Its strange that our line sucks so bad? its almost the same from last year and they were decent, i know were not missing mckinney? anyway the problem is not all oline and not all cpepp and imo its not going to get any better. All i got to say to saban is this, when you look at our early draft picks and key additions next year they better be ALL o-line and i mean ALL of them, we have neglected the o-line for far too long! look at the teams that suck they all have bad lines, you can draft playmakers and trade picks for qb's all day long but until some of your best players are linemen you will always be just good on paper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look at all the qb's we have brought in since marino they all sucked because of bad lines!!!!!
 
teams that have a bad line: 1.miami-16sacks 2.detroit12sacks 3.cleavland-12 sacks 4.oakland-15 sacks 5.st.louis10sacks: this is though last week, teams with bad lines suck period no matter how good your other players are.
 
Watching the patriots game you can what a good oline plays like. The pats oline gives Brady lots of time to throw and amazing spacing for pass lanes. They just broke it down on cbs.
 
You've Got To Be Kidding Me!!

Are we seriously still blaming the O-Line for this year's failures?? Does anyone actually watch the games, or are you just lookin at stats!! Granted the run blocking just isn't there. But please do a nice Mississippi count next time Daunte gets sacked, he has plenty of time, watch how many ridiculous worthless pump fakes he makes before the sacks. I'd say 16-18 of his sacks are all his fault. He doesn't check down to any other receivers, i've never seen a quarterback who never moves his head, just zones in on his primary target and thats it. In the end his numbers are fine, but he is KILLING this team. It's a sad sad time for Dolphins fans, but lets say:

BRING IN JOEY!!!!!!

Are you drunk Mrs. Harrington?
 
Start counting off by counting our OL that we have drafted that are any good.

Carey, Hadnot are mediocre. The other 3 are cast-offs from other teams. you have to invest money and picks in the OL. We havn't done it for > a decade.

The line is the reason we can't run, and the reason we can't pass.......don't say people don't know what they're talking about when you yourself are an incompetent fan with no knowledge of anything remotely close to football!
 
Sometimes Daunte does get time and makes poor decisions, but my thoughts on the o-line is: o-line < crap. They are horrible, I mean the first half our o-line was getting manhandled by the Texans and it didn't improve much the 2nd half. Just a real shame...we have so much potential but with this POS oline it doesnt mean anything.

exactly. too many pump fakesand i swear his neck is broke because it never moves. he steps back and has his set on 1 option and thats it. as i sit here and watch other games and compare his time to throw to all these other teams there is no differnce except daunte just doent see the field. i think maybe he needs to have his vision checke and im being serious. theres something definetely not working in either his eyes,neck or brain.
 
hey dan182, take off your rose colouerd glasses ,our o-line is down right pittiful, ronnie has no where to run ,and dc has no time to check off his frist read, our skill positions are really good players, but our o-line dosen't give them any chance to show it. dallas put up 45 against titians, washington hung 30 plus on houston last week, it's the line,

actually its about half and half. there are a lot of plays that defenders have their arms around Culpepper before he even finishes his drop. But, when the line actually does give him time he stands like a statue waiting for something to develop.
 
tats pobably cause he is in shock by not getting hit on those few plays, maybe he is thinking the play got whistle dead, i don't think it's half his fault, may a 1/4. he is getting hit/hurried/sacked just about every play:dolphins: :tantrum: :mad: :fire: :shakeno:
