The Suh/Wake wall in the locker room is no more. Now occupied by the wide receivers.

There are so many more female auxiliary staffers here with the Dolphins than in the past. Props to Steve Ross for the diversity.

[FONT=&quot]With that in mind, let’s take a look at who’s been separating themselves with our Team of the Week for the second week of preseason action:

[h=3]Offense[/h][FONT=&quot]QB Ryan Tannehill, Miami Dolphins[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The raw numbers suggest Dak Prescott should be here, but the key bad decision nullified by a penalty is hidden by his box score, but not his grades. Instead, Tannehill had a near-perfect outing in his first preseason action, scoring a pair of touchdowns, completing a fantastic pass on a corner route, and not earning a single negative-graded play against the Cowboys.[/FONT]

Steen said when the Dolphins first asked him to play center, he thought they were joking

Anthony Steen weighs 312.5 pounds. I know this because he did his media availability on a scale.


Joe Schad@schadjoe 13s14 seconds ago
Miami Dolphins C Anthony Steen, unsurprisingly says Adam Gase is more of a “players coach” than Nick Saban

Jay Ajayi on this game Thursday: Out mentality is like this is a regular season game

Heath Evans of NFL Network was gushing about the Miami Dolphins on Friday — we’re shocked as much as you are — with most of his positivity sourcing from the hiring of Adam Gase.

The notable Dolphins-fan-base-rile-upper (the Dolphins cut the former NFL fullback before he joined the Patriots) with nothing but hate for Ndamukong Suh actually thinks this could be a playoff team this season.

“I do think Adam [Gase] has the makeup, discipline-wise first and foremost for this team, and the head knowledge to be able to get in these players’ minds of what needs to be done,” Evans said on Hochman, Crowder, and Krantz. “This is a talented roster in some respects. I still think there’s holes that Adam will try to fix over the course of the next couple years but I do think for once in a long time the Dolphins organization is heading in the right direction with the hiring of Adam Gase.”

Granted this was on Friday, before center Mike Pouncey got injured (expected to miss at least the rest of the preseason) but Evans thinks this team is capable of making the playoffs.

“Listen, there is some holes on this offensive line that have to be masked,” he said. “That being said, we’ve seen great coaches mask plenty of holes on rosters. I would go out with the way Arian looks, if he can stay healthy, which I know what Adam is capable of doing with a back as talented as Arian, I would say yes, predicated on this defense, and the talent starting with Ndamukong Suh because he’s the so-called name leader of that defense, I still know Cameron is the defensive leader, Mario Williams, everyone fully buying into an [unselfish] defensive system, not chasing stats, not chasing numbers, not chasing personal satisfaction, whatever Vance says needs to be done… but you’ve got to buy in and it’s gotta be a team-played 53-man roster week in and week out to compete in this division.

“I think with the right mentality, absolutely yes.”

I appreciate the glowing reports we get sometimes but I want to see it on the field. I am tired of being disappointed
 
Nice to see my eyes did not deceive me with Tanny, dude looked good.
 
That second td to stills was the best pass i have ever seen from him.

Tanny had errant throws, behind targets, hi balls, but I will take the points over anything.
 
He looked damn good vs Dallas. Shame Landry and Cameron couldn't hang on to some of those balls.
 
That second td to stills was the best pass i have ever seen from him.

against Dallas? i'd say not
 
Pass protection is everything.

Tannehill "not earning a single negative-graded play against the Cowboys."

Yea, Well your still not getting back into the starting lineup, so sit down, and chop some pine.
