Why we were 1-15.......

[MikeO]

First half made me sick. Only good thing is we are only down by 6 and the Jets can't put us away.. We play wide open in the preseason then our balls shrink come Week 1.

1) Offensive playcalling was HORRIBLE BEYOND BELIEF!! I know we have no WR's and a QB with no arm, but we try nothing trying to throw the ball down the field. We were 1-15, everyone thinks we are horrible anyway....open it up and take a shot or two!

2) D-Line is getting pressure but can't wrap anyone up

3) Secondary is awful

4) Both Fields and Carpenter were bad in the 1st half.....

5) Why isn't Ted Ginn returning every kick?

Oh well, we can hope for a miracle in the 2nd half..

I agree, sloppy play, but lets give them a chance this game. We can still come out on top with some solid second half play.

Any team can look good in preseason; there's a lot more experimenting than gameplanning during preseason. Hell, Joey Harrington was like a preseason All Pro QB for the Lions.

Regular season starts and now teams are going to go back to business and play the way it's supposed to be played. We're a very young unexperienced team. I didn't expect anything more from what I saw today. This is going to be a 2-3 year rebuilding period. Our players are going to need time to develop, and IMO or hope, they will get better with experience and more games this season.

Let me get this straight... We were 1-15 last season and you expect them to be worldbeaters the first half of the very first game we played? Yes we looked a bit sloppy but stfu with the whining. The rebuilding process doesn't take a half of football to fix...

well the the truth is , our front office did a horible job bringing in talent and you cant deney it we should have brought ina vet ot and drafted mcfadden or mendenhall. this wr corp is the worst of all time no matter how you sugar coat it.
I know that I have harped on bringing in the woods brothers and bowman but i am convinced that i was right and that the jake long pick was another draftbust when we could have gotten a 3rd or 4 rd ot and been just as well off. I am surry people but I am very angry right now.

We have 2 very good running backs and you wanted another running back?

Fields is awful, i cant believe they didn't get another P in the off-season. When i saw that 9 yard punt i almost vomited.

 

[Dolphin_Daz]

We have NOT improved....at all....maybe, maybe a bit on defence. Thats all.

if we lose because of lack of talent that is one thing.

when we lose because we are STUPID and make STUPID mental mistakes that is another!

 

[DolfanDaveInMI]

I think today should serve as a reality check. We saw a few sparks of talent, but we've still got a lot of maturation and roster churn before this team becomes competitive. We'll be drafting in the top 5 or 6 next April.

110% Agree

If Earnest Wilford can't dress over soem of the scrubs Miami put at WR today.......then we should just cut him.
