I don't think Phillip Rivers is the answer...

Yep. Bottom line, you DO need a good o-line or your QB is going to struggle mightily. We're in week 9 now. Competent teams know they can win a game in the opponent's line is bad. And a QB is going to suffer from declining production trying to make something happen. Its happening to Cam and Rivers. Neither one is their most recent game. They're both closer to what we've seen earlier in the season...

Rivers has some horrible games because he takes chances. He can throw an interception because he actually releases the ball as opposed to dropping back 20 yards, getting outside the pocket and then still taking a sack.

The result is still the same...an L...

The Dolphins have been a good team for years. They just never can go from good to great and playoffs. They're one playmaker away usually.

He needs a few more weapons.. he is a solid vet now and is game as fug. I think his O line is great but pretty fuging slow... they are just huge... Fluker is a goddamn tank and King Dunlap is like 6'9 330. They play against great pass rushing teams... yeah they def miss woodhead.

Rivers will bounce back next year with weapons reloaded.  He's got a pair of good TE's, some good RB's, some underrated WR's and just needs help in front of him on the OL.  OC Reich is quickly moving up the ranks of the NFL coaching ladder.

 

Bounce back?

How about this year.

Next 2 weeks Pats and Donkeys come to town.

Win those games and the Bolts could be looking at Home Field in the Playoffs.

They could get hot... but if they finish 1-1 here then I would still be surprised.

 

They'll have to outscore an offense that is on fire without D Thomas.  Running for 200 yards a game in the last two weeks.

 

Then play the Panthers who have a lot to be fighting for with Miami and Buffalo both biting at their heels.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
