Shut up for a minute and realize one thing.

If Feeley was truly hands down better with what we have invested in him then he would have been starting.

Fiedler played one of the worst halfs of football he has played since being a Dolphin, but a Coach that placed their trust in him before the game should have atleast let him come out and give it another shot in the 3rd quarter.

Only down 7-0. That is hardly panic time. Last year against the Titans we were down 21-0 at half and Griese remained in the game after INTS and Fumbles. Sage didn't get a shot.

I have always supported Wanny, but benching Fiedler was the worst thing the team could have had.

This team has no consistency. Signing a RB the week of the opener. Signing a DT the week of the opener. KR/PR signed week of the opener. Backup FB signed week of the opener.

This team truly is the laughing stock of the league but I still LOVE THEM
 
I disagree with you alot,Fiedler didnt need another shot cause the 1st half was his shot and he did horrible with it. he look like a High school Senior coming in and playing in this game.
 
Yup.
Feel free to reply in my thread dolfan.
Its me against the world in there.
You know there's no reasoning with fiedler bashers.
They'll just quote you and call you stupid.
:lol:
 
"We have two QB's who can win" Wannstedt not even a week ago.

What do we really have here?

An offensive line that really needs to gel. A team in desperate need of dicipline. We NEED the same guys on offense to play for the next four weeks. If things don't stabalize and improve, then start making some moves.

Feeley needs to be the QB, because at this point in his career, he has surpassed Jay Fiedler, and if given some time to get in sync, this kid good be great.

Jay Fiedler had his day. It's time for some new blood plain an simple.

Oh and I completely disagree, Wannstedt made the right move, and fact is he should of made that move last week.
 
Fiedler did start the second half......On the bench where he belongs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Do these people that keep backing Fiedler watch the same game I do? Somebody check what is in their Kool-Aid!
 
I actually would like to see Feeley be our starter.
STILL...I don't agree with pulling Fiedler because you're down only 7 and hitting the panic button. And your team can see this. If Fiedler comes out in the 2nd half and does nothing, then we go with Feeley next week. But now what? We pulled Fiedler and lost all the same with Feely having a pick brought back for a score.
I know everything is 20/20 in hindsight, but judging by the second half output, the change didn't do much anyway.
 
We were never in the game with Feidler. The one good drive he killed it by throwing the pick in the end zone. That basically deflated what momentum we had. He should have started the 3rd, I agree, but on a very, very short leash.

I'm sorry but Ears didn't do anything to justify starting 2nd qt. And I said it earlier this reminds me of when Danny replaced Woodley. Yeah Marino came in for Woodley and we still lost and the next game too if I remember right but the offense looked so much better with him in there.

I think and hope Feeley turns out the same way. Because I don't want Wanny ghoing back to Ears and the same old pathetic offense.

Our coach is an idiot. Your point isn't valid.

That is like supporting Michael Jordan's high school coach who cut him from the team.

Down 7.........and would have been down by 21 if he had stayed in. HE GOT WORSE AS THE GAME WENT ON! It wasn't like it was a bad start and he started picking up the pace. He started off ok, then got worse, and worse, and even worse. What good would have keeping him in done?

AJ comes in and hit what, 4-4 off the bat. :shakeno: :shakeno: Come on people, get over Fiedler. He sucks!
 
Jay's tenure is over, he has no upside potential. Let the AJ era begin
 
Man I got my Tivo in today, and I watched the game with my replays, and honestly, we were lucky that we were only down 7 at the half. Credit our D boys, they held the mvp to one touchdown, they had trouble with the run, but then Timbo was obviously missed.

As for Feely, either they only had a few plays he was comfortable with or Dave told Chris to be bland, either way, I only saw ONE< ONe play the Feely did bad with and that was the pass that led to the TD. He never should have thrown that one, but again this is his first start in what 2 years?
