Jimmy Oinkinator Graham

Blasphemy!!!
The bears are a pretty good D
Yes they really are, still can’t stand em
Not really impressed with Trubisky
I’ve never had my butt fingered
That’s too funny 😂
Wilkins, Godchaux, Baker, McMillan, Howard, McCain and Minkah are a pretty impressive young group of defenders to build on. We’re all waiting on Harris to join the fray at another level. He’s got to step up this year.
We need a pass rusher though
Maybe 2 or 3 for a greedy 🐷 like me
Well that’s what I meant about Harris, but yes that’s the next phase for sure. We already know they tried to add that in Flowers and Clowney so we know it’s high on the list.
We’re going to have to scheme a pass rush this year.
Maybe the scheme – deception, will bring the sacks ..
Unit by unit I don’t feel any GLARING weaknesses outside of our OL not having worked together.. even our QB s if the OLine gels , 🙏should be okay fine , hopefully trend to keeper franchise guy
Wtf, anyone have a score for me
Nevermind, it appears I have been replaced
We should draft all pass rushers with the 4 first rounders we have in the next 2 years…lol
Greedy 🐷
I can hear OD already 😊
I want to see how Van Ginkel fits in the scheme. I think he’s in that Ninkovich/Van Noy category.
I’m just afraid he will fall asleep for 20 years
I wanna see Aquaman prove he wasn’t a preseason wonder
Toba, I think we’re going to see LBs with Baker leading the way and DBs blitzing as part of what we do. They”re going to come from all different formations. We’ve already seen it in the PS. But you still have to play solid mano-a-mano football to be good.
I agree 100%, and believe we have the personnel and finally a real coach to make it happen..
What I like about Flores is he’s coaching the entire team, not acting like a specialist. He hired Graham and O’Shea for that. He coaches the entire roster and oversees the mentality of the team. He’s more like what Dan Campbell would have been. It’s not my offense or defense, it’s my team.
Where do you think the sacks usually come from in a 3-4?
We have 6 DL and 8 LBs.
I’m aware. LOL
But 3-4 base won’t be a majority defense. Every team lines up their best talent that gives them the best chance to succeed. That’s what multiple is all about. Strict formations is a thing of the past. Think we did too much of that last year. We were too vanilla.
I’m not talking about the LBs, just how many lineman are in. We can be nickel, dime or whatever.
I’ve been saying since March we’ll be using 3 DL, so the pressure and sacks will come from the LBs, and we real don’t need a stud DE.
Also hope Biegel is a DAWG !!! 🐕
Wilkins should be, playing end in a 3-4.
He can play a lot techniques, that’s what I like about him. Clemson used him outside standing up here and there. Fullback too both blocking and goal line scoring. 🙂
Me Rodgers is not happy with his neighbourhood
Tim : Flores comes across as as much of a hardass as ya can have these days .. need that with a young team .. could be why a lot of vets are jettisoned as well, cause they feel they don’t deserve to be pushed at this point in career
The thing that jumped out at me was the Stills stuff. No way that was going to continue. There are no Stills types on the Pats. It became too much. When M13 told me that Flores confronted Stills about going to him first before going public about his dissatisfaction with the owner Ross and his Trump fundraiser, then Flores starting practice with multiple Jay-Z tunes, the writing was on the wall. LOL
This is how we do things here. If that’s not your thing you’re gone. That’s the Pats model. That’s how Flores has been groomed.
He’d have cut AB by now 🤡
Gone!
Both of these offenses are killing themselves. They both just look bad.
No preseason for qb will do that to ya apparently
Both defenses are bringing it though.
Both defenses do look good, but there have been 3 or 4 delay of games, 3 or 4 false starts, some missed throws, poorly timed holding calls. Definitely some points left on the field.
🗑
lol, that sums it up.
Bears were driving, now it’s 1st and 30, lol.
LOL, make it 1st and 40.
LMao 1-40
That is pretty awesome.
