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…

George Kittle signs 5 yr, $75M extension with 49ers
You hate to compare a current player to former stars. Especially to hall of famers or sure to be hall of famers. It is usually premature. But in this case I believe it is apt. George kittle is this generations Rob Gronkowski. Gronkowski in turn was his generations Kellen Winslow. All three are phenomenal athletes,…
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…
Miami Dolphins Draft: Will it take a trade to get their QB?
All year long. Everywhere you look. The smart money is on the Miami Dolphins picking a quarterback with their first pick in the 2020 NFL draft. Before the 2019 season started everyone had the Dolphins picking the quarterback this year. All year long the entire “tank” narrative was built around Miami putting them in a…
All the Jordon Love love
6 ft 4. 224 lbs. Good arm, nice release. Looking at Jordan Love you see everything you think you would want from a quarterback. He checks all the boxes. During the 2016 draft you could say much the same about Paxton Lynch, he was taken by the Denver Broncos. Just looking the part is not…
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…
Quarterback Quandary
Heading into the third preseason game we still do not have any better handle of who will start at Quarterback for the Miami Dolphins season opener, Josh Rosen or Ryan Fitzpatrick. All we really know is that veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is pencilled in to start this game. I normally that would lead one to…
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…
