Man I dont know when the last time one of our recievers caught like 9 to 10 passes for more than 100 yards. I think we definetly have the talent on our recieving core to do so, but we just dont. One thing I would like to see us do is line up four recievers more. When you have four reciever set it does a couple of things for you. First it spreads out there D and assures us that they will have more backs in there than linebackers, this means it can open up the run. Second thing it does is it allows the QB to identify the hot read or the mismatch on their D quick. So this also helps our O line. I think it should take about two to three seoconds for a QB to identify who will be single covered or in a mismatch. I think this is the best way to use all the talent we have as far s recievers go. We cant afford to have them sitting on the bench. Imagine chambers, booker, boston, and welker on the field. One of those is bound to get open. Of course the only bad thing is gus cant read a D for his life, so we would have to bench him, which is what I hope we do anyway!

ITs not Gus's fault nor the recivers fault, the O line doesn't give Gus time , like i said NExt year watch out For THE Fish there will be amazing!!
 
1 way is to have the QB get the ball within catchable range and another is dump passes and screens. I dont like the play calling I am seeing thus far. We have so much talent in the short game and are not utilizing it, it is dumbfounding!
 
Throw more to Welker. He's the Dolphins best receiver.
 
how about less 50 yard bombs and work the intermediate routes?

how about designing plays for the running backs that intended to gain yardage instead of just dumpoffs?
 
Just a side note - I wa sjust checking the league leaders for last week and Welker was on there as a receiver - 3 catches for 97 yards, boy I'd love to get him more involved. He could be like our Rod Smith
