Actually sounds about right. This year 3rd downs felt a bit more hopeful than years past, all the way up to 3rd and 10 or so. When the offense was rolling, we stayed up ahead of the chains, but on the flip side, few times a game easily we'd have 1st and 2nd down basically wasted, either with a failed trick play, a sorry ass run, or holding call, and then Tua would be stuck with 3rd and long, and he would pull it off at a better rate than I recall in a long time. This is all going on overall feeling from watching the games, no stats. Could be wrong but sure felt that way until the last few games where the offense dropped off.

Yep, we also ran the 11th most plays and were 18th in average time per drive. The way some people tell it you would think we would be in the bottom 5 for both.

I'll tweak that. "The way some people tell it you would think we would be in the bottom 5 in everything."
 
The Dolphins are currently a middle of the road team. The eye test and stats support it. Middle of the league in stats, and we couldn't beat good teams but could handily beat bad teams.

We need a good QB to come in here and change the culture. Heads need to roll. Starting at the top. I am starting to think Grier really has some serious dirt on Ross for him to still have his job. I used to hear ppl joke about that, but now it seems that is likely because who know more about the Flores situation than Chris Grier.
