missed the game, was Cutler bad as he is just not having a good season or is our OL not giving him time or openings for our running game? Was very surprised to see the final score.
 
It was Adam Gase just like it was last week. Awful preparation. Awful playcalling. Awful job of not adjusting in game at all. He's earned an F grade yet again. F for get the **** out of Miami AND go **** yourself. Tired of his rah rah garbage now. He needs to use all that anger and aggression on the person in the mirror.
 
While I don’t think Cutler is the solution, I also don’t think he’s the biggest problem. The line is definitely the biggest issue.

That being said, if we are picking high enough, I’m picking QB

Agreed. I like Tannehill but 30 years old and coming off a major knee surgery while proven to be good not great? We would be stupid not to draft a QB with our upcoming top 5 pick. With that said I don't expect us to, because we ARE stupid.

The ONLY saving grace for this franchise going forward will be a legit franchise QB.
 
Everything stems from Gase's incompetence in play calling.

We can't run the ball because they stack the box. We don't throw deep so they stack the box. Screen passes don't work with this team so they can't counter blitzes effectively. God forbid you see a slant or a crossing route. We throw short passes on first down, run on 2nd down, and then pass on 3rd down in usually a 3rd and long because the run didn't go anywhere. It's the same pattern every drive. Besides putting yourself there by penalties (which could also be blamed on coaching), putting yourself in constant 3rd and longs gives you a smaller margin of error.
 
Everything is on Cutler. Even the way the defense plays at the end of games is on Cutler. The guy plays football at the speed of a geriatric in the fast lane with his blinker on and all he cares about is not getting hit on every play. His opening interception was a joke of a fade thrown right to the defender and it killed the Dolphins entire game.

Major knee surgery? You mean like the one Tom Brady went through in 2008 and was obviously done afterwards.

ACLs are not career killers for QB's.

Yeah, because Ryan Tannehill is Tom Brady.

He's not a franchise QB. We need a franchise QB. This isn't a team that should be reliant on an above average 30 year old QB next season. This is a team that obviously needs rebuilding and needs a cornerstone franchise QB to build around.

Tannehill is better than Cutler. We get that. Doesn't mean we should ignore potential franchise QBs in the draft.
 
I only saw part of the game but this is not the offensive line's fault:




That said, offensive line not playing up to its pedigree is very troubling. Gotta fix that ****, boys.
 
Thanks...Wow, sounds like just an awful game...thought we would be competitive with the saints. Wonder why Gase play calling is so inept this year.....wonder whats going on in his head?
 
Although as much as I bash Gase's play calling, Cutler doesn't get a pass either. He doesn't the ability to escape pressure. As soon as somebody gets at him he either throws some lame duck pass or he gets sacked. He always runs to his right. The guy doesn't have any energy. He looks like he doesn't give af. His ball placement has been off.

The O-line isn't great, but you can't run the ball when teams stack the box on you. We don't make teams pay for that. Teams are going to pressure the QB on 3rd and long because you need time to throw it. The guard position is an issue, but the O-line is by no means the biggest issue.
 
The problem with the Miami Dolphins, is the Miami Dolphins. Just dreadful all around, the best thing to happen to this team will be the offseason, and I'm not 100% confident we won't find a way to **** that up.

On a side note you probably did yourself a solid by missing this **** show of a game.
