It was a good first look at the Dolphins. Feely did not look sharp. Getting injured right away doesn’t help much. The starting O line did not get it done either. I think the second O line looked the best. Gus had betters looks, and a better pocket. Feely didn’t step up in the pocket, but didn’t have much of a pocket to step into. Gilmore was the worst player out there. He dropped numerous passes thrown right in his hands.



Rosenfels and Berlin looked as good as anybody. If Berlin had not thrown that late int I would have said that he had the best outing of the four. Holmes, Rader, and Welker looked good. Each had at least at least one nice catch and dew of any drops. I think it was Jamar Martin at full back blocking for Sammy Morris, but he made some great blocks. I was going to say that Sammy had the best night at RB, but I had to say that first. Lamar didn’t look impressive; Minor had a few decent runs. I think they held Ricky back on purpose.



The defense didn’t seem to get together until the end of the second quarter. Then fell apart halfway through the forth quarter. After watching the game I’m more worried about the secondary, then I am the D line. It’s still early and don’t want to judge to early but I’m pretty sure that I’m going to miss Surtain. Overall I think that the offence out played the defense. I know it sounds funny talking about the dolphins, everyone is still adjusting to the new scheme.



:topic: One last note. Al Michaels is an ***. He never has anything nice or complimentary to say about the dolphins. I hate watching any Dolphins game that he is announcing. The guy has some problem with the Dolphins and it shows during the broadcast. If he never announced another Phins game again, it would be a great day for Phins fans everywhere ***.:fire:

Wow I disagree wholeheartedly. Personally I think you're grasping at straws there, he's always called a fair game and has never said anything negative about the Phins that they didn't deserve. He's one of the best in the business (if not THE best)
 
Travis Minor ran the ball harder than any back we had on the field tonight. Our secondary obviously needs some work, they got burnt bad tonight. I would have to say that I was impressed with Travis Daniels, he plays very physical for a CB. And I think we all can say how great it was to see David Boston back in action. That 1st screen pass he caught, he just exploded down the sideline after the catch.
 
Gilmore was the worst out there? Do you mean Thompson or Lee?
 
He did not say anything negative, but didn't say anything positive either
Lee sucked, Holmes was the better tight end

Why should he? He's not there to kiss @ss, he's there to call a game. You want to hear horrid play calling, tune in to ESPN's Sunday crew.
 
Geez, this is national TV, not the Dolphins radio network. How do you think Bears fans would feel if Michaels spent the whole night saying how great the Dolphins were?
 
I have to add my name to the list of folks who don't get the Michaels hate. I do have a real issue with the other guy in the booth, though. He needs to join his buddy in retirement.

AMEN- I am so looking forward to when Madden retires. I have no idea why a lot of people like him, but everytime I hear his voice, I cringe. EWWWW
 
Gilmore worst?

I now disregard your post.
 
I think he meant DT who dropped that 20 yard rope from Feeley on 3rd down.

If Feeley had 3 seconds to throw and WRs who could catch, he'd be a lot better off.

Berlin looked hot. I hope he keeps improving and knocks Sage off.

The OL isn't as good as I hoped they'd be so far. Pass blocking was ok, but run blocking was none existent. I know it's early, but I was hoping for a glimmer.
