Ok Diehard FIn Fan here but its time to be realistic. While I was throwing up after the game(not alcohol related) i determined that we really do suck. Plain and sinple, we need players that can get the job done and we still need to somehow play the game with emotion. Every game this year was so boring. I dont know what to think anymore except that we really do suck. :boohoo: :boohoo:

no emotion. no urgency. no passion. we suck.


Well said. We are just flat and have no business being on the field like that.
 
What's missing?
An offensive coordinator who doesn't have his head up his butt.
An offensive line not made of Arena League rejects.
A defensive backfield that can actually cover in the open field.
 
12 carries for Ronnie Brown, No blocking by the O-line (run or pass), Culpep still holding onto the ball too long (not as much this game as he has though), No urgency at all and our defense is filled with holes.

We don't run the rock enuff, 12 carries for Ronnie is unacceptable


Was thinking the same thing. It seems as if we take the option of running away with sacks, stupid penalties, etc. Its like we were 2nd and long or 3rd and long all game.
 
Why isn't Ronnie getting more touches, I just simply don't understand the logic behind the play-calling. 39 pass attempts to 12 carries for Ronnie. I am bewildered by not pounding the ball and keeping the other teams offense of the field. I am seriously starting to doubt our coaching abilities on the sideline. Where's the intensity the emotion the fire. This team looks soooo flat and enigmic. I almost dare to say stick Harrington in their just to see what would happen. Give Ronnie the ball for crying out loud!!!
 
We lack team chemistry.

I saw several games side by side today for the first time in my life. I could Tell right away that the fins lack cohesiveness as a unit when compared to most other teams I saw.
 
i'm just tired of being bored while watching dolphins games this season. it's hard to hand the ball off when the line consistently put us in 2nd and 20, 3rd and 15 positions...

Great point, other teams seem to get receivers open, pass protect and do well with the basic fundamentals of football. We dont.
 
Well when Chris Chambers is our leading rusher with 1 carry for 14 yards well into the third quarter, I would have a hard time giving it to a scrub named Ronnie Brown too. He is not getting it done. He doesn't have the "he played against a great defense" excuse anymore.

He does need more carries. But, there are two factors not included here -

1) The Oline is bad
2) Ronnie is getting a lot of passes - of the 26 completions, 8 were to Ronnie - so he's getting a decent # of touches.

The lack of fire is very true. Flat and enigmatic are well stated.

we don't run the ball more because when when we do we can't run the ball,simple logic
