I'm so baffled why the Dolphins can't seem to figure a way to use Cameron better. Let's be honest, yeah Brady is great but without Gronk that team is entirely different and not much better then what Miami is. I'm not saying Cameron is Gronk but shouldn't they at least try to use a Patriots style gameplan every now and then? I haven't seen any reasons to figure Cameron can't handle it, I think he has shown very well. The other thing is why does Sims get trusted with moments like the 1st in goal Sunday? We have Cameron, who you bought in for these type of plays, and they draw one up for Sims who might be the worst pass catcher out of the 5-6 we would have on the field? Again, the Patriots win because they keep is simple and play to their strengths. Am I wrong or are our coaches and front office just not that bright?

Hugely disappointed in Campbell. "Rah Rah" guys generally are know to get the guys up for the big game and flop on the others. If Campbell can't get this team up for the Patriots or the Bills he shouldn't be Head Coach. And how about all the hype and BS from the team and players. We Dolphin fans don't even get to get back on our feet before the Dolphins pull the rug out from under us.

As for Tannehill, I'm not so sure in 45+ years of watching the Dolphins I have been so frustrated with a player, the way a player is treated by media and fans and the way a player is used by the team. Tannehill is a starter in the NFL and has a very high potential under the right circumstances. But it is fair to say we expect him to add 1-2 big plays in these type (the Bills) of games. To suggest we shi*t can him is ridicules and dribble from those who either weren't around the last 20 years while we searched for a QB or are just to stupid to realize they just don't grow on trees. I think we need to look to the coaching staff and ask why have they failed in using him? I mean why is it we see a older, more fragile Drew Brees or All everything player like Tom Brady perform QB sneaks all the frigging time, but when we need a yard we can't trust out ultra athletic QB behind our All Pro center to get it? Am I wrong?
 
Cameron's usage is just a small piece. There are other usage issues too, and I don't have the energy to talk about it. But the bubble screen to Landry is old now.
We are getting blown out in our losses. It tells me we lack everything, discipline, coaching and talent. Whoever hired the coaches and players need to be fired. Hickey had a great plan going, it was slow growth, and Tannenbaum came in and blew a crapload of money. It led me to believe Ross wanted to win now
 
We are too busy doing stupid dumb trick plays like throwing the ball to our crap QB/WR
 
why can't we all agree and conclude that Miami is in a funk because we don't have a proper decision maker in charge?
I don't know about you guys, but nothing will change between now and end of year. It's the same lack of talent playing every week. Tannehill won't get better. The run D won't improve with physical teams. Those LB's still suck and the guards are average. Oh and Fox will eventually get beat and beat and beat.

If a talent evaluator came in, his question would be how many good players do I have vs bad? And what are those positions? What's my cap situation? Where do I put resources in and where do I just stay young? In the end the formula will dictate if it's rebuilding
 
I gave up on that game after the safety in the beginning of the 1st quarter.

you know you bring up a couple good points with this simple post. The fragile psyche of the team and the fact that a safety will lead to an even bigger lead and if that happens, we don't have the personnel to overcome
 
Short pass all day. Everybody know dolphins playbook. Laundry
 
Lazor doesn't believe in attacking the middle of the field, which is where Cameron would be most effective. The play calling in general has been terrible this year.
 
I made a post about it yesterday. Tannehill is an enigma to me now. The kid can run all these timing trickery plays that honestly are not easy to perform and he does pretty flawlessly but he can't drop back and throw the football consistently. I am not going to blame Tannehill completely because he is playing behind a subpar line and it definitely has stunted his growth as a qb. However he misses open receivers in terms of read recognition.
 
Sims injury made us one dimensional at tight end and put a damper on Cameron. Also Cameron's hamstring hasn't helped either.
 
he is always hurt and we knew that going in.
Maybe Ebron will be avail in offseason
 
Our offensive scheme is the problem. We did our usual dink and dunk screen game and had some success, so Lazor stayed with it. He is lazy IMHO.
Later in the game when we feel behind by 3 scores, he started calling deeper plays which we connected on. We have the players. RT delivered the ball.
It is the Lazor scheme and coordinator making it easy for the opponents defensive coordinator.
Our blocking scheme and game plan should be dumped in favor of a run first scheme that sets up the deep ball.

I knew it at that moment, too. This team WILLS itself to lose. No one beats Miami, like Miami. Drops, burns, missed tackles, dumb plays, fumbles- these are fundamentals that they constantly fail. Even when we had big leads against the Texans and Titans, am I the only one who expected the Dolphins to somehow blow it? I can't be the only one. When will this team prove me wrong!!!!????
 
We NEED to fire Lazor. I wish Campbell would man up and do the right thing. All of our weapons will be misused while he's running the offense. Shotgun at the goal line. SMH.
