For me, the effort given to start the year by players, especially in the home opener, tops the list. There was no excuse for it, coaches or no coaches.

Tannehill has not played well, and has not taken the step forward we all expected, and I blame him, not Lazor.

Albert was a shell of himself to start the season. Fox would have been better, as I get sick for typing this.

Wake was hurting to start the year and then lost. When healthy he was as much or more than we expected.

Suh did not fit in to start. Took a while but is now what was expected.

Cameron has done little, forced to block which he cannot do.

Still was hurt but, now is looking closer to what most thought.

Delmas injury was a huge problem. He was the QB, glue, and cheerleader of our secondary.

OV did little of nothing to start but, recently even with Wake out has been playing very well. Tie into Suh's play.

Grimes has been OK but, not what was hoped for.

Taylor has done little to prove he belongs.

Sims injury hurt our O a bunch.

I can go on but, that's about half the starters who have disappointed. Most have reasons, and it has little to do with coaching.
 
110& - Ryan Tannehill.

Each of his first 3 seasons he got better and better each year. This off season he signs a 'franchise QB' contract, gets a new and improved receiving core - and looks like a rookie QB all over again. So, so disappointed in him its un true.
 
The Buffalo home game was absolutely pathetic. Game 1 at home. Full house in stage 1 of the upgraded stadium and the team was flat from the getgo.
 
Tannehill is by far the biggest disappointment. I was really thinking this was going to be his break out year. Now I'm just over him
 
Devante Parker being non-existent in his rookie year.
 
Th team is basically what I expected when we decided not to fill needs in offseason.
 
You pretty much hit on everything. I'd definitely have to go Joe Philbin starting the season as coach, followed by the way the team started the season, and Tannehill. 4 years and there's no consensus on him either way.
 
Too many issues to count.

So SB, you still riding that Dallas Thomas train to the grave?
 
The lack of this offense to develop any kind of identity. Three 1st round picks on the O-line, a deep receiver corps, seam threat TE, couple of pretty good RBs, ...and for some reason they can't execute jack ****.

This has to fall largely on the coaching staff, but at some point Tannehill also has to show some ability to maximize this abilities of this group. If he is going to be The Man going forward, he has got to take ownership of this thing and start finding his own ways to make things work.
 
The offense for sure. Although it doesn't take a genius to know why we're still struggling. Game in and game out we see Dallas Thomas and Jason Fox ruining plays and it's so frustrating because our FO simply refused to fix the OL in the offseason.

And then you have the defense that is still struggling with the same issues it had late last year: Giving up too many points, not being able to stop the run, etc. And once again you look at how the FO refused to get a competent MLB, how they neglected our CB #2 spot.

This team has plenty of issues, starting with the coaching staff, but we also have a severe lack of talent all around.
 
The defense was tremendously disappointing but

Tannehill has started to morph into Chad Henne, which was the biggest disappointment for me.

Actually, a version of Chad Henne with MUCH smaller cojones :( :shakeno:

I can understand your dissapointment but Chad Henne comparisoms are beyond ridiculous, we are speaking of a qb that never threw more than 15 tds in an nfl season and never once in Miami ever thrown more tds than int.
He is not making the progression he made last year and has dropped off some but Chad Henne at his best never played as good as Tannehill at his worst
