In yet another inexplicable play-calling failure, Adam Gase watched rookie RB Kalen Ballage become a man before our very eyes, only to suddenly stop using him.  Only Adam Gase pours water on his own red hot players.   It makes us angry when Gase does this, but it infuriates us when he does it weekly. So starting late in the second quarter, Gase (rightfully) kept calling Ballage’s number.   He picked up first downs on normal rushes.   He picked up big chunks from the wildcat.  He made the right calls in his options, handing off to Kenyan Drake for big gains.  Down 7-21, we rode Ballage all theRead More →

Join our Chat today!!   Last season, the Minnesota Vikings were in the NFC Championship, right on the precipice of making it to the Super Bowl   QB Case Keenum had led them on a Cinderella season, including a miraculous last-second win in the playoffs the week before. They came up a bit short.  Keenum’s reward?  How did the Vikings show their gratitude for their best showing in decades?   They got rid of Keenum.  It was a Dolphin-like move to say the least. To make matters worse, they brought in Kirk Cousins from Washington, a QB with zero accomplishments, so-so statistics, and a lot of baggage. Read More →

No matter what the Dolphins do to help the rest of the AFC, no one wants to take advantage and bury the Patriots’ chances. The Chiefs got rid of 80% of their offense when they cut Kareem Hunt.   Since then, they got a lucky O.T. victory, followed by a crushing loss where they couldn’t hold a 14-point lead with a few minutes left. The Patriots have the Steelers next, and only the “pundits” say that will be a good game.   Dolphins Truth says the Pats will win by 24, on their way to securing yet another first-round bye.   They ain’t going anywhere, folks!Read More →

Let’s feel good about the miraculous hook-and-lateral(s) play that won the game.  Okay, it feels good.  So even on a day when Kenny Stills decided to kneel down in the middle of a play instead of only kneeling down during our National Anthem, we won the game. Now let’s see why we really won.  With 16 seconds left in the game and the Patriots facing a 4th and goal from our TWO YARD LINE, Bill Belichik decided to kick a field goal.  He didn’t need it.   All he had to do was have Sony Michelle Obama dive forward.  The way our D was playing, heRead More →

Click here to join our LIVE Game Day Chat! Well, our wish of hiring Mike McCarthy has (as expected) come and gone.   Why on earth would Stephen Ross want to hire a Super Bowl-winning coach when instead he can hire an inexperienced, arrogant prick who dreams of winning a Super Bowl?  That’s who we’re stuck with in “QB Genius” Adam Gase. Defeating the Patriots is not as hard as it seems.  You need to rush and pressure Tom Brady.   Rushing 3 men and dropping 8 back into coverage does not work.   ATTENTION MATT BURKE.   Last week, we tried that, and we did a great jobRead More →

After watching Arrogant Adam Gase barely and luckily squeak by one of the worst teams in the NFL, it’s time–more than ever–to fire him. The man has no answers.  The jokers he hires are even worse.   If not for Charles Clay falling down, would Matt Burke still have a job? (the answer is yes, because he’s Gase’s pal). I am always interested in hiring Super Bowl-winning coaches, no matter what.  If only Stephen Ross thought like myself and thought like a winner.Read More →

LIVE CHAT TODAY It seems quite a stretch for the Dolphins to make the playoffs this season, and so hoping for a better draft pick is not a horrible thing to do. But not today.   Not against the Bills.   Not against a divisional rival. Bills’ fans are utter garbage.  I know most of my readers hate the Jets and Patriots more, but for me it has always been Buffalo. They are the type of fans who relish and rejoice from losing FOUR STRAIGHT Super Bowls.  They act like “getting there” is an accomplishment.  Uhhh, no.   You lost.  Repeatedly. They think Jim Kelly deserves to beRead More →

An unrelenting barrage of excuses spewed forth from Arrogant Adam’s mouth this week. While we’ve heard the same excuses for three years now, something seemed different this time around. It seemed a little different because Gase had to defend his improper calls more than usual. Instead of asking him typical softball questions like, “How is Ryan’s shoulder doing,” reporters finally started to ask him about the specific play calls that lost us the game. And Gase didn’t like it. Unfortunately, it seems that men like Stephen Ross believe the excuses, and thus Gase gets away with it. In addition, even when reporters try to pressRead More →

