Here we go:

- Free Pouncey... from his contract.

- Kenyan Drake plays tougher than his stature would suggest. He was good today.

- Officials were dreadful again today. Missed DPI all over the field (against Denver), Landry flat out robbed of a first down on a great effort because of an incompetent spot, and more.

- Denver is so bad that the awful officiating in the Broncos' favor actually kept this blowout much closer than it should have been.

- Gase's biggest mistakes this season? Not leaving Jesse Davis at right tackle for an extended look at him to see if he can potentially replace Ja'Wuan James for cheap. And not getting Asiata active to get some reps next to him.

- Another fumble this week. This time, Kenny Stills. Ball security.

- On the subject of Kenny Stills, he's just abusing opposing defensive backs on a pretty consistent basis.

- Devante Parker, MAKE A PLAY!

- X finally gave it to ya. Twice.

- Stephone Anthony certainly didn't do anything to change my opinion that we have a lot of very dumb football players on the Dolphins.

- Why do the TV networks think that anybody wants to see or hear these fluff interviews with former players on the sidelines during the game? How about instead of stuffing more awful commercials into the broadcast, the networks consider getting rid of pointless sideline reporters who offer nothing to the viewing audience?

- The 49ers beat the Bears today. I do hope that the Bears do badly enough down the stretch to get a house-cleaning, because there are several good coaches on that defensive staff that could find their way to Miami.

- And finally, how about John Elway and the great job he's doing with the Broncos after inheriting a stacked football team? How many 6'8" retards who can't throw a football is this guy going to draft before somebody hides all of the pens in the draft war room?


Hope everyone enjoyed the game, even if you want the team to tank. It was a nice reprieve between two weeks of getting clobbered by the Patriots.
 
It was one of those games where everything went right for us - even when we botched things we seemed to get it right back from another incompetent team. 3 turnovers and 15 first downs by our O isn't going to get it done next week or against the Bills or the Chiefs though the latter two teams are struggling now.

It was nice to see a snap go over the head of an opposing QB for a safety for a change...
 
Spot on analysis. Thanks for taking over and doing these this season wanny!

There was a lot to like today. I realize we were playing a fellow bad team, but they still have a good defense. Roby is pretty damn good.

I want to see Brendel - Asiata - Davis

At C - RG - RT

I know it’s unlikely but i think they need to be given more play time to evaluate them. Cut Pouncey / James immediately. I have been behind James but for the price / vs what we may have from Davis (and Eric smith) i think we should move on. Pouncey is just a liability out there anymore.

Vincent Taylor showed some promise
 
I flipped on Cleveland/San Diego just for the hell of it and man, Njoku is making some incredible grabs on Kizer's awful air mail throws.

Why didn't we draft this kid?

Hindsight sucks.... try not to dwell too much. But think, we could have not signed Thomas, drafted Njoku, and and maybe got sheard over Branch / throw in a pricier guard than Larsen... We would be in a lot better position right now
 
There was good and bad from Drake. I think he could be similar to Lamar miller for us. Still need a power back though who is also a complete 3 down player...

But still, better OL play will help anyone, plenty of runs where Drake is hit behind the line
 
I think we save 7 mil by cutting Pouncey.
Isn’t James like 8 or 9 against the cap? Thomas at like 6 i think?

That’s a decent amount to work with right there, get Landry paid and then worry about the rest of the roster.

Paid a reasonable amount mind you
 
It usually take the All 22 footage to show how often Stills gets open and abuses his defenders but you can see plenty of that on today's broadcast footage alone. I can't imagine how often he was open when the All 22 footage comes out.
 
Parker needs to step up i agree, but I’m at least giving him next year with tannehill back.

The top 3 we have now CAN be a lethal trio
 
Cameron Malveaux balled today. I like his bull rush, was in on several hurries today. He’s got some tools to work with. He’s very intriguing moving forward. Also Bobby McCain continues to improve. He’s been a bright spot in an otherwise dismal season.

That was a chip on the shoulder game for a lot of players. If some of them played with that much intensity we would not be where we are today.
