Pro Football Focus: Dolphins OL improved in 2015 from 2014

[Adam First]

We went from 32nd to 31st! :hi5:

[h=3]31. Miami Dolphins (32nd)[/h]Pass-blocking rank: 29th
Run-blocking rank: 32nd
Penalties rank: 25th
Stud: While Mike Pouncey is the best of this bunch, he didn’t even need to have anything close to his best year to be the stud here.
Dud: Is it time to call an end to the Dallas Thomas experiment? He graded worse in 2015 than he did in 2014, and struggled whenever faced with semi-decent opposition.
Summary: On the plus side, they moved up a spot. But that was due more to the Chargers being that bad, rather than Miami getting better. Given how much money and how many high draft picks the team has spent, it has to be considered a monumental failure that they produce as badly as they do.

Guessing Pagano doesn't know anyone who looks at PFF.

 

[ROADRUNNER]

Oh no it look's like o-line in the first....lol

 

[Vaark]

Pathetic

A lesser QB would have been emergency triaged and then put on IR. Anyone who attributes Tannehill's pissing blood to his own shortcomings, really needs a lobotomy. (or come to think of it, maybe already has had one :idk:)

Woo! Small victories guys!

Reading the comments of the actual PFF page, apparently everybody including colts fans question PFF.

Reading the comments of the actual PFF page, apparently everybody including colts fans question PFF.

PFF's grades for skill players are typically ridiculous, but IMO their grades on linemen average out to being reasonably accurate. If a lineman plays well, the PFF grade will usually reflect that, and if they're awful, likewise.

Their advanced stats are actually pretty useful, they measure all kinds of weird stuff like average time to throw, average time to sack, etc. and that kind of stuff you won't find anywhere else.

[hoops]

qbs fault :sidelol:

god I hope the days of personnel incompetence are over

 

[ChrisTRD]

By this trend, our QB will be the best protected QB in 2045.

Its not so much that Miami improved and more that San Diego was just worse.

Edit: I swear on my right hand that I posted this before I read the quote!!! LMFAO!

No reason that an offensive line with Branden Albert (huge contract), Mike Pouncey (team's "leader," huge contract and first-round pick), and Juwan James (first-round pick) should be this bad.

Maybe it's time to blow up the whole line. We have an easy out to every "starter" except for James. Albert can't stay healthy, Pouncey is overrated AND can't stay healthy.
