What happened was the same thing from last year..new coach's, new play's new player's and the same out come(we lost). Its hard to win games when the other team runs 73 plays for 318 yards to our 43 plays for 213 yards. That tells me the defence needs help the offence needs alot of help too....all but ricky. before I turned the game off in the fourth with 8 minutes left miami had 7 penalties to the bucs. 0 penalties. the fins needs alot of help almost everywhere but it's the first game.we have alot of young player's and alot a learn.lets hope we will see some improvment next game.
Simply put:
The first team Miami DLine is NASTY . . . the rooks Merling and especially Langford look like MONSTERS. I know Vonnie will start on the Line . . . but I can see why they want him at OLB . . . because Merling/Langford . . to go along with Fergy damn sure impressed me.
Henne was the most impressive of the QB's tonight, but Beck was ok as well . . .they both did things that I liked . . . but nod goes to Henne for leading us to both FG's.
McCown . . man I know he was with 4 rookie WR's and a rookie RB . . . and a 3rd string Line . . . to which I don't even know the 2nd string line . . so imagine the 3rd string . . . but he looked BADDDD. Me personally I wouldn't waste reps on the guy, because with Chad P here . . . we have our vet QB.
Lord get us some WR's . . . because that will kill the development of these QB's if we don't have a consistent pass catching threat . . our RB's will be our best WR's this year at this rate . . . guaranteed.
Overall we could NOT stop Tampa's short pass game. The first string D could . . . but once we got the reserves in . . .there was less pressure and those short passes killed us all night. I don't have the numbers . . . but it would not suprise me if Tampa had us on Time of Possession 40 minutes to 20 minutes . . . or something like that . . . they had some long drives.
Dan Carpenter . . . we might as well keep this kid, because man a 40+ yarder off the dirt and a 49 yarder . . . better kickoffs than Feeley . . . he may win the job . . seriously.
I said it in the chat room . . . but please sign Ricky long term NOW . . that man was bouncing off of tackles and welcoming contact like I have never seen him before . . . we definitely can take our time with Ronnie if Ricky plays like that.
Speaking of Ronnie, u can tell he has a while to go . . . but it was good none the less to see him touch the ball . . . we know what the man can do when healthy, he may be almost there physically . . . but you know his mentals may not be there after that kind of injury . . . scared to do the things he would normally do.
Overall, I would have liked to see more of Beck. His last series . . . he was moving the team . . . unfortunately the drive stalled when a screen got blown up I believe and he dirted the ball . . . and then a batted pass . . . but he was starting to move the ball. Hard to do when the D can't stop Tampa on offense and Tampa eats up clock.
Looking forward to game 2.
