These guys aren't special

[Dolfan4life]

Sure we have lots of pro bowlers, lots of first round picks, etc.

However, these guys don't special together. Across the board on paper we have better players than the Patriots. Yet they know how to win and our guys don't.

Example: Mare vs. NE Kicker (don't even know his name)

I would take and most people in the NFL would take Mare. Yesterday though their kicker made the two kicks he had and Mare went 1-3.

I know that is just a kicker example but it can be used more I just don't want to keep going. It is useless folks, no matter how you spin it this team is terrible.

We need to start playing Bell, Allen, Roth, Vickerson, Evans, Hagan, etc. to see what we have.

Rebuilding is so painful to watch.

Saban does need to start playing the youngsters to give them experience. This season is over. There is no reason for Jason Allen not to be starting now.

particularly with a coach who hasn't done it

I agree the dolphins need to start playing more of the young guys. Allan should play more this week. How about Vickerson and Evans who was a beast in preseason. I know it was preseason but he showed alot of heart and strength.

If booker is out this week hagan should start. I'm afraid that Welker is going to run out of gas soon. Welker is being asked to do alot with KR PR 3RD WR. I'm afraid he'll start to fumble alot with the returns do to fatigue.

He's also pretty much the only one who is playing well. Well, Donnie Jones is, too.

yeah its just a shame that the rest of the team isnt backing wes up. he goes flat out all the time and is a top player but it means nothing unfortunately when the rest of your team fizzles out and doesnt step up to the plate to get the wins

 

[PressCoverage]

Mare slipped on a bad field that gave way under his plant foot... His other kick was blocked...

But please analyze for us all how we have "better players across the board" than a Patriots? Ridiculous....

They are better than us at just about every position accept for RT, No. 1 WR and maybe RB... please see things a bit more clearly...

It means something, it means in the offseason when Saban sits down and makes the tough cuts and culls out the guys who don't get it, Welker's roster spot will be perfectly safe.

Agreed. Welker is not going to last at this rate-he is going over the middle alot (because he's a gamer) and getting hit hard. That pass he caught on the 2 yrd line was a bone crusher. Everyone in Gillette gasped at that one. Chambers is a non factor and cannot separate from 1 on 1:shakeno: I watched him all day and was shocked at how bad he played. Maybe Saban needs to call him out again. Roth looked very good yesterday-I don't understand vonnie holiday playing that much.

yo DOLFAN4LIFE...i feel your passion bruh...but please do not be foolin yourself...we dont have the same caliber of players as the Patriots...different pedigree...they're champ-breed, we're mutts...now, can we aspire to greater?...surely...but that right now, is a far horizon...one i hope we all get to see them reach, together...

I have said it a couple of times Chambers is overrated. Except the last 6 games last year of course. But correct me if I'm wrong, I think Chambers had dropped alot of balls in the first half against Buffalo before showing up in the second half.

You are correct-he is overrated but unfortunately we gave him along with another underachiever (mcmike) a huge contract and are stuck with them. Also, Zach was a non factor, crowder looks lost, and spragan is really slow. There were about 2 billion quality LB's in this past draft and we passed on all of them-why?
