Dolphins - Civil War? Will the Findom fall?


Recommended Posts

"Ace Per Head" - Dolphins Talk guy discusses some concerns coming out of the Miami area as conflicts between the GM and HC develop.

 

Story coming out that Flores preferred Herbert to Tua. In addition, Flores / Gailey  did not think Tua was ready last year .. yet he was started.

 

Love that McDermott and Beane are soooo in synch.

I hope they do a hard knocks next year.

 

So you like watching car crashes in slow motion, then?

 

They are a mess.  If this is accurate and Flores was advocating for Herbert, can you imagine what this team would've been with him as he could've covered up a lot of messes.  Not that I wanted that one.

It’s pretty obvious that Flores didn’t like Tua as a starter, his flaws were and are all to apparent , nice to see more internal tension on our opponents teams, 😁👍

Well Flores was definitely correct on that with Herbert. As for the decision to start Tua over Fitz, that was definitely a head scratcher...Lol, maybe Flores did it just to try and make a point?

It would be even better if the direction came from the owner. I know several dolfans and they can't stand Ross.

It is awesome to not have drama like that in the organization for a change. Feels almost refreshing to poke fun at other teams misery. And I wouldn’t even say that Beane and McDermott are in sync as much as they share a common goal and know each other’s preferences/abilities. They’re not step brothers, but i’d like to imagine they are.

I think the only thing preventing Ross from demanding Grier deal for Watson is the uncertainty of Watsons ever playing again. Should Watson put his legal issues behind him, Grier will have to obtain Watson or find another job.

The Dolphins have been dysfunctional since Adam Gase was hired as head coach.  The Jets have been dysfunctional since Rex Ryan was head coach, and so far conclusive evidence that it's over is lacking.  Things are getting more dysfunctional by the minute at Foxboro.  Meanwhile at OBD things are humming along like a well oiled machine.

Haa!  Hindsight is 20/20.  Of course everyone wanted Herbert.  Of course Tua wasn't ready last year.

Which one decided not to invest in the OL?  Even Herbert would look like donkey-doo behind that line.

 

Thats the problem. That and they signed a WR that doesn't play.....

I’ve been following this story quite a bit as members of my family are Dolphins fans.  The entire handling of Tua has been completely odd right down to putting him on IR for an injury that was listed day-to-day.

 

What is strange is the Miami fan base who seems completely delusional.  Most are completely behind Tua and think that the OL and lack of running game has let him down.  If I had to take a poll, I’d guess somewhere in the high 60%’ would take Tua over DeShaun Watson.   
 

They are cool with Flores but want Grier fired for his bad drafting.

They seem to be teetering on edge of being good to falling over the cliff. Seems like an awful lot of turnover on the roster from year to year. Flores seems to be a solid coach although I must say that having two OCs this year is head scratching at best and don’t see Tua getting better at lol this year or the future. Looks like back to the QB dart board again!

The fish have invested a ton of high draft picks on the o-line.  The problem is that the guys they’ve picked aren’t any good.

I would guess the GM. Since he decided to disregard HC Flores when wanting Herbert for his QB and instead took Tua. I agree with you that their OL is struggling, however I do think Herbert would still do better than Tua behind that bad OL.
