Look, we all see that this team is down on talent, it doesn’t take long to realize that watching this team play week after week. On the other hand there are the little things that teams do that keeps them in games like doing your assignment correctly and if you’ve been watching, you can see we are improving in that area each and every week. Why the 3rd quarter has become a black hole for us I’m not quite sure, but there is no question the guys who are on the field are playing hard, and playing to win. Yes, Jacoby Brisset didn’t suit up yesterday, and yes, that hurt Indy. Close to half our roster (probably more) wouldn’t be starting for the Indianapolis Colts. TY Hilton was also out for Indy and that hurt too. Preston Williams, our leading WR is out for the rest of the season. I also understand our roster holes are self inflicted, but the guys that aren’t here now weren’t part of our team, including the mutinous Minkah Fitzpatrick. I know he’s playing well in Pittsburgh but any guy who asks off our team is dead to me, and I truly hope he regrets going to the Steelers at some point, and I think he will.
You have to give Ryan Fitzpatrick credit. That guy just loves playing football and will do anything to win, sacrificing his body a few times a game. His stats aren’t going to pop off the page, but he’s keeping this team in games with his escapability and his veteran leadership. Fitzpatrick finished 21-33 for 169 yards with 0 TD’s and 1 INT. It was his rushing TD however, that was the only TD scored that day by either teams. The Dolphins defense held the Colts to 4 Adam Vinatieri FG’s. The Dolphins limited the Colts 3 headed rushing attack of Mack, Heims and Wilkins to 109 yards on 29 carries. They also held WR Zach Pascal to just 2 receptions for 26 yards. Pascal had 5 catches for 76 yards and a TD against the Minkah’s last week. I still don’t know all the guys in our secondary, Nik Needham, Eric Rowe, Ryan Lewis, Steven Parker, Chris Lammons, Jomal Wiltz etc. Ken Webster was out this week but it’s amazing that Flores is doing this the Patriots way, guys are just doing their assignments. Much credit must go to HC Brian Flores.
Devante Parker may finally put a 1000 yard season under his belt. Unbelievable, but his his best season resulted in only 744 yards in 2016. He’s at 469 yards after 9, so he will have to finish the 2nd half of the season strong, but the fact that it’s even possible is good news for him and Dolphins fans. Next season with Parker and Preston Williams back healthy there is no urgency to select a WR early in the draft. That’s important because we have great needs on both lines and we should be hitting on those early and often.
We were in a few games earlier this season and we let it slip away. Now, 2 weeks in a row we’re doing the things we have to do to win. One can make light that we beat the NY Jets and that we beat the 5-3 Colts w/o that their starting QB Jacoby Brisset but it doesn’t mean anything. You win with what you got, and winning with what we got is very impressive against anyone. Simple as that!
GO DOLPHINS!!!

Finsmob Unleashed 
Hope they start Laird next week , see what he can do
Wow my third page turn in a month
I’m tired of watching slow ass Ballage. He sucks, but at least he also doesn’t break any tackles or make people miss.
I’d like to see more of Laird down the stretch of the season.
I’m tired of seeing Ballage as well. He’s the opposite of explosive and for a big guy he doesn’t run with any power. Let’s see more of Gaskin and Laird. Ballage just can’t be part of the future here, he’s got nuthin.
I agree we should see more Laird and Gaskins and less Ballage. Ballage has only produced on short and goal. Other than that he just gives up a down for us every time he touches the ball. I don’t know how many times I heard today “ Ballage for minus two yards “ 🐕
Agreed , we have 2 more weeks with walton suspension.. we have seen the Ballage experience, NEXT !!!
How many days are in a week in Canada ? Asking for a friend.🤓
9 with the current exchange rate
Maybe I can be cheered up with a Patriot loss?
I dunno Eagles kicked a field goal …
Bombers down 1-0 in western Final.. winner to Grey cup
Laird is quietly having a great game. I would play him a lot more.
👍🥃🥃
Appears to have really good hands as well
Naples – Is he still playing on your TV? The game ended on mine about a half hour ago. 😛
Should place my bets in his time zone 😊
Laird looks a bit thin, but you never know, a bunch of guys excelling in the NFL aren’t really big at RB.
Yeah he does but he plays bigger.
Despite what Travis Wingfield says, there are 10 teams with 3 wins or less. Still crowded at the bottom. Just going to keep rooting against the Steelers and Texans. Come on Cards! LOL
He looks thicker than CMC ,…
Bengals go up 6-0 on Raiders
Cards up 16-0 on 9ers
Bombers 10-1 over Riders
Go Bombers!!!
How do you just get one point?
Punt out of the end zone. Rouge 😊
Fields would have been the CFL MVP. 🙂
That should be an Eagles TD
Good job Refs 👍👍
Patriots loosing is such good therapy! 🙂
Yep always softens the blow on our own loss 🤡
Raiders tie it up
The ref’s finally let Brady have a 4th down! SMH
Raiders doing what they want offensively
9ers up 17-16 now
Your just biased for the nookie !! 😎👍
Lol
Goal line stand by bombers 20-13 with 2 mins left
1:15,left punting to Marcus Thigpen
Auden Tate bent in half been down 10 mins getting stretchered off field
O my ,,, dropped INT caught at 5 yd line 20 sec left
3rd and goal 4 secs left
Lmao … Qb hit the goalpost with his pass… Bombers to Grey Cup
Go Bombers
Dilly dilly
Hou 7 Bal 41
Pit 7 Clev 21
Hoorah!
Bengals lost
Doesn’t mean much right now. Who is the lock #1 pick?
A QB
Who?
Young!
Herbert or Burrow
Let’s go Philly !!!
They took the Gherkin instead of giving the Dilly Dilly! 😉
Lol.
Ken, I don’t think we have to find our future/franchise/savior QB in 2020. It’s set up to draft a QB no doubt, but it doesn’t mean at the top of the draft will be the answer. Look at Lamar Jackson, he was drafted #32 last year.
The odds go down the further you get away from the top of the draft
Do they?
Yes. There are exceptions but statistically the odds go down
Wyo, I don’t think Young is the lock #1 either. Not yet anyway.
It should be Thomas, Young, or your QB pick
Right… nothing clear yet. Don’t remind me of 2008 again! LOL
Didn’t get to see the game. Didn’t miss much I guess.

