This may come as a surprise to some of us, myself included, but nothing we do here actually affects anything with the team. So two years ago my jersey of choice was Tre…torn ACL. The next year Poyer…injured. Last year I bought a Rick Jeannerett jersey…he died. This year I started Tre and look what happened. With such a bad opener I switched to my RJ jersey. I figured that he is already dead what else could go wrong? 3-0 baby! I used to think I couldn’t buy jerseys of anybody until they got extended. That wearing a QB jersey was a curse. But apparently I can’t wear jerseys until that person is dead. I’m basically a walking sports voodoo doll. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Frazier was a good coach but McD seems to have this defense playing with an edge I have not seen. I also think this was the first week the offense played like a finely tuned machine. I know we have scored a lot of points in the other games but this felt like the first game they played well start to finish. Maybe it's just because it was Miami but good job Dorsey. Milano is a beast and we are all going to be sad when it comes time for him to retire. I'm heartbroken over Tre. He was just becoming himself again. I hope he can fight through this and come back next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoBills Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 11 minutes ago, billsfan89 said: They are reaching the tipping point of having to draft and develop players in order to maintain a good roster. And their roster is seriously flawed right now. Their defense is not very good despite having some pieces (Howard, Wilkins, Phillips and a few other good players) and they have a bad offensive line. Hill and Waddle are amazing, they appear to have found a very good RB in the draft this year, Mostert is also a good fit to add speed to their system and Tua when healthy executes that system really well. But they will need to get better along the offensive line and get better defensively in order to avoid losing shootouts consistently. They haven't had a strong draft class in several years so it remains to be seen how they can develop long term. I doubt if they add Tua on a sizable 40-50 million dollar contract they will be able to sustain any success beyond being a flashy 9-10 win team that gets bounced early. Wilkins is one of the UFAs I talked about. He will want his $20M per year. Even guys like Van Ginkel will want the $s. Miami's 2024 free agent list. It's a big one. They are $40M over the cap with these guys to sign/replace. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/miami-dolphins/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really reminded me of us years ago, bringing in Rex Ryan to an extremely talented defense. He was supposed to take us to the next level. But his system never fit with the players on the roster, and it never meshed on the field. Some coordinators seem to ride the coattails of really talented players for awhile then the league eventually learns their lesson and they stop getting jobs lol at least with someone like McDaniel their offensive play design has been objectively great so you know what he’s brought to the table as a coach. But some of these hirings around the league are real head scratchers at times it’s anecdotal but that Denver defense has imploded with fangio gone so who knows who’s to blame. It’s possible he just inherited a defense not well suited to what he likes to do too or maybe a little bit of that and he’s also a bit overrated Xavien Howard is washed and he doesn’t have Ramsey yet so I’d think they’d improve a little bit later in the season at the very least.

Kohou got abused playing outside I don't think the problem is Vic Fangio himself. It's how his scheme fits the Dolphins roster (or should I say doesn't fit). Very possible that we are witnessing a lose-lose situation. Yes, the Broncos miss what Fangio brought to their defense. But at the same time, his system is a poor fit for Miami's player skills. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That dolphins defense isn’t really well suited for anybody haha I’m not sure what their front office has been doing on that side of the ball they’ve def gotten plenty of offensive returns on the tyreek trade but there were just so many holes on that defense.

Yea they certainly couldn’t have done much worse lol their corners are atrocious though so he was probably worried about them holding up if he kept adding pass rushers.

mykidsdad Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 They literally played the defense I said they should. Probably the way most people would have said to play it. D-line push and get hands up. Get there with 4. Bang the receivers off the line. Bracket Hill. Take some chances in zone coverage. Jump a few routes. Get Tua to second looks. Be loud in the stands. And the execution was next level. Bills offense A+ Bills defense A+. I love this team. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
