Wow! Raiders dodged a bullet on that fumble
Yep … I am now a Chargers fan 🤷♂️😎
M – I feel differently about this. Think the Patriots cared after they beat the Bills when Mac Jones only had 3 pass attempts? Tua played fine, he did what he had to do.
We were up by 3 scores in the 3rd qtr
His only job at that point is to convert a couple of 3rd downs
And he did that

Tim, you are not looking at the bigger picture.
1. This is a very weak draft or I would agree with you. Many in the bottom half of the 1st round this coming draft would be second rounders in other drafts. If the 49er’s had lost our pick would have went up to #17 from #22 due to SOS. Five spots could be significant in this draft.
2. I said earlier that of the 14 teams in the playoffs, only 4 teams have an SOS of .500 or higher. SF is one of them. That puts them near the bottom of the pecking order as the weaker SOS gets the higher pick. Even if SF loses in the WC round our pick could still drop to #24. Now, if SF wins and moves on to the divisional round then loses, the highest our pick could be is #26. If they lose and the other three .500+ teams advance, our pick could fall to #28.
The more division winners with better records that get knocked off by WC teams, the better for us as long as SF loses.
It’s just common sense to root for a better pick.
You have access to players closer to the top of the draft.
You have more firepower and have to give up less to trade up for a special player.
You can get more by trading down because the pick is worth more.
It’s dumb we’re even arguing over the fact some of us are rooting for a better pick, wtf?
SOS is only for tie breakers, not sure if that’s what you’re eluding to
We would have been picking 15th without the Grier blunder
Tua is 14-7 in 2 years
13-8
I think it’s 14-7
Piggy corrected me
WOW!!!!!!! RIP
Kong, I don’t have anything else to say. I don’t think our future is based on where we pick in the 1st round in 2022. If it does, we’re not close to being where we want to be.
Again, you want to make it something it’s not. Nobody is saying our future is based on it. It’s just common sense to root for a better pick. I’m not saying it’s the be all end all.

It’s dumb we’re even arguing over the fact some of us are rooting for a better pick, wtf? If you don’t care, that’s fine and your prerogative, but don’t call me out for it because you don’t see value in it because you’re wrong, there is value in it.

Talking about how it will fuck us for months is a little different than the draft order based on mathematics. A lot of people want to harp on us fucking up with the Eagles trade that landed us Waddle. I’ll take it. This kid is a pro and will only get better. They felt he was special. He is!
What is it with hotel rooms in Florida where celebrities and athletes continue to die? Curious…
You didn’t have fentanyl in you coke in the 70’s!
Just baby powder! 😉
And baking soda!
Drug availability
I think you’ve nailed it, man.
+10000000000000
It’s the water ….
RIP
FWIW I will be happiest when we are picking 32nd
As long as it’s us getting it for us!!!!! 😉
You win lol
It was sort of a dumb cocky thing for Grier to swap picks with the 49ers
Those futures picks had equal value when they were on the table last draft
Nobody notices if you keep you own pick
But when you keep the 49ers picks and trade you pick, you set up that comparison
This kind of is the same mindset as tinkering with OL this off-season and parting was with Van Noy
Too cute
Agreed!
It’s a calculated bet!
That we lost!
I tend to agree with Tim that’s it’s not a huge difference maker
But Grier sets up the 2nd guessing by doing it to begin with
Pretty sure Phi was adamant about wanting our pick
So you just assume that’s what happened
Fwiw the police already announced no foul play or drugs found on Saget
So why did we wait until the blast week of the season to bench Jessie Davis?
Right
You guys still talk like we don’t have two 1st round picks in 2023. We really wanted Waddle. We didn’t deplete any of our future drafts. Just moved some stuff around.
All those things would have happened though if we would have traded the 49ers first instead of ours
We were the ones that chose to keep the 49ers pick thinking it would have more value. That was reported when the trade was made. Philadelphia would have take either.
Honestly Piggy, an additional reason I was rooting for the Niners to lose, other than the obvious wanting a better pick, was I wasted Grier to be proven right. The Niners pick would still have been lower than ours, but our records would have been the same.
wanting, not wasted, lol
It’s really just rolling the dice
He rolled the dice and came up short
But we were pretty much neck and neck with 49ers all season
Yeah, I don’t really care that he traded that pick instead of ours. It was a gamble, and I don’t see anything wrong with betting on yourself. It was an interesting point you made though, that the SAFE way would have been to trade the Niner pick because no one would have even talked about it.