So 4 guys on my fantasy team playing tonight didn’t work out so well
But you’re shutting me out 25-0 🤯
Selflessness and team first. Anything other than that is not tolerated. – Coach Flo
Preach it sister
You got it madam! LOL
Steve, we might see 2 DL or just 1 and 4 or 5 LBs at times. LOL
It all depends on game situation.
You’re killin me. The point was we don’t really need some great sack master DE, and we aren’t thin there. If we use 0, 1, 2 or 3 DL, then the sacks and plays will be made by the LBs and DBs, where we have skill.
All we heard from U75 was how we were in dire need at DE.
I’m not saying that. I’m talking a premium edge guy, not just a DE. We are hunting for them.
Clowney was that guy.
The 2020 offseason FA and draft hunt for that edge guy will continue. 🙂
No catch
No soup for you
NUTs
Nice stat line for Robinson… hope his former teammate Hurns has that kinda game left in him ..
Yeah, I was glad we kept him.
I was actually surprised him over Ford.. he has had some good seasons,and can replace Parker’s size if he does his usual regular season disappearing act… or like Naples said, he gets a case of dandruff and can’t play lmao. Dunno why i still find that hilarious
I enjoyed a very good defensive game. No the offenses were not good but that’s because the defenses were. LOL
I’ll take a game like this against the Ravens with a chance to tie or win it with a possession. It creates drama. 🙂
For sure. I liked the score, because the guy I’m playing has Rodgers and Adams.
Piggy played Adams, Rodgers,Graham, and Mack he’s beating me 30-0 …. I MAY start Preston Williams 🤔😊
LOL, I played the guy with Allen Robinson, but I can deal with 10 points.
I Am starting Jerome Baker
I think the days of slow , confused starts are over … I expect to see a vast improvement in our opening 1/4 on Def for sure… need the OLine to gel quick.
They looked coordinated pretty well in the multiple.
Yes they did… it’s acorns not the sky 🙆🏻♂️
Nice to have football back 👍👍 , Bring on Sunday !!
I’m thinking Piggs would have preferred 30 points from Rodgers alone. First week you never know what you’re gonna get though
The NFL is like a box of chocolates?
Stale chocolates at best. Seems like teams aren’t ready to go early on. I do remember saying that before, that teams will start slow because of how they’re conducting themselves in the preseason. If your best players don’t play, sure they they’ll be healthy, but they also won’t be ready to play either.
Based on what I saw last night we might win the Super Bowl.
Every D line is going to look like the Bear’s line when they line up against Miami this year. NO SOUP (erbowl) FOR YOU!
Howie
Just saw that your comments got caught up pal, I just approved them. You have not been replaced! Hopefully you see this and come on back!
Good to see ya, thought you left us . . .
You replaced Howie!
hey, at least it’s good to know he’s all right.
defensive battle last night, trebisquit is not that great, see what you get with the 2nd pick of the draft.
It’s the cycle of a young QB, he’ll look good, then have a bad game, because the D game planned him and found something, now he has to adjust.
We saw RT go thru this with flying colors😉
If we thought last night’s game looked like preseason game 5, wait until we take the field with 13 guys added in the last week.
Have some patience and let it play out. About all we can hope for is to keep it close, then let the heat take over late.
not many of those 13 will see any action
I agree that most will not see much action, but Davenport and Jenkins will have huge roles, and any that play STs will too.
Jenkins
Davenport
Isadora – if active might play
Boehm
Moss
Trent Harris
Biegel – could see STs
Lacey
Crawford
Bademosi
Webster
Parker
Pepper – LS
Breaking it down, the new guys shouldn’t make us look like we’re starting camp over.
Looking at the depth chart this team doesn’t look bad and void of talent.
If our D looks like it did in preseason, and the OL doesn’t look like a train wreck, and Fitz is on his A game we’ll have a good chance.
We still need to hold up physically and not get pushes around, and contain Jackson.
A lot of unknowns.
Great job there DolphinsWire for putting out the new depth chart with 359lb John Jenkins starting at DE 🤔
I hope they do actually play Davenport at LT, that way the rest of the OL will be in the same position they’ve been in for a while.
I think Calhoun will have a short leash.
where’s the link?