Even when the Miami Herald and Adam Beasley blame Adam Gase’s playcalling in their HEADLINE for why we lost today’s game, they don’t emphasize it as much as they should. Beasley blames the defense too, which didn’t play well but held the Colts to under 28 (for the first time in over a month), had three turnovers, blocked a punt and had a part in making Adam Vinatieri miss a field goal.  Also, they sacked Andrew Luck, something no team has done in 2 months.   So while the defense gave up 3 touchdowns, don’t you dare blame them.  They played well enough to win.  No,Read More →

For the second game in a row, the league has changed the time for a Dolphins road game. It might not be a big deal on paper, but the unfairness of it all compounds when you consider that this stuff never happens to other teams. Logistics are a vital part of planning your week.  Knowing your set schedule in advance–which allows you to you plan practice and travel times–is hugely vital in the NFL.   Each year I report on the schedule when it’s released, and I always mention how ridiculously long it takes the NFL to schedule 16 games.   (MLB, by comparison, has 162 gamesRead More →

Like the Dolphins, I will be taking a Bye week.     I’m actually away for a week or so, but will leave this post up for comments.   Enjoy! I’ll be back for the COLTS game day chat.Read More →

Matt Patricia and Mike Vrabel both beat the Patriots this year by using simple, common sense. When you rush Tom Brady, it works. It’s not that hard. The Dolphins watched the lowly Lions decimate Brady one week, and then the following week Miami did the exact opposite of what Detroit did.    Why should we pressure Brady when instead we can rush 3 guys and let him take his time.   We’ll drop 8 men into coverage, so Brady won’t be able to find anyone, right?   Before you knew it, the Pats were scoring at will against us. A few more teams tried it Miami’s way,Read More →

A bye week.   That gives us 2 weeks instead of 1 to listen to Adam Gase’s excuses. Adam Gase began the game Sunday by calling for a deep, straight-dropback pass that was doomed from the start, forcing Brick Osweiler to throw the ball away, and he barely had time to do even that. But then a funny thing happened.  Frank Gore carried the ball for 39 yards.   He took it again for 4 more yards.  After a quick pass, Kenyan Drake ran the ball for 6 yards.   Then Gore again for 5.  Due to the rushing game, we were at the Green Bay 14.   54Read More →

The toughness and resiliency of the Miami Dolphins’ offensive linemen showed up yet again today, with both Laremy Tunsil and Ju’Wuan James opting out of playing in an important game. Yes, I know leg injuries are serious business, but with these particular injuries–which allowed both men to practice during the week–they were playable.    Just like Josh Sitton and Daniel Kilgore could have played this year instead of opting out. And yet the media (and Adam Gase) keeps claiming that the Dolphins will give their all for Adam Gase.   Have any of you seen this? By the way, backup Ted Larsen is out too.   WeRead More →

Each day that goes by offers more and more proof of how inept Adam Gase is. When questioned about our running game being so poor against the Jets, Gase had this gem of an excuse: When they called running plays to Kenyan Drake:   “We got caught in a couple of coverages that were not ideal.”   “Got caught???”    The very first thing you do when you’re caught in ANYTHING is to get out of it.    Don’t let yourself stay caught.   Better yet, be smarter than the guy who caught you, i.e., avoid getting caught in the first place. “Getting caught” while you’re still inRead More →

On a day when kicker Jason Sanders outscored both offenses combined with 7 of his own points (one more than Jerome Baker). Adam Gase talked about complementary football. If you ever needed proof to believe my assertion about Unqualified Adam, don’t listen to me.  Listen to Gase.   He said the offense complemented the defense.  His words. So when the defense forced multiple three-and-outs, the offense did nothing.   That’s complimentary to Adam Gase. When the defense scored us 7 points on a gorgeous pick-6 from a rookie, the offense returned the favor by going three-and-out the rest of the game.   Complementary football means both units feedRead More →
