Someone at ESPN believes!

[BassFin]

I can't post it because it's from the ESPN insider but Eric Karabell one of ESPN's Fantasy Football wizards had a couple of good things to say about Miami.

One question was about starting Lamar Gordon this week. He answered that Gordon should start and have a good game against the Cincy D. Then he went on to say he thinks Miami will turn things around with Feely at QB. Mind you he wasn't asked, he just offered his opinion.

Then someone was asking about TEs, specifically Randy Mac. He said McMichael is a top 10 TE no doubt. And he then said that he bets Feely and Chambers will start a strong reltionship starting this week.

I know it's not a "Sexy" reporter like Mort or Clayton, LOL, but at least someone out there hasn't flushed us down the toilet yet.

The guy reports on Fantasy Football for crying out loud.

It has nothing to do with real football games, it's all about individual player statistics.

Although the Phins will be lucky to win 6 "real" games this year, congrats on your lofty Fantasy rankings. :roflmao:

When the Dolphins have the ball

Rushing:

By gaining just 65 yards on the ground this week, the Dolphins did nothing to discount the theory that their rushing attack will be dismal in 2004 without Ricky Williams. Gordon has the potential to be a solid between-the-tackles runner that can provide good production on first and second down and allow them to control the clock. But he still is so far behind in terms of his assignments that the team can only afford to use him in certain situations.

His role should be increased this week, but his timing and feel regarding his offensive line is still a work-in-progress and, no matter how accustomed he gets, he's still not the workhorse of versatile playmaker that Williams was for this unit. One problem that must improve is the poor execution by the offensive line, which contributed heavily to the team's 14 penalties and also made several mental mistakes.

The Bengals' defensive front seven is vulnerable against the run and struggled against the Jets on pulls, traps and sweep plays. Look for the Dolphins to run off-tackle, especially right at SLB Kevin Hardy. Running outside will help hide their lack of an inside run game, plus it's a better fit for their running backs' style. The key may be the blocking of the offensive line on the second level. If they have success running the ball, it will take pressure off Feeley.

Passing:

The offensive philosophy of the Dolphins could make a big change with Feeley as the starter. Feeley is the athlete that Fiedler is, but he has a quicker release and makes better reads and decisions than Fiedler, allowing Miami to open things up more and to throw more often. The Bengals will try to take WR Chris Chambers out of the game with combo coverage and "man under, two deep" zones, and they will be more than happy to limit Feeley to completions to TE Randy McMichael and WR Marty Booker in a "bend-but-don't-break defense."

The Dolphins will go after Cincy's corners that seemed to struggle with indecision last week, particularly rookie Madieu Williams. The unit, as a whole looked, as if it could not decide whether to play press coverage or to sit back in off schemes. It gave up a lot of inside releases and slant routes against the Jets, and this week it needs to get a good shove in at the line of scrimmage with its corners and "feed" the receiver to their safeties. With a weak Dolphins running game, the safeties can get more involved in pass coverage. The Dolphins' best bet will be to counter with more three- and four-receiver sets to loosen up the defense into nickel and dime schemes, taking the Bengals deeper into their secondary than they want go.

ESPN can think, print and predict anything they want...

Bottom line dude, DO YOU BELIEVE???

Our O-Line is a work in progress, to say the least, our QB looked great in prevent/soft coverage, and our Defense is now another season older, paid and fully cogziant how the biz works...BUT:

You, myself and every other delusion Phan in Dol-Fan-Land must believe, because if not us...

Whom will?



Throw in some Pearl Jam, spin the black circle and keep rootin' for our beloved team dude!

It's because Patriot fans in general are gay. And that's not just me talking smack. I'm serious, i read that NE has the second largest percentage of homosexual fans, right behind San Fransisco.

Not start LG? He is the best back we have. Anyways, I agree that we are going to prove something Sunday and it is even sweeter that we get to do it on ESPN. :D

What does that have to do with football? Thats typical, so far today someone on this forum has knocked New Yorkers and homosexuals, does that make you a better person to knock someone down like that?:shakeno:
