Big leads on so many teams, and they just disappear. Best teams in the league, worst teams, don't matter. What is going on with this mess?
 
also have to blame the offense for playing too conservative when the dolphins are leading.
 
Scheme no adjustments at halftime, we do the same thing in the second half as we did in the first. The the DC is seen on the sideline with a perplexed look on his face because the opposing offense has made adjustments. That and we seem to create 1 or 2 mental break downs a game that result in big plays.
 
i'm 28 years old, and i would say my dolphins fanhood really took off when i was around 7 years old, and i can honestly say that this has been the norm for my 20 or so year run as a fan. im getting used to it.
 
if it's true that RAC has been hangin with BP almost daily lately, then Pasqualoni may be excused at season's end...and if it ain't RAC, then T-Bowles could get upped.
 
What I see is that we start to go almost entirely to 4-man fronts when we start to collapse. When we do, we no longer get pressure on the QB...or he can just escape the pocket. We basically stop the run in the first half and then go to nickel in the second half. The problem is we do not have the personnel to just let any QB sit back there against a 4-man rush. Also, we seem to just quit blitzing. We did some early in the second half and had success. But when we start to collapse, we go into a "prevent" mode which is just sick to watch...

Click to expand...

Let's see. One dimensional linebackers, 2 rookie corners and 1 free safety in Wilson that really is a SS. Oh and defenders who can flush the qb but then take constant HORRIBLE angles and run themselves out of the play.

There you go.
 
yeah and we scored a big 6 points on offense in the 2nd half...
 
Some good points, really need to make better second half adjustments.
 
We have the absolute worst coordinators in the entire NFL. Tampa's coaching staff outclassed us today. I mean, seriously . . .
 
it all starts at the top,but on the defensive side of the ball,it starts with Pasqualoni,and the fact that he sux *** as a DC...i can't wait for him to be fired...
 
Work in progress. I know some hate to hear that...but thats the way it is.

Its probably a combo of not getting consistent pass rush, rookie corners and aging players at key positions.
