2 games with no preseason and adding the most players together and asking them to jell and wanting 2 straight wins. Check our schedule and the amount of playoff teams we play this year. I could make a huge list of topics on here that don’t fit the bill. I have been saying this for a while now and will say it again. You watch mid season this year ;) Then you really watch after next offseason with the resources and pics we have coming again. My guess is everyone complaining about anything they can find right now is pissed Tua didn’t start day one. What is going on right now I, and I am sure others, in fact new this was coming so means nothing to me/us right now.
 
It doesn’t mean nothing...and it’s cause for some disappointment. But the overwhelming negativity is, um...surprising? Disappointing? ******* exhausting?

I think that’s somewhere in the neighborhood.
 
I haven’t been here a long time, but you will find that there are guys who regularly post and guys that only flood the board to rage when we lose. The board was all rants about us losing last year, and then we started winning and it was all rants about us blowing the “tank”.

Exactly. Check the post counts on most of the people who want it all burned down again.

*suddenly becomes paranoid that Adam Gase has hired a bunch of Russian bots to invade the forum*
 
It is not the fact we are 0-2. It is the fact that the Phins spent decent money to help fix a defense that still can’t generate a pass rush and even though improved last week, has issues stopping the run. In addition was very suspect play by the secondary. Miami would need a 1999 Rams offense to outscore what their defense allows. With that said, what can Miami do fundamentally to fix this issue? Are Ogbah and Lawson going to wake up one day from their journeymen career and overpaid salaries and be sackmasters. When Clowney was there for $15m-$17m for one year, everyone scoffed. There was enough done on defense to pass up on a pass rush specialist. And with such a need for offensive firepower, Miami still drafted a corner in round 1, passing on pretty good running backs and wide receivers. So the sky is falling and this team, which won’t win much, has a chance to salvage this season and develop their rookie qb and get the Oline in synergy.

Clowney isn't, and has never been, a pass rush specialist. He's merely a "good" pass rusher who is also really good against the run. That said, it's pointless to talk about Clowney because he didn't want to come here. End of story.

Would adding Jadeveon Clowney have led them to the Super Bowl this year?

Also...just in case one can accurately judge this D after 2 games (and one can't) Ogbah is on a one-year deal, too. Lawson, just in case we accidentally signed the Antichrist, can be cut after 2021. It's not like this team went out and signed Ndamukong Suh long-term or something.

Are the Miami Dolphins the only team who didn't have preseason games? I keep seeing this "no preseason" thing. Our opponents didn't have preseason, and the Patriots had a brand new qb

Pop Quiz: Team A is playing most of the same players in the same systems as last year. Team B has 2 new coordinators and a lot of new faces. Which team is affected more by lack of practice time?

They are the only team that has 10 rooks, and a very high number of roster turnover.

If you can't see why that makes it a different situation, I question your abilities of deductive reasoning.

No but it doesn't help when we have some many new players such as FA's and the draft. I think that time was more crucial to the Dolphins then some other teams brother.

What’s really frustrating is when the “we suck” and “I told you so” clubs come out of the woodwork it bogs down the site to the point where the guys who post regularly can’t post. It’s always when we lose or are losing.
 
No matter how bad something is, you will always have people on here spewing nonsense to the contrary.

There are people on this board who until this very day give excuses for Ryan Tannehill, Josh Rosen, Bobby McCain, Raekwon McMillan, Michael Deiter.

There are people on here who wanted to keep Daniel Thomas, Dallas Thomas, Jason Allen, and wanted to get rid of Reshad Jones only to replace him with Bobby McCain and are happy with that.

Finheaven is the place where you are always wrong, even if you are right. And then when you were right, that means you were guessing and could not have possibly have known a thing. Josh Rosen comes to mind most recently, Adam Gase before that, and right now it is Chris Grier.
