Philbin, Coyle and Lazor all fired and the Dolphins end the season early to take the #1 draft spot.

It'd be the happiest I've been as a Dolphins fan since we made the playoffs in 08!

You'll have to out lose the Lions though. Do you really have that kind of commitment to awfulness?

Praise Stafford for hanging in there and working hard to be ready to restore the Roar next year.

"Matthew Stafford had to take over the worst team in NFL history.....twice!"
 
Man, those restore the roar post died quick.

Yeah don't really miss those posts. I honestly didn't think the Lions would finish below you guys in the division but lo and behold it's on it's way to happening. Last time I think that highly of Detroit I guess.
 
Over the last couple of years, more defensive oriented coaches have been hired. Jets, Browns, Cardinals, Bills, 49ers... It's just a natural progression coming off of years of offensive minded coaches being hired, which led to massive amounts of scoring, so now the chess match is becoming a bit more even, but still favors the offense.

And what a great thing it has done for our wonderful defense.

What can you do.

Our defense was never good enough to carry this team, even if we had all our best players not injured. We need a lot of offense, and our QB is injured.

Props to Weeden honestly, you've done a decent job. But we aren't the Broncos, we aren't the Rams, our defense isn't good enough to support just a decent QB. We need an elite top 3 QB. And he's gone.
Tough tough tough loss. Our defense still ain't good enough.
 
This is a long season that really has only the Patriots and Packers above the rest. Things could change quickly 4 weeks from now whether it be strength of schedule for certain teams or injuries. If we can pull off a win tomorrow night I'm certain we'll be back in the playoff hunt.

There was a nice time at the start of the season where we were up 21-3 against the Chargers. We've stayed close in all 3 games against good opponents but haven't been able to pull one out.

Like I said if we can pull out a win tomorrow night, and this team certainly has the talent to do so, we're back in the playoff hunt in the NFC. If we don't the season is officially over and all we can do is play spoiler and see where we end up in the draft. And we have a few compensatory picks coming from Suh and Fairley leaving plus the trade down with the Broncos last draft.
 
Lots of competition but Bills OL bottom 5 unit. My god, Glenn and Incognito are ok, the rest were and are abysmal. Shady sit out the season, dude won't be able to do shit behind this unit.

Bills should have limited the run far earlier. For this reason and the fact the Giants lbs were giving it up like it was prom night all day.
 
Luck's release looks like it has gotten slower and sloppier this year, and is accuracy has been worse this year than any other. Not sure if it's due to injury, but I'm hoping he works on some things on a mechanics level.

I read something that said that Luck's size/bulk makes it hard for him to quicken his release. Hasslebald's quick release saved him quite a few times in the pocket today.

I used to hear this same thing about Tebow and other QBs that are sort of bulky (Wussle?). I am confused, how exactly does this affect throwing motion? And what allows guys who have the body of the average gaffer (PeyPey, Tammy, Ben, Erron) pretty much fine tune their throwing motion to their liking?