No one is talking like that
You love introducing things that haven’t been mentioned except by you, lol.
Tim, all Cab is saying is that it is better to have a higher pick, and it was fun and interesting to keep an eye on it today. That is all, not deep evaluation or emotion, just something to cheer for…. Really think you are over analyzing it
I like having things to root for. I’m rooting for the Chargers tonight because it gives me two games I can actively root for in the playoffs (against the pets and against the Bills), instead of only one if the Raiders win.
Tim,
Nobody has said it will fuck us, and we won’t be talking about it for months. We’re talking about it now because it’s happening now, lol.
I’m not sure why you keep bringing up the pick we traded to the Eagles. Maybe you thought I was one who harped on us giving up that pick for Waddle, but I wasn’t. I was ok with it, he’s a stud so for me it was worth it.
Also, I know you were more busting balls than anything when you started this conversation, bro, and my original response was originally just kinda giving it back, but it just kept going, lol.
It’s all good, bro, and everyone else. We’re in good shape to upgrade our team in 2022. That’s all I’m saying. We didn’t give up the farm for anything. If we do that for that dude most of us don’t want, you might see a very different Tim. LOL
Cav, not Cab
LOL
Steve, yes that is what I am banking on, SOS as tie breakers. That is why we need SF to lose and teams with a worse record and teams with a lower SOS to advance to the divisional round.
Looks like we’d benefit from having all WC teams not in the NFC West advance
Correct, the only NFC WC team that can help us by losing is AZ.
Weather advisory here, wind chills -25 to -30 tonight and tomorrow morning. Maybe it is OK to be quarantined. Lol
Going on two weeks of this shit
Cold Arctic air continues to impact Manitoba.
Northwesterly winds of 20 to 30 km/h combined with overnight lows near -30 deg C will bring wind chill values to -40 to -45 across parts of Manitoba.
These extreme wind chill values will moderate Monday morning.
Of course you can out do me on the bitter cold, Lol!!
Wasn’t my goal to one up ya … just already sick of this shit
Lol, I know
I am just bitter because we have 6 inches of snow on the ground and sub zero temps now, but before Christmas? 60 degrees, melted snow, and brown grass. 😡
You pussies, you’ve got signs up all over town saying how tough you are with the weather…Natural Rules🤪
I love the Winter, snow, and cold. Feel free to come visit. We’ll walk to the bar in it. Only 1 block away😉
😃
Because they found signs of foul play or drug use doesn’t mean there wasn’t any, just nothing found yet
Tim, I said above that if this were not a such a weak draft, I would mostly agree with you. Some positions there is a big drop off after the top 2 or 3. WR there is a big drop off after the top 3-4. At #17, you might get one. At #22-24, maybe not.
We were never going to be 2-3 or top 5. It just looked like that early. We were better than that. 8-1 in our last 9 games. Pretty crazy eh?
Yeah, crazy-awesome.
When this raiders/chargers game ends, there is gonna be 9 teams in the afc that have between 8-10 wins
And we are smack in the middle of them
The team that knocked us out last week is the 1 seed
I really think this team can be a good team
Maybe more than anything they can use some consistency in the off-season
Last year our point differential was about tops in league, this year not so much
Think we can’t do anything, unless we can block for Tua
Funny how the 2 games last 2 years against the cheats at home we ran all over them
Consistently blocking for Tua
As much as I want a new OC!
I also want to leave it alone, to see if it can mature????
If you look at that stat and compare the first 8 games to the last 9 there is a huge difference
The tinkering in the off-season probably hurt us early
I think if there is one thing I don’t want to see this off-season is cutesy, it will give us cap room waivers
We have a lot of money to work with. Make it work without downgrading
Current picks are 22, 49, 100, 117, 120 (unless Pitt makes playoffs), 158, 201, 221
If we can hit on our top 3 picks again and another one in the second 3 picks (4 of our first 6), I will be happy.
Do we have two fourth rounders or something?
Comp pick I think?
The Dolphins got a 2022 first-round pick (along with a 2022 third-round selection and a 2023 first-rounder) from the 49ers to move from 3 to 12
I also want to see some consistency this offseason. It’s time to build on things not keep resetting at key positions (talking coaching). Obviously we will have some turnover on the roster and need to upgrade some positions like on the oline and at WR. Keep the regime in place, and for heaven’s sake don’t trade for Watson.
