Did you expect better results from the talent that the Fins are fielding every Sunday/Thursday??? The team is playing exactly to their own level like water will rise to a certain level and stop. We are deficient at so many positions that we are fortunate if we win 4-5 games and they will all have to be on the arm of RT in high scoring affairs. Playoffs? Playoffs? As Jim Mora would say, I'm just trying to win a game here. This team needs the same Head coach in place for the foreseeable future with a mass overhaul in the roster. Sell off whomever frees up cap space and begin again.

I agree, what is all this talk about the QB now? He is who we thought he was, a barely avg QB that needed a lot of help around him to function at a high level, this team has not had talent in a long time, looking at the schedule I thought they would be 1-3 at this point, so no surprise here.....for some reason I think this coaching staff is good, I think you will see these guys play better each week.....this team is not far off, gets some real talent at CB to go along with the two young kids already on the roster, get a couple of stud LB to go along with the LB we have now to create depth, DL is set, OL is set, WR is set, more help at TE and RB and get a project QB on the roster for grooming and this team will compete for a playoff spot....
 
With a young coach I expected long stretches of unabashed attacking football, and some areas of significant improvement even if those areas were under the radar entering the season.

I am disappointed. I can't point to anything dramatically improved. Actually Tannehill's YPA is a career high thanks primarily to improved yards per completion. That would be great if it were evenly distributed instead of so much in the second half when we trailed huge, and therefore of dubious quality. He found lots of yards in overtime against Cleveland only because of a missed kick following his own fumble. Counting interceptions his Adjusted Yards Per Attempt is equal to last season, not above.

I'm interested when we adopt a play action look with a decisive plant and fire. Just once I wish we would abuse those downfield darts all game long, dismissive of consequence. I know what to expect when we throw short.
