Yeah, I did that. I watched the game AND stats. What did you do?
Maybe you need glasses. Not going to argue with you. Happen to catch where a pass hit our center's helmet as he was pushed back 8 yards?
Ain't no Hero of mine.
Yeah a hero might shout out FinHeaven every now and then.
CK Opinion Head has some good takes, but overrated by many.
The Dolphins offensive struggles this year were overwhelmingly in the second half of games. It’s actually staggering how poorly the offense produced in the second half of all their losses except for Tennessee.
This should be a clear sign to everyone that it is in large part due to McDaniel not adjusting to the opponent’s Defensive adjustments coming out of halftime.
A more parsimonious explanation is that teams are making effective adjustments at halftime and we are failing to counter.
Thanks for that brain-dead macho bullshit, not nearly enough of that around here.

Then why wasn't the same first-half to second-half discrepancy observed earlier in the season as well?
Been on this since last offseason, when I wanted Miami to draft Kraft and Washington at TE.
When I saw them adding more small players instead (Achane and Berrios), I was like, Well, they must have a plan. Let's see how it goes.
It went fine for a while, but vs good teams, who were able to put a lid on the offense and get physical with Hill and Waddle, while setting the edge vs the run, Miami had no counter.
Cold weather only exacerbates the issue.
Miami desperately needs to add tough/physical players who win through you, rather than around you. If they had that balance, defenses would actually be conflicted. While the team building falls some on McDaniel, it's hard for me to fault his playcalling too much, because there's only so much you can do with a finesse-only team. It was very clever of him to build a running game that worked as well as it did.
To play vs the big boys, you need big boys.

This speaks volumes
Miamis peak and best game happened to be the only game their actual starting oline played. Pressures and sacks sky rocket when Connor Williams did not play whether that’s because Williams is that good or Eichenburg is that bad isn’t for me to answer but make of it what you will.

Wasnt it mcdaniel himself who told grier and scouting department to forego olineman and key on skill guys? Why put yourself in this situation in the first place.