I was not on board with this at 1-7, but it is obvious that this team is close knit, and plays hard for their coach. I am in the mode now of wanting consistency also. Sign Ogbah, Gesicki, Hollins, Duke, upgrade the OL in FA, and go from there with the draft.
I am tired of the changes year after year, let’s try something different and let it ride into next year.
The last two months changed my opinion too. I was ready for wholesale changes at 1-7, lol. Hard not to feel that with the expectations a lot of us had, but I think he team proved it’s worth another year.
Nobody was onboard with 1-7. LOL
100% agree with Bookman
Also
The throwbacks looked so good today!
Don’t they always? I don’t care if Ross sells the team, I just want him to switch back the uniforms. That would be the best thing he could do right now as owner. (Except for keeping his hands off the personnel moves Lol)
Why wasn’t it ruled uncatchable? I looked that rule up, so I know it’s still on the books, but for some reason it’s almost never called.
You assume the games are on the level?
lol, not really, I guess
Bookman: we’ve been in this cold snap since just before XMas …warmed up overnight for first time Friday to 17 F and took a dive Saturday back into -20-30 .. between this and Covid crap I’m already done with winter .
We’re starting to warmup up a bit, was below freezing for low
I get it. Sucks to be tired of Winter already for you though, Lol
Only 3 more months to go 👍👍😡
Never seen that type of PI before, where PI is inside the hashmarks and the ball is about out of bounds
Rowe slightly brushed his elbow as the ball was yards away and not catchable. LOL
Piggy, we have two 4th round picks. Our pick at 117 and a pick from the Steelers currently at 120 depending what happens with the playoffs.
I can’t think of a single Dolphins fan I know that prefers the new uniforms. Is there anyone on this board that prefers them to the throwbacks? or is indifferent? (nothing wrong with it if ya do, lol)
Jumping DOLPHIN over compromised Shark any day
I like that. “compromised Shark” is a much more polite way to describe it than my phrase 🤣🤣
I don’t like the graphics of the old logo. What I really don’t like is the pastel colors we chose. The older uniforms look so much meaner. A little darker and more menacing. The darker orange, almost red stripes on the shoulders and the helmet are awesome. I wouldn’t mind a redo of the old jumping dolphin, with some crisper graphics.
Old uni’s = TOUGH
New uni’s = PRETTY
LOL
The first thing I notice every single time with the throwbacks, is the greener color and the darker orange. I love those older colors so much more.
Going into our game, the Pets had the #1 scoring defense in the league at 16.9 pts/g. Our offense scored 20. Add a run game to this offense and we looked pretty good against the best D in the league.
Yep, we handled them pretty easily.
We just missed on a couple of other plays too (the Waddle drop comes to mind).
I think Waddle might have scored on that if he didn’t drop it
Yep, BBM and I talked about it in game. He had a lot of room to split the deep defenders and the ball was in stride. I don’t think the closest defender had an angle; it was probably a long TD if he didn’t drop it.
Goodnight – Very satisfied after beating NE. I’d rather be resting guys this past week week and lose to NE but you can only take what you get.
Night Mike E. good article btw
Night, Mike!
Sweet dreams
That’s what you say to your woman or kids, what are you trying to say😛
Watching the highlights the 2 PIs against us were pathetic
Play before NE had illegal formation on our punt, we had a 1st down they marked short
Fake punt roughing was bs on NE
Judon was offsides twice they didn’t call
Tua looked awful, but somehow made enough plays to win
The 2022 NFL Draft will be the 87th annual meeting of National Football League (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible players. The draft is expected to be held in Paradise, Nevada, on April 28–30, 2022.
Expecting to see Cav and Doggy here end of April
Special guest Toba
Game ? Maybe.. draft likely not .. Vegas is on my been there done that list🤷♂️😊
I’ve never even considered going to the draft, but I bet I would have a blast. I might have to give that some thought.
Hmm…I’ve got a Corvette track training session on tap. Might have to do some schedule magic.
wtf?! why did the Chargers go for it?
You see things like this all the time. The league has changed so much.
Retarded
They deserve to lose on that call alone, lol.
