- Jevon Holland is a stud. He had a nice int but he’s been getting a ton of pressures too. He’s a guy who passes the eye ball test every game but nice to see him get the big plays of validation.
-Emmanuel Ogbah 2.5 sacks he’s a dominant pass rusher.
- Mike Gesicki, those one handed catches were wild. He’s so freaking good.
- Jerome Baker finally making a big time play. That was clutch to reestablish himself on a throw away and toe tap the int. That’s not a normal LB play.
- Mack Hollins, this dude has the clutch gene. He had the TD before half. He had the late game first down conversion and the special teams play to down the ball at the 1 yard line. He is an ideal role player, and has become one of my favorite players on the entire team.
- Jaylen Waddle he’s our best offensive player, he’s a WR1 and a consistent weapon. And that’s with bad QB play and a shitty offensive scheme (excuse my language but it’s bad).
- Jaelan Phillips, the option play where he flushed out Tyrod and made a play on the RB was awesome. He consistently flashed his elite athletic traits.
- Byron Jones he had a few pass break ups on plays that could have been big plays. He also set the edge in the run game. He made a big time run stuff on a play that could have been a big run.
- we got win number 2 and 49ers got spanked by Cardinals back up QB. Huge for draft position. Also was nice to see the Jags beat Buffalo
 
Awfully quiet In here after a win I know it’s a meaningless win and the season is over but think Dolphins fans prefer the misery and drama
OP listed all the postives.
I really do not know how I can add to that..

Im happy we won, but it was the Texans. There is no joy in beating that Texan team that wanted to lose, played to lose, tried to lose.

😂 you said it, it’s a meaningless game, brissett is awful to watch. The dolphins are not a fun team to watch. Most fans already checked out of this season. Empty stadium is proof of that. If Ross doesn’t fire Grier and Flores after this season he’s an idiot.
 
I think if Tyrod had a few games under his belt this year they would have beaten us
 
Also noticed on the game day thread it was relatively quiet. I guess since Tua wasn’t playing some “fans” didn’t bother to show up to bash the QB.

I can't speak for others, but for myself, I don't want misery or drama. What I want is hope.

At this point, there is not much hope. Ross, Grier, and Flores mortgaged the team to get a bevy of draft picks which, at this point, looks like the poorly handled drafts over the past 20 years that Grier has been involved in. Flores' ego and personality seem to get in the way of him acquiring and keeping a decent coaching staff. It is a shame because his first 2 seasons did show promise, but the lack of continuity on his coaching staff appears to have a detrimental effect on the team.

Even the way they treat players is bush league. They make Tua their "franchise QB", but not even halfway through his first year, they publicly go after another QB who has 22 unresolved sexual suits against him. Whether Tua can ever stay healthy and develop into a quality QB in the NFL remains to be seen (although that appears less and less likely), but at least give the kid a shot and show him some respect. Although I shouldn't be surprised with the Harbaugh recruiting by Ross during the Sparano era.

If Ross does the right thing and hires a "real" football executive to bring in a quality GM and coach, there will again be hope. Right now, it is pretty bad.
 
I'd add Brandon Jones along with Holland. He's been solid since he got here. Plays much bigger than his size. His heart and drive remind me a bit of Zach's.

P.s. Big Brandon Jones fan and I have no shame saying I'd love a piece of signed equipment 😁
