Sure-handed receivers dropping easy passes (Garcon & Colston), safeties missing tackles (Bethea & Harper).....

I think it's pretty clear now that Ginn and Wilson need a change of scenery. Or we should play our home games on the practice field. J/K :crazy:

Personally I miss the old orange Bowl. it was loud the crowd was a factor in a lot of big games. And we always played pretty good there.

I haven't watched a whole lot of Colts football but I wouldn't stretch it by saying he (Garcon) is a sure-handed receiver. He seems to be up and coming, and Manning has a lot to do with that, but I do get your point and it definitely crept through my mind when there were some dropped passes lol.

Garcon would be the best player on the Dolphins roster. (IMO) Minus Jake Long
 
Superbowl factor made Garcon and Colston drop those passes. Also it happens atleast once a game. They both made up for it. We just suck and we need to improve. Improve the team and stadium I agree.

i wouldnt say the best player on our team but he would be one of the best on our team he would easly be our best WR but Ronnie, and Ricky are both better

Dead serious, after he was finally noticed by the Colts this year, he became a legit WR in this league quickly as he showed with a good playoffs. Outside of Jake Long and maybe Randy Starks, Ronnie Brown, i dont see anyone on our team better then Garcon, its the sad but honest truth. And i know what your gonna say, what about Carpenter, Crowder, JT, Yeremiah Bell, its just my opinion, you dont have to like it, but its my opinion.

I respect your opinion dude. I am not hating. But I just think your buying into the hype a bit too much. If you said the best player as far as receiver it would be difficult for me to argue with you. But once Gonzalez went down in that first game, Pierre Garcon had every chance to step up, all season.

When you have Manning throwing to you, it would be pretty easy to step it up, but the kid only had 2 games over 100 yards. Other then that his 3rd best game was 71 yds. This is of course minus the one game against the Jets. He had 4 regular season TDs. IMO if your on that team as a receiver behind Reggie Wayne, he should be getting a lot of looks and some solid stats. 47 rec. 765 yds. in a full season is great for a fins WR but those stats wouldn't make him the best player next to Jake long.

I could list our players but I'm not going to.

Sure Manning will help his development out alot, but you cant blame Garcon for the Colts drafting him, i guarentee Garcon gets 1,000 yards next year, you forgot to say that he only played in 14 games this year and started 13 of them. Only other players better are Starks and R.Brown(which is questionable the ways hes always hurt). Bell is a one dimensional safety so hes not better, Henne could be better at QB then Garcon is at WR, but that wasnt the case this year, Vernon Carey could get an edge, Polites a FB so no. Im sorry but i dont wear the blinders like most do on here.

I think it isn't realistic to compare players at different positions and that is why I don't really want to waste my time doing so.

Did you see Garcon step up like Ricky did against Carolina and score 3 TD's, no. Did you ever see Garcon put his team on his shoulders to make a huge impact in a game during the regular season like Henne late in the game? I didn't think so. He is a middle of the line receiver on a pass happy offense with arguably one of the best QB's of all time. No it's not his fault he was drafted by the Colts, but you would think that with all the weapons around him, if he was that great of a player he would shine, not just be around average.

His potential? He has lot's of potential. So does Vontae Davis, Sean Smith, Brian Hartline, Chad Henne and so on...

You might not be wearing blinders but you certainly are drinking ESPN's coolaid when your watching sportscenter highlights of the AFC Championship and thinking Garcon is better then everyone on the Dolphins minus Jake Long, ya know IMO.

Cheers
 
And I don't doubt Garcon won't get 1,000 yards or will be an impact player one day but your stretching it
