Tannehill is looking crystal sharp.   And I like what I see from the defense.   If this first quarter is telling, I have reason for hope, which I haven't had in a long time.

Surprised no one has strated a thread on this game.

Jamar Taylor pick six!!!!  He just earned a spot on this team!!!

Team is clicking on all cylinders

And Damien Williams just got his sorry ass cut.  Fucking idiot can't hold on to the goddamn ball!!!!

Did we just get screwed in a preseason game?

Idiot coach challenges a play at the 1 yard line and costs his team the ball. Philbin just isn't a head coach. I mean 2nd and goal at the 1 wasn't good enough you needed to challenge that play? MORON!

I can't knock him for challenging the play. Any coach in the league would have done the same.

Not a team with a good offense. The ball was at the 1!!

Walt Atkins sucks. He can't cover anyone or tackle

Both of them need to go!!!  I swear to you, this is going to be an 8-8 team because of Philbin.  The guy is a fucking disaster.  He could fuck up a plate of scrambled eggs

Great stop by the defense.  Now Panthers fans can bitch that their team had four plays to get two yards..... and they couldn't do it

They've played very well until the goal line mishap.  Don't know why all the sky is falling talk is going on.

Sky isn't falling. Don't care about the outcome. But Philbin with an F' up is just discouraging to see. And Atkins now needs to step up and start so his poor play is troubling as he is the "new" starter. Now Jamar Taylor with a quad injury out for who knows how long and our secondary is getting beaten up bad and we have no depth

Bashing one guy and one coach isn't the "sky is falling"......Starting Offense looks amazing in 2 preseason games and the d-line can't be blocked. Very high marks for the starters

LaMike James is making a case to be the backup RB behind Miller

He probably won't even make the team. Williams is the #2 and Ajay will be the #3 RB

Philbin would be smart to rethink that after tonight.  He's had some solid runs and serves as the return guy

He was terrible as the return guy last week and made some god awful decisions. When the real games start Landry will get back to returning punts. Anyone can return kickofs

Great play by Vigil.  Too bad it was overturned

He's really looking good tonight.  If anything, Gillislee is the one to be cut after not looking back for a ball that was an easy catch for a TD.   

Matt Hazel is also making a case for that 5th receiver spot

None of those guys will make the team.

Miami just needs to trim the roster to 53 now. The last 20 or 30 guys on this team should not even be on an NFL roster and the last 20 or so guys on the 53 are borderline.

wasnt talking to you Mikeo, was referring to this.

Miami's depth at certain spots sucks. You can make a case that after Albert, Pouncey, James, Turner, Thomas, Douglas that every other o-linemen should be cut and the Fins should just sign other guys.  Seriously the rest are that bad, I mean really really really bad.  Obviously it won't happen but you can make that case.

Matt Moore, Josh Freeman, and the MBT all stink. None of them should be on an NFL roster.

How was the O-Line before they were pulled for the Arena Leaguers?

Turner whiffed on a couple blocks
Every OT on the roster right now is struggling. The backups all stunk
Dallas Thomas looks like a new man and is playing well

Turner seems to be whiffing on everything. If Thomas can somehow resurrect his career into a solid Guard, then we may be alright until Philbin screws it all up.

In the preseason maybe...

Not in the regular season. You're now 2nd and 1. Why take the risk?

Turner sucks. Lowest graded offensive linemen for fins last night. ....counting the backups

Still looks like a good draft from last year, but this guy is a bust.

actually not really, the draft looks worse by the day. Aside from James and Landry and maybe Fede as an average back-up DE the rest of the draft looks awful.

Lynch was already cut. Turner is a back-up at best. Walt Atikens can't tackle to save his life and looks lost, the fact he may be starting for us Week 1 is downright scary. Jordan Tripp is a walking injury. Matt Hazel isn't making this team at WR.

Hickey hit home runs in rounds 1 and 2, after that the struck out on almost every pick minus Fede.

Given Miami's draft picking over the past 15 years, I consider home runs in rounds 1 and 2, and another decent player in a later round , being a GOOD draft.

So because we have had bad drafts for the most part for 15 years, one year where we hit on 2 picks and possibly a 3rd it's a good draft? Um, no

Anyone else concerned these drives are only getting TDs because of playing 4 downs? Otherwise we come away with lots of FGs.

Not so much. And I am going to say this after watching some preseason games, with the new extra point rule I am not so sure Miami (and other teams with talent at the skill positions) shouldn't go for 2 almost every time. I mean if you have strong WR's, good TE's, a strong QB and an above average RB....why not go for 2? I would roll the dice on a short 2pt conversion  rather than a longer kick (even if you have a good kicker)....risk reward is so there to go for 2 almost every time!

Miami's biggest problem is the o-line. I rewatched the first half of the Panthers game and Billy Turner was pathetic. I mean he was so friggin bad its not even funny. He gets blown up on run plays and he lets blockers by with ease in the passing game.  They cannot start him week 1 of the season, he is that bad! When defenses start to gameplan and try....he will get destroyed.

Please tell me Douglas is going to start over Turner.

He isn't much better

Jamar Taylor's injury isn't serious. Just announced he will only miss 10-14 days

You rewatched half a preseason game??  Good god man get a hobby or something.   ;D

it was on the NFL Network, nothing else was on. Not that big a deal.  ::)
