I just got back from the game today and here is my 2 cents

1. The offensive line looks much worse in person then on TV. There was absoluelty 0 holes for ronnie brown all day. The only times he got any yards were when he bounced it outside, it was pathetic. The pass blocking was a little improved but terrible

2. For the most part harrington found his WRs, but overthrew them deep alot. He didn't throw deep a few times when WRs were WAY open.

3. Mularkey still sucks. We didn't run enough. I also thought we should of used vick for a trick play, before the game he was warming up at QB(since he was 3rd string), whcih means his arm was atleast warmed up. Also i think just about every 3rd down again we used Shotgun which is idiotic.

4. Secondary is attrocious. The last couple of years it seems Favre throws atleast 2 INTs a game and we get 0? Will Allen had a couple of chances, but has stones for hands.

5. This team has no discipline. This team commits so many stupid penalties in crucial moments of the game. Also the stupid Will Allen unsportsmanlike penalty, why the hell would u do that, u suck will allen!! You made a tackle, nice job you actually did your job. I have always been saban supporter, but he needs to get in these guys faces and give it to them when they keep ****ing up.

6. WR corps is the most overrated group in the NFL. We had atleast 10 dropped passes and 2 of the INTs that make Harrington's stats look bad. I have come to expect it from McMichael, but 3-4 in 1 game along with giving up 2 INTs is ridiculous. Also hagan is fitting right in with chambers and booker dropping passes.

7. This team showed NO passion at the end of the game, i don't know if they showed it on TV, but when we got the ball back on the last drive, people were walking to the huddle and line of scrimmage(even welker which i was suprised). Hell Randy and Chambers weren't even running full speed on half of them because they weren't getting the ball.

8. To end on a good note, Jason Allen got some playing time, he played proably 1/4th of the time, he didn't make any plays but its atleast good to see him get out there

Also to anyone who thinks i am a dolphins basher from this post, i am not. If you have read any of my previous post, i am a huge dolphins believer, i always back everything they do(saban, ronnie, culpepper, etc.) Except Mularkey
 
It pretty much looked that way on TV. I couldn't believe that the offense wasn't hurrying more at the end of the game.
 
I noticed the half hearted way they were going about their business also. REAL SAD ACTUALLY.
 
Do our receivers ever get wide open? From TV it looks like they always have a defender on their hip. It seems that they never get seperation
 
I went to the game today as well Ucfinfan and I pretty much saw it the same way you did. However I think that Joey played like absolute ****. Sure he threw 2 td's (one of which came after we got the ball on the 5 yard line) and for 400+ yards but the picks he threw were not only very costly but they were the kind that you say "wtf, is he playing for OUR team or what?!". I agree that the recievers dropped a ton of balls , mcmike... ahem, but Joey is not the answer. Also, that 80yd run on the the first play for greenbay on that drive in the second quarter after we got a FG was atrocious. This team is just plain bad... I didnt have to see it in person to know that but it becomes much much more apparent.


I so hope that Daunte comes back after the bye week.

They are never wide open, and when they are wide open deep, they don't throw it.

I also agree to the guy that said harrington is not the answer. Daunte will start vs chicago and if he stays healthy will start the rest of the season IMO. Also from watching Cleo Lemon warm up with Harrington before the game, hes got a hell of an arm, he must not have much awareness or accuracy because hes got the speed and the arm strength
 
thanks, nice to hear from someone actually there, it didn't look real good on tv either
 
It seemed like once Hadnot went down the line had BIG troubles with Jacox in there.
 
I would agree with most of what is said. I am growing really tired of this harrington character however. I realize that when a pass bounces off a receivers chest and goes for an int it's not his fault. thats fine and dandy with me. I guarantee all off cpeps ints weren't all his fault either.

I really want to go back to cpep for the year and just get ready for next year. give him the rest of the year to get some chemistry going with the guys and learn from mistakes. I have seen enough of joey.

I think he threw to chambers 4-5 times today. most of chambers catches were negated by his coming down out of bounds. most of his catches were miraculous grabs on poorly thrown balls. He did have a route where he had about 3 yards seperation and joey just plain missed it.
just like the last few weeks, joey is showing me no accuracy. overthrows underthrows. the receivers 7 times out of ten either dive, jump or have fingertip shoestring catch. Yes they miss some easy catches as well, but joey is a lot to blame and I am growing tired of defending him.

2 minute drill. the QB has got to take control and get everyone hurrying. twice I counted over 15 seconds wasted in getting to the next play. pathetic clock management.

63 pass attempts and less than 20 rush attempts is simply unacceptable.
they made an interesting statement today.
i think in points scored we are 32nd.
and I think they said 31-29 have all fired there offesive coordinators already.

CC was covered by the best CB... he for the most part was not getting any seperation from him... the only time that CC was opened Joey either overthrew him or missed the opportunity altogether...

CC was basically covered all day and as another poster stated was lethargic in the last drive...like the rest of the Offense...

???? Which is it?

I saw wide open guys getting overthrown, or not thrown to.
 
there were chances, but they either couldnt come down with the ball or it was overthrown...everyone started booing mcmike near the end of the game after he dropped another pass and it showed him on the big screen which made it all the more humiliating
