Hard Knocks Poll

[fishfanmiami]

What is the most interesting storyline that you think Hard Knocks will cover?

1) Chad and the young receivers.

2) The new coaching staff ( Philbin and Sherman )

3) Local kids from the U ( Miller and Vernon )

4) The Dolphins tradition ( 40 th year anniversary of 1972 , Shula , Marino )

5) Les Brown ( basketball player turned accountant turned TE )

6) Other ... Like the QB competition ( Tannehill , Garrard and Moore)

Explain your pick.

I pick 2) Philbin is the key and I'd like to know more about him. The new line coach Turner was a marine. Sherman has seen everything in football. Should be fun to get to know them.

I said "other." I think the qb battle will be the most interseting story line.
However, of the others I think watching the coaches interaction will also be interesting.
Went out and renewed HBO just to watch it.

I'm also interested in celebrating the 40th anniversary of the ONLY undefeated team EVER.
This is still the pinnacle all teams strive for and only one has ever done it.
Should be some great old footage of the team and Shula.

Of the items listed, I say CJ. But how did the QB battle nit make it? Lol

 

[enigmatics]

First and foremost Philbin. Considering what he went through last year with the death of son.

After that it's definitely the QB's. There's not a more interesting group in my opinion.

You've right. That should have been up there and i forgot it hence "other"

Lately i've been hearing people ( Rich Gannon and Congemi) say Tannehill still has a chance to start so this one might end up the most interesting in the end.

I have my on the "u boys", Because I like college football better and I like to keep tabs in the canes. As far as the most popular choice, it will be the qb battle that will be most interesting. Fans won't care how philbin and Sherman are doing

Other than the media hype my guess is most will be pissed off and feel like they have been left cheated.
Until the next week when dog chases it's tail.
I don't watch much reality TV but I'll be around to check out the bitching.......

I miss read it. I thought it was which story will be the biggest and I said Ocho..

anyway. The biggest story for us will be the first QB competition in 40 years. I was not thinking that the Dolphins would go out and get another QB to compete and I expected Matt Moore to start. The signing og Garrard changed everything. Moore is a game baller and a poor practice player.

Garrad is coming close to playing for his NFL life here. We will not pay him at the start of the season unless he is the starting QB. He has to be the winner by the end of training camp or he will be released with nothing.

We have learned in the last uhhh decade or so how important QB play is. We have 3 possible starting QBs, one which will be named our starter during later preseason and will put his stamp on our new offense.

I think the biggest story is the coaching staff ... we've been adrift since firing Shula.

We need a Coach who can run the show & make a difference.

Next, I'm watching the "Alleged" good draft ... we're short on talent & haven't had a good draft in forever ... need some talent to get out of the hole. QB would be a lightening bolt!!

Grandpa Chad, basketball TEs, local kids, etc. .... No football there!! only drama, mama!!

That's a differant take on it. Maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised.

i never watch the show before but with a new coach , offense and defense I am more than curious about whats going on and I will not miss one minute. Just got the preseason games on NFL also so I'm set.

Well put and still my first choice. Nothing bigger going on.

QB's maybe next.

I listened to Rich Gannon and Congemi , both of whom were QB's and had seen Tannehill up close at practice , say he could be ready to start sooner rather than later. Possible opening day.

And the plot thickins ......... :d-day:
