OT: Dolphins Look Awful

[QB12]

Watching the Dolphin - Tampa Bay preseason game on NFL.com's Preseason Live. Dolphin 1's look awful. Sluggish, sloppy. Brandon Marshall drops first pass thrown to him. Sparano looks disgusted and frustrated. Can you say Overrated?

 

[Big-T]

That rain they're playing in doesn't help, but they haven't looked good.

First preseason game.

 

[QB12]

Yeah, with the first string of the supposedly first place in the East in 2010 Miami Dolphins.

I know, but still...first time with live action, plus that rain storm.

OT again, but when the hell are the Dolphins or Marlins going to get their own stadium? That dirt part of the field is going to end up hurting someone (I am sure it already has, I just don't know off the top of my head).

The Marlins are, if not next year the year after that and they're changing their name to the Miami Marlins.

Well that eliminates the Dolphins from the east title chase...Phew

It's a clay mix that clumps up in the rain, so you can never get a good dig in it.

I just pray to God we don't play on that field in that kind of weather.

I'm scared to make a thread on this forum. QB12 points out a divisional rival looks awful in preseason game 1 and everyone is giving him crap.

It's about context... Not to mention that QB12 really read a lot into what he was seeing..

On that note, I have said that the Dolphins weren't going to be good this year because of their OLB situation..

Thanks for that patsinthesnow.

I hope when I grow up, and have over 15,000 posts, I can understand 'context' as good as you.

Unfortunately, this game will not shut up any Dolphins fans. Oh, how I'd love to point out that Henne threw more picks than TDs last season, or that two NFL GMs have said that Henne is nothing special, or that Marshall only had three 100 catch seasons because he led the NFL in targets over that period, or that Marshall has needed games of 18 and 21 catches to reach 100 catches in two of those three seasons, or that Davis and Smith were statistically the worst pair of starting CBs in the NFL last season. Yeah, they're overrated, and I'm not even watching the game :lol2:

That's true.. but what does this have to do with Mankin's contract?

 

[QB12]

It's all about 'context' Gwedd, don't you know?

 

[PatsCanDoIt]

The Steelers don't look good either. Matt Stafford is picking them apart from the shotgun. Best is awesome.

The Bills had a really tough game 1 too.

 

[MoLewisrocks]

The Bills had a really tough game 1 too.

In their case it's expected to be just the first of many tough games this season...

First preseason game.

That's why he is dropping passes? Because it is the first preseason game? Didn't seem to bother Edelman that it was the first preseason game.
