Missed the game..saw highlights...fill in the gaps please

[dolphinator86]

Well i was traveling yesterday from Athens Ga to Stillwater Ok and i missed the Dolphins game. But i woke up this morning and saw the highlights and while there wasnt much of a score i liked what i saw from highlights yes i know they are highlights but i got some ideas from them and i would like for people who saw the game to fill in the blanks for me cause i have some assumptions and questions.

FIRST...Sean Smith = AMAZING I have no problem saying he is like the same kinda of freak Adrian Perterson is at his position...just a stupid talent and he is big fast strong and very instinctual

Second... from what it looks like Penny had a good pocket for his short time on the field...even the time he got sacked he had a good pocket till he had to break it. Did he have a good pocket or was he running around alot due to pressure?

Third...our receivers look like they are catching everything which is a good thing bess made a few catches i looks like ginn did too and Cam made a good catch as well

Fourth...ricky and ronnie had 6 carries for 32 yards alittle over 5 yards per carry....was there alot of holes or did they bounce outside and create or was it wildcat running?

Fifth...defense looked nasty tons of pressure and sacks is what i heard....my question is how did we get pressure did we have to bring alot of people or could we bring 4 or 5 and get it? And how quick was the pressure were they coverage sacks or just fast in your face kind of stuff?

Sixth.....special teams allowed a punt return for a TD...the highlights said he was shut down till then....is that true? did they show any signs of improvement?

Seventh....we may have the best three back combo in the league...cobbs is a very good and productive back him with Ricky and Ronnie potentially makes us a very difficult offense to deal with

anyone who can answer these questions maybe add some stuff to help me get a grasp on this game that would be a huge help...thanks guys!

FIRST...Sean Smith = AMAZING I have no problem saying he is like the same kinda of freak Adrian Perterson is at his position...just a stupid talent and he is big fast strong and very instinctual .omg great catch

Second... from what it looks like Penny had a good pocket for his short time on the field...even the time he got sacked he had a good pocket till he had to break it. Did he have a good pocket or was he running around alot due to pressure? lots of time good coverage down field when sacked

Third...our receivers look like they are catching everything which is a good thing bess made a few catches i looks like ginn did too and Cam made a good catch as well yes bess and cam made superstar type catches

Fourth...ricky and ronnie had 6 carries for 32 yards alittle over 5 yards per carry....was there alot of holes or did they bounce outside and create or was it wildcat running? i think i saw one major hole the entire game no wldcat to speak of

Fifth...defense looked nasty tons of pressure and sacks is what i heard....my question is how did we get pressure did we have to bring alot of people or could we bring 4 or 5 and get it? And how quick was the pressure were they coverage sacks or just fast in your face kind of stuff? lots of coverage sacks but good pressure too .joey harrington got to know the smell of the turf very well

Sixth.....special teams allowed a punt return for a TD...the highlights said he was shut down till then....is that true? did they show any sings of improvement? wow i almost thought we had this issue completely fixed and then well u know the rest

Seventh....we may have the best three back combo in the league...cobbs is a very good and productive back him with Ricky and Ronnie potentially makes us a very difficult offense to deal with i love ricky and ronnie but cobbs has great vision and hits holes without hesitation and needs alot of touches this year

anyone who can answer these questions maybe add some stuff to help me get a grasp on this game that would be a huge help...thanks guys!

1. Freakish INT. What else can I say?

2. Great pass protection all game long.

3. Very little drops today, none that I can actually recall. Though our WR's getting open is a different story.

4. No wildcat. Most of it was Ronnie and Ricky. Run blocking has been disappointing all preseason, last night wasn't much different.

5. Alot of good pressure. Harrington was holding onto the ball waaay too long, so I guess alot of the sacks can be considered "coverage sacks".

6. ST was playing outstanding. That TD at the end was a real letdown.

7. We do have a talented three headed monster indeed. Unfortunately, if the run blocking doesn't get better soon, I'd start to worry. But I feel we'll be fine. I like the way Cobbs hits the hole and goes. Ricky as well. Ronnie's been in this league long enough, and he still dances too much, I hate it.

I like Cobbs too. But everyone needs to remember when guys like that get thrust into the starting lineup or get alot more touches than in the past...they often get exposed.

Its not like Cobbs was drafted as the next big thing waiting to replace Ronnie or Ricky. He's a nice player who should continue to be used how he is used now. I think thats the perfect role for him....making him valuable as a backup RB.

I want Cobbs getting alot of playing time on 3rd downs. I feel he can make alot of plays for us in the passing game.
