No other explanation for how Stills is handing a free win to the Seahawks.  He must have bet money on Seattle. Even before he dropped the easiest catch in NFL history, he got in Jarvis Landry’s way on THREE different WR screen catches to Landry.   And on the first play of our NFL season, he held a guy. Not to mention the way he spat on our country by not standing for the National Anthem.   I hope we have the phone number for Griff Whalen’s agent.Read More →

It appears that Jay Ajayi has quit the Miami Dolphins.  Or, at least, he has quit on the Miami Dolphins. Numerous reports have surfaced to indicate that Gase has benched Ajayi for our season opener Sunday.  In fact, Ajayi was told to stay home.    He is not in Seattle.  Sources seem to indicate that Ajayi and Gase had words over Gase’s decision to move Ajayi to the second string.   Team sources said Ajayi sulked all week and was extremely upset. As many of you know, Dolphins Truth has been a strong supporter of Ajayi, but we can no longer do so. First ofRead More →

Not sure if it’s good news or bad news, but Dawn Aponte is leaving the Dolphins. She will, however, still be on Stephen Ross’s payroll, as she transitions into his real estate companies. Over the years, I’ve asked hundreds and hundreds of fans of all NFL a funny question.   I always ask them if they know the person in charge of their team’s finances.  They usually answer with the owner’s name.   No, I say, I mean the actual employee who does the paper work.   No one ever knows. Except Dolfans.   For some reason, Aponte’s name has been in the news theRead More →

There were a few questionable moves as the Dolphins cut down to 53, but there were no great shocks. For Dolphins Truth, the biggest disappointment was that Damien Williams made the team.  He’s had 3 years to prove himself, and for 3 years he’s done nothing.   He drops passes, gains a yard or two at a time, and misses assignments. And let’s never forget the time he fielded a kickoff, dropped it in the end zone, ran out of the end zone, ran back into the end zone, and dove back out…all so the Dolphins cold start a drive on their one-yard line andRead More →

Is anyone at the game or knows someone there?  Please send in your comments about the new stadium, seating, awning, scoreboard, food, Zika…anything.  Very curious about the atmosphere there.   Jay Ajayi just fumbled away his starting job.   Congratulations to Arian Foster. Why not have some fun from our own 45 and go for it on 4th?   Does our punter really need that much more practice than our backup linemen? Xavien Howard just got neat for a first down.     Good thing he is finally back form injury and ready to stop passes, right?! Tony Lippett, on the bubble and fighting forRead More →

Like many of you, we at Dolphins Truth were hesitant at first when the Dolphins hired Adam Gase.  He was not on our radar for head coach, and we definitely wanted to hire a coach with experience and a championship under his belt. And while he’s still never coached his first game yet, we’re seeing things in him that are starting to win us over and give us a little confidence. First of all, his youth and modern thinking could be an asset.  There was a time in the NFL when the shotgun formation was a new marvel.  When a cover-2 D or a zone blitz were innovative. Read More →

UPDATE:    So the non-football injury list is a reserve list, meaning that Jordan and Vigil are not eligible to play until Week 7.    It looks like Vigil has a back injury, and Jordan has numerous injuries, including judgment, maturity, etc.    I’m not sure how the Dolphins are able to call these non-physical injuries, but it has to do with wanting to keep them on the roster without wanted to I.R. them for the entire season.    The Dion Jordan saga continues… Projected starters Kenny Still, DeVante Parker, and Laremy Tunsil were all injured at practice Monday, but as of now, the injuries areRead More →

Mark your calendars for November 27.    That’s the date when ungrateful spoiled punk Colin Kaepernick comes to town.  I suggest us fans all give him a warm Miami welcome. But  I hope the Dolphins defense welcomes him even more. I think pounding his head into the turf a few times would be a warm welcome, don’t ya think?  That would definitely be worth a 15-yard penalty.  Or two. And then, if he’s dumb enough to get back up, then we can see how strong his oppressed knees are. That being said, I doubt Kaepernick will be healthy come November 27.   Too many other teamsRead More →

