Yeah. The Dolphins can't expect to beat good teams when they are basically gifting them 24 points on 3 turnovers and a turnover on downs.
The team is never healthy what’s his up with that?

After the game, I expected tons of people who don't post here regularly to show up and say "I told you so"
Prior to what happened to Uce I had already lost pretty much all the confidence I had in this team during that nightmare of a football game.
I bought into it and some folks were unfortunately correct….. this team regressed in the offseason. Significantly.
Never thought I’d really miss DeShon Elliot until I saw Medicare member Poyer out there last night. Slow as **** and consistently out of position. Ugh.
When you resign a small time, injury prone QB to a huge contract…yeah what do you expect. Still making excuses for Tua
Tua apologists need to own up to fact that those of us who said not to extend him were right.
We seem to think that prior injury or health issues are a market inefficiency that we can turn to our advantage. Just think about some of the recent moves, from memory:The team is never healthy what’s his up with that?
Dammit, you are speaking logic and making sense.Tua to the side, and all prayers for him......but we were getting our butts kicked before he got hurt. I know we had injuries late last year, and that gave me some hope to maybe expect something different, especially with Buffalo losing some key players during the off season. However last year, IMHO the biggest issues on the team were OL, play calling, and no legit #3 receiver.
Losing Williams and Hunt make this OL even worse. The fact that Grier came out and basically laughed at everyone questioning the OL just shows me the guy doesn't get it and never will. The play calling was the same forceful crap that doesn't work against good teams, and he was late AGAIN several times leading to wasted timeouts. McD needs to give up play calling now! I mean how many times can you run a FB dive successfully?
Lastly, the first 2 Tua ints were based largely on our 3rd receiver not running the route correctly. The last one although a bad Tua mistake was based on the fact that our OL sucks and Armstead was out again.
When you don't address problems and issues, and actually regress in some instances.......can you really expect a different outcome?
and the dude that has been the most durable is a running QB with the surname of Hurts. WTF is that?Agreed, me too.
Agreed. People can question Tuas injury prone status. But not his talent. He was consistently a top QB statistically and metrics wise.
If healthy he was better then Herbert and just as good as Burrow. If not better.
Something to consider.
After signing big contracts, that whole draft class suffered big injuries. Burrow and Herbert. Love this season, now Tua.
Thar draft class was mad talented but can't stay healthy.
Did you see that Miami has the OLDEST roster in the league?The team is never healthy what’s his up with that?

I think its where "done" players go to ride into the sunset "Jordan Poyer" anyone?
Brittle players are a staple in Aqua & Orange
If this was a court case this list alone would be enough to get Grier indicted of mismanagementWe seem to think that prior injury or health issues are a market inefficiency that we can turn to our advantage. Just think about some of the recent moves, from memory:
- Drafted Jaelen Phillips with a major injury record
- Drafted Austin Jackson after he donated bone marrow
- Drafted Waddle coming off an injury
- Drafted Tua coming off a major injury
- Signed Armstead with a massive injury record
- Signed injured OBJ
- Signed injured Wynn
- Signed David Long with a major injury record
- Signed Anthony Walker with a major injury record
It is more a feature than a bug. As if we seek these guys out because there is less interest in them than their ability would suggest there should be.
Tyreek and Waddle were on the bench discussing the weather.The play calling was really puzzling. Spamming the same plays over and over, even when down 21.
Keeping Achane in the game while down 21 in the 4th quarter with your backup QB playing, when he was apparently injured, is by far the most puzzling decision. Not only that, but they kept handing the ball off to him. You're down 21, if you're really trying to mount a comeback why are we not airing it out to Hill or Waddle?
