I hope this doesnt sound like a negative post but i have something to say! Doesn't it seem that nobody on the Dolphins dives for balls. I mean i always see the pats players laying out for balls. For example bruschi on that pass by gus. i never have seen zach dive. i love zach but i have never seen him dive. also, does anyone else think that howard could have picked the ball of if he dived. the only player on the fins who dives is chambers. i always get mad when a dive would cause a pick but they just let the ball hit the ground. what do you guys think, or am i just missing it?
 
I think Zach dives on every other play. Usually it is to cremate a running back. I think there are 45,000 problems with this team, and LB's diving for passes ranks at about 44,999.

Now that sounds negative!
 
i never see a play like bruschi's, there seems no need to dive for the cbs and i didnt see shulters dive at all.
 
I thought this thread was going to be about "Dive" running plays. I would have liked to have seen a Dive play ran on first and second down during that goaline stand at the end of the game this past Sunday. Then that fade route to Chambers would have opened up. Nice play-calling. :fire:

If that happened Ronnie would have scored and this place might have some kind of sanity.

...especially when the WR's were looking straight into the blazing sun. First Booker goes up.....wow he can't see the ball. Ok, let's throw Chambers out there and guess what, he can't see it either! That was ******ed. At least throw it to the corner of the endzone that was in the shade, or try something a little less obvious
