It can't get any worse than last year. I think we will be alright. Pats front 7 don't scare me too much. Now if we played against the Bills front 7 or Jets then maybe I'd be scared.
Pretty sure that's the division we are in.

I'm worried about it too, especially early. But what we had last year was the exact opposite of chemistry. 3 guys united by their obvious lack of respect for another. That's 4 guys playing who were a mess and you can bet the other players, especially in that unit probably knew about it all and didn't exactly enjoy coming to work with them.
My biggest hope is that Lazor will have Tannehill making less decisions once the ball is snapped because he has trouble processing everything at a quick pace. But he is good before the snap so you can give him responsibilities and liberties like who to move around, especially once he gets comfortable in the new offense. Plus, if Lazor gives him more "1 or 2 reads then dump to a running back or short route to pick up what you can" type of decisions, the ball should be gone fast enough to keep him upright, and hopefully keep the chains moving.
Then I think we have to hope Lazor's concepts can create enough space for players to get some yards and that the ball arrives on time and on target. That's the part where Tannehill can really help this offense. I'm talking about doing it consistently, not just on big plays to Wallace.
Those are the best things to hope for IMO. But I'm pretty worried about this offense truly.

That means the defense will have to step up big time right? you guys forgetting that the dolphins were terrible on defense last season.

Is that you Ireland?
The front 7 might not scare you but our offense still has to score 35+ points to beat them. I'm scared

NFL Live sucks.
It'll be very hard for the OL to be worse than it was last year. If we only give up 3 sacks week 1 that's already a huge improvement.
And no it wasn't really bashing. It was saying the OL is about continuity and that luckily this injury happened before camp so we have time to prepare and get other players ready.

Maybe we weren't great on defense but we were terrible on offense. If the offense can ever match the league average in scoring and we are still losing games I'll start piling on the defense. Until then, we suck on offense.
If they're wrong they'll be proven wrong. Same with being right. It's on the OL and the OL only.
NFL Live bothers MIA fans... The easiest storylines in the NFL are "Sam" and the Dolphins Oline
My wife could pick this out
Seriously people grow a pair...
Our Oline is in trouble hopefully Lazor can buy Tanny some time and Tanny gains confidence in his weapons because our Oline is in tough
