Instead of trashing our players saying Chris Chambers is overrated, Ronnie Brown is a Bust, etc. Why dont we support them like we should.

1st I didn't single out any one player. I don't think anyone is a bust yet. It's only 2 games and I only hope I can blame it on the another bad luck game against the Jet's. What I think though is we didn't play with any heart or conviction. One example they played the last 9 minutes of the game like it was the last 9 minutes of the 1st quarter. I saw things like someone I'm not sure who it was or what quarter but one of the backs blocking for the QB bi-ch up and look the other way. No sense of urgentcy. The anouncer kept saying the Dolphins D was keeping them in the game when it was the Jet's O keeping us in the game if that was the Steelers or Eagles it would have been 42-7. Again I know they won't be 16-0 or even make the playoffs for that matter but, show some progress show you want to win.

CC has been supported for the last 4 years here. At some point in time it is time to TAKE THE KIDDY GLOVES OFF.

Saban even said it, players need to be accountable for their actions. After 4 years and a big contract we need to finally hold CC accountable. He has REGRESSED in an offense he should be excelling in! There is nothing wrong with questioning his play.

Ronnie, yes he is a rook, but he plays at a position where it is the easiest to come in as a rookie and excel. For his draft position and coin he is making he needs to perform better. Anyone who wants to blame the o-line and his prep time is just making excuses because they are afraid for some reason to question our new big name player.
 
It was "support our team" types like you that used to flame anyone who trashed Wannspiel too. Guess who was right?
 
I don't see questioning a player and supporting our team as mutaully exclusive actions. I fully support the Dolphins and root like crazy every Sunday for them to win. At the same time it seems to me that Chambers has not been living up to expectations. With Linehans's offens we should see some downfield catches but it doesn't appear Chambers is fighting for those catches like you would expect a top tier receiver to do. As far as Ronnie Brown, I am hoping for growth and that he will end up being a big time RB for us some day. But as the number 2 overall pick in the draft I was certainly hoping for a bit better production right from the start. Questioning them does not mean I am bashing them. I still have high hopes and expectations. But I do think they need to kick it into gear and step it up a notch.
 
Chambers is what he is, an average receiver. Nothing more or nothing less. He drops too many passes and is afraid to fight to get the ball with the defenders. Expect nothing from him and you won't get disappointed. If he does anything, hey that's great. He has been here a couple of years and really hasn't shown any improvement. I really don't think that out of nowhere he is just going to turn it on.
