Last year at this point, we were 1-3 And faced the Titans and beat them 38-10 on the road. Last year was after a bye, this year we get 10 days off.. Same record. same oponent except we're at home... Would you bet on 2016 Gase Dolphins to match Campbell's 2015 Dolphins?

Not sure how I would set that money line though since scoring 38 would be very unlikely even if everyone plays good. Philbin was just fired so the team was pumped for Campbell who was very liked in the locker room from all accounts and every break went their way in that game. But 2016 has the advantage of playing at home... So what's your pick and how much faith do you have for 2016 Gase's Fins?
 
Not sure why anyone is surprised by this team this year. Very little changed from last year. All we can hope for is that the behind the scenes stuff has an effect as the season progresses and we see improvement. Other wise the best thing that can happen is the team has a high draft pick next year.

None. Gase is a fraud as a HC.

Yeah I see you've already made up your mind about him. What is it that makes you so sure? Im not being a smart ass, Im interrested in what you have to say about it.

Probably not. Talent-wise, we are not any better than 2015. And if you add the fact that our guys are still having some growing pains from learning a new system, we could definitely lose this game.

Not sure about him, but personally I haven't liked his game management. I'd be willing to let him stick around though... if that was what the new GM decided after we finished tar and feathering Mike Tannenbaum.

Yeah I agree 38-10 is a stretch because everything went well for the Fins in that game... How would you rate the chance of the Fins winning comfortably this time around though?

It's gonna be a nail-biter, imo.
 
The only frauds on this team are our GM/Owner and our JAG QB. We haven't nearly enough of our HC with our **** team as much as we've seen from the former I stated.

And OL, LBs, RBs, CBs....

Who's a fraud on the O-Line? We know exactly what they are. Who has proven to be a fraud at RB? Especially after last game where eveyone was at the very least average. Now if they were drafted in the 1st round and paid 96 mil maybe I could see it. Only fraud at CB is Maxwell but we knew he was terrible for the eagles so we basically illogically expected him to be better for us. Nothing different than what we expected from our LBs. Jenkins is inconsistent (plays like the draft position he was drafted at) and arguably a fraud but not paid like one, Misi is average but injury proned, and I still want to see me from Kiko.

Albert is a fraud as he's getting paid alot for 16 games and only plays half of that, same for Pouncey, same for James although not a high salary is also a 1st rounder btw... I mean were you serious?

First off he was chosen by Ross and Tannenbum. They have yet to show that any of their decisions deserve any amount of praise and both have proven time and time gain to be failures in the NFL.

Copied from an earlier post: Gase had say over who he wanted on the roster and his strength was using personnel to their strengths. Even the incompetent Philbin was able to coax 8 wins out the roster on a regular basis and it's been upgraded since his departure. Granted maybe it not significantly but very few positions were actually downgraded.

A good coach should have a positive impact on the team regardless of the reflection in the standings and so far this squad has looked like ass playing unprepared and undisciplined football. Add to that Gase is hands off with no clue on the defensive side of the ball and we've simply got another offensive clipboard holder who was hidden by the talent of a HOF QB with minimal experience in actual coaching.
 
At this point last year the team received a big kick in the rear with Philbin being fired and Campbell pumping up the team. Facing an equally as bad if not worse team in the Titans.Campbell's team fired on all cylinders and every player gave great effort.

This year I don't see the same situation and expect a close game. We saw last week how Gase's team performed after coming off of 2 loses facing a beat up Browns team in the Dolphins home opener. I don't expect any better effort vs the Titans.
