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.

      He was so much fun to watch as a player but is a prototypical example of the old "never meet your heroes" adage. Great player, not a great guy.

      Does Bryce deserve credit for game-winning drives?

      By Basbear · Posted

      Look.... if us BY "haters" give credit about his GWDs...... Will the BY stans also have honest discussion about the 55minutes before the last 5 in which BY has put up 9/20 for 78 yards 0 TDs???

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      The way they are handling now is how they should have handled it from the start instead of that you get a series, you a get a series. Let Chuba spell until he had some of his step back.  We definitely could have put a better showing against Buffalo and their weak run defense had we employed the same game plan we did against Green Bay. Saints were determined to stop the run and make Bryce beat them, Atlanta had similar plan and the coaches and Bryce were able to respond.  Rico although didnt have the best rushing game was vital in the passing game and his catch and run help get us into the redzone there at the end of regulation probably should have been a touchdown that out of bounds was a judgement call it wasn't conclusive and thus should have went with the original call on the field.  Roco brings that dawg to the offense that it shorely lacked up until Miami game. Interesting it was his call that help seal the win for us, glad the coaches were listening. Hope they can get a deal done and run it back next year.