While the Dolphins writers and less-educated fans are raving about how great our offense looked in the third preseason game against Atlanta, Dolphins Truth readers have come to expect a little more.  Our readers expect honest analysis. That’s why I hate to burst everyone’s bubble, but the offense didn’t do as well as some writers want us to believe.   The only stat that matters is Points.   And our starting offense scored only 7 points against a horrible Atlanta defense, a defense which began resting its starters while our first-team O was still out there. When you score only 7 points in a half, it’sRead More →

Starting center Mike Pouncey is expected to miss at least the opening game against the Seahawks, further exposing the Dolphins offensive line inadequacies and testing its depth right off the bat. This means that the Seahawks might beat us 50-10 instead of only 40-14.  Either way, we’re gonna get destroyed, but without Pouncey it will be worse. The Dallas preseason game was worse that it looked, with a lot of false hope because our offense scored 2 touchdowns.    Whoop di doo. You have to remember that they had 4 drives.  Only the first drive was against the Cowboys’ full lineup of starters.   AgainstRead More →

The offensive line looked like garbage on Friday night, but Dolphins management addressed that issue by…letting us pay for parking in a new way, If the Dolphins spent more time worrying about the players on the field and less time worrying  about a stadium that will be mostly empty on Sundays, we might have a chance. How about this:   no stadium upgrades or parking lot news until we’re on our way to being a winner. THEN is the time to worry about minutia.  Not before.  We haven’t fielded aRead More →

While every other Dolphins article this weekend is telling fans not to panic, and telling us that it was only a pres-season game, and telling us that you cannot judge an offense by a few plays….while everyone else is saying all that…I will tell you they are wrong.  It IS time to panic. It cannot and will not get any better.   We saw our 5 best O-linemen out there Friday, and you saw what happened. The offense is abysmal.  Time to start looking at the 2017 draft class, because we are closer to the #1 overall pick than we are to a playoff spot.Read More →

Not sure if it’s good news or bad news, but he’s back. The NFL thumbed its noce at the Dolphins and Stephen Ross by waiting until the last possible day to announce this.   Literally, the NFL made us go through the draft, and free agency, and the beginning of camp today, before finally letting us know.   Thanks a lot. Anyway, I am curious to know your guys’ opinions on Dion the potential player, Dion the person (the drug use; apparently is was ecstasy and not steroids), and how he should be handled in games.  Or cut? Let us know…Read More →

As many of you know, the NFL has not officially determined if Dion Jordan is allowed to play this year. While he was suspended for a year and served that year, apparently the NFL still has to clear him.    Like a prisoner who is sentenced to a year and then serves his year, the judge can then keep him and his family in suspense and may decide to change his mind.   Okay, that last part was sarcastic; it’s based on the absurdly inconsistent guidelines the NFL has toward punishments. The thing that bothers me most is that the Dolphins don’t seem to care.Read More →

A Seahawks blog is already predicting that Seattle will beat the Dolphins in Week 1, and I really can’t argue with it. The Hawks are an elite team, facing the ever-changing, never-gelling Miami Dolphins.   It could be a bloodbath.  On opening day, every one of our offensive lineman will have someone next to him who he never played with before.  Meanwhile, Seattle’s fearsome defense has been together and knows all there is to know.   It’s gonna be ugly. Welcome to the NFL Mr. Laremy Pothead Tunsil. Except for the Super Bowl when Pete Carroll handed a free victory to New England, Russell WilsonRead More →

The Dolphins’ backfield just got a little more crowded heading into training camp, with the addition of Houston Texan Arian Foster. Foster gets hurt more often than Knowshon Moreno ever did, so let’s home he has a productive year.  It’s only a one-year deal, and it must have come cheap, because no one else wanted Foster. If Ajayi and the rookies do well in camp, it might turn out that Foster is a just a guy to use up minutes in the pre-season, when we don’t want our real RBs to get injured in the second half of those meaningless games while running behind 5thRead More →

I guess no news is good news. Dion Jordan didn’t get re-re-re-suspended.  The team didn’t announce any London “home” games or similar stupidity.  No one was indicted.    No one’s wife mouthed off. It’s good news for the Dolphins when we hear nothing about them.  Even from us at Dolphins Truth. So as we get ready for full training camp, here are a few of our thoughts overt the past few months, The funniest thing I’ve been reading is how the Dolphins are gonna have an attacking defense, and the offense  has a new system that will make it more fast-paced.   Neither of thoseRead More →
