I only got to listen to the game so I could not SEE what was happening but I would like to hear any positives (if any) that you guys that watched it MAY have seen.

It sounded like Manny Wright blasted into the backfield on a couple of plays. I know he's still a ways away, but did he look like he was a least improving, especially conditioning wise?

Other than that, Sage sounded good (against 3rd and 4th stringers I guess) and Wes continues to impress.

Anything else worth mentioning for the ever optimists? :D

Thanks
 
Just A Question ,im About Too Watch The Game On Nfl Network I See They Replay The Preseason Game, Do They Replay The Regular Season Games Also?
Thanks
 
Yeah, true enough. I just hope it's not a glimpse into the future. I can't handle another 0-6 start. I am going to the Panthers-Dolphins game on September 25 and I would LOVE to be 1 and 1 going in, at least to give me hope.

I just don't know if we can top Denver or the Jets. I will however, remain ever opitimistic!!! :rolleyes:
 
The game will be on in about 10 minutes on the NFL Network.

Just in time too because the Minnesota/Tulsa game is about over.

No because they are national then. They are basically local for preseason. If they replayed regular season games, NFL Sunday ticket would not be needed(My direct TV gets hooked up tomorrow)
 
see my post 'Bottom Line' and i only saw NFL Live but it was enough

Agreed, listening to the game is a far cry from seeing the game....so all of you who actually SAW the game, . as disgusted as you maybe, please give us a rundown. Another disadvantage to audio is we never seem to have Dolphin commentators and they are so busy giving the play by play of their team, Offense and Defense that the plays are left to the imagination ......Ozzie - Muck where are you???
 
Positive: Derrius Thompson. If there was a pass caught it was by DT all night long! (except of course wes's TD)

Positive: Alex holmes can get open, and can make some great catches, but he needs work!!!! Fumbled the ball twice, and dropped a TD pass right into his chest. BUT He was always getting separation, and running great routes. IMO After the first ball got punched out he started to try and do too much. But on a few drives they were throwing to him on almost every passing down. He was a blocking TE in college, but he has a large upside. I hope this kid can go to the PS and learn some skills, cause he COULD be good.

Positive Manny wright was playing tonight! He was on the field for most of his plays, and was collapsing the pocket everytime. On one play he slipped through the double team, grabbed the RB and almost sumo-plexed him to the ground. After that he never quit! I saw no trout eyes from this boy last night. That 4.9 in the 40 is apparent, because his speed allowed him to cross the field and get the QB. GOOD JOB MANNY!

Travis had a nice play! He was doing a corner blitz ran up to the line and the QB saw him. He tried to tosss it, but Daniels jumped straight up and deflected the pass. It was a good heads up play.

Sage was looking sharp! The biggest thing that i saw though, was that when A.J. an GUS were in they were trying to run the ball like crazy. And there were way too many penalties that kept putting them in the hole. When sage came out though, they really started to open up the offense. They were passing on almost every down! I really would have loked to see what gus or A.J. could have done if they had opened it up more. I think though that they were more concerned with getting ricky and ronnie carries.

POSITIVE:!!!!!! No more of that crappy coverage. Bob griese was a good QB, but a horrible analyst! All he does is talk about the dolphins when he used to play. And he loves to talk about our 2 best players "Ronnie Williams, and Ricky Brown" I SWEAR if he ever mixes those up again I WILL @#%@#%$&#%^*$*($^(%^*(. WORST coverage i have ever seen. And BO we dont give !@#$ about your horrible interviews, ALL 15 OF THEM> AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amen to that. I think Griese is horrible at being an analyst. I try my best to not listen to him, he messes up on more than just Ronnie and Ricky; Ricky and Ronnie.