Wow did not realize was so deep in their own territory
Most retarded play since the trick Colts tried to run on Cheats with only C and QB near the ball
All they get is an fg to mess up a tie
Tie is good to keep Steelers out, so we get a higher 4th
Also I’m done watching their pathetic O for 3 qtrs
Finally found a Flo Progressive commercial I liked
Where she talks insurance and puts baby to sleep
That fister keeps the hopes of a tie alive
Ha Ha
Fuck you NE! Have fun in Buffalo!!!
👍
Tie is still on the table!
Wow, NFL onside kick recovery is back up to 16% this year.
This game has been amazing
Wow
LOL, f^cking unreal. What a game!
LMAO! Steelers fans are thinking “are you kidding me?”
I can’t believe this game – one of the all-time drives if the Chargers pull this off.
Unreal
Another classic Chargers Raiders game, wow
Yet if it ends ina tie Pittsburg is in .. crazy
They are out, if that happens
Oh , my bad. Not that I are how do they get in ??
Care
Steelers just need one of them to win, no tie
Okay thanx
This is setting up beautifully for a tie. Get a long time consuming drive by the Chargers, ending in a FG, then one stop by the Chargers D. Come on, guys, you can do it, lol.
Intelligible downfield
Was that on Jackson?
Lol
Unbelievable
Holy crap
This game is insane
Ok defenses, let’s get a couple stops, lmao
Steelers fans must be crapping their pants
And that fact brings me much joy
My best friend is a Steelers fan- he is dying right now
This game is unreal
3 kneel downs each
So if it is a tie, there are 3 teams at 9-7-1. Chargers and Raiders from same division go, do the first tiebreaker is not between 2 teams in same division, must just be conference record or whatever
There’s 2 positions avaliable LAC gets the first one over div Raiders head to head
Then Raiders have it over Steelers, got it.
My bad
Chargers must win head to head over PIT for first spot
Then Raiders the same
omg, they are doing it
Looks like it right ?!
Steelers lost to both
why the TO chargers?!
Lol tie we Go
Raiders need to try to win, because they’d play KC
oh man
Why would you kick this?
Alrighty.. go Bengals
can’t believe the chargers called that TO
Wow, unreal.
Raiders says FU LAC
What a game
At least our coach isn’t the only one who calls stupid timeouts
What a wild finish this week was. Goodnight folks!
As bad as the offensive coaches have been this year, a lot of our lack of success has been the inexperience of Tua. In rewatching games this past year, I’ve noticed a lot of missed opportunities and poor decision making in key situations.
The bad playcalls by the OCs and the WTF moments are amplified when we aren’t successful. I see plenty of coaches around the league make really dumb calls in game. Sean Payton, Andy Reid, the list goes on and on. That being said, the coaches could definitely use some improvement as well, along with our position coaches on offense.
I wonder if well continue to run the RPO very much if we are able to upgrade the o-line. If that’s the case, and if he hasn’t been hired somewhere, I’d bring in Doug Pederson as an offensive consultant during the offseason.
I think he makes quick decisions, sometimes good, sometimes bad. I do think it’s mostly because he feels that he’s not going to have time, but if we do upgrade the line and he’s still doing that, we have a problem. I would really hate if they go out and spend big $$$ or trade for a veteran QB.
Yeah, I don’t want a replacement at QB. I want them to develop him properly. He went 8-4 while not playing close to his full potential.
I can’t figure out why Doggy can’t post. There are no pending comments. It must be a login issue with either wordpress or gravatar, or a combination of the two,
Also, just how completely awful were those announcers last night?
Holy SHIT! Flores out!!!!!
Flores fired
Grier not fired yet though
Holy. Fucking . Shit.
Going after Harbaugh
I don’t think I’m happy about this???????????????
And here comes Watson
Ross is taking “credit” for the firing
Wow. Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Watch Flores go to Houston.
And then Watson stays there, lol
Holy SHIT … back to square one AGAIN. We have become the “Oakland A’s” of the NFL … constantly rebuilding (?)
So Grier, the last hold over, outside of Ross, from all of these non-playoff years, and he survives, so far?
Fuck, this looks to be a stupid move right now.
This certainly changes the direction of all of our offseason discussions.
If Ross is taking ‘credit’ … he is showing the league that he has the patience of an adhd middle schooler. It takes time to transform the culture of a program that has been predominantly inept for 2 decades.
If they are going with Harbaugh, they have to get in their sham Rooney rule interview.
This is another example of why Ross is the fucking owner in all of football
worst
Thank you Hulk too upset to post grammar good
Mouth agape…stunned…ag-ape…ape stunned…
