What are you guys think will do on defense coming out? I’m a pessimist so you know how I feel. I think the game will be decided on this drive or at least very important.

 

[dunegoon]

This defense is more disappointing than our offense first half...

 

[mandal24]

flores, poyer, fangio, weaver... maybe its the players and not coaching?

grier is so obsessed with skill guys, someone needs to tell him football is won in the trenches

Show of hands: Who though at this point, the cheatriots would be the only AFCE team winning their game?

I didn't. But this is how it goes as a Fin fan.

 

[Tursiops truncatus]

Our offense has been such a let down.

It’s not just Tua, but let’s be honest. Dan the Man had an even crappier O-Line back in the day. He would electrify ANY offense he would have been put to play. Tua… ahhhh… does not have that “IT” factor.

 

[Sticky Gloves]

our pass blocking is doing well. i'd go more traditional and allow tua to hold the ball a bit longer

I don't think Tua excels at that, that's why the offense is built this way. He doesn't have the arm strength to read the field and make throws as he sees it. Everything needs to be anticipatory.

 

[Lilseb93]

LOL. What heat? He got extended for 4 years and the Dolphins are pretty much locked into 3 years. Tua would have felt heat if they didn't extend him, but that ship has sailed.

From the fans and media. The org may be high on him but in year 3 he's going to feel more heat from fans and media to perform. He may have job security but even then you still have to provide results.

 

[CF Dolphan]

At least we had a semblance of an offensive line last year. Back to the old Lolphins

 

[Phins up]

He’s inactive

He’s inactive

He's has 3 rushes for 7 yards

Our pass blocking is being asked to do very little and that is a big factor in the unimpressive offense.

 

[VAFinsfan72]

Let me get this straight.

In the past few months, we paid Waddle, Hill, Tua, Ramsey and McD for this?

[McDolphins]

This happens when the entire offense sits on their ass all preseason/offseason.

I was just thinking the same thing

There’s no such thing as a tweener. TJ Watt and Micah Parsons are both tweeners, and they’re the two best edge rushers in the NFL.

The issue is our defense. And if Chop isn’t good, then he isn’t good. But it’s not because he’s a tweener.

Bro their absolutely is such a thing.

Watt is not a tweener whatsoever.

Parsons is and that’s why teams run right at him and bulldoze him.

He’s great if he’s one on one and just rushing the passer. But when asked to set the edge or stop the run he gets pancaked or caught up in the trash in the box.

Fully disagree there is no such thing as a tweener. Their absolutely is