____________________________________________________________
i disagree with that, you can look at prior drafts and most of the great QBs were not taken early and most of the bust’s were, look at Trubisky! he was taken before Mahomes and Watson, i wonder if the bears would trade him straight up for either of those guys?

Who?

Young!
______________________________
Who? Dion Jordan?????
He had more sacks yesterday than the Fins!
So there is that?
i just hope if we use our early pick on young that he measures up to it unlike Jordan, i think that pick is more valuable than any one player in this draft.
if it were me i would consider trading back if the offer was good enough, taking a top 5 player in the draft is not as good as getting two 1st round picks and a 2nd, those 3 players may do a whole lot more for your team than a bet on that guy in the top 5, chances are greater with 3 vs 1.
i don’t think miami’s woes are at qb, i think the main problem with this team is the run game or the lack thereof, as a coach and a gm you have to get the right people in place to have a decent running game. Ballage had 9 yards on 9 carries. he’s a very tall back, easy to get your hands on, he wasn’t making the cuts to get the tough yards, another drake? still i’ll give him the benefit of doubt but walton seems to be our best RB.
so if you give a qb a running game you also make his job a whole lot easier
It doesn’t matter who you site, someone in that same spot shit the bed!
I do like to play with the draft to see if I can maximize talent with needs. It’s problem solving to me!
But I don’t consider myself an expert by any means!
I’ll let the ones that are going to be fired for screwing it up make the final! (As if we had a choice) 😉
Yea, the mock drafts should be for fun. The moment you make the draft life and death, is the moment you set yourself up for major disappointment. It’s OK to be disappointed if one of your favorites isn’t drafted, but it shouldn’t ruin your life. I just enjoy the possibilities leading up to the draft. That’s what fun for me.
The moment you decide you know best who we should pick enough to make the mock draft serious you are also a bit conceited. Have fun with the mocks, use the for what they are, “what ifs”, and just roll with the actual one however if falls out.
I really can’t complain too much in the last 2 drafts because Miami actually drafted 2 of my favorites in Wilkins and Fitzpatrick.
Closer we get to the final draft order the more im kinda wanting Thomas no matter the order. I might would trade down a couple of spots if i had the overall number 1 (which doesnt look likely any longer) and take Thomas but id also be ok with us taking him overall number 1. That guy is an absolute beast at LT. Id also like for us to get Kindley and others off that UGA OL. its really good. Fromm had all kind of time to pass and te run game was pretty open as well and Auburn has two of the best interior DT’s in college football. They also have solid, probably top 10 DE’s. Fromm almost never felt any pressure.

You were sad about getting an all pro rookie LT?
Or
Were you sad he got injured and couldn’t play at the same level?
I always see that as 2 different things?
I was joking about the options in that draft – Jake Long, Matt Ryan and an edge from OSU in Vernon Gholston. This year Thomas, Young and a QB.

You got two children of former NFL’ers in your list. Its the Legacy draft!
Chargers promoted practice squad OT Spencer Drango to their active roster.
——————————————————
I liked this guy for us in his draft year, mostly because the name though lol. He was a mid to late round prospect if i remember correctly.
He was supposed to move to OG.
Slow feet?
My memory is not much better?
There was no doubt the OL was horrible yesterday. Actually surprised me how not horrible they were in the two wins. Maybe depends on who you play…..
So no Monday Morning rants today to scroll through
Wonder what changed?
🤔
Rants?
Oh you mean the unhinged portion of the blog!
It’s been quiet until you showed up! 😉
I’m about to go pigwild!
World peace?
Ovaltine?
Dissolution of all financial and governmental institutions and voluntary surrender of all worldly possessions? We’re all just going to walk the earth, going from town to town, meet people, get in adventures and shit?
I’m going with ovaltine
LOL, never underestimate the power of Ovaltine.
It turns out that we do indeed Need Ham! 😉
I always knew we did…
He’s been impressive, especially when considering where he was at the start of the season.
And biscuits, and gravy!
You can’t say that without hitting my heart. Sausage Gravy, Patty Sausage , Eggs over easy and Biscuits twice as thick as hockey pucks all cut up in a bowl in what my “Ma” (means grandmother) called “A Mess” is what I eat night before they put me in the chair.
That’ll definitely make a “mess” when thy flick the switch! 😉
