Woof. I watched that game. The Dolphins really are that bad. So bad that for all the praise that the Ravens got last night, I've got to wonder if we just saw them successfully punching their way out of a paper bag. 

 

Ravens could have piled it on if they wanted to but they basically hit the brakes in the 3rd.

The funny part is that the Dolphins missed a 35 yard FG, had a turnover in the red zone and didn’t get a 4th and 2 in the red zone. They also had a BS tripping call on a pass that wiped out a Waddle reception to the Baltimore 7 yard line.

28-18 if they just got FGs on those red zone drives/aborted drives. Some better play calls and it could have easily been a game. Again, I think the Ravens could have scored more if needed, but the Dolphins (and refs) blew a lot of scoring opportunities last night.

I concur. The fish were close, yet so far. I really learned nothing new about the Ravens last night. I don't know if they're improving, or if they're just a sucky team this season largely living off of reputation.

I read it in the Athletic, they said coach was safe for the season. Probably gone then though. 

Yeah, right now there needs to be a culture shift there. I think the coach lost the lead roll in that a while back and there has been a vacuum there since the real team lead went on IR.

And if you don't know what I mean, it was the guy that once ran his sports car away from the cops to the team facilities rather than get a speeding and reckless driving ticket. And somehow got away with it, with no repercussions.

I didn’t know what you meant so, that was needed. Yeah that kind of culture is pretty toxic.  
If the HC is an offensive genius, okay, but he is a very weird duck. I saw him answering some questions a couple of years ago and he just didn’t seem like the head coach type. Off the wall answers.

When you’re supposed to be an offensive guru type hc and your offense stinks, you’re in trouble. Just like Ron’s time was up here once the defense sucked.

But is it McDaniel or Tua?

I haven't watched enough Dolphins football this season to have an opinion.

(thank God) 🤢

Defense sucked because tepper made him switch to a 3 4 neutralizing a ball of fame MLB and making him retire. fug you Dave

      Evero HC requests!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Evero to the Raiders makes zero sense unless the OC he's pitching them is a failed HC who doesn't have interest in trying for it again. They're a team about to draft a QB #1 overall, developing him is job #1 for the new coach/staff.  Hiring a DC with a young up and coming OC wouldn't make any sense, because then you risk losing that OC to a HC job after maybe just a year or two and that young QB has to change system, play caller, etc. It's why hiring an offensive minded coach makes the only sense.  The Raiders have to make the right hire/pick with this HC hire and #1 pick combo because of that division they're in, it's a gauntlet and you can't screw up this opportunity.

      Very intrigued how Morgan and Canales handle the offseason

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      1. Sadly, it's just too early to tell with Icky. And the draft will have come and gone before we have anything, FA, too probably. Njiman was good, but there's dollars to be invested there as well. This is really our biggest puzzle to figure out. And Moton on the other flank is getting long in the tooth, too.  2. Coker: Pay the man WR2 money.  3. Most WRs take three years before you really know what you've got. We'll know for sure by the end of this one and he's still on a relatively inexpensive rookie contract. Now if someone comes calling for a good, good trade... 4. This is the make or break for good teams vs bad teams. And depth development is essential. We've had a bit of that but there isn't a spot on our line that doesn't have worries except for maybe on guard.  5. I think you draft the best ILB, the smartest one in the first round and don't look back. People lost their poo here on this board when we "wasted" a pick on Luke Kuechly.  6. Yeah, I think Chuba is a workhorse. But we need to be more decisive in his use. Still not sure Rico doesn't come back next season, too. He'll get to see the marketplace first, though, and we'll offer similar numbers to him.

      I've grown to enjoy Mike & Tripp, even more so after listening to the ESPN, TNT, TBS hacks who, for whatever reason, seemingly don't know dick about the Canes.
