Quarterback Limitations

So much time is spent talking about what a quarterback can do. Is he a pocket quarterback? Is he mobile? Can he throw the ball a country mile? All these are valid questions, however, the more important questions are what are his limitations? Even the best quarterbacks have limitations. Much has been made of Tua…

Dolphins should avoid Watson

I started writing this piece a month ago before the Super Bowl. The Texans had just hired their new general manager, DeShaun Watson was clearly unhappy. He had not officially said that he wanted out but everyone could read the tea leaves. So of course just like every other off-season for seemingly the last two…

Robert Saleh is the new head coach of the New York Jets

Late Thursday night it was announced that Robert Saleh, former defensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers, would become the next head coach for the New York Jets. He replaces Adam Gase, with Gase it was never a question of if he would be fired but when. He went 9-23 over his two seasons. Saleh…

NFL Draft: Miami Dolphins Day Two

Day one of the 2020 NFL Draft is in the books. It was different. It was a little odd. But with all the coaches, GM’s and sports personalities working from home it still was the NFL draft that we are used to. For the Miami Dolphins it was a busy night. With three picks on…

Kobe Bryant R.I.P.

While watching the Pro Bowl today they broke in to announce the death of Kobe Bryant. I am not here to rehash the tragedy. I just want to talk about the loss. We always think that we have more time. Whether it is an athlete or celebrity that we admire or a family member. We…

Integrity Matters

Cheating is cheating. I cannot believe I have to say this again. Seems just yesterday I was making the same point. But it was not yesterday it was twelve years ago. Twelve years ago when these same New England Patriots were caught illegally videotaping another team. Then it was the 4-12 New York Jets, now…

Tunnel Vision

Since training camp we have known that the 2019 season would be a trying one. One of the youngest rosters in the league and no high profile free agents puts the team in a tough position every Sunday. It was necessary, years of overspending on free agents have not gotten the job done. It was…

The Patriots…Again!?

It is Super Bowl time and once again the New England Patriots are in the big game. It’s frustrating. No matter how they may struggle during the regular season in the end they find their way. This year for instance there is no way on paper they should have gotten past the Los Angeles Chargers…

A Tale of Two Weeks

Before the final play against the New England Patriots I was resigned to Miami’s fate. They had fought to stay in the game but once again I feared they would come up short to these New England Patriots. Seven seconds left, no time outs and nearly seventy yards to go. It was a tall order….

Tannehill is missing something

As we head into another December talk around the Miami Dolphins is once again centered around quarterback Ryan Tannehill. For good or ill he has been the Dolphins quarterback for the better part of the last seven seasons. Results have been mixed to say the least. For whatever reason talk about Tannehill has always strongly…
