Teal Death Do Us Part: Miami Dolphins 2013 season thread

[intruder]

didn't perform ?

Starks was much better than Odrick yesterday, and I love Odrick but he hasn't shown yet why he should be starting over Starks

The didnt perform part was about the running game.

But why was Starks benched? Disciplinary reasons? Just how hard is it for a grown man to act accordingly? The best receiver I've seen in a Dolphins uniform was Brandon Marshall hands down. But I couldnt fault the team for letting him go because the cat couldnt stay out of trouble and was a headache for coaches.

So you really think Ronnie was better than Ricky just because Ronnie started? Ricky was just on a short leash and the organization didnt wanna rely on him as our primary back and be let down again. Ronnie Brown didnt deserve to even take half of Ricky's carries IMO. But Ricky being so unreliable the organization had no choice BUT to invest in Ronnie after they spent the #2 pick on him

It's all about the $$$ with the dolphins..they don't wanna pay Starks this offseason nor keep him because of his age..they want young guys to buy into their wack ass philosophy...
Mike Sherman needs to go just off the basis of not using Reggie bush the way he should ha e been used last season...your gonna continue to see sporadic bipolar play calling from Sherman..it's why he got canned at Green Bay and in Texas a&m

I personally dont like Sherman but was happy with the hire because (and only because) I felt his presence would help Tannehill's development. I figured since we've already invested a top 10 pick and money into a QB might as well bite the bullet and take whatever necessary steps to make sure he develops and succeeds. I wouldnt mind seeing Sherman gone once we know for sure if Tannehill will be the QB for the next 5-10 years or not.

As for Starks I cant blame the organization for not willing to commit long term to a player his age. It's not like we're a winning franchise right now so you dont need to be losing AND be in salary cap hell at the same time

Dont even get me started on giving away Marshall for two 3rd rd picks


Everytime I see this nikka balling in CHI thats all I can think of

Now we overpaid Wallace when we had a superstar WR

I don't follow the dolphins so I don't know the details, but why did they let Brandon Marshall go a few years ago? That dude still a beast.

thought he was a locker room cancer and felt he was living up to his contract

but mostly didn't want him around a rookie qb

I feel you on what we got for Marshall. I wanted to drive down there and strangle Ireland myself when I heard of that shyt. Dude is beasting in CHI. Wallace is nowhere near as good as BMarsh. He cant even fight for the ball. Marshall would fight 3 mofos for a ball thrown his way. Too bad he would often drop balls when in single coverage

Coaching staff decided he would be too much of a headache for a rookie coach and rookie QB to deal with. I didnt like the move but I cant disagree. I really liked the dude but it seems like trouble follows him. I had mixed feelings about him when i saw the ESPN special about his domestic violence history. THought he was past that when he came here. But with the wife stabbing him incident after he got here i was pretty much done with him

oh.

Still hustling backwards to a degree. If they woulda kept him, never woulda had to overpay for wallace.

Even with the pro bowls, Cam Wake is still so underrated.

Is it just me or does that dude get held on almost every play?

 

[954UAlreadyknow]

If we still had B Marsh we would be a playoff team right now............no question in my mind

every. single. play

nice to see Jordan get a sack out the way, was he mostly in on 3rd?

little concerning to see the TE get over 100, Ellerbe needs to earn that check and cover the seam

Didnt know he had a sack. The few times i saw him he was on the sidelines.

As far as those TEs killing us we need to fix that this weeks else Andrew Luck will feast

Despite the WR upgrades, this team still can't get it done in the red zone. Losing at 7-6 at halftime after the opposing QB throws 3 picks? And you can only muster two field goals? Shameful.

I thought he got a sack but it didn't count because he grabbed the QBs facemask.
